Moses said, when the Lord saw the wickedness of the children of Israel, who made and were worshiping a golden idol. “…the LORD spoke to me, saying, ‘I have seen this people, and indeed they are a stiff-necked people. Let Me alone, that I may DESTROY THEM and blot out their name from under heaven…” (Deut. 9:13-14)
Moses cried out to God in earnest WILL, to spare the people because, he said, “I was afraid of the anger and hot displeasure with which the LORD was angry WITH YOU, to destroy you. But the LORD LISTENED TO ME at that time also. And the LORD was very angry with Aaron and would have destroyed him; so I PRAYED for Aaron also at the same time…Thus I prostrated myself before the LORD; forty days and forty nights I kept prostrating myself, because the LORD had said He would destroy you.” (Deut. 9:19-20, 25)
The Lord honored the prayers of Moses and this happened WILL, “…the LORD passed before him and proclaimed, “The LORD, the LORD GOD, merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abounding in goodness and truth, keeping mercy for thousands, FORGIVING INIQUITY AND TRANSGRESSION AND SIN…” (Exo. 34:6-7)
OUR GOD IS A MERCIFUL GOD WHO HONORS OUR PRAYERS…
