Psalms 106:9-12

Psalms 106:9-12. He rebuked the Red sea also, and it was dried up: so he led them through the depths, as through the wilderness. And he saved them from the hand of him that hated them, and redeemed them from the hand of the enemy. And the waters covered their enemies: there was not one of them left. Then believed they his words; they sang his praise.

I should think they did believe God’s words when they could see his wonderful works, but it is a poor faith that needs prodigies to be wrought each hour or else it fails. No wonder they sang God’s praise at the Red sea, but, exultant as the songs of Moses and Miriam were, even better is that praise which rises from a broken and contrite heart which the Lord has delivered out of its trouble.
