#91: "Deliverer" by Matt Maher

Released November 16, 2015 by More Than a Song - Michelle Nezat

 

Music and lyric have always played an important role in helping us to remember. Sometimes I remember where I was in 1980-something just by hearing a tune waft through the air in the grocery store. That's powerful! The Israelites used a song in Exodus 15 declaring the wondrous acts and mighty power of their Deliverer to help them remember the details of that experience. We can use Matt Maher's song, "Deliverer" to direct us to study that same place in God's Word and then allow it to help us remember what we've learned!
There are some powerful lessons in the song and this area of Scripture. Dive in today!
On this episode I discuss:

How quickly the Israelites freaked out after they left Egypt - Exodus 14:11-12
Moses' response - Exodus 14:13-14
God's response - Exodus 14:15-18
A verse-by-verse break down of the Song of Deliverance in Exodus 15
The importance of celebrating what God has done
Where the resistance in our lives comes from

Ourselves
Our enemy
God Himself


A quick peek at part of Psalm 66...another song that remembers that glorious day
