He Hasn’t Forgotten You (Stephen Chandler)

I was reading Exodus chapter 15.

In Exodus chapter 15, you don't gotta turn there.

We ...

This ain't the real preach.

This is just ...

Exodus 15, watch this, is the first song ever recorded in scripture.

Wow.

They mu- they sang and worshiped God, but it's the first song that was ever recorded in scripture that we could sing after the writer wrote it.

And it was Moses saying, "Who is like our God? There is no other God like our God.

He, He has defeated the horse and the rider.

He's defeated the Egyptians." This was Moses, watch this, on the other side of the Red Sea.

Can somebody say it's time to preach?

It's time to preach.

It took crossing through a death valley to be able to pen a song that a nation can sing to honor the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords.

Somebody say amen.

Amen.

And as I was thinking about this house and the songs that your pastor has penned and, and the worship that has come out of this place, this isn't just a song.

There's been a crossing over of battles.

There's been victories.

There's been travailing.

And one of the things I love about your pastor is he has walked through some things that we will never have to walk through, and has written songs on the other side that can give us faith and give us hope and give us inspiration of who is like our God.

So Pastor Steven, we thank you for what you've walked through, that you can see a side of God and give us words to describe our gratitude to Him.

Amen.

Amen.
