Encouragement

‘You yourselves have seen what I did to Egypt, and how I carried you on eagles' wings and brought you to myself. Now if you obey me fully and keep my covenant, then out of all nations you will be my treasured possession. Although the whole earth is mine, you will be for me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation.’  Ex 19:4-6

The Lord is my strength and my song; he has become my salvation. He is my God, and I will praise him. Ex 15:2

In your unfailing love you will lead the people you have redeemed.
In your strength you will guide them to your holy dwelling. Ex 15:13

Do not be afraid. Stand firm and you will see the deliverance the Lord will bring you today. Ex 24:13

The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still.  Ex 14:14

But I have raised you up for this very purpose, that I might show you my power and that my name might be proclaimed in all the earth.
Exodus 9:16

God, who answered me in the day of my distress and who has been with me wherever I have gone. Gen 35:3

The Lord said to him, “Who gave man his mouth? Who makes him deaf or mute? Who gives him sight or makes him blind? Is it not I, the Lord? Now go; I will help you speak and will teach you what to say. 
Ex 4:11-12

God's character

I am compassionate. Ex 22:27

The LORD is greater than all other Gods. Ex 18:11
The LORD will reign for ever and ever. Ex 15:18
There is no one like the LORD our God. Ex 8:10
I am the LORD. 7:5
I am God Almighty. Gen 35:11
