BAPTISM AND DELIVERANCE
Text: Exodus 14:1-16, 21-28

Exodus 14:1-16, 21-28
‘Then the LORD gave these instructions to
Moses: “Order the Israelites to turn back
and camp…Then Pharaoh will think, ‘The
Israelites are confused … After this the
Egyptians will know that I am the LORD!”…

Exodus 14:1-16, 21-28
… So Pharaoh harnessed his chariot and called
up his troops. He took with him 600 of Egypt’s
best chariots, along with the rest of the
chariots of Egypt, each with its
commander…so he chased after the people of
Israel, who had left with fists raised in
defiance…

Exodus 14:1-16, 21-28
…The Egyptians chased after them with all
the forces in Pharaoh’s army—all his horses
and chariots, his charioteers, and his
troops…As Pharaoh approached, the people
of Israel looked up and panicked when they
saw the Egyptians overtaking them…

Exodus 14:1-16, 21-28
… They cried out to the LORD, and they said to
Moses, “Why did you bring us out here to die
in the wilderness? Weren’t there enough
graves for us in Egypt? What have you done to
us? Why did you make us leave Egypt? Didn’t
we tell you this would happen while we were
still in Egypt?...

Exodus 14:1-16, 21-28
… We said, ‘Leave us alone! Let us be slaves
to the Egyptians. It’s better to be a slave in
Egypt than a corpse in the wilderness!’”…

Exodus 14:1-16, 21-28
… But Moses told the people, “Don’t be
afraid. Just stand still and watch the LORD
rescue you today. The Egyptians you see
today will never be seen again. The LORD
himself will fight for you. Just stay calm.”…

Exodus 14:1-16, 21-28
… Then the LORD said to Moses, “Why are you
crying out to me? Tell the people to get
moving! Pick up your staff and raise your hand
over the sea. Divide the water so the Israelites
can walk through the middle of the sea on dry
ground. … all Egypt will see my glory and know
that I am the LORD!”…

Exodus 14:1-16, 21-28
… Then Moses raised his hand over the sea,
and the LORD opened up a path through the
water with a strong east wind. The wind blew
all that night, turning the seabed into dry land.
So the people of Israel walked through the
middle of the sea on dry ground, with walls of
water on each side!...

Exodus 14:1-16, 21-28
… Then the Egyptians—all of Pharaoh’s horses,
chariots, and charioteers—chased them into
the middle of the sea. But just before dawn
the LORD looked down on the Egyptian army
from the pillar of fire and cloud, and he threw
their forces into total confusion…

Exodus 14:1-16, 21-28
… He twisted their chariot wheels, making
their chariots difficult to drive. “Let’s get out
of here—away from these Israelites!” the
Egyptians shouted. “The LORD is fighting for
them against Egypt!”…

Exodus 14:1-16, 21-28
… When all the Israelites had reached the
other side, the LORD said to Moses, “Raise
your hand over the sea again. Then the
waters will rush back and cover the
Egyptians and their chariots and
charioteers.” …

Exodus 14:1-16, 21-28
… The Egyptians tried to escape, but the
LORD swept them into the sea. … Of all the
Egyptians who had chased the Israelites into
the sea, not a single one survived.’

"What have we done? We have let the
Israelites go and have lost their services!’

a) Ridicule

wandering around the land in confusion,
hemmed in by the desert.'

Egypt, with officers over all of them.’

the deliverance the LORD will bring you today.
The Egyptians you see today you will never see
again. The LORD will fight for you; you need
only to be still."

sea, and all that night the LORD drove the sea
back with a strong east wind and turned it into
dry land…

… The waters were divided, and the Israelites
went through the sea on dry ground, with a
wall of water on their right and on their left.’

This is what the LORD says-- He who made a way
through the sea, a path through the mighty waters,
who drew out the chariots and horses, the army and
reinforcements together, and they lay there, never
to rise again, extinguished, snuffed out like a wick:’

Isaiah 43:16-17, 18-19
"Forget the former things; do not dwell on the
past. See, I am doing a new thing! Now it
springs up; do you not perceive it? I am
making a way in the desert and streams in the
wasteland.’

Exodus 14:13-14
"Do not be afraid. Stand firm and you will see
the deliverance the LORD will bring you today.
............... The LORD will fight for you; you
need only to be still."

3. Decide to go through the water

"Was it because there were no graves in Egypt
that you brought us to the desert to die? What
have you done to us by bringing us out of
Egypt?

Exodus 14:11-12
‘Didn't we say to you in Egypt, 'Leave us alone;
let us serve the Egyptians'? It would have been
better for us to serve the Egyptians than to die
in the desert!’

Sea as on dry land…’

Baptism requires a step of faith.
