In this week's episode, we continue in the story of the Israelites crossing the Red Sea as described in Exodus 14.

There are many parallels between the Israelites' deliverance and our own spiritual journey. The story of the Red Sea crossing serves as a powerful reminder of God's deliverance and faithfulness, encouraging us to trust Him in our own challenging circumstances. Just as God made a way through the Red Sea, He has made a way for us through Jesus Christ.

The Israelites find themselves trapped between the Red Sea and Pharaoh's approaching army. Did God intentionally lead His people into what seemed like an impossible situation, all to display His glory and power? In this episode, we unpack the importance of trusting God's plan, even when we don't understand it, and can be assured that God is with us in our most difficult times. Through the Israelites' experience, we learn valuable lessons about facing our own challenges with faith and confidence in God's deliverance!

God's strengthening presence is most evident in our times of need—when we witness for Him, wait upon His timing, and even in our suffering. Paul, writing from prison, reminds us that God's strength is made perfect in our weakness. It's during these moments that we must trust in God's plan and His timing, knowing that He is our steadfast conductor through life's tunnels.

Key Verses: 2 Timothy 1:7 (NLT): "For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love, and self-discipline."

Philippians 4:13 (NLT): "For I can do everything through Christ, who gives me strength."

In this week's episode, we explore the profound role of fatherhood as a divine stewardship and a reflection of God's care for us. Fathers are depicted as protectors, providers, role models, and spiritual leaders who have the

opportunity to influence their families and the world for Christ.

Key Verses: Ephesians 6:4 (NIV) : "Fathers, do not exasperate your children: instead. bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord.";

Proverbs 22:6 (NIV) : "Start children off on the way they should go, and even when they are old they will not turn from it."

In this podcast episode, we explore the significance of the names of God and how they reveal His character and nature. Let's delve in to the four names of God mentioned in Psalm 91:1-2: El Elyon (The Most High), El Shaddai (The Almighty), Jehovah (The Lord) and Elohim (God). Understanding these names can bring us closer to the heart of Cod. Our position is a privilege of being near to God, only available through Jesus' sacrifice. Today, we are invited to dwell in God's presence and find refuge and strength in Him.

Key verses: Psalm 91:1-2 (NIV) : "Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow or the Almighty. I will say of the LORD, 'He is my refuge and my fortress, my God in whom I trust.'

Exodus 3:14 (NIV) : "God said to Moses, 'I AM WHO I AM. This is what you are to say to the Israelites: "I AM has sent me to you."

There is a beautiful parallel between the characteristics of a palm tree and the life of a righteous person. In this episode, Dr. Clark Whitney emphasizes the importance of being planted in the house of the Lord, flourishing in faith, and bearing fruit even in old age. He also touches on the concept of righteousness, explaining that true righteousness comes only through faith in Jesus Christ. We are each called to respond to God's faithfulness by being faithful ourselves, and to show the world that the Lord is our rock through our flourishing lives.
