All Powerful God

 In the book of Exodus, the LORD (Yahweh) displayed His awesome power and almighty hand through signs and wonders, so that the evil Pharaoh would know that the God of the Hebrews is the only true King and God of heaven and earth.[1] Moses and Aaron repeatedly went to the wicked Pharaoh, who was the king of Egypt, to demand that Pharaoh release and free the Israelites (Hebrews) from slavery, or Pharaoh would experience God’s wrath and punishment. The evil Pharaoh became increasingly defiant against the living Sovereign LORD God and his servants Moses and Aaron, and he refused to release the Israelites (Hebrews) from their brutal slavery. Even more, the evil Pharaoh increased the Israelites’ labor and made them work even harder.[2]The evil Pharaoh and his taskmasters and overseers continued to beat and demand that the Hebrews continue their heavy labor building Pithom and Raamses for Egypt, while also accusing the Israelites of being weak and lazy, who did not want to work.[3]

 

Therefore, the living Sovereign LORD God of heaven and earth demonstrated His mighty power to the evil Pharaoh and the Egyptians through signs and wonders, as He sent ten plagues.[4] These divine plagues were unprecedented in the history of Egypt.[5] The plagues of Egypt are often called “signs,” just as Christ Jesus’s miracles in the New Testament were called “signs” as Christ Jesus’ ministry was filled with divine signs and mighty deeds.[6] The Holy Bible warns that Satan and his evil workers, who are filled with lies, darkness, and greed, can also perform signs and wonders to lead people away from wholehearted faithfulness and allegiance to the living Sovereign LORD God.[7] In the book of Exodus, the evil Pharaoh’s magicians and sorcerers performed similar signs and wonders as Moses and his brother Aaron, but God’s power defeated and overpowered these evil demons' signs and wonders.[8] The evil Pharaoh’s magicians realized they had no true power, and the plagues were the “finger of God.”[9]

 

In the first plague, the living Sovereign LORD God, through His servant Moses, turned all the waters into blood, including the canals, ponds, and rivers of Egypt, as well as the Egyptian Nile.[10] Then, the living Sovereign LORD God released frogs throughout the whole land of Egypt.[11] However, the evil Pharaoh refused to submit and obey the LORD (Yahweh). So, the living Sovereign LORD God sent more plagues throughout Egypt including pesky gnats and swarming flies, turning all the animals and livestock of Egypt sick, giving the Egyptians and the animals festering skin boils with painful sores, bringing destroying hailstorms with thunder and lightning flashes, and then He sent swarms of locusts (grasshoppers) throughout Egypt that ate all the Egyptians crops leaving Egypt in devastation and ruins.[12]

 

With the divine plagues, the evil Pharaoh begged Moses to intercede and pray to the living Sovereign LORD God to take God’s punishment and wrath away from Egypt, and then he would release Israel from slavery.[13]So, the living Sovereign LORD God listened to Moses’ prayers and removed the plagues from the land of Egypt.[14] Moses was learning the role of intercessor that would become an important part of his life in his service to the living God.[15] Despite Moses’ intercessory prayers, the evil Pharaoh continued his stubbornness and refused to release Israel from slavery so they could worship the living Sovereign LORD God.[16] Moses was considered a very great man in the land of Egypt, and he was respected by Pharaoh’s officials and the Egyptian people.[17]

 

Despite the numerous plagues, the evil Pharaoh lied and continued sinning against the living Sovereign LORD God by refusing to obey Him.[18] The evil Pharaoh’s heart, who the living Sovereign LORD God controlled, remained stubborn, obstinate, and hardened, and he refused to release the Israelites from slavery so they could worship the LORD (Yahweh).[19] However, the living Sovereign LORD God protected and shielded His people with His abiding peace from the harmful plagues, including the firstborn’s death, by passing over the Israelites’ homes.[20] The Sovereign LORD God’s purpose of the Exodus was to reveal the God of the Hebrews, who is the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, as the only true God of heaven and earth with all power, glory, and superiority over everything, and to lead everyone to worship and honor Him as LORD and King.[21]

 

Sometime later, the living Sovereign LORD God sent the ninth plague of darkness, bringing complete darkness over all of Egypt so that the evil Pharaoh would release Israel from slavery.[22] After feeling the darkness, the evil Pharaoh agreed to release the Israelites from slavery, but once again, the wicked Pharaoh lied and refused to submit to the LORD (Yahweh) by releasing Israel from slavery.[23] Then, the living Sovereign LORD God sent His tenth plague and final angry blow upon Egypt by destroying and killing all the Egyptians' firstborn sons living in every family, including Pharaoh’s firstborn son, and killing the firstborn of all the Egyptian male animals and livestock.[24] The living Sovereign LORD God’s tenth and final plague was to strike and execute judgment against all the gods of Egypt so the Egyptians would know the LORD (Yahweh) is the only true God of heaven and earth.[25] However, the living Sovereign LORD God announced to the evil Pharaoh that there would be peace and safety over God’s people.[26]

 

Finally, the evil Pharaoh released the Israelites from slavery after experiencing the strong wrath and mighty power of the living Sovereign LORD God, so Israel could worship the LORD (Yahweh).[27] The evil Pharaoh released the Israelites from slavery, and Moses led the Israelites out of Egypt as a strong and great army, with the living Sovereign LORD God as Israel’s Commander-in-Chief leading the way through His Glory Cloud—a fiery cloud that provided protection and guidance to Israel.[28] The Israelites endured 430 years of brutal slavery and oppression as the living Sovereign LORD God warned Abraham in Genesis 15, so Israel would receive the Promised Land of God - Israel-Palestine, which flows with milk and honey, that He promised Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.[29] Even more, the living Sovereign LORD God gave His people favor amongst the Egyptians, and Israel plundered and stripped the Egyptians of their wealth as they were leaving slavery.[30]

 

From the events of Exodus, the living Sovereign LORD God established the beginning of the New Year (Abib, later called by the Babylonians Nisan), the LORD’s Passover celebration meal of the spotless Passover animal (lamb or goat), and the Festival of Unleavened Bread (celebration of seven days eating bread without yeast).[31] The living Sovereign LORD God commanded the Israelites to take some of the Passover animal’s blood and smear it over their home’s doorframe, and then He would pass over their home during His final plague of death.[32] Thus, the Passover meal and the Festival of Unleavened Bread are annual spring festivals that celebrate God’s eternal laws, marking the living Sovereign LORD God’s redemption and deliverance of His people, Israel, from the evil of Egyptian slavery and death.[33]

 

The New Testament states that Christ Jesus celebrated the annual Jewish Passover during His public ministry on earth.[34] Notably, Christ Jesus’ sacrificial death and resurrection are closely linked in the New Testament to the Passover season.[35] Christ Jesus’ last supper with His disciples on Thursday evening before His sacrificial death at Calvary on Friday was the Passover meal celebration (Seder meal).[36] Christ Jesus is the sacrificial Passover Lamb of God, who gave His spotless life as a ransom Passover Lamb, to redeem and free everyone through faithful obedience to Him from Satan’s evil bondage and bring us into God’s Kingdom family and new life.[37] In fact, the Apostle Paul in the New Testament draws a comparison between the Passover of the Exodus and the sacrifice of Christ Jesus our Lord, to be celebrated with sincerity and truth.[38] In essence, Christ Jesus’s sacrificial death transformed the traditional annual Passover with reference to His own sacrificial death as the Passover Lamb of God.[39]

 

The living Sovereign LORD God controls all the world by His mighty hand as the only true God and King of the nations.[40] There is NO ONE like the LORD (also known as Yahweh or the Great I AM) in all the heavens and earth, as all the earth belongs to the LORD.[41] Nothing is too hard for the God of the Hebrews - the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.[42] The living Sovereign LORD God as King of the Universe controls light and darkness, life and death, and all the forces of the heavens.[43] The teachings of Exodus reveal why EVERYONE must humbly obey, submit, fear, and importantly wholeheartedly love the living Sovereign LORD God with their whole hearts, souls, and minds because He is God Almighty (El Shaddai) and He cares for His people.[44] The God of the Hebrews is the Creator of everything, and He is the LORD of Heaven’s Armies (Sabaoth or the LORD of Hosts) as the Commander of all heavenly forces and powers.[45] Although the living Sovereign LORD God is Almighty, He is also the God of mercy and grace, slow to anger, and filled with unfailing love, truth, and faithfulness.[46]

 

Here is more Good News. The living Sovereign LORD God of heaven and earth has sent His Son Christ Jesus as the Redeemer and Liberator who sets all humanity free from Satan and his dark living through our faithful obedience to Christ Jesus.[47] Christ Jesus is our Lord and Savior who delivers us from Satan’s bondage to sin and evildoing.[48] Jesus is the LORD!

God's Protection

 The living Sovereign LORD God of heaven and earth defeated all the gods of Egypt by His great power with signs and wonders, and He brought His people Israel as a mighty army with boldness from Egyptian slavery, with Moses leading the way.[1] As Israel was leaving Egypt, the living Sovereign LORD God by His grace covered, guided, and protected Israel underneath His wings in a pillar of cloud by day, and during the night, He went ahead of Israel in a pillar of fire.[2] This amazing pillar of cloud and pillar of fire was the Glory Cloud, and the Glory Cloud of God is seen throughout the Holy Bible, including at Mount Sinai, as the living God’s Presence - a Theophany.[3]

 

As Israel was leaving Egypt, the living Sovereign LORD God led the Israelites to the edge of the Red Sea.[4]However, the evil Pharaoh once again became stubborn and hardhearted, refusing to submit with repentance to the LORD (Yahweh), and he and his fellow Egyptians pursued the Israelites so Israel could return to slavery and bondage.[5] So, the evil Pharaoh and the Egyptians took their elite military men with fighting chariots and pursued the Israelites so they could return them to Egyptian slavery.[6] However, the living Sovereign LORD God was controlling the evil Pharaoh by hardening his heart, so He could display and reveal His power and glory to the evil Pharaoh and the Egyptians, making Himself known as the only true God and King of heaven and earth.[7] In the New Testament, Christ Jesus also noted that His Holy Father allowed certain events, such as the blind man receiving his sight and Lazarus rising from the dead, for God’s glory and honor.[8] Moreover, the LORD knew the evil Pharaoh would be hardhearted and stubborn because the evil Pharaoh believed he was mightier and stronger than the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob - the Great I AM (Yahweh).[9]

 

As the evil Pharaoh and his army drew near, the Israelites panicked and became afraid as they cried out to the LORD.[10] Also, the Israelites became discouraged, succumbing to fear and not faith in the living LORD, as well as becoming angry with Moses, wanting to return to Egyptian slavery.[11] Moses declared his confidence and faith in the living LORD and assured the people not to be afraid nor discouraged because the LORD (Yahweh) was with them as a Divine Warrior, and He would fight and protect them against the Egyptians.[12]In one of the greatest statements of faith in the Holy Bible, Moses told the people, “Do not be afraid…. stand still and watch the LORD rescue you today…. The LORD Himself will fight for you. Just stay calm.”[13] The story of the Red Sea is a reminder that although Israel was “ready for battle” and marching out of Egypt boldly, the victory would be won by the LORD alone.[14] Significantly, the living Sovereign LORD God revealed His great almighty power to save and shield His people who call upon Him and His Holy Name by faith.[15] The great Name of the LORD - Yahweh has wonder-working power to save and protect when you believe and trust in Him by faith.[16]

 

Then, the living Sovereign LORD God commanded Moses to put his faith into action by raising his staff (rod) over the Red Sea so the Israelites could cross the Red Sea on dry ground.[17] Then, the mighty Angel of God and the Glory Cloud, who traveled and went before Israel, came between God’s people to shield and protect them from Pharaoh’s army.[18] The living Sovereign LORD God protected and shielded His people with His Glory Cloud.[19] Moses obeyed the living Sovereign LORD God’s command, and he raised his staff over the Red Sea. Then, the Sovereign LORD God sent His mighty wind from His nostrils to divide and push back the sea to create a safe path for His people to safely cross on dry land, protected in the midst of the sea.[20]Moses and the Israelites followed the dry path through the Red Sea to the other side. Israel’s baptism and escape through the Red Sea was one of the greatest climactic rescues in human history.[21]

 

Then, the living Sovereign LORD God looked upon the Egyptian army from His Glory Cloud with grace, and He began fighting for Israel by bringing trouble and confusion to the Egyptian army and even jamming the wheels of the Egyptian military chariots.[22] The Egyptians realized the living Sovereign LORD God was fighting for the Israelites as Israel’s Divine Warrior.[23] After the Israelites safely crossed the Red Sea on dry land, the living Sovereign LORD God commanded Moses to stretch out his staff (rod) over the Red Sea so the waters would return to flow back over evil Pharaoh and the Egyptian army.[24] Pharaoh’s army pursued the Israelites through the Red Sea, but the living Sovereign LORD God continued fighting for Israel by blowing the winds from His nostrils to return the sea waters to punish and overthrow the Egyptians in the midst of the Red Sea and completely drown the Egyptians' elite military men and fighting chariots.[25] At the Red Sea, the living Sovereign LORD God revealed His awesome glory and mighty power by destroying the Egyptians as promised and saving Israel with His mighty hand and strong power.[26] Then, the Israelites feared and honored the living Sovereign LORD God and placed their trust in Him and in Moses, who was God’s servant.[27]

 

Moses and all of Israel celebrated their “exodus” from Egypt and honored the living Sovereign LORD God for their deliverance and salvation with singing, dancing, and laughter to the LORD.[28] Israel was free - Independence Day! The living Sovereign LORD God saved and gave Israel victory over the great Egyptian army as He promised Father Abraham in the book of Genesis.[29] Moses and the Israelites declared that the LORD (Yahweh) is a mighty Warrior and Defender who fights and protects His people from their enemies and harm with His incredible power and authority.[30] Then, Miriam the prophetess, who was the sister of Moses and Aaron, led the women of Israel with singing, dancing, and praises to the living Sovereign LORD God for His triumphant deliverance over Egypt and salvation of Israel.[31] Amazingly, the Holy Bible celebrates Israel’s deliverance from Egyptian slavery and salvation at the Red Sea as a way of describing the living Sovereign LORD God’s mighty power and hand as the Great I AM who brought Israel out of Egypt.[32]  

 

The living Sovereign LORD God revealed to the Egyptians and all the world that the God of the Hebrews is the only true God of heaven and earth with all authoritative power, glory, and superiority as the mighty LORD and great King of the Universe.[33] Israel’s deliverance and salvation from Egypt displayed the living Sovereign LORD God’s supernatural control and miraculous power over the forces of nature, including winds and the sea, as well as Egypt’s human forces and military weapons to protect and fight for His people.[34] The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob is forever good and holy, and He is the eternal and reigning God of gods and Lord of lords over all creation, and there is no other god like Him.[35] The LORD reigns and lives forever and ever over all nations as King, and He is our wonderful Savior.[36]
