Hurricane

Hurricane.
You just come out of a rainstorm and you're so looking forward to the sunshine. The ease that comes with a day filled with warmth. Then out of nowhere you see the swirling clouds of a hurricane on the horizon. How could this be? Wasn't this your season for sunshine and ease?

I would imagine this is what the Israelites felt as they came up to the Red Sea with the Egyptians hot on their heels. Everything closing in and no place to go and then they feel it. The winds start whipping around them. Really God something else to contend with now? Don't you think we are past our breaking point? But then something amazing happens. The hurricane creates a wall of water that allows them to walk through on dry ground.

What looks like destruction is actually the answer to your prayers. What looks like complete chaos is actually God's carefully scripted plan. The very storm you thought was going to kill you actually allows your escape.

But one better still lets not forget....the very same hurricane that rescued the Israelites swallowed the Egyptians. Allow the storm to provide your escape and demolish the enemy at the very same time.
