Exodus 15:16 Fear and dread will fall on them; By the greatness of Your arm They will be as still as a stone, Till Your people pass over, O Lord, Till the people pass over Whom You have purchased.

When the people of Israel were told to leave Egypt and trek through the desert in search of the promised land, God was with them all the way.

It may not seem like it because of all the trouble they got into. It may not seem like it because they were hungry and thirsty.

But they were protected against many enemies; all they had to do was to have faith and trust God.

Yes it is hard to keep your faith when all round you seems to be falling apart – but keep it and enjoy the experience.

Exodus 3:14 And God said to Moses, “I AM WHO I AM.” And He said, “Thus you shall say to the children of Israel, ‘I AM has sent me to you.’”

When Moses asked for an explanation from God about how He should be introduced it was with the Hebrew word YHWH being the Self-Existent one.

What better way to express what God is that to describe Him in terms of always being here!

I love the fact God has always been and will always be. There is no need to try and figure out how long He has been around or the last time He was here.

He has always, is and will always be here!

Genesis 22:14 And Abraham called the name of the place, The-Lord-Will-Provide; as it is said to this day, “In the Mount of the Lord it shall be provided.”

If you wanted to name a place after a person, whom would you name it after?

Abraham wanted to make sure God’s name was lifted up high and this was one way of doing that.

People for generations would know this place as being the place where God provided for them.

God continues to provide for us day in and day out – make sure you tell others of the wonders He does in your life each day!

Genesis 18:27 Then Abraham answered and said, “Indeed now, I who am but dust and ashes have taken it upon myself to speak to the Lord:

The name of God used in this verse is the Hebrew Adonai being the plural of Adon, Lord, God, Master.

God is the Trinity, not just some spirit who created everything. Each of His names is often used in the plural to cover each of the Trinity.

God, in three parts, blessed trinity.

God, the Son, as sovereign master and king.
