The LORD, the LORD, the compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness, Exodus 34:6
To end this month's meditations about God, I want to use God's own words He says to Moses when He tells Moses who He is, for us to meditate on this week. These same words are repeated almost verbatim in Numbers 14, Nehemiah 9, Psalm 86, Psalm 103, Joel 2 and Jonah 4. As I have already said earlier, I'm saying very little about each day's meditation. I want the Spirit to reveal to you what you need to hear. Please feel free to share your own thoughts each day with the group. Meditate. Meditate. Meditate.
The LORD: Jehovah (the existing one). The proper name of the one true God.
Here are four other versions of this same verse.
The LORD, the LORD God, merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abounding in goodness and truth, NKJV
The LORD, the LORD God, compassionate and gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in lovingkindness and truth, NASB
YUD-HEH-VAH-HEH!!! Yud-Heh-Vav-Heh [ADONAI] is God, merciful and compassionate, slow to anger, rich in grace and truth; Complete Jewish Bible
God, God, a God of mercy and grace, endlessly patient--so much love, so deeply true-- The Message
