The Red Sea Experience

Exodus 14 tells us a very powerful story of Gods intervention in the history of his people. We have the house of Israel who just left Egypt and are now encamped along the sea. Then here comes Pharaoh and his chariots and horsemen and troops approaching. The house of Israel had no where to run. They were caught in the middle of the sea and Pharaoh. The house of Israel was now terrified because they faced sure death. Their choice was to die by the hands of Pharaoh or die by drowning in the Sea.

The Year of Jubilee

This fiftieth year you shall make sacred by proclaiming liberty in the land for all its inhabitants. It shall be a jubilee for you.
Leviticus 25:11
