Why would God not want Israel to be workers together with Him this time (see 1 Corinthians 3:9)?

KJ21
And Moses said unto the people, “Fear ye not. Stand still, and see the salvation of the Lord, which He will show to you today; for the Egyptians whom ye have seen today, ye shall see them again no more forever (Exo. 14:13).

1 Corinthians 3:9 For we are co-workers in God's service; you are God's field, God's building.
