God's Signs and Wonders That Deliver Us From Pharaoh's Power - Torah Portion Va'era

Join Joe, Jakkie and Tommy as they deliver a message on the weekly Torah Portion, seeking for Yahshua (Jesus) and His love on every page. Every Friday 7pm UK Time, 2pm ET, 11am PT. ******* Va’era - “And I Appeared” Exodus 6:2 - 9:35 The Lord appears before Moses and for the first time reveals His divine name. He reveals how He appeared to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob as ‘El Shaddai’, which means God Almighty. Now though, He reveals His supernatural divine name of ‘YHVH’ (also transliterated as YHWH) composed of the Hebrew letters Yod, Hey, Vav, Hey, which reveals something about his eternal nature that had not been revealed previously. His character of judgment and attributes of action and recompense become apparent. God thus employs the four expressions of redemption to release His covenant people from slavery and bondage. He tells Moses that He will do the following: ‘Take the Children of Israel from Egypt, deliver them from their enslavement, redeem them, and acquire them to be His own chosen people on the face of the entire earth”, bringing them to the land He promised to the Patriarchs as their eternal heritage. Moses and Aaron are instructed to confront Pharaoh and demand the release of the Israelites. In an attempt to warn Pharaoh of his doomed fate, Aaron throws his staff to the ground and it turns to a snake. Pharaoh’s magicians are able to mimic this using their dark arts, however Aaron’s staff swallows up the magicians’ snakes as a show of divine strength and an insult to the image of power that Egypt submitted to. But Pharaoh remains hard-hearted. Time after time, Pharaoh continues to refuse the request of Moses. In response, Adonai then sends a series of plagues on Egypt. Seven of the ten plagues are revealed in this parsha, each portraying a direct attack on the powerless gods of Egypt, yet even so, Pharaoh’s heart remains hard and he does not let the Hebrews go. ******* *More Information* Want to learn more?
