God reminds the Israelites that He has met their needs since day one, and He pledges to continue.
Isaiah 43:2 When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through
the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt
not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee.
He refers to some famous events in their history when He provided.
1. Pass through the waters – Crossing The Red Sea on dry land – Ex. 14
2. Pass through the river – The crossing the Jordan on dry land – Deut. 4
3. Walk through the fire – Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego wasn’t burned – Daniel 3.
What does this mean for us? Just that God has not changed. What He did for Israel, He can
do for you and me.
As we face the storms, walk through the valleys, and endure the dark nights of life,
remember that Israel’s God is the same God we serve, and He will never fail us.
He will meet every need we have for His own glory – Phil. 4:19; Matt. 6:33. Believe it.
