WORD TO PONDER:  I HAVE HEARD YOUR GROANING  8/18/08

I have heard the groanings of My people and I have not abandoned you in your cries.  I have promised through My Name El Shaddai, that I will bring you out from your burdens of the taskmaster.  I will rescue you from your bondage and redeem you with My outstretched arm.  I will bring you into Your land flowing with milk and honey and your inheritance in the earth and heaven will be rich.  You are My people, and I will bring you out.  Fear not.  Trust not in the arm of flesh, trust in the hand of Your God, the One Whose arm is strong and mighty.

Ps 136:12-15 NKJV

With a strong hand, and with an outstretched arm, For His mercy endures forever;  To Him who divided the Red Sea in two, For His mercy endures forever;

And made Israel pass through the midst of it, For His mercy endures forever;  But overthrew Pharaoh and his army in the Red Sea, For His mercy endures forever.
