He has brought us out

He brought out His people with joy,
His chosen ones with gladness. – Psalm 105.43

God has a way of delivering His people. The clearest picture of God’s bringing out His people of course is when God parted the Red Sea and brought out His people for captivity in Egypt. He did it with joy and gladness and they responded with joy and gladness.

But there is even a greater example of God bringing out His people with joy. When He saved us He redeemed us from the slave market of sin and set us free from the law of sin and death. Now, sin doesn’t have a power to rule over us. The only time sin reigns is when we yield to a power that has no power over us. He brought us out and we can rejoice at what He has. As we consider ourselves dead to sin’s power we can live for Him in gladness.

When God brought His people out of Egypt He parted the waters of the Red Sea to do it. What an amazing miracle.

But the miracle was even greater when He broke the that bound me to by sin and freed me to walk in Him.

No matter what happens in this life we can have joy and delight in the knowledge that our God has brought us out.
