Today’s devotional comes from the classic collection Morning and Evening by Spurgeon. In it, Spurgeon reminds us that God held back the waters of the Red Sea until all of the Israelites had crossed into safety. He’s not going to give up on any of us, even if we’re the last one in line.

Then Moses sang at the Red Sea, it was his joy to know that all Israel were safe. Not a drop of spray fell from that solid wall until the last of God’s Israel had safely planted his foot on the other side the flood. That done, immediately the floods dissolved into their proper place again, but not till then. Part of that song was, “Thou in thy mercy hast led forth the people which thou hast redeemed.” In the last time, when the elect shall sing the song of Moses, the servant of God, and of the Lamb, it shall be the boast of Jesus, “Of all whom thou hast given me, I have lost none.” In heaven there shall not be a vacant throne.
