In this episode of Don’t Miss This, Dave Butler and Grace Freeman study Exodus 14–18 and walk through the defining journey of Israel, from the Red Sea to the wilderness, discovering what it means to say, “This is my God.” What begins at the edge of the sea, with fear on every side and no way forward, becomes a powerful reminder that God is a rescuer. As the waters part and dry ground appears, we see a God who fights for His people, who makes a way where there is none, and who invites us to stand still and trust Him. These moments echo the heart of Easter, a God who delivers, saves, and leads His people out of bondage into new life. As the journey continues, new struggles arise. Bitter water, hunger, thirst, and exhaustion reveal how quickly faith can turn into fear. Yet over and over again, God responds with mercy. He heals what is broken, provides daily bread, brings water from unexpected places, and reminds His people that He is still with them. Each chapter becomes another witness that even in the wilderness, God has not left. This episode invites us to see our own lives in these stories. The same God who parted the sea is the God who walks with us through our daily battles. And just like Israel, we are learning again and again who He is, a God who rescues, provides, heals, and stays. A God who shows up not just once, but every single day.
