Title: GOD WITH US
Author: Stephen Whitney
Text: Exodus 3:1-14
In a Sunday school the teacher was telling the 4-year-olds
how God is always with us, even when we cannot see him.
One little boy agreed. "I know he is," he said, "He's the one
who opens the sliding doors at the grocery store."
Our English word "with" comes from the old Anglo-Saxon word meaning: nearby, on the side of or in favor of. In other words,
God with us means that he is on our side to support us.
Psalm 23:4 Even though I walk through the valley of the
shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me.
We are not afraid because we are under God's protecting care.
John Gill - God is with them, "to comfort them with his love
and promises of his grace, to bear them up and support them
with his mighty arm of power . . . to drive their fears away."
Why do we need the assurance of God's presence in our lives?
-When we are troubled about something.
-When we are uncertain about what to do.
-When trials come into our lives.
-When we experience the death of a loved one.
Psalm 23:4 Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow
of death, I will fear no evil, for you are (KJB Thou art) with me.
With - Heb. to bind or tie together meaning to be by or next to.
In Exodus 3 we have the story of God calling Moses to lead the people of Israel out of slavery in Egypt. God promises Moses
that he will be with him.
PAST :1-6
Burning bush :1-3
Moses had been keeping sheep for the past 40 years since he fled the county of Egypt after killing an Egyptian (2:12).
Horeb - Heb. desert or desolation. It is usually identified with
the mountain Jebel el-Musa with is 7,363 feet high.
:2 God sent his angel who appeared in a flame of fire in a bush.
Even though the bush was on fire it did not burn up.
:3 Great (NIV strange) - Heb. extra ordinary.
Used of great grief (Genesis 50:10) and giants (Joshua 14:15).
