A Historical Review of God's Mercy
Isaiah 63:7-14
7
I will recall the grace of ADONAI and the praises of ADONAI, because of all that ADONAI has granted us and his great goodness toward the house of Isra'el, which he bestowed on them in keeping with his mercy, in keeping with the greatness of his grace.
8
For he said, "They are indeed my people, children who are not disloyal." So he became their Savior.
9
In all their troubles he was troubled; then the Angel of His Presence saved them; in his love and pity he redeemed them. He had lifted them up and carried them throughout the days of old.
10
However, they rebelled, they grieved his Holy Spirit; so he became their enemy and himself fought against them.
11
But then his people remembered the days of old, the days of Moshe: "Where is he who brought them up from the sea with the shepherds of his flock? Where is he who put his Holy Spirit right there among them,
12
who caused his glorious arm to go at Moshe's right hand? He divided the water ahead of them, to make himself an eternal name;
13
he led them through the deep like a sure-footed horse through the desert;
14
like cattle going down into a valley the Spirit of ADONAI had them rest. This is how you led your people, to make yourself a glorious name."
