Praise And Worship Please G-d As Does Prayer
May It Be Even At Situations Unfavorable To You — To Still Thank And Praise Hashem For He Is Very Much Involved In The Nitty Gritty Of Things In Your Daily Life
*As it is said, count your blessings when things go wrong. Forget not what G-d has done when things were down.
To you of a genuine heart that applies His commands is what G-d looks after.
“The Song by the Sea”
“Israel Tests G-d”
… I shall sing to Hashem for He is exalted above the arrogant, having hurled horse with its rider into the sea.
15:1
The might and vengeance of God was salvation for me. This is my God and I will build Him a Sanctuary; the God of my father and I will exalt Him.
:2
In Your abundant grandeur You shatter Your opponents; You send forth Your wrath, it consumes them like straw.
:7
Who is like You among the heavenly powers, Hashem! Who is like You, mighty in holiness, too awesome for praise, Doer of wonders!
:11
With Your kindness You guided this people that You redeemed; You led with Your might to Your holy abode.
:13
Hashem shall reign for all eternity!
:18
Miriam spoke up to them, “Sing to Hashem for He is exalted above the arrogant, having hurled horse with its rider into the sea.”
:21
He said, “If you hearken diligently to the voice of Hashem, your God, and do what is just in His eyes, give ear to His commandments and observe all His decrees, then any of the diseases that I placed in Egypt, I will not bring upon you, for I am Hashem, your Healer.”
:26
1 Then Moses and the children of Israel sang this song to the Lord, and they spoke, saying, I will sing to the Lord, for very exalted is He; a horse and its rider He cast into the sea.
2 The Eternal’s strength and His vengeance were my salvation; this is my God, and I will make Him a habitation, the God of my father, and I will ascribe to Him exaltation.
3 The Lord is a Master of war; the Lord is His Name.
4 Pharaoh’s chariots and his army He cast into the sea, and the elite of his officers sank in the Red Sea.
5 The depths covered them; they descended into the depths like a stone.
6 Your right hand, O Lord, is most powerful; Your right hand, O Lord, crushes the foe.
7 And with Your great pride You tear down those who rise up against You; You send forth Your burning wrath; it devours them like straw.
8 And with the breath of Your nostrils the waters were heaped up; the running water stood erect like a wall; the depths congealed in the heart of the sea.
9 [Because] the enemy said, I will pursue, I will overtake, I will share the booty; my desire will be filled from them; I will draw my sword, my hand will impoverish them.
10 You blew with Your wind, the sea covered them; they sank like lead in the powerful waters.
11 Who is like You among the powerful, O Lord? Who is like You, powerful in the holy place? Too awesome for praises, performing wonders!
12 You inclined Your right hand; the earth swallowed them up.
13 With Your loving kindness You led the people You redeemed; You led [them] with Your might to Your holy abode.
14 Peoples heard, they trembled; a shudder seized the inhabitants of Philistia.
15 Then the chieftains of Edom were startled; [as for] the powerful men of Moab, trembling seized them; all the inhabitants of Canaan melted.
16 May dread and fright fall upon them; with the arm of Your greatness may they become as still as a stone, until Your people cross over, O Lord, until this nation that You have acquired crosses over.
17 You shall bring them and plant them on the mount of Your heritage, directed toward Your habitation, which You made, O Lord; the sanctuary, O Lord, [which] Your hands founded.
18 The Lord will reign to all eternity
19 When Pharaoh’s horses came with his chariots and his horsemen into the sea, and the Lord brought the waters of the sea back upon them, and the children of Israel walked on dry land in the midst of the sea,
20 Miriam, the prophetess, Aaron’s sister, took a timbrel in her hand, and all the women came out after her with timbrels and with dances.
21 And Miriam called out to them, Sing to the Lord, for very exalted is He; a horse and its rider He cast into the sea
22 Moses led Israel away from the Red Sea, and they went out into the desert of Shur; they walked for three days in the desert but did not find water.
23 They came to Marah, but they could not drink water from Marah because it was bitter; therefore, it was named Marah.
24 The people complained against Moses, saying, What shall we drink?
25 So he cried out to the Lord, and the Lord instructed him concerning a piece of wood, which he cast into the water, and the water became sweet. There He gave them a statute and an ordinance, and there He tested them.
26 And He said, If you hearken to the voice of the Lord, your God, and you do what is proper in His eyes, and you listen closely to His commandments and observe all His statutes, all the sicknesses that I have visited upon Egypt I will not visit upon you, for I, the Lord, heal you
27 They came to Elim, and there were twelve water fountains and seventy palms, and they encamped there by the water.

TORAH
(Law)
The book of Deuteronomy, also known as Devarim in Hebrew (“Words”), is the fifth book of the Hebrew Bible or the Christian Old Testament. It contains a series of speeches by Moses to the Israelites, just before they are about to enter the promised land, which summarize and expand upon many of the laws and commandments given in the earlier books of the Torah. The word Deuteronomy literally means “second law,” indicating that Moses is rehearsing the law with the Israelites before they enter the land.
The book is often seen as a sort of farewell address by Moses, containing some of his final instructions and blessings to the people he has led for many years. It emphasizes the importance of following G-d’s commandments and remaining faithful to Him, while warning against the dangers of disobedience and idolatry. Overall, Deuteronomy serves as a significant text in the history of Judaism and Christianity, containing many of the foundational beliefs and values of these religions.
