The Israelites Crossed the Red SeaBased on Exodus 13:17–14:31

Reader One: God led Moses back to Egypt to plead “Pharaoh, let My people go!” Time after time, again and againThough Moses begged, Pharaoh said, “No!”Plague after plague, Woe after woePharaoh had enough, and let God’s people go

Reader Two: From Egyptian slavery the Jews were freeGod led them in the desert toward the Red SeaGod made a promise to protect and to careWhen life for the Israelites just did not seem fair

Reader One: God led the people along the wayWith a pillar of cloud to follow during the dayHe gave them a pillar of fire at nightThi s helped to assure them everything would be alrightFin ally, the Israelites came to the Red Sea Mo ses stopped and told God, “I’ll wait for Thee”

Reader Two: After all they’d experienced, Pharaoh changed his mindHe thought, “Who’ll do all the work now?” that Pharaoh—so unkind!Pharaoh needed workers to make bricks and do as he said,What had he been thinking, what was going through his head?Pharaoh ordered an army after them, not knowing they would all soon be dead.

Reader One:The Egyptians chased the Israelites with chariots and horsesThe Israelites saw the army coming in the distance and cried to Moses,“Why? Oh why?”“Did you bring us to the desert to let us die?”

Reader Two: The Israelites were afraid and felt trapped between the sea and army They escaped slavery just to end up like this? How could this be?The sea was in front of them and Pharaoh’s army behind, and they cried, “What will we do?”Moses said, “We are not trapped. Trust and believe. God will fight for you.”

Reader One: The Eygptian’s power was no match for God and the Lord told Moses to lift his staff and stretch out his armYou see, there was no need for the Israelites to be alarmed!Though they felt like running away, this was no time to depart!When Moses lifted his staff, God blew a mighty wind and pushed the water apart.

Reader Two: After traveling through all of the desert sandsThrough parted waters, the Israelites walked onto dry landGod parted the Red Sea so they would know“We can trust Him to make a way, just watch and see.”

Reader One: The story is not over, Pharaoh should have let it be,And Pharaoh’s army mistakenly entered the seaGod told Moses to reach out his hand over the sea once againMoses obeyed and the walls of water fell over the army of Egyptian men

Reader Two: Pharaoh’s chariots and horsemen were swept away by a mighty flood,God’s people were saved that day,Always remember God will make a way For in the Israelites’ darkest hour,God demonstrated His great love and almighty power!
