The Israelites did not realize leaving Egypt meant leaving the place of enslavement, fear and persecution. Walking into this promise would require significant courage Choosing to leave your Egypt mentality behind to pursue the abundance God offers in your own personal "Promised Land" shall require MUCH courage. God has so much more in store for us. We will never know how much until we take the risk, step out of our comfort zones and reach for more. The Red Sea in the Hebrew language represented "coming to the end of something." In essence, it symbolized a new beginning." Comments about Red Seas: "The content of the book caused me to stop and consider the perceptions of trouble or struggle in the context of God's will for my life. I don't often consider my inheritance when I am going through a Red Sea Situation. What you have written, Jennifer, I believe will help the reader to reconsider what it means to "go through" and hold fast to God's will. Your transparency is invaluable in communicating hard biblical truths. It makes you and your perspective more clearer and your victories more imaginable." Terri M. "I love chapter 10 - "Supporting the Promise." It definitely made me reflect on things I wish I had heard when going through a tough experience. This is what truly makes a great book, and helps one to identify with the reader " Kristene "Great work, beautifully done God used your words to strike a blow to my insides and it was a reminder about my attitude - what I have been holding back from God and why."
