The children of Israel sang a song very similar. When they crossed the Red Sea, they sang “The Song of Moses”: “I will sing to the LORD, for he has triumphed gloriously; the horse and his rider he has thrown into the sea. The LORD is my strength and my song; and He has become my salvation; this is my God, and I will praise Him, my father’s God, and I will exalt Him, The LORD is a man of war; the LORD is his name.” (Ex. 15:1-3)) They sang about God’s power, His majesty, and His holiness. They sang about how the inhabitants of Canaan were all trembling and full of dread and terror because of God’s marvelous works in Egypt. But somehow along the way they had forgotten that song. When they went in to spy out the land, they forgot about the God who had destroyed Egypt and Pharaoh’s armies. They focused on their enemies instead of their God. The lesson for us is simple: Don’t focus on your problems. Focus on God. Keep your eyes on the One who has never failed his faithful servants who called upon his mighty name. The one we sing about, “My God is so big, so strong and so mighty, there’s nothing my God cannot do!” God Bless -Todd
