Verses 13-18 “13And Moses said unto the people, Fear ye not, stand still, and see the salvation of the LORD, which he will shew to you to day: for the Egyptians whom ye have seen to day, ye shall see them again no more for ever.
14The LORD shall fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace.
15And the LORD said unto Moses, Wherefore criest thou unto me? speak unto the children of Israel, that they go forward:
16But lift thou up thy rod, and stretch out thine hand over the sea, and divide it: and the children of Israel shall go on dry ground through the midst of the sea.
17And I, behold, I will harden the hearts of the Egyptians, and they shall follow them: and I will get me honour upon Pharaoh, and upon all his host, upon his chariots, and upon his horsemen.
18And the Egyptians shall know that I am the LORD, when I have gotten me honour upon Pharaoh, upon his chariots, and upon his horsemen.”
Israel’s deliverance and the destruction of Pharaoh’s army was all about the honor of the Lord. Our salvation, too, is all about glory and honor to the Lord, even though we tend to think that it is about us, our comfort, our blessedness for eternity, etc. In all that we do we should ask ourselves NOT, “Will this bring benefit to me?” We should ask ourselves, rather, “Will this bring glory and honor to the LORD?”
