"THE SHAPE OF AIR !!!"

Here is the main thing that Moses needed to Know, and eventually, come to experience: That any ounce of doubt in faith, would not hold water! God was not only going to do a mighty work in Egypt, but He was going to do a mighty work in Moses. From here on out, the wimpy Moses has been transformed into a mighty man of God. Now, it is no longer a question of 'Will they listen to me or not'; but now it was the question of: 'What will happen next if they do not listen'. In fact; with each new day, and with each new plague and new manifestation of God's power and might, the faith of Moses gets stronger and stronger. And by the time Pharaoh would let God's people go, Moses would have the kind of faith needed, to lead the people to the edge of the Red Sea; declare, 'Now behold the Salvation of the Lord!; and then lift up his rod above the waters. No doubting God now! Moses is now saying with boldness: "Watch This!" What is the Shape of Air? Well; you can not see it, but you can feel it; you can see the effects it brings with it. I remember the first time I saw 'The Ten Commandments', I was about 7 or so, and sat on the floor in a movie theater, right below the screen. I will never forget how real it looked to me, to see the Red Sea part, right before my eyes. It was like I could see the invisible hands of God, holding that water back in 50 foot walls on each side of the screen. I can almost still remember how I felt like I was right there, walking through those walls with the people of God. No, you can not see the shape of air, but you sure can see it's effects, and experience it's power! What does Faith look like? "And when Pharaoh drew nigh, the children of Israel lifted up their eyes, and, behold, the Egyptians marched after them; and the were sore afraid: And the children of Israel cried out unto the Lord. And they said unto Moses, Because there were no graves in Egypt, hast thou taken us away to die in the wilderness? Wherefore hast thou dealt thus with us, to carry us forth out of Egypt? Is not this the word that we did tell thee in Egypt, saying, Let us alone, that we may serve the Egyptians? For it had been better for us to serve the Egyptians, than that we should die in the wilderness. And Moses said unto the people, Fear ye not, stand still and see the Salvation of the Lord, which He will show to you today: for the Egyptians whom ye have seen today, ye shall see them again no more for ever. The Lord shall fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace." "And Moses stretched out his hand over the sea; and the Lord caused the sea to go back by a strong east wind all that night, and made the sea dry land, and the waters were divided. And the children of Israel went into the midst of the sea upon the dry ground: And the waters were a wall unto them on their right hand, and on their left." (Exodus 14:10-14 & 21-22)
