<TITLE>04. Par 25-29</TITLE>L-25 I'm going to read a couple more verses.
And Moses said unto the people, Fear not...
Now listen close here.
... Moses said unto the people, Fear ye not, stand still, and see the salvation of the LORD, which he will show... you to day: for the Egyptians whom ye have seen to day, ye shall see them again no more for ever.
The LORD shall fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace... the LORD said unto Moses, Wherefore criest thou unto me? speak to the children of Israel, that they go forward:
But lift thou up thy rod, and stretch out thine hand over the sea, and divide it: and the children of Israel shall go on dry ground through the midst of the sea.
And I, behold, I will harden the heart of the Egyptians, that they shall follow them: and I will get me honour upon Pharaoh, and upon all of his host, and upon his chariots, and upon his horsemen.
And the Egyptians shall know that I am the LORD, when I have gotten me honour upon Pharaoh, and upon his chariots, and upon his horsemen.
And the angel of God, which went before the camp of Israel, removed and went behind them; and the pillar of the cloud went... before their face, and stood behind them:
And it became between the camp of the Egyptians and the camp of Israel;... it was a cloud of darkness to them, but it gave light by night to these: so that the one come not near the other all the night.
And Moses stretched out his hand over the sea; and the LORD caused the sea to go back by a strong east wind all that night, and made the sea dry land, and the waters were divided.
And the children of Israel went into the midst of the sea upon the dry ground: and the waters were a wall unto them on the right hand, and on the left.
And the Egyptians pursued, and went in after them in the midst of the sea, even all Pharaoh's horses, his chariots, and his horsemen.
And it came to pass, that in the morning watch the LORD looked down unto the host of the Egyptians through the pillar of fire and... the cloud, and troubled the host of the Egyptians,
And took off their chariot wheels, that they drave them heavily: so that the Egyptians said, Let us flee from the face of Israel; for the LORD fights for them and against the Egyptians.

L-26   The Word of the Lord is so great, so good, there just no way to stop reading It. It just becomes Life, as we read It. I think, in this text this morning, though it's being taped, I want to say this in beginning, it finds, I find myself. And the reason that I... Yesterday, while in study, and I come upon this subject, and then I thought, "I'm just going, if the Lord willing, to speak upon that, because it drives me down." And I hope it drives us all down, that we might see, and cause us to look up; and to study a little bit, in comparing the day that was then, the... unto the day that is now.

L-27   I want to take three words for a text, and that is: Why Cry? Speak! God said to Moses, here in the 15th verse, "Why criest thou unto Me? Speak to the people, that they go forward." And: Why Cry? Speak!

L-28 Now, we got quite a subject, and I'll try to hurry through as quick as possible, as the Holy Spirit leads. And I want to think of the... of this text, of Moses crying out to God, in the time of trouble; and God rebuking Moses back, right when trouble was in--in session. And it's just nature, seeming like, for a person to cry out. And then what a--a rebuke it is for God to turn around and rebuke him for saying it, for crying out to Him. It looks like it's a very hard thing.

L-29   Many times when we look at the Scriptures, in our own way of looking, it seems very hard. But if we study It a little while, we find out that the all-wise God knows just what He's doing. And He knows how to do these things and how to deal with man. He knows what's in man. He, He knows him. We don't. We only know from the intellectual side. He knows what's really in the man.
