Exodus 13:1 – 15:27

  • What does God do to let the Israelites know that He “has their back”?
  • How do the Israelites respond to the approaching Egyptians?
  • What does the writer of Hebrews promise the believer (Hebrews 13:5)?

Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, “Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.”

  • How does God route the Egyptian army? What does this song teach you about God?
  • What has God communicated about Himself to the Israelites?
  • What has the news of God’s deliverance of the Israelites from Egyptians done to those living in Canaan?
  • What was Miriam’s role in Israel? What does this tell you about family members and service to the LORD?
  • How does God test the faith of the Israelites?
  • What does this testing reveal about the Egyptians?

PRAYER

Knowing the stories help you remember God’s activity in the past. Ask the Lord to help the stories and the truths found therein to sink down deeper into your heart and mind.
