Isa. 43:16 “Thus says the LORD, Who makes a way through the sea And a path through the mighty waters…”
In the verse above, before the Lord will say anything, He gives first an intro about Who He is. This is to remind the listener that He is still the God Who is above all and because we often have lost sight of Him. His holiness, His majesty, His glory – it had all become very clouded, especially when troubles came.
We need to remember that our God is a God Who makes a way. He makes a way through difficult things. In fact, He can even make a way through the things that seem impossible – through the sea and through the mighty waters. That which was impossible with man was possible with God. Not only can He make a way through the mighty waters, He does make a way. God wanted them to remember that it was for them as well so it is spoken in the present tense. God needed the people to remember that… then and now!
