Exodus 14:25 He jammed the wheels of their chariots so that they had difficulty driving. (God has intervened in the Egyptian's relentless pursuit of His people. The chariots, earlier having been a strong, tactical advantage for the Egyptian army now has become a hindrance to either their advancing or retreating. What had been the advantage of a stronger and highly equipped army had now become an insurmountable limitation and drawback to effective movement, a striking picture of how the Lord uses the weapons formed against His people to turn back on and destroy the enemy with the very weapons meant to harm us. We can trust Him to protect us from the weapons formed against us today.) And the Egyptians said, "Let's get away from the Israelites! The Lord is fighting for them against Egypt." (The Lord even uses elements of nature as His weapons to produce His victory over the enemy. The driving rain, the hailstorm, the wind storm, the raging waters, the mud-filled sea bed, all respond to the Lord's command to show us today a graphic picture of the enemy's response to the Lord's fierce counter attack and to the enemy's reaction to His doing battle on our behalf. Today, He is for us, not against us. As He fights for us, He makes the enemy flee in defeat.)
