The Song of Moses

Feast of Tabernacles Sermon by Richard T. Ritenbaugh

Music permeates our lives and holds a significant place in the worship of God, who created it and is constantly surrounded by the songs of angelic choirs praising Him. In the heavenly vision of Revelation, the redeemed stand before God's throne, enveloped in music, singing songs of glory for His works and what He has done. Among these songs is the song of Moses, mentioned in Revelation 15, where the overcomers—those who did not worship the beast—sing this song alongside the song of the Lamb, though it remains unclear whether these are one song or two. The song of Moses likely refers to one of the compositions attributed to Moses in Scripture. One candidate is the song sung by the children of Israel on the shores of the Red Sea, found in Exodus 15, after God's miraculous parting of the waters and the drowning of the Egyptian army. This song praises God for His astounding judgment and intervention, punishing the wicked and saving the redeemed, with imagery of standing by the sea that parallels the saints on the sea of glass in Revelation 15. The themes of God's wrath on enemies and redemption of His people resonate with the events of the end times, making it a fitting song for the Kingdom. Another strong possibility is the great song of Moses in Deuteronomy 32, composed before Israel entered the Promised Land. This longer song addresses universal truths about God's dealings with sin, His judgment on those who oppose Him, and His redemption of His servants. It speaks to the heavens and earth, suggesting a broader message beyond just Israel, with themes of vengeance, wrath, and salvation that echo the contrasts in Revelation 14 through 16, such as the harvest of the righteous and the wicked. References to wine, blood, and plagues align with the imagery of the seven last plagues and God's end-time judgments. Both songs carry themes of destruction and salvation, reflecting God's dual response of wrath on enemies and compassion on His people. While Exodus 15 aligns closely with the imagery of deliverance and judgment at the Red Sea, Deuteronomy 32 offers deeper universal applications with phrases that may connect to Revelation 15:3-4. The exact song remains uncertain, but both are viable, emphasizing God's consistent nature in rewarding His servants and punishing those who reject Him. As part of the first resurrection, the redeemed will sing the song of Moses before God's throne, joining in the heavenly chorus. This song, whichever it may be, encapsulates lessons of God's justice and mercy, lessons that will be carried forward as the redeemed serve as kings and priests, teaching others during the Millennium to choose life over death, just as they have done. The task now is to continue choosing life, to be among those who will stand before Him, singing His praises in song.
