Get the appDeliverance: A Study In Exodusনমুনা
What does it say?
Moses and the people of Israel stopped to praise God with singing and dancing. The song recounted the miracles they had witnessed throughout the exodus from Egypt.
What does it mean?
Musical expression is a gift from God. It honors the Creator when that gift is used to express love and gratitude for the numerous miracles and blessings He has performed on behalf of an individual, family or community. The people of Israel took the time to look back on their lives and give God credit and praise for the blessings that they had received. They recognized that both their freedom and the ability to express their gratitude through song were gifts from the Lord.
How should I respond?
We, too, should take opportunities to give God the credit He deserves for providing us with the freedom that is available in Christ. This freedom is not something that we earned; it is a gift to us, as was the case with the Israelites. Take a moment to look back on your life. In what ways has God come to your aid? Give Him credit for those blessings, including the freedom from sin that comes through Christ. Is there a song that voices your thoughts and devotion toward the Lord? Sing or hum along in the car or at home – God will be honored, and your heart will be refocused. How will you express your gratitude to the Lord today?
