Exodus 14:10-14
Excerpted from: Lessons From Unleavened Bread

God promises deliverance from all our trials. But having been raised in this zero-sum game, we can easily blame God for our trials and want to return to the bondage from which we have been delivered. But this is not a zero-sum game with God, and He always makes a way of escape for those who faithfully trust Him to keep His set-apart children moving forward. Here, as they neared the seventh day of their journey, memorialized in the seventh day of Unleavened Bread, Israel looked back at the might of the army of Pharaoh rather than forward, remembering what they were told to focus on: the hand of God that had done all to deliver them. Instead they allowed what was truly in their hearts to drag them back into the Satan-weakening of nations, the system of things, a zero-sum system.

Exodus 14:10-14
Excerpted from: The Unleavened Life Is a Happy Life!

They had all ready forgotten. I do not mean that they had forgotten what happened in Egypt. I mean, they had not forgotten the events of their very recent past, but they had forgotten the lesson of the past. If they had learned the lesson, they would not have been afraid. They would not have actually cursed God by their failure to believe. It would have positively affected their conduct at that time. You see, Egypt should have been a school. The events that involved God's liberation of them from their bondage should have been a learning experience that changed their lives! But it did not.

Exodus 14:10-13
Excerpted from: Leavening: The Types

It seems that they had forgotten what happened in Egypt. They had not really forgotten the events. The events, I am sure were fresh in their mind, but they never either learned, or if they had learned, they forgot the lesson. It's like I said last week: Israel believed that God existed. Israel believed that He had worked in their behalf but somehow or another, it never translated into a faith that will save.

Exodus 14:9-12
Excerpted from: Growing Into Liberty

Moses was not afraid, but he was a man of faith. They were not. So what did they do? When they saw the problem, fear quickly came to mind and it determined their action! Was that the act of someone filled with faith? Moses was the one who was filled with faith and his reaction was not one of fear. He said to "stand still and see the salvation of the Lord."

Exodus 14:9-15
Excerpted from: Pioneers: Our Job Is the Journey

Brethren, please take note. Israel was to keep their focus on the journey, it was their job to move forward!
