Reflection & Application

Exodus 15:22-27

  • Reflect on the fact that immediately after the mighty deliverance and the parting of the Red Sea, the Israelites wander for three days in the desert without finding water.  How is this true to life?

  • What does the fact that they “grumbled against Moses” show about the character of the Israelites?

  • What is the significance of God revealing himself as “the Lord, your healer” in the context of changing the bitter waters of Marah into sweet, drinkable water?  Have I experienced this kind of healing in my own Marah (bitter) heart?
