After the Israelites crossed the Red Sea, Moses and the people sang to Yahweh by the sea. They remembered that He had thrown horse and chariot into the sea and had become their strength, song, and salvation. The song praised Yahweh’s power, holiness, steadfast love, and reign, and told how He leads the people He redeemed. Then Miriam the prophetess took a tambourine, and the women followed her with tambourines and dancing, answering with praise that Yahweh had triumphed gloriously.
Red Sea praise reminds us that true thanksgiving and praise remember Yahweh’s saving love and give glory to Him. Moses, the Israelites, and Miriam sang on the safe shore because they had seen God rescue them from Egypt with their own eyes. When we experience help, protection, or a new way forward today, we can quietly remember God’s grace and thank Him with prayer, song, and obedience. We also remember that praise means confessing that Yahweh is our strength, song, and salvation.
