#892 - FOUR FACETS OF THE COMPASSION OF GOD

During those many days the king of Egypt died, and the people of Israel groaned because of their slavery and cried out for help. Their cry for rescue from slavery came up to God. And God heard their groaning, and God remembered his covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob. God saw the people of Israel—and God knew. Exodus 2:23-25

  1. God heard their prayers.

    • Every cry. Every groan. Every care. Every prayer you pray…God hears them all.

    • “And this is the confidence that we have toward him, that if we ask anything according to his will he hears us.” 1 John 5:14

  2. God remembered His promise.

    • Every covenant. Every promise. Every commitment. Every guarantee that God has ever made…God remembers them all.

    • “He remembers his covenant forever, the word that he commanded, for a thousand generations…” Psalm 105:8

  3. God saw His people.

    • God isn’t blind. God isn’t ignorant. God isn’t unaware. Every person, in every place, during every time…God sees them all.

    • So she called the name of the Lord who spoke to her, “You are a God of seeing,” for she said, “Truly here I have seen him who looks after me.” Genesis 16:13

  4. God knew His plan.

    • Every detail. Every twist. Every turn. Every way God’s perfect will is going to be fulfilled…God knows them all.

    • “For whenever our heart condemns us, God is greater than our heart, and he knows everything.” 1 John 3:20

God hears. God remembers. God sees. God knows.
