Making a Way

This first sermon in our Making a Way series teaches that God often does His deepest work when we run out of our own options. Through the story of the Israelites at the Red Sea in Exodus 14, we see how moments of uncertainty reveal where we place our trust. When the Israelites felt trapped, they looked back toward Egypt because the familiar seemed safer than the unknown. However, God called them to trust Him, stand firm, and watch Him provide a way forward.

What appeared to be an impossible obstacle became the very path to their deliverance as God parted the Red Sea. The story reminds us that God is not limited by the circumstances that seem impossible to us. Most importantly, God’s desire is not simply to rescue us from difficult situations but to lead us into a new life with Him. When we trust God and follow His leading, He can transform our greatest obstacles into opportunities to experience His power, faithfulness, and salvation.
