Burning bush VIII

*22/03/2026* *40 DAYS FASTING AND PRAYERS* *FOURTH SUNDAY SERVICE* TOPIC: *WHAT DOES GOD DO?* CONTINUING PROVISION AND PRESENCE  - God will sometimes overrule the natural order by the miraculous  True Miracles  Burning bush VIII Exodus 3:1-10 Then God gives Moses his orders, beginning with a strong imperative: GO (Exodus 3:10). The command is precise and there is no way round it. Moses is to confront Pharaoh and *bring my people out of Egypt*. He is to be the instrument that God will use to fulfill his promise to deliver the people from slavery. God’s call to Moses reveals what sets the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob apart from the local gods. He is personal (‘your’ God), faithful (he keeps his promise to the Israelites’ ancestors), compassionate (he identifies with the sufferings of his people), and sovereign (he summons people and gives orders). *©️2026* *Ecumenican Church Nigeria ™️* WhatsApp/Telegram: *+2348052366039* Email: *johnifesanya@gmail.com* *www.johnifesanya...

Burning bush VI

Exodus 3:8a For God to ‘come down’ indicates a very special movement, an exceptional intervention of the Most High in human history. Moses is the instrument, indeed the incarnation, of this divine intervention. *©️2026* *Ecumenican Church Nigeria ™️* WhatsApp/Telegram: *+2348052366039* Email: *johnifesanya@gmail.com* *www.johnifesanya.blogspot.com* *#ECN Ibadan #* Powered by *JDIS*

He gave two fundamental reasons, both expressed in anthropomorphic language, that is, language that is associated with our human experience. The first reason is that God has seen, heard and reacted with concern to the sufferings of his people at the hands of their Egyptian oppressors.

Burning bush IV

*08/03/2026* *40 DAYS FASTING AND PRAYERS* *SECOND SUNDAY SERVICE* TOPIC: *WHAT DOES GOD DO?* CONTINUING PROVISION AND PRESENCE  - God will sometimes overrule the natural order by the miraculous  True Miracles  Burning bush IV Exodus 3:1-10 Because God is present, the ground where Moses is standing is declared to be holy. He is told not to come any closer and take off his sandals as a sign of humility and worship. Exodus 3:5 Joshua 5:15 God then introduces himself as the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob, and thus the father of Israel. Exodus 3:6 Exodus 3:15-16 Moses needs to know, exactly which god is speaking. He had been raised in a polytheistic court and would inevitably have been familiar with the many Egyptian gods, so there is nothing redundant or unnecessary about this repetition. Moreover, this identification is the basis on which Moses will be instructed to make his appeal to the people in Exodus 3:15-16. *©️2026* *Ecumenican Church Nigeria ™...

Burning bush III

*04/03/2026* *40 DAYS FASTING AND PRAYERS* *MID WEEK SERVICE* TOPIC: *WHAT DOES GOD DO?* CONTINUING PROVISION AND PRESENCE  - God will sometimes overrule the natural order by the miraculous  True Miracles  Burning bush III Exodus 3:1-10 The liberation of the children of Israel was an impossible task from a human viewpoint. But the striking way in which God manifests himself here demonstrates that he would direct everything and that he would do so perfectly without being subject to human constraints. God is going to demonstrate his omnipotence. Once Moses’ curiosity attracts him to the bush, God calls him twice by name from within the bush (Exodus 3:4a). The call is specific and insistent. Moses responds with *Here I am* (Exodus 3:4b). These words are an indication of openness to hear and obey God, and are spoken elsewhere in the Bible by Abraham (Genesis 22:11), Jacob (Genesis 46:2) and Samuel ( 1 Samuel 3:4). *©️2026* *Ecumenican Church Nigeria ™️* WhatsApp/Telegram: *+2...

Burning bush II

*01/03/2026* *40 DAYS FASTING AND PRAYERS* *THANKSGIVING SERVICE* TOPIC: *WHAT DOES GOD DO?* CONTINUING PROVISION AND PRESENCE  - God will sometimes overrule the natural order by the miraculous  True Miracles  Burning bush II Exodus 3:1-10 The place where God chose to reveal himself was Mount Horeb, also known as Mount Sinai (Exodus 3:1). Later, God would reveal himself to Moses again in the same location and give him his law (Exodus 19:20; 24:13-18). Infact, God promised Moses such a meeting in Exodus 3:12. Here God attracts Moses’ attention by using a strange sight - a bush that burns without burning up (Exodus 3:2-3). The fire is said to represent the angel of the Lord, that is, the angelic form in which God at times reveals himself to humans (Exodus 3:4; Genesis 16:9). In Exodus 19:18, fire will again symbolize the presence of God. *Tithes & Offering* Genesis 14:18-20 Account name:  *The Ecumenican Church* Account number: 2280020397 Banker: *Eco Bank Nig. Ltd...
