Who am I? My relationship with God through prayer (part 23)


God multitasks for me and for all of His people. God delivers. That’s the promise in Nehemiah 9:27 and Judges 16:28-30. He delivers me, even from severe medical problems that I have had in the past, as He delivered Samson and strengthened him. He delivered me, when I turn to Him as God the Almighty and Father, from oppressors, as in Judges 3:9,15 and 4:3,23,24. As He delivered the people of Israel and allowed them to return and re-build the temple, He delivers me especially when my desire is to do His work. And He answers prayers. He gave Manoah a child in Judges 13:8,9 and answered David’s question in 1 Samuel 30:8 about pursuing an enemy. In 2 Samuel 2:3 God answered David about whether to go into Judah or Hebron. God answers prayers and delivers me, as in Psalm 118:5 and gives me as in Psalms 138:3. God instructs me, as He did Moses in Numbers 12:13-15 and again in Psalms 99:6. He hears my cries for help, as He did Moses in Egypt  (Exodus 2:23-25). And He tells me His history in His Word, as He did in Acts 7:34 and in the entire chapter of Hebrews 11.
