Some people say that this poem by Moses is one of the oldest extant poems in the world. This is an epic to celebrate God's victory. It wants people to sing their hearts out. This poem describes and praises this great and wonderful god! ?

2. miriam and all the women sing 20-2 1?
Miriam is called a prophetess, not only because she gets inspiration from God, but also because she has a talent for music. In the Bible, music and prophecy are often closely related. ? Here we can see the daughter's role in the meeting:
A. Drumming and dancing: 20 knots?
... Miriam, the prophetess of Aaron's sister, held a drum in her hand, and all the women followed her out to dance.
B. Respect God as the greatest: 2 1?
Miriam said, "Sing praises to the LORD, for he has overcome him greatly, and has thrown the horse and its rider into the sea.
* * * The Israelites experienced God's salvation, freed from the slavery and oppression of the Egyptians, moved from death to life, and sang hymns from the bottom of their hearts.
Brothers and sisters: After suffering, we can pour out our comfort, praise and thank God with poems and eulogies.
Scripture: I trust in God, and I will praise his word; I trust in the Lord, and I will praise his word! I believe in God and I'm not afraid. What can others do to me? God, my vows to you are on me, and I will offer you a thank-you offering. (Ps。 56: 10- 12)?
2. Sweetness in field experiment (22-27)?
After crossing the Red Sea, the Israelites set foot on the road to the wilderness. This passage records that they have been to three places, all of which are very meaningful. These are also the three places we Christians will encounter when walking in heaven.
?
1. In Shure-Waterless Land 22?
-Moses led the Israelites from the Red Sea to the wilderness of Shur. They walked in the wilderness for three days and found no water.
-Shuer means "wall". This is a wilderness, on the other side of Egypt. It says here that the congregation of Israel walked in this "wilderness" for three days and found no water.
Similarly, when Christians walk on the road, they often encounter the experience of "Shure" without water. At this time, it is necessary to tear down the "partition wall" to have running water. ?
2. Arriving in Mara-the land of bitter water 23-26?
When the Israelis came to Mara, they met something they had never met before-bitter water.
A. People complain about drinking bitter water: Verses 23-24?
... when you get to Mara, you can't drink the water there. Because the water is bitter, that place is called Mara. And the people grumbled against Moses, saying, What shall we drink?
... "Mara" means "bitterness". The people complained to Moses after they were thirsty, which showed their spiritual failure. ?
B. Moses asked God to change the environment. Section 25?
... Moses cried out to the Lord
……? The way to deal with bitter water is different: the people use resentment; But Moses asked for dharma, which is the best way to change the environment-asking God (Phil. 4:6-7).？
C.25 Bitter water becomes sweet when thrown into the water?
... God showed him a tree, and he threw it into the water, and the water became sweet.
... Moses got instructions from God through prayer, so he did it and put the tree into the water. As a result, the bitter water became sweet.
"Tree" refers to the cross (before 1. 2:24).
* * Today, if we compare the suffering of the Lord's cross with the environment, we will not suffer-bitter water becomes sweet. ?
D. god has made laws and regulations for people. Verses 25-26?
... where the Lord set up laws and regulations for them and tried them there. He said, "If you pay attention to the word of the LORD your God, do what is right in my eyes, pay attention to my commandments, and keep all my statutes, I will not put the diseases I put on the Egyptians on you, for I, the LORD, have healed you. 」
... the lack of fresh water is an experiment. God wants to use this environment to test the trust of the congregation. This "experiment" is another "protocol" As long as you obey all these laws, those who trust in God will be cured and will not get sick. Psalm 34: 22 says that whoever takes refuge in him will not be condemned.
3. Arrive in Yilin-Land of Green Water 27?
... they came to Elim, where there were twelve springs and seventy palm trees, and they camped by the water.
Yilin is an oasis, which is the first shadow of Canaan, where there are two particularly beautiful scenery:
A. There are twelve springs: the thirsty congregation in the wilderness has twelve tribes; There are twelve springs here, just enough for drinking.
* * This means that there is abundant grace in Christ, which is enough for us.
There are seventy palm trees: the Israelites used to like the fiery iron furnace in Egypt (Deuteronomy 4:20). At this time, I arrived in Yilin and met 70 palm trees, which was just cool. So "they camped by the water" and enjoyed the rest from God. 23: 1-2，Ps。 78:52).？
* * * Today? The same is true of God's guidance to Christians. He won't keep us in Mara for long, but one day he will take us to Yilin.
?
Scripture: Therefore, in the temple of God, before his throne, they served him day and night. Those who sit on the throne shall be covered with a tent. They will no longer be hungry or thirsty, and the sun and heat will not hurt them. For the lamb in the throne will feed them and lead them to the fountain of life water, and God will wipe away all their tears. “(Rev. 7: 15- 17)？
