    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. 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. 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. As Israel was leaving Egypt, the living Sovereign LORD God led the Israelites to the edge of the Red Sea. 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. 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. 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. 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. 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). As the evil Pharaoh and his army drew near, the Israelites panicked and became afraid as they cried out to the LORD. 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. 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. 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.” 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. 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. The great Name of the LORD - Yahweh has wonder-working power to save and protect when you believe and trust in Him by faith. 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. 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. The living Sovereign LORD God protected and shielded His people with His Glory Cloud. 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. 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. 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. The Egyptians realized the living Sovereign LORD God was fighting for the Israelites as Israel’s Divine Warrior. 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. 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. At the Red Sea, the living Sovereign LORD God revealed His awesome glory and mighty power by ...

    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. 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 more and more defiant against the living Sovereign LORD God and his servants Moses and Aaron, and refused to release the Israelites from their brutal slavery. Even more, the evil Pharaoh increased the Israelites’ labor and made them work even harder. 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. 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. These divine plagues were unprecedented in the history of Egypt. 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. 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. 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. The evil Pharaoh’s magicians realized they had no true power, and the plagues were the “finger of God.” 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. Then, the living Sovereign LORD God released frogs throughout the whole land of Egypt. 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. 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. So, the living Sovereign LORD God listened to Moses’ prayers and removed the plagues from the land of Egypt. Moses was learning the role of intercessor that would become an important part of his life in his service to the living God. 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. Moses was considered a very great man in the land of Egypt, and he was respected by Pharaoh’s officials and the Egyptian people. Despite the numerous plagues, the evil Pharaoh lied and continued sinning against the living Sovereign LORD God by refusing to obey Him. 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). 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. 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. 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. 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. 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...

    Moses and his brother Aaron returned to Egypt as commanded by the living Sovereign LORD God of heaven and earth to rescue and deliver His people Israel from slavery and bondage, and lead the Israelites to the Promised Land of God - Israel-Palestine. The people of Israel bowed down with hopeful expectation and worship to the living God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob with thanksgiving after hearing Moses and Aaron’s message of deliverance, knowing that the living God had seen and listened to their bitter cries of slavery. Once in Egypt, Moses and Aaron commanded the evil Pharaoh to let the Israelites go from slavery and bondage so they could worship the God of the Hebrews with a feast and festival. However, the evil Pharaoh refused to listen to Moses and Aaron and even asked, “Who is the LORD?” that he would obey Him. Moses and Aaron continued their message to the evil Pharaoh that the God of the Hebrews had commanded the Israelites’ release so they could worship Him, or they would not receive God’s divine wrath and punishment. Then, the evil Pharaoh called Moses and Aaron liars and said that the people of Israel were many but lazy and weak, and the people must not be removed from their labor of building supply cities, Pithom and Raamses, for Egypt. So, the evil Pharaoh commanded his taskmasters to make Israel’s labor even harder and rigorous by taking away the Israelites’ straw for making bricks, but he continued to maintain Israel’s brick quota for building for Egypt. The Israelites gathered stubble instead of straw to make bricks. At the same time, 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. Then, the Israelite overseers met Moses and Aaron with anger, doubt, and frustration because the evil Pharaoh had increased their physical labor and made the Israelites’ slavery even harder, brutal, and bitter with much sorrow. So, Moses cried out to the living Sovereign LORD God, saying that the evil Pharaoh not only did not listen to him to release the Israelites from slavery, but the evil Pharaoh became defiant and made the Israelites’ slave labor even harsher, crueler, and troublesome. Then, the living Sovereign LORD God encouraged Moses and renewed His promises to him that the evil Pharaoh would feel and see His strong power and mighty hand when He would redeem and rescue the Israelites from the cruel Egyptian slavery and bondage. Then, the living Sovereign LORD God declared to Moses that He is the LORD (translated as “Yahweh” or “I AM”) that appeared to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob as God Almighty (El-Shaddai, Adonai), but they did not know His eternal covenant Name as the LORD, who is the strong and miracle-working Most High God of heaven and earth. In addition, the living Sovereign LORD God proclaimed to Moses that He had established His eternal covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob to give the Israelites the land of Canaan (Israel-Palestine), which is God’s land forever. Even more, the living Sovereign LORD God, who is forever faithful and present with this people, declared once again to Moses that He had heard and seen Israel’s bitter groaning, sorrows, and bitterness, and that He had remembered His eternal covenant promises with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. The living Sovereign LORD God declared that He had come down from heaven to redeem and free Israel from their oppressive slavery with His mighty arm and great judgments to claim (adopt) Israel as His people and give Israel the good land flowing with milk and honey He promised their fathers - Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob as a heritage. Then, the living Sovereign LORD God declared that the evil Pharaoh would know that the God of the Hebrews is the Redeemer God and the only true King and LORD of heaven and earth. Once again, the people of Israel heard Moses’ message of their deliverance and freedom by the living Sovereign LORD God from evil slavery but their hearts and spirits were filled with anguish and misery caused by the brutality of their slavery. So, the living Sovereign LORD God spoke to Moses and Aaron to command the evil Pharaoh king of Egypt to let His people Israel go from the land of Egypt. Moses questioned the living Sovereign LORD God if the people would listen to him, and once again, he argued as he did at Mount Sinai (Horeb) that he had weak speech (uncircumcised lips). However, the living Sovereign LORD God assured Moses that He would make Moses appear as God to evil Pharaoh and his brother Aaron as a prophet to speak all that He had commanded Moses to tell evil Pharaoh to let His people Israel go from Egypt so they could worship Him. Moses and Aaron were among the families of Israel (Hebrews) as descendants of Jacob’s son, the tribe of Levi, and they took the steps of faith and ...
