15 There is no shortcuts in God’s Kingdom. You know, we try to make a shortcut, we get out here in a pond somewhere and mire down. And that’s what we do when we get off the grand old highway of God. God made a path, a way.
16 When the children of Israel come out of the land of Egypt, they followed God’s path. It led up to the Red Sea. Strange, that God would lead His path up that way. But His path went right through the sea.
17 So when it come time, and the showdown, and Israel stood there before the sea, God’s path led across the sea. So God looked down through the Pillar of Fire, the sea got scared and moved back, and Israel went across on dry land. God’s path led through it.
18 Then He went right up to the wilderness, into the spring of Marah, “bitter” water. Isn’t it strange that God would lead His children through bitter waters? But them all goes along the road. But when He was there, the remedy for the bitter waters was standing on the bank. Moses cut down a tree and throwed it in the water, and turned sweet again. Some through the waters, some through the flood, Some through deep trials, but all through the Blood.
19 That’s the way God leads His children; God’s path, God’s provided way. If the children of Israel would have to try to bypass, and go around, down this way, they’d a-got in trouble. They had to follow the Cloud of Fire, the Pillar of Fire that led them. They followed That.
20 And if the Church, tonight, will only follow the Pillar of Fire, the Holy Spirit, you’ll make Canaan as sure as anything. God has a way, a provided way.
