I love this chapter, because we are so intricately entwined with God and in His image that, He allows us to describe ourselves and circumstances in the same manner. I am strong Joel 3:10, I am wonderfully and fearfully made, Ps139:14. Using I am to describe yourself with a negative connotation is using the Lord's name in vain! So one cannot say I am broke because that's not what/who God is! Describe yourself positively regardless of situations or feelings.
Anybody who is fighting the children of God should be careful because God will not think twice when dealing with him/her. He will give time to change as he did to the Egyptians but the authorities refused. They saw the mighty hand of God when the time came. He said he would be with Moses and he did that, praise be to his name. Relax, God will fight your battle for you.
@Oz,
After 400 years of hard labour of exploitation, God is giving way for the children of Israel to get out of Egypt.
And it is quite understandable that He instructs His people to collect some of the ownership which they hardly and harshly worked for and strip the Egyptians.
There was no room for negotiation to that end, so God just instructed them to softly go about it.
That’s God’s justice, because their righteousness is of God saith the Lord, Isaiah 54:17.
God was and is able to multiply it back to the Egyptians, or to anyone else, through His grace and mercy.
I was puzzled this morning by reading what God told Moses, among other things: "But every woman shall ask of her neighbor and the woman who lives in her house, articles of silver and articles of gold. First I don't know if I should care about it, but I want to ask, why God will have his people asking for gold and silver, if the place where God has taking them was to the desert. Kindly reply. God bless you!
Isaiah 10:6 I will send him against an hypocritical nation, and against the people of my wrath will I give him a charge, to take spoil, & to take prey, & to tread them down like the mire of the streets. God is giving Assyria permission to take a spoil from Judah, because of their sins of being godless. Assyria is allowed to steal, plunder, and loot.
@Naked truth,
It sounds like you do not speak the Truth! You are telling lies. Rightly divide THE WORD or be quiet because God will take away your part from the book of life!
Was commanding them to lie, steal or deceive? I don't believe that the angel of the Lord, or God was commanding them to lie, deceive, or steal. When we do evil in the sight of God, He doesn't tell of a specific thing that He will do, before He does it, it's just done. They weren't stealing anything that they didn't work for, or die for centuries to earn, He's not saying they would steal it, He said that it would be borrowed from the Egyptians, and yes to take valuables, or plunder means to take what they have earned.
Here in Revelation 10 the hour deliverance of Daniels people, Israel, is at hand ( Daniel 12:1; Romans 11:26), Israel is to be grafted in their own olive. This is the season when he finishes with the Gentiles, for it is the hour they are cut off from the olive tree because because of unbelief. In Revelation 10 the pillar of fire, the angel of the covenant visits his Gentile church, the tender mercy of of God: whereby the dayspring from on high hath visited us. It is the season of manifestation of sons, its the hour of deliverance from bondage to corruption ( Romans 8:18-23). It is the dispensation of the fulness of time ( Ephesians 1:10). It is a prophetic age ( Malachi 4:5-6; Revelation 10:7, 11). Paul in speaking to his people the Jews warned them: Beware therefore, least that come upon you, which is spoken of the prophets: Behold ye despisers and wonder and perish: for I do a work in your days, a work which you shall in no wise believe, though a man declare it unto you ( Acts 13:40-41). In Revelation 10:4 we read: seal those things the seven thunders uttered and write them not. The same voice said in ICorinthians 2:10 but hath revealed them by the spirit: for the spirit searcheth all things, the deep things of God. In Amos 3:7 we read we read the Lord will do nothing but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets. It is the age of the restoration of the word and the power. In verse 3, the angel or messenger of the covenant had a little book open: the making known of the words of the covenant, the restoration of all things; Malachi 4:5-6 season, Elias surely come and and restore all things (Mathew 17:11-12- note here the present and future application of these verses, for scripture has compound revelation). When God visited Israel to fulfill Genesis 49:24; 15:13-16 he descended in a flame of fire and sent Moses ( Exodus 3:1-9). This chapter is connected to Daniel 12, I Corinthians 14:51-52, 1 Thessalonians 4:13-17 and many other scriptures surrounding the second coming, both in old and new testament. A brief commentry has just been touched on this chapter.
Let me tell you something .. Jehovah was used for the Old testament .. We live in the New Testament now and do you find Jehovah in the New Testament. Jehovah was just another name for God .. Do you find them using Jehovahs name to cast out devils in the Old Testament ? NO ! Revelation 1:8 - I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty. ~ Jesus said this .. We are reading from Isaiah are we not ? Isaiah 9:6 - For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, *The mighty God*, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. Hey for Ian Wilson and the ones who "think" the name of the almighty should be Jehovah read this. 18 Let no man deceive himself. 1 Corinthians 3:18 If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise.
19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness.
20 And again, The Lord knoweth the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain.
Here is a little more Scripture for you . John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. John 1:14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. John 1:15 John bare witness of him, and cried, saying, This was he of whom I spake, He that cometh after me is preferred before me: for he was before me.
John 1:1 Tells us that "The Word was god" in John 1:14 it says "And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us ! " then it talks about how we beheld his "glory" .. let me add this .. In Isaiah (which is the Old Testament) 42:8 , It says " i am the Lord: that is my name: and my 'glory' will i not give to another ~ and in 1 Corinthians 2:8 is says " which none of the princes of this world knew: for had that known it, they would not have crucified the 'Lord of glory'. They would not have crucified Jesus if they knew that he was god wrapped in flesh! Let me add 1 Timothy 3:16 .. "And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit,soon of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world,received up into *glory* " !!
Exodus 3:14 - And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.

14 But their minds were blinded: for until this day remaineth the same vail untaken away in the reading of the old testament; which [vail] is done away in Christ.
15 But even unto this day, when Moses is read, the vail is upon their heart.
16 Nevertheless when it shall turn to the Lord, the vail shall be taken away.
18 But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, [even] as by the Spirit of the Lord.

There is ONLY ONE GOD. There is only ONE Saviour.

Many people are being so distracted with false teachers/television/radio - and not actually studying GOD'S WORD. THEIR relationship with GOD is steadily being polluted, until their will be no relationship. You look at T.V. and see the EPIC MOVIES - As the movies go along you shouild know what GOD says happens next. "THE TEN COMMANDMENTS" starring CHARLESTON HESTON. Has so many flause that people feel if they watch T.V. they don't have to study. TWO QUICK FLAUSE: the time they departed and pharaoh returning.
What I am saying is what GOD SAYS: "a LITTLE LEVEN, LEVENTH THE WHOLE LUMP.
PEOPLE will be quick to say MOSES spoke to GOD at the burning bush.
2 And the angel of the LORD appeared unto him in a flame of fire out of the midst of a bush: and he looked, and, behold, the bush burned with fire, and the bush [was] not consumed.
3 And Moses said, I will now turn aside, and see this great sight, why the bush is not burnt
Some people believe that the angel URIEL (meaning fire) spoke from the bush.
HEBREW: 14 Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation?
in exodus 3:14 it says that god's name is I AM,and god said that this is my name FOREVER,and this is my memorial unto all generations.So why isnt I AM being used when it clearly states that this is god's name?
In Exodus III 18-22 We see a direct command from the Lord, or whatever name you wish to address him with,to deceive, lie, and steal. This was carried out to the letter. How then, can we say this is God's will to do these things?
Jehovah was used in the old testament because the name GOD could no be said at the time so they used the name Jahovah. that changed with the new testament.
