Pharaoh’s chariots and his host hath he cast into the sea. Exodus 15:4
Talk about poetic justice. Pharaoh had commanded that every son born to the Israelites should be cast into the river to drown (Ex. 1:22). So God spared a Hebrew baby by Pharaoh’s own daughter who named him, Moses, “one who draws out”, because she drew him out of the water (Ex. 2:10). He became the deliverer that God used to draw out His people from bondage. He was standing there that day when God judged Pharaoh by casting his host into the sea. One day we’ll see more than poetic justice. God will judge the world in righteousness by Jesus Christ. —Rex Trogdon
God moves in a mysterious way, His wonders to perform;
He plants His footsteps in the sea, and rides upon the storm.
—William Cowper
