And the Lord went before them

Exodus 13:21  And the  Lord  went before them by day in a pillar of cloud to lead them along the way, and by night in a pillar of fire to give them light, that they might travel by day and by night.  22  The pillar of cloud by day and the pillar of fire by night did not depart from before the people. Night or Day the guidance of God will lead you.  When you repent ( walk out of Egypt), and surrender to his leadership ( by faith in baptism in His name and receiving his Spirit), He will be exactly what you need in all seasons. His Spirit will not ever depart from you.  To find out more about this life-transforming experience feel free to email us at onemessage.onefaith@gmail.com.

A few times, the scripture indicates Moses and Aaron are given a task to execute tog...
