1 00:00:02,880 --> 00:00:05,760 You've tuned into a mega church. We are people hungry to 2 00:00:05,760 --> 00:00:08,720 encounter God through worship and His Word being witnesses to 3 00:00:08,720 --> 00:00:11,280 the world around us. We pray this teaching blesses 4 00:00:11,280 --> 00:00:13,840 you and trust God will reveal Himself to you in a new way 5 00:00:13,840 --> 00:00:15,800 today. And if you need prayer for 6 00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:18,960 healing or breakthrough, or to find out more about Omega, get 7 00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:21,280 to our website or Facebook page through the links below. 8 00:00:24,120 --> 00:00:26,840 Does anybody know not know the story of Red Sea? 9 00:00:27,160 --> 00:00:30,800 Everybody knows isn't it is the favorite story of every child 10 00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:33,960 because they learn it in the home, they learn in the Sunday 11 00:00:33,960 --> 00:00:36,240 school. It's just an awesome story. 12 00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:40,600 It's a bit over beaten like you are too familiar with it. 13 00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:45,120 So it is very scary to preach on very familiar passages because 14 00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:49,440 everybody knows isn't it so hard, a great difficult job. 15 00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:52,360 But anyway, we will look into that. 16 00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:57,200 What my first question is what does the Red Sea mean in human 17 00:00:57,200 --> 00:01:01,120 experience? What does the Red Sea mean in 18 00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:05,360 human experience? I was thinking about it 19 00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:09,320 yesterday and I wrote it down. It stands for a situation with 20 00:01:09,320 --> 00:01:13,920 an insurmountable obstacle in front of you, an invincible, 21 00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:17,040 unbeatable enemy behind you, and no way out. 22 00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:23,360 Then God makes a way which was not existing before, which never 23 00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:26,280 entered a human brain. No eye has seen, no ear has 24 00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:28,000 heard. Such are the things kept in 25 00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:30,840 store for all of us who believe in Jesus Christ. 26 00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:33,920 It has not entered anybody's mind. 27 00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:39,880 That is how He opens and makes a way for us, and that is opening 28 00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:44,360 a Red Sea for you and for me. You have not thought about it. 29 00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:48,040 You, you, you see the insurmountable problem. 30 00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:50,640 You cannot overcome it. You cannot swim through the Red 31 00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:52,600 Sea. And the bam behind you see the 32 00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:55,400 enemy following you. And you are, you are cornered 33 00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:59,040 and you feel helpless and you feel confused and you feel a 34 00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:01,640 loss of hope. And you say, what's happening in 35 00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:04,600 my life? Is there a God? 36 00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:10,000 And he opens the way, makes a way through the Red Sea, and he 37 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:13,800 opens the way for you. And you walk through it and then 38 00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:17,200 you ask this question, How come I didn't think about it? 39 00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:20,680 No, you cannot think about it. Only He knows what He is going 40 00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:23,520 to do. In the tight spot He opens the 41 00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:26,720 way for you, which no man has ever thought about. 42 00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:34,000 And that is who why we call him Yahweh, God the Lord, because He 43 00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:40,720 is God. The Red Sea stands for present 44 00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:44,320 struggle. We are going through a real 45 00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:47,640 struggle in the present time in the present tense where present 46 00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:52,320 struggle between our past and the future, freedom and liberty. 47 00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:58,080 What God has for you, he is going to give it to you. 48 00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:03,480 And during the worship time, I said before the sundown, God is 49 00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:07,960 going to visit somebody and he will make that way open for you. 50 00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:13,880 The Red Sea is opening for you before the sundown today, and 51 00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:15,960 don't forget to come back next Sunday. 52 00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:19,000 Give the testimony because he is. 53 00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:20,960 When he says he will do, he will do. 54 00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:27,040 He will do it. So Red Sea stands for present 55 00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:30,120 struggle between our past and the future, freedom and liberty. 56 00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:33,800 So what? God has freedom for you in mind. 57 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:38,600 But right now you're standing at the Red Sea and thinking, how am 58 00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:41,960 I going to come through it? How am I going to come through 59 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:44,680 it? No, that's the reason why Red 60 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:48,160 Sea stands for God who makes a way with his no way. 61 00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:52,800 He makes a way, there's no way. I'll tell you briefly a story of 62 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:55,800 me one day. If you are, you are traveling 63 00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:58,840 winter on a holiday to India and then at Chennai. 64 00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:05,640 We were flying to Coimbatore. And then I gave my jacket to see 65 00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:07,520 my and said please keep it for me. 66 00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:12,160 And I went to the toilet and by the time I came out, they were 67 00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:16,160 rushed into the aircraft and she left with my jacket. 68 00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:21,680 And in that jacket was my wallet with my everything in it, my 69 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:25,280 phone and everything in it. Nothing was there in me except 70 00:04:25,280 --> 00:04:30,000 the boarding pass that was in my top pocket in my shirt. 71 00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:32,000 So when I came they are all gone. 72 00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:34,400 And they said you can't go in now. 73 00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:38,120 The bus is already gone to the So what am I going to do? 74 00:04:38,280 --> 00:04:39,800 How am I going to? No, you cannot go. 75 00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:41,120 You had to go by the next flight. 76 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:44,640 So now I want, I was standing there going to the office, 77 00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:47,320 talking to people. They'd say, no, there's no way. 78 00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:49,000 You have to buy a fresh ticket and go. 79 00:04:49,280 --> 00:04:51,200 But where is my wallet? It's not there. 80 00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:53,640 How do I pay for it? No money. 81 00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:58,360 And I only had this passport and the boarding pass. 82 00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:00,640 I don't know why I kept them. That was all that I had. 83 00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:03,200 And I was standing there pleading with them. 84 00:05:03,280 --> 00:05:06,520 And they say people come and tell stories to deceive people 85 00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:08,440 and take money. You know something like this 86 00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:12,120 there we can't trust everybody and buy a ticket for everybody 87 00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:15,640 so you are on your own. So I want to go out so that I 88 00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:18,760 can go back to my friends home and then get the money back and 89 00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:21,040 come back and buy another ticket and travel. 90 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:23,680 But he would not let me go out because I have the boarding 91 00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:27,040 pass. So I can't go out, I can't be 92 00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:31,000 in, I can't go forward. I stood there and said God, you 93 00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:33,200 are a God who makes a way where there is no way. 94 00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:36,800 I believe you now to open the way for me in the name of Jesus. 95 00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:41,200 After some time, one girl, one girl, she was very short and she 96 00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:46,160 came to me and said Sir, I believe you but I'll swipe my 97 00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:49,200 card for you but promise me you'll pay me the money back. 98 00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:52,800 I said sure 100% you will trust me. 99 00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:57,800 I'm not though I'm an Indian, I still get his passport, New 100 00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:00,880 Zealand passport and I stand by my passport. 101 00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:04,080 I'm an honest man and I will pay you back the money. 102 00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:07,760 And she goes inside and talks to the boss and boss comes out and 103 00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:14,120 he says OK I will swipe my card for you and you pay the money 104 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:17,720 100%. Yes I said 100% and he swiped 105 00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:21,120 the card and he gave me the ticket and it came down to it 106 00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:25,520 was supposed to be ₹6000 or ₹10,000 but it came down to only 107 00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:30,720 ₹2500 and why? Because he was not sure I am 108 00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:38,120 going to pay the full money S he bought it as tough price, staff 109 00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:42,040 price, lower price. What the concession they get the 110 00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:45,120 staff get the concession. So he bought me a ticket at 111 00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:49,800 staff price and when I landed there back in Coimbatore, I told 112 00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:52,320 my friend we had to pay the money S Google Pay. 113 00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:55,240 He transferred the money. We paid 3500 more. 114 00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:57,720 So he gave a call. Why did you pay more? 115 00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:00,400 I didn't spend so much. My friend wants you to have it 116 00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:02,360 because you helped him in a difficult time. 117 00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:06,680 This is just a brief explanation of what God can do. 118 00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:10,040 We, we can be in tight spot where there's no way. 119 00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:14,640 But God, our God is awesome God. He's a living 1. 120 00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:16,880 He opens a way where there's no way. 121 00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:18,360 He makes a way where there's no way. 122 00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:20,720 Let's say he makes a way where there's no way. 123 00:07:28,060 --> 00:07:32,780 So the chapter 14 is a key chapter that talks about the 124 00:07:32,900 --> 00:07:36,420 crossing of the Red Sea. Verses 1 to 4 is like a summary 125 00:07:36,660 --> 00:07:39,880 of the whole chapter. Again you revisit the chapter 126 00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:42,440 and more explanation comes into the rest of the chapter. 127 00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:46,560 But first of all was a says the Lord said to Moses, you know 128 00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:49,960 this is the most keyword is the Lord said to Moses. 129 00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:55,160 If we do not have that Lord speaking then we have no Red Sea 130 00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:59,880 opening. Remember revelation is the key. 131 00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:06,600 God's voice is the key for us to experience the miracles. 132 00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:10,040 Do you hear God when you are in a crisis? 133 00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:13,600 If you hear God, the miracle is going to happen, you will come 134 00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:16,600 out of the problem. God said to Moses that's very 135 00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:20,640 key tell the Israelites should turn back and in camp near π 136 00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:23,000 Hahirat between Migdal and the sea. 137 00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:26,880 I wanted to check out this geography and all that, but 138 00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:29,880 there's not enough time. One thing is for a long time 139 00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:32,679 people did not know where exactly these places are. 140 00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:35,120 And now modern research, modern archaeology. 141 00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:40,039 They you can go on YouTube and lookout just put Red Sea 142 00:08:40,039 --> 00:08:42,559 crossing. So many videos will come up 143 00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:46,600 where you will see divers going into the water and you see all 144 00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:49,720 the chariot wheels and axles that are falling on the bottom 145 00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:52,520 of the sea. You can see it now. 146 00:08:52,560 --> 00:08:57,000 So they are able to say this is the spot where they must have 147 00:08:57,000 --> 00:08:59,720 crossed. So you can you can follow it up 148 00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:06,320 and they are to encamp by the sea directly opposite Bal Zafan. 149 00:09:06,680 --> 00:09:10,320 He said turn back. The word they use is turn back. 150 00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:15,480 Why God said to turn back because he wanted to fool the 151 00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:18,440 Egyptians. So they were in a particular 152 00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:20,280 spot. He said, OK turn back, come to 153 00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:24,640 so and so spot where he when he when they came to that spot, 154 00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:30,400 what accent what exactly was happening was they were trapped 155 00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:34,560 by the sea on the one side and the Egyptian, Egyptians pursuing 156 00:09:34,560 --> 00:09:38,920 them on the other side. Does God lead you into trouble 157 00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:42,560 Sometimes If he leads you, he will also lead you out of the 158 00:09:42,560 --> 00:09:45,200 trouble. Remember when Jesus Christ 159 00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:48,040 himself, when he was baptized, he was filled with the Holy 160 00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:51,280 Spirit, driven by the Holy Spirit into wilderness for 161 00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:53,880 fasting and prayer for 40 days and 40 nights. 162 00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:59,440 The Holy Spirit will will drive you into problem and when He 163 00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:01,880 does it, He will also bring you out of the problem. 164 00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:07,840 God ordained fast. God ordained trouble. 165 00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:10,560 Sometimes will bring glory to God. 166 00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:13,520 That is how He leads. That is how He leads. 167 00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:16,280 Does it mean if you are a believer you will not have any 168 00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:17,880 trouble? Sometimes He will lead you into 169 00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:22,560 trouble, but when He leads you to trouble, no for sure He will 170 00:10:22,560 --> 00:10:25,840 bring you out of the trouble. Shall we shout Hallelujah? 171 00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:34,720 OK, Now turning back, the word everybody said turn back is a 172 00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:37,040 very important word in the Scriptures. 173 00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:41,400 You see many times when things have changed for good because it 174 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:44,000 turned back. When Naomi came back with her 175 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:48,720 daughter-in-law, Ruth, she turned back to Bethlehem because 176 00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:50,440 she heard there was bread in Bethlehem. 177 00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:54,600 She came back and you have a big story coming out of that. 178 00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:58,840 When you turn back, there is going to be a breakthrough. 179 00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:02,840 When you turn back to God, there is going to be a solution to 180 00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:05,520 your problem. When you turn back to God, the 181 00:11:05,560 --> 00:11:07,200 Red Sea is going to split for you. 182 00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:11,560 This whole Old Testament, you know when you look at different 183 00:11:11,560 --> 00:11:16,720 stories, they are very symbolic. Why they are symbolic? 184 00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:20,760 The Red Sea itself stands for Jesus Christ of Nazareth. 185 00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:28,440 Did anybody think about it as a Rishi was split, his body was 186 00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:31,880 split so that you can encounter God and see him. 187 00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:35,840 That screen that was hanging between the holy of holies and 188 00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:40,160 the holy holy place, the thick screen that no human can ever be 189 00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:43,200 able to lift it up. The heavy may be 6 inches or 190 00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:45,160 more, no light will penetrate it. 191 00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:49,080 And that was torn from the top of the top, from the top to the 192 00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:54,960 bottom, because an Angel of God and came and just cut through 193 00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:57,400 the screen. Why? 194 00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:00,200 Because the Holy of Holies is now exposed. 195 00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:03,040 Man can access God straight anymore. 196 00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:07,520 There's no barrier anymore. Jesus body was broken that we 197 00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:09,920 may receive revelation in his face. 198 00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:15,200 The revelation of God. The Red Sea stands for Jesus 199 00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:22,600 himself, He stands for Jesus himself, and Moses stands for 200 00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:25,040 the mediator. Like Jesus himself is a 201 00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:27,520 mediator. Moses is a type of Christ. 202 00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:32,680 His life gives us more understanding of Christ, what he 203 00:12:32,680 --> 00:12:35,800 does for us. He stands between God and man 204 00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:38,720 and He speaks for you. He is now seated, brother, and 205 00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:40,600 the Father is interceding for you. 206 00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:44,880 I tell you that should blow away every, every cloud over your 207 00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:47,320 life. Just to know that Jesus is 208 00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:51,640 praying for you should make you feel strong and face any 209 00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:56,080 situation, any situation because he seated by the right hand of 210 00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:57,960 the Father. He is seated by the right hand 211 00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:02,000 of the Father, now victorious over Sydney and Satan and he has 212 00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:04,680 defeated every enemy that is going to touch you. 213 00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:07,000 He has defeated the mall. Nothing. 214 00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:09,600 He did leave. He did not leave one more enemy 215 00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:11,400 to fight. Did not leave one more fight to 216 00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:12,960 fight. He finished it. 217 00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:14,920 That's why he shouted on the cross. 218 00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:23,720 It is finished. It is finished and the Red Sea 219 00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:32,640 stands for the cross because if Egypt stands for Satan, God loot 220 00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:37,600 Satan by the cross, it is a trap for him. 221 00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:43,200 We think that cross is a trap for Jesus Christ. 222 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:48,080 No, it was a trap for the enemy, for Satan, because by that cross 223 00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:50,760 he defeated him and Satan thought he is going to have a 224 00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:53,720 strong hand, he is going to overpower the Son of God, he is 225 00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:56,600 going to defeat the Son of God. He is going to completely subdue 226 00:13:56,600 --> 00:14:00,520 the Son of God, but he did not know that he is going to be 227 00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:05,240 defeated by the same cross. And the Red Sea stands for the 228 00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:09,440 cross because Jesus Christ has not only the Lord not only 229 00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:13,040 defeated the whole Egyptian army, not one was left. 230 00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:15,840 That's what you see in the book in chapter 14 at the end of it 231 00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:23,680 says no one of them survived. That's the defeat is complete. 232 00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:28,760 No one survived after the cross. There is not one demon. 233 00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:34,800 There is no, no, no force of the darkness that can say I have not 234 00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:38,920 been touched by the cross, not the force can say it. 235 00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:42,240 No demon can say it, no principality, power, dominion 236 00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:45,080 can say that they are not defeated anymore. 237 00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:50,160 They know it well because when Crash worked on Earth, they came 238 00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:53,400 running and said have you come to destroy us before our time? 239 00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:56,040 Because they know that judged already. 240 00:14:56,360 --> 00:15:01,120 That Red Sea stands for the cross where the Satan is judged 241 00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:06,560 100%. I tell you, you can't study the 242 00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:10,640 word and be untouched by the word. 243 00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:16,480 You are more than Congress. You are more than Congress. 244 00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:19,760 You don't have to look at Satan and shiver in your boots 245 00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:22,240 anymore. Why he has been defeated. 246 00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:26,960 The dragon, the old serpent is defeated, Satan our devil is 247 00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:29,200 defeated, Principalities, powers, rules of ducks are 248 00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:31,680 defeated, and wickedness High place is defeated. 249 00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:34,840 Snakes Coffin all the father enemy is defeated. 250 00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:38,400 That's the reason why if you understand the story of the Red 251 00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:42,400 Sea, you can stamp under your feet Snakes coffin all the 252 00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:46,680 father enemy. That is Gods purpose for you and 253 00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:50,400 me to trample down Snake Coffin all the father enemy. 254 00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:56,600 No sickness, no defeat, no loss of Job, no situation is going to 255 00:15:57,200 --> 00:16:00,920 destroy you anymore. They have no power to touch you. 256 00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:10,800 They have no power to touch you. And now he hardened the heart of 257 00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:13,200 Pharaoh to pursue Israel. Israel. 258 00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:16,800 He came to 600 of his best Chariots and many other Chariots 259 00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:18,960 and soldiers and swords and everything. 260 00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:23,560 But what was happening was there was a pillar of cloud by day, 261 00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:26,240 pillar of fire by night that was standing there. 262 00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:30,800 And when they came nearby, the people of which they looked at 263 00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:34,360 Egyptians said, why have you brought us here there? 264 00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:37,400 Are there no enough graves in Egypt that you brought us here 265 00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:40,560 to kill us in this place? You want to make graves for us 266 00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:44,120 in this place. I tell you that is a language of 267 00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:46,600 unbelief. There's a language of not 268 00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:50,080 knowing who your God is. There's a language of forgetting 269 00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:55,000 your past experiences. You forgot God is giving you so 270 00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:57,800 many miracles. He did how He set you free by 271 00:16:57,800 --> 00:16:59,760 sending the 10th place. You forgot it. 272 00:16:59,920 --> 00:17:03,280 He has accomplished a salvation with His mighty hand. 273 00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:07,160 We forget it so quickly. We have amnesia, forgetfulness, 274 00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:11,200 spiritual forgetfulness, we forget what God has done. 275 00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:16,319 Look at your own life now, the all your past and you will see 276 00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:20,079 Gods hand so many times rescuing you, providing for you, opening 277 00:17:20,079 --> 00:17:22,760 the way for you, because he is the living God. 278 00:17:25,280 --> 00:17:31,160 So in verse 1211 it says they said to Moses, was it because 279 00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:33,440 there were no graves in Egypt that you brought us to the 280 00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:35,920 desert to die? What have you done to us by 281 00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:39,800 bringing us out of Egypt? Didn't we say to you in Egypt, 282 00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:44,160 Leave us alone, let us show the Egyptians. 283 00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:49,880 I tell you that is a spirit of the world, governing, 284 00:17:49,880 --> 00:18:00,840 controlling the human nature. When I don't know where I have 285 00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:03,480 written it now in my notes, I will come back to it. 286 00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:09,400 So here it is. Didn't we say to you in Egypt, 287 00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:12,360 leave us alone? They didn't want, they did not 288 00:18:12,360 --> 00:18:14,640 want to come out. How many of us really wanted to 289 00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:20,160 be saved? No, we did not want to be saved. 290 00:18:20,560 --> 00:18:23,480 We resist the grace of God. We resist the revelation of 291 00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:26,000 Christ. We did not want to be saved, but 292 00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:31,920 He saved us in spite of it. And how many of us want to go 293 00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:35,080 back? How many of us want to go back? 294 00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:41,800 We want to sin and enjoy sin. And just like a swine, just like 295 00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:44,640 the pigs, they like to wallow in the mud. 296 00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:51,720 We have gone, I have gone, but God is still merciful. 297 00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:55,440 He wants to bring, bring us out, basically. 298 00:18:56,600 --> 00:19:02,320 So I return down here. I want to ask a question this 299 00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:04,800 morning. What is your Red Sea in life? 300 00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:10,160 What is your Red Sea? I want you to cross, walk 301 00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:13,520 through the Red Sea in your life and go to the other side. 302 00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:16,120 What is the Red Sea in your life? 303 00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:20,560 You look at the Red Sea and make some proclamation, make some 304 00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:25,360 declaration, Say to the Red Sea. I identify your Red Sea and say 305 00:19:25,360 --> 00:19:29,000 to it, I am not afraid of you. You will give way to me. 306 00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:32,120 I will go through you successfully, since my Lord will 307 00:19:32,120 --> 00:19:33,680 make a way where there is no way. 308 00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:38,440 Look at your problem this morning, look at his eyes and 309 00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:40,920 say, I am not threatened by you. I am not afraid of you. 310 00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:42,880 I am not defeated by you. Why? 311 00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:49,360 Because God is my Savior. So shall we say I am not afraid 312 00:19:49,360 --> 00:19:53,840 of you. In your mind, hold that problem 313 00:19:53,840 --> 00:19:57,280 that is threatening you and tell that problem I am not afraid of 314 00:19:57,280 --> 00:20:00,360 you. Say you will give way to me. 315 00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:03,600 Say it loud, you will give way to me. 316 00:20:05,120 --> 00:20:10,040 I will go through you successfully since my Lord will 317 00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:15,320 break a way where there is no way. 318 00:20:17,360 --> 00:20:19,680 Guys, there has to be conviction when you say it. 319 00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:23,640 OK, I want to hear it loud and clear this time. 320 00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:26,360 Let's do it again. I will go through you 321 00:20:26,360 --> 00:20:33,280 successfully since my Lord will break a way where there is no 322 00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:38,200 way. You will be on the other side 323 00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:45,160 before the end of the day. The Lord is not surprised by 324 00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:49,760 your impossible situations. A believer stature is formed not 325 00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:52,840 in comfortable places, but by passing through the Red Sea 326 00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:55,240 where only God can help and save. 327 00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:59,240 Your stature is proportional to the enemy you overcome, just 328 00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:03,160 like by killing a Goliath. Small David stature increase 329 00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:07,240 more bigger than the size of a Goliath inspired. 330 00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:10,880 It inspired a whole nation and many generations. 331 00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:14,120 It triggers every child's imagination and every seasoned 332 00:21:14,120 --> 00:21:17,120 Christian warrior. What is your experience? 333 00:21:17,120 --> 00:21:20,280 What is your experience of Red Sea? 334 00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:22,960 Has the Red Sea swallowed you or have you crossed through the Red 335 00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:27,480 Sea? That destiny of being swallowed 336 00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:33,040 is for the Pharaoh and his army. It is for the devil and his 337 00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:37,440 foreign angels. It is not for us, not for us. 338 00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:40,160 We are more than Congress. Let us declare it. 339 00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:45,840 We are more than Congress mindset of the devil. 340 00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:48,880 How do you know how devil thinks? 341 00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:53,080 There is a poet by name John Milton and he wrote Paradise 342 00:21:53,080 --> 00:21:57,400 Lost in the book 1 he says the the devil is encouraging the 343 00:21:57,400 --> 00:21:59,640 fallen angels. What is he telling to them? 344 00:21:59,840 --> 00:22:04,360 He says it is better to reign in hell than to serve in heaven. 345 00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:10,840 It is better to reign in hell than to serve in heaven. 346 00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:13,280 And what is the believer going to do? 347 00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:15,840 Believers are not having a mind. They also have their own 348 00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:17,960 mindset. They should have a believers who 349 00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:19,640 are not having the spirit to overcome. 350 00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:22,680 Have a mindset, keep the status quo and serve the devil. 351 00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:26,920 What they were telling Moses. Why did you bring us from there? 352 00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:29,520 Did you not tell you we want to be in Egypt? 353 00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:31,600 Did you not tell you we are happy there? 354 00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:36,120 Why did you bring us from there? That is the mindset of the devil 355 00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:39,480 which has overtaken the minds of the believers. 356 00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:42,760 It is like Peter saying 1 moment he says you are the son of the 357 00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:45,760 living God and next time when he says son of man will betrayed, 358 00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:47,200 he will be crucified, he will be raised up. 359 00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:50,080 On the third day he pray takes him behind to the side and says 360 00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:51,960 no this is not going to happen to you. 361 00:22:53,120 --> 00:22:54,480 It is not going to happen to you. 362 00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:57,600 That is the mind of the devil. That's the reason why Jesus can 363 00:22:57,600 --> 00:23:02,720 see through the Peters heart and say you devil, get behind me. 364 00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:07,360 We ought to be having that those kind of moments. 365 00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:10,240 We have to have those kind of moments. 366 00:23:12,360 --> 00:23:16,080 The mindset of believer should be why should I tolerate what 367 00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:20,560 Jesus my Lord has defeated? What should be our mindset? 368 00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:25,280 Why should I tolerate what Jesus has defeated? 369 00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:33,040 That should be our mindset. What they see is the Egyptian 370 00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:36,000 army, what God promised his deliverance. 371 00:23:36,360 --> 00:23:39,920 When we focus on the army, fear takes over our hearts. 372 00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:43,880 Moses said stand still and see the salvation of the Lord. 373 00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:47,920 Learning to stand still is not easy. 374 00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:50,840 Learning to stand still is not easy. 375 00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:54,560 This distinguishes a strong believer from a baby Christian. 376 00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:59,200 How do you know you are a strong Christian when you are not 377 00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:03,640 terrified by the enemy, When you feel not defeated? 378 00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:06,160 Before you go through the whole problem, you already feel 379 00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:09,120 defeated. No, we are not those kind of 380 00:24:09,120 --> 00:24:12,160 people. We had to be standing straight 381 00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:16,240 and standing still is not something new. 382 00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:18,920 You will see through the scriptures many places. 383 00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:23,720 When Jehoshaphat had to fight the army, what did he say to the 384 00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:26,480 army? Stand still and see the solution 385 00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:28,880 of God. You don't have to do anything. 386 00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:31,560 You don't have to lift your sword and kill an enemy. 387 00:24:31,680 --> 00:24:36,320 They will be killed before you kill them, before you fight 388 00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:49,370 them, they are finished. And the Red Sea stands for many 389 00:24:49,370 --> 00:24:52,130 things in the Scripture. One of the things is it stands 390 00:24:52,130 --> 00:24:55,770 for the baptism. They when they walked through 391 00:24:55,770 --> 00:24:59,250 the Red Sea, they were all baptized into Moses and into the 392 00:24:59,250 --> 00:25:02,290 cloud. They are baptized into Moses and 393 00:25:02,290 --> 00:25:05,960 the cloud that followed them. Red Sea experience can be 394 00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:08,680 compared to baptism. 1 Corresis 10 verses one and two. 395 00:25:09,120 --> 00:25:15,080 Secondly, Red Sea stands for death to self and a new 396 00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:19,280 identity. Death to self and a new 397 00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:21,480 identity. When you go through the Red Sea, 398 00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:23,960 you come out on the other side. You have a new identity. 399 00:25:24,920 --> 00:25:29,080 You were slaves in Egypt. Set free and you cross the Red 400 00:25:29,080 --> 00:25:31,040 Sea. You walk into your promised 401 00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:34,840 land, the liberty, the blessing of God, promises of God. 402 00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:37,960 So that is what God wants you to enjoy today. 403 00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:41,720 I could have told a story like in a Sunday school, but I 404 00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:44,800 thought I will not do that. I want to give you some meat 405 00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:47,720 this morning. I want to give you some strong 406 00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:51,560 food S that you will become and become mighty soldiers for God. 407 00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:56,200 That's my purpose, basically a demand to forget the past. 408 00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:58,200 Thirdly, stands for walking by faith. 409 00:25:58,360 --> 00:26:01,840 Hebrews 11/29 says by faith the people pass through the Red Sea 410 00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:05,120 as on dry land, but when Egyptians tried to do so, they 411 00:26:05,120 --> 00:26:10,400 were drowned. The Red Sea is a blessing to the 412 00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:14,680 Israelites, but a curse to the Egyptians. 413 00:26:15,160 --> 00:26:18,400 It's salvation to the Israelites but destruction for Egypt. 414 00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:22,680 The cross is salvation to the Sinner, but the destruction for 415 00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:24,120 the devil and his foreign angels. 416 00:26:24,800 --> 00:26:28,520 That is how it is my friends, all over the Scripture you see 417 00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:32,280 God salvation coming through and they will being judged every 418 00:26:32,280 --> 00:26:37,840 time. Let your life save you and judge 419 00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:42,880 the devil and condemn him because that is the that is the 420 00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:47,040 inheritance of the Saints. That's your inheritance in Jesus 421 00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:49,320 Christ. He wants you to be victorious. 422 00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:53,720 He wants you to walk in power. Victory over enemies, Victory of 423 00:26:53,720 --> 00:26:57,760 Jesus Christ over sin and death. Egyptian drowning of the 424 00:26:57,760 --> 00:27:00,360 Egyptian army is compared to Christ victory over spiritual 425 00:27:00,360 --> 00:27:02,880 forces. Christ victory over spiritual 426 00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:05,960 force. How do we know the this is just 427 00:27:05,960 --> 00:27:08,000 a story? It is embedded in human 428 00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:10,560 experience. Experience of 1 nation called 429 00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:13,720 Israelites. The Hebrews and their story is 430 00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:17,720 the story of Jesus and your life story is the story of Jesus. 431 00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:23,920 Your testimony, it has power. So don't underestimate your 432 00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:25,960 testimony. What is your experience of 433 00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:27,920 Christ? Open your mouth or share. 434 00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:30,240 It is going to touch somebody's heart. 435 00:27:31,080 --> 00:27:36,120 Go touch somebody's heart. Exodus 1411 and verses 11 and 436 00:27:36,120 --> 00:27:41,040 12. It says here after 400 years of 437 00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:43,040 living in Egypt, they are not one or two years. 438 00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:46,600 They lived there for 400 years and they became slaves in Egypt. 439 00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:51,240 After 400 years of Egypt, Egypt became a part of DNF Israelites. 440 00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:57,080 It became a part of DNA. They have Egypt in their nose. 441 00:27:57,200 --> 00:28:00,000 They have Egypt in their flesh. They have Egypt with their 442 00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:02,840 emotions. And now listen to me. 443 00:28:03,440 --> 00:28:06,960 Christians may deny they still carry old DNA into their 444 00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:08,520 present. No, no, no. 445 00:28:08,520 --> 00:28:10,640 I have a believer. Nothing of the old is there in 446 00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:13,760 me anymore. No, no, no, after we are born 447 00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:17,600 again, when the old life pulls us strongly, it stops us from 448 00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:20,240 making a jump of faith. When we forget the pain and the 449 00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:23,160 lessons we learned, particularly when we want to go back to the 450 00:28:23,160 --> 00:28:26,120 old things we left behind and the attraction becomes too 451 00:28:26,120 --> 00:28:29,160 strong. Brothers and sisters, we have 452 00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:32,840 the DNA strongly embedded in US. The garlic, the onions, the 453 00:28:32,840 --> 00:28:35,720 leeks and the fish satisfy just that moment. 454 00:28:35,920 --> 00:28:39,080 That's why we need to hear the voice of the one who said man 455 00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:41,680 shall not leave a bread alone. But by every word that pushes in 456 00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:46,360 the mouth of God that this DNA of all life because weak and 457 00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:49,560 fades away in proportion to obedience to the Lord and being 458 00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:51,840 set on fire with His will for life. 459 00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:57,160 The old DNA must go up into flames and be blown away by the 460 00:28:57,160 --> 00:29:03,000 wind like this ashes on altar. The Red Sea will reveal what 461 00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:07,760 sounds like Egyptian us. The Red Sea will reveal what 462 00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:10,440 sounds like Egyptian us. When you go through problem, 463 00:29:10,760 --> 00:29:19,120 whether you still have old life in you, that will reveal verses 464 00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:24,120 13 and 14. Moses answered the people do not 465 00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:26,600 be afraid. Stand firm and you will see the 466 00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:28,240 deliverance the Lord will bring you today. 467 00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:31,600 Egyptians you see today you will never see again. 468 00:29:31,880 --> 00:29:35,440 The Lord will fight for you. You need only to be still. 469 00:29:36,560 --> 00:29:40,400 You need only to be still. You don't need to work hard. 470 00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:45,240 Its not about striving, its not about working too hard, its not 471 00:29:45,240 --> 00:29:47,160 about taking up the sword and fighting the enemy. 472 00:29:47,240 --> 00:29:50,200 No, you just need to stand still. 473 00:29:50,320 --> 00:29:57,200 Everybody say stand still, is it easy job is not easy job because 474 00:29:57,200 --> 00:30:03,320 we are striving, always wanting to fix it, panicking, worrying. 475 00:30:07,040 --> 00:30:11,520 You need only to be still. Stop worrying, stop striving, 476 00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:16,760 stop panicking, stop fixing. You want to fix immediately, you 477 00:30:16,760 --> 00:30:19,400 want to fix. We need to stop that. 478 00:30:21,080 --> 00:30:24,320 Be still. Not acting out of fear or panic, 479 00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:29,720 but standing in faith some for 6/10 says be still and know that 480 00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:34,160 I am God. That's the best word in the 481 00:30:34,160 --> 00:30:38,280 whole of the Bible. Be still and know that I am God. 482 00:30:40,080 --> 00:30:43,840 We need to become still. Second Chronicles 20 and verse 483 00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:45,560 17. You will not have to fight this 484 00:30:45,560 --> 00:30:47,760 battle. Take up your position, stand 485 00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:49,720 firm and see the deliverance the Lord will give you. 486 00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:52,840 Judah and Jerusalem. Do not be afraid, do not be 487 00:30:52,840 --> 00:30:55,760 discouraged. Go out to face them tomorrow and 488 00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:59,480 the Lord will be with you. That's a prophecy by Jahaziel to 489 00:30:59,480 --> 00:31:04,920 Judah and King Joshabad. And in Ephesians 613 therefore 490 00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:09,680 take up the whole armour of God, that you may be able to 491 00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:13,440 withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm, 492 00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:19,480 to stand firm, to stand still. And in Isaiah 79 it says if you 493 00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:22,600 do not stand firm, you will not stand at all. 494 00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:29,000 If you don't learn to stand still and see God's power, we 495 00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:32,760 won't stand at all. We need to learn to stand firm 496 00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:38,920 and faith requires stability. Faith requires stability. 497 00:31:39,560 --> 00:31:50,600 We need to learn to be stable. Moses stretched out his hand. 498 00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:55,960 You see that three times in this chapter 14, verse 21, verse 26, 499 00:31:55,960 --> 00:31:58,840 verse 27, Moses stretched out his hand. 500 00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:00,280 How? Why did he do it? 501 00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:03,360 Because God commanded stretch out your hand. 502 00:32:05,040 --> 00:32:06,920 What is meant by stretching out your hand? 503 00:32:10,800 --> 00:32:13,000 Have you asked this question? What is meant by stretching out 504 00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:17,000 your hand? You are releasing the authority 505 00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:19,840 of God. You are releasing the promise of 506 00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:21,840 God. You are releasing the power of 507 00:32:21,840 --> 00:32:23,640 God when you stretch out your hand. 508 00:32:24,520 --> 00:32:27,040 Why do we touch people when we pray for people? 509 00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:32,000 Because we want God's power to be released into them for 510 00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:35,280 healing, for restoration, for hope to build. 511 00:32:36,040 --> 00:32:39,640 We touch, stretch out a hand. When you stretch your hand, you 512 00:32:39,640 --> 00:32:41,440 are releasing the mighty power of God. 513 00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:44,680 And when He took the staff in his hand, the stands of the 514 00:32:44,680 --> 00:32:47,760 authority of God, and you enforce the authority of God in 515 00:32:47,760 --> 00:32:50,760 the situation that is drowning, threatening you to drown, 516 00:32:50,840 --> 00:32:53,880 threatening to drown you. You stretch that staff, the 517 00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:58,800 authority of God on the problem that is threatening you, and it 518 00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:01,520 will subdue, it will be subdued before you. 519 00:33:04,080 --> 00:33:08,480 In Psalm 23 it says Thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me. 520 00:33:09,280 --> 00:33:13,760 Thy rod stands for the staff that Moses carried and stretched 521 00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:16,120 on the Red Sea, and it split before it. 522 00:33:16,640 --> 00:33:22,040 God caused the east wind to blow on that sea all night, and there 523 00:33:22,040 --> 00:33:28,000 was the sea split into two. Left side is a wall of water, 524 00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:29,680 the right side is a wall of water. 525 00:33:29,920 --> 00:33:34,200 How this wind was blowing and separating the water at the same 526 00:33:34,200 --> 00:33:37,320 time without being blown away? People walked on it. 527 00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:43,280 That's a miracle. If the wind is blowing 300 miles 528 00:33:43,280 --> 00:33:49,360 an hour, can you stand? And I'm sure it was more 529 00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:52,320 powerful than that. The wind was more powerful than 530 00:33:52,320 --> 00:33:58,520 that to drive the water and make a way, but yet when the people 531 00:33:58,520 --> 00:34:02,160 walked they did was they were not falling down because of the 532 00:34:02,160 --> 00:34:04,600 wind speed. That is a miracle. 533 00:34:05,080 --> 00:34:09,360 That is a miracle. So Moser, stretch out his hand 534 00:34:09,679 --> 00:34:13,480 and I, we had to learn to stretch out a hand on problems 535 00:34:13,480 --> 00:34:16,520 of threatening us. We have to stretch out a hand. 536 00:34:16,719 --> 00:34:20,040 When you stretch out a hand, you are proclaiming to the Satan, 537 00:34:20,120 --> 00:34:22,480 you are proclaiming the situation to the devil and of 538 00:34:22,480 --> 00:34:24,880 the fallen angels that they are defeated. 539 00:34:25,199 --> 00:34:27,880 They are defeated and they are going to be subdued and you are 540 00:34:27,880 --> 00:34:31,400 going to come through the waters on the other end successfully, 541 00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:35,280 safely because you are enforcing the authority of God. 542 00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:42,960 We have to learn to walk to the Red Sea all of our life. 543 00:34:42,960 --> 00:34:44,480 We are going to learn. It's not one day. 544 00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:48,639 Every day you see a situation, every day you see a problem. 545 00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:50,679 Every day you see some kind of some something that's 546 00:34:50,679 --> 00:34:52,800 threatening you. You must learn to stretch out a 547 00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:56,280 hand and say in the name of Jesus, who has overcome you, who 548 00:34:56,280 --> 00:34:59,480 has defeated you. I come on that things will cease 549 00:34:59,640 --> 00:35:02,200 to threaten me anymore. They are going to fall flat 550 00:35:02,200 --> 00:35:04,480 before me. You are going to give my you. 551 00:35:04,480 --> 00:35:07,200 You will give me way because Jesus has defeated you. 552 00:35:08,960 --> 00:35:11,520 It is hard job. Standing still is hard job. 553 00:35:14,080 --> 00:35:18,840 And then you see here when we cross through the Red Sea, we 554 00:35:18,840 --> 00:35:24,440 leave behind the past life, the abusers, we suffer, addictions, 555 00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:28,200 we were enslaved, consequences of past life chasing us, threats 556 00:35:28,200 --> 00:35:31,040 of our enemies and the devil that entice us to return. 557 00:35:31,320 --> 00:35:34,640 We just leave behind. You will not see the past 558 00:35:34,640 --> 00:35:37,800 anymore as Jesus Christ dealt with all that stuff and they 559 00:35:37,800 --> 00:35:41,840 cannot rule over us anymore. The dominion is broken, we are 560 00:35:41,840 --> 00:35:44,680 free. Pinch yourself and tell yourself 561 00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:48,040 I am free, I am free. Pinch yourself, you can't 562 00:35:48,040 --> 00:36:07,840 believe it, say I am free. I want to end with the story of 563 00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:12,920 a lady called Corit and Boom. Have you heard her name Corit 564 00:36:12,920 --> 00:36:15,800 and Boom? When you go home, put it in the 565 00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:19,480 YouTube Corit and Boom and you will come across a little 566 00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:23,120 little. They made a movie out of a 567 00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:28,960 biography hiding place. And when that family, Boom 568 00:36:28,960 --> 00:36:34,720 family decided to shelter the Jewish people during the Second 569 00:36:34,720 --> 00:36:38,800 World War, they were Gestapo. One day came to know that these 570 00:36:38,800 --> 00:36:41,240 people are sheltering people. They came, raided them and 571 00:36:41,240 --> 00:36:43,520 arrested them and put them in the concentration camp. 572 00:36:44,760 --> 00:36:51,080 And the living conditions were so bad that Betsy, her sister 573 00:36:51,360 --> 00:36:55,560 died because of sickness. And before she died, what she 574 00:36:55,560 --> 00:37:00,120 said is Betsy death. Cory was suddenly Betsy 575 00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:03,400 prophesied. We must tell people that no 576 00:37:03,400 --> 00:37:08,800 matter how deep the darkness Gods love is deeper still got us 577 00:37:08,920 --> 00:37:11,440 deeper still. Those words were echoing in the 578 00:37:11,440 --> 00:37:14,320 mind of Koritan boom. And she survived that 579 00:37:14,360 --> 00:37:17,680 constitution camp and one day she was released after Bitsy's 580 00:37:17,680 --> 00:37:20,960 death, very suddenly she was released because of a clerical 581 00:37:20,960 --> 00:37:24,920 error. They made a mistake of who 582 00:37:24,920 --> 00:37:27,720 should be released. Somehow there was a mistake and 583 00:37:27,720 --> 00:37:29,640 they came and said, OK, you're going now. 584 00:37:29,640 --> 00:37:34,760 And they released her. God comes through, makes people 585 00:37:34,760 --> 00:37:40,080 make a mistake and made her to be released from the from the, 586 00:37:40,960 --> 00:37:43,160 from the prospect of being put to death. 587 00:37:44,560 --> 00:37:51,920 And then while they were in the in the, in the concentration 588 00:37:51,920 --> 00:37:58,880 camp, they smuggled a Bible with them all the number of months 589 00:37:58,880 --> 00:38:01,680 and years they were in the inside that concentration camp. 590 00:38:02,320 --> 00:38:05,680 Their Bible was never discovered by the Gestapo or anybody. 591 00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:09,840 They had the Bible and they secretly read it and they 592 00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:13,120 started praying for people and they started having lot of women 593 00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:16,200 in the concentration camp coming to know the Lord and they had 594 00:38:16,200 --> 00:38:19,600 worship services in in the jail inside the concentration camp. 595 00:38:20,680 --> 00:38:25,320 Can that happen when the Red Sea is threatening you? 596 00:38:25,840 --> 00:38:27,880 God makes a way through the Red Sea. 597 00:38:28,520 --> 00:38:30,040 He makes a way through the Red Sea. 598 00:38:30,520 --> 00:38:32,680 And then what happened? They held worship services in 599 00:38:32,680 --> 00:38:34,600 the barracks. Women came to crash. 600 00:38:34,680 --> 00:38:37,360 Hope spread in a place designed to crush hope. 601 00:38:37,520 --> 00:38:40,480 Where there was darkness, light came where there was complete 602 00:38:40,480 --> 00:38:46,920 darkness. And then she was set free. 603 00:38:47,680 --> 00:38:50,920 And when she came out, she became a global ambassador for 604 00:38:50,920 --> 00:38:54,120 forgiveness. She had to preach forgiveness. 605 00:38:54,640 --> 00:38:59,120 But those people who tormented her finished off her family. 606 00:38:59,560 --> 00:39:02,080 She had to forgive them and she had to. 607 00:39:02,240 --> 00:39:06,560 She preached this message of forgiveness, which is validated 608 00:39:06,560 --> 00:39:09,640 by her own experience, the cross. 609 00:39:09,720 --> 00:39:12,040 The message of the cross is so powerful. 610 00:39:12,640 --> 00:39:15,840 It becomes more powerful because of your experience. 611 00:39:16,880 --> 00:39:19,960 When you speak, because you have gone through the Red Sea, it 612 00:39:19,960 --> 00:39:24,120 becomes more powerful. Red Sea experience is never 613 00:39:24,120 --> 00:39:26,920 wasted in your life. When He takes you through the 614 00:39:26,920 --> 00:39:30,160 Red Sea, it is never wasted. It is for His glory. 615 00:39:33,760 --> 00:39:37,200 She preached reconciliation in more than 60 countries. 616 00:39:37,600 --> 00:39:41,760 That's almost 1/4 of the world she visited and preached. 617 00:39:42,880 --> 00:39:44,760 She forgave the gods who tortured her. 618 00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:48,240 She carried the message that God delivers even through death. 619 00:39:51,160 --> 00:39:56,120 This morning I just want you to encourage you that do not shut 620 00:39:56,120 --> 00:40:00,240 your heart to the Red Sea. Don't say I don't want to go 621 00:40:00,240 --> 00:40:02,960 through Red Sea, don't say I want to go through Red Sea 622 00:40:02,960 --> 00:40:08,000 either. But when it happens, be strong, 623 00:40:09,160 --> 00:40:12,080 be still, and know that he is God. 624 00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:20,560 Shall we pray? Thank you Jesus, thank you, 625 00:40:20,560 --> 00:40:26,480 Jesus, Thank you Jesus for your word, my Father, in the name of 626 00:40:26,480 --> 00:40:29,560 Jesus.

I pray make them my father like 631 00:40:44,560 --> 00:40:47,880 King Joshua. Without even fighting, they won 632 00:40:47,880 --> 00:40:50,320 the war. Make your children know the 633 00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:53,440 power of staying still and seeing your mighty power come 634 00:40:53,440 --> 00:40:54,960 through and split the sea for them. 635 00:40:57,040 --> 00:41:00,240 What is what is in my heart? There's something that you have 636 00:41:00,240 --> 00:41:03,720 gone through that is too much for you to bear, too much for 637 00:41:03,720 --> 00:41:06,560 you to bear. And you're saying why, why, why 638 00:41:06,560 --> 00:41:10,760 did I have to go through it?

If somebody says now it's too 648 00:41:41,440 --> 00:41:45,880 much for me to bear, but I want God to touch me, just stand up 649 00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:48,240 and come to the front.
