Please read Exodus 6.

Meditate on this phrase from verses 2, 6, 7, 8, and 29
I am the LORD.
God said, “I am the LORD” five times in Exodus 6. He said it
as a statement of fact, as a name by which He would make Himself known, as an
assurance that He would deliver and redeem His people from bondage, as a
guarantee that He would keep His Word, and as the reason Moses was to obey and
speak all that the LORD spoke to him.
Notice the responses of the people to the LORD. Because of
their bondage and state of despondency, the Israelites refused to listen to
what the LORD said through Moses (v. 9). And Moses continued to make excuses
for not wanting to obey the LORD (v. 12, 30).
“I am the LORD.” This is God, the self-existent, eternal
Master who has supreme power and authority over you. His Word to Moses is His
Word to you: “I am the LORD. I will keep My Word. I want to deliver and redeem
you from your bondage. Obey Me as Master, Ruler, King, and LORD of your life.”
Pray Exodus 6:6-7 and 29 over yourself and those for whom
you stand guard as a faithful, prayerful watchman (Isaiah 62:6-7).
“You are LORD.
Bring __________ and me out from under our burdens
and deliver us from our
bondage.
Redeem us with an outstretched arm and with great judgments.
Take us as Your people and be our God.
Let us know that You are the
LORD our God
who brought us out from under our burdens.
Help us to obey all that You
speak to us.
Because You are LORD Jesus~”
