Psalms 103:7

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

He made known his ways unto Moses, his act unto the children of Israel. Bless him for this.

He made known his ways unto Moses, his acts unto the children of Israel. He is a God who makes himself known.

But you and I have a revelation in the New Testament—not made to Moses this time, but to...

The LORD is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy. Surely, dear friends, we can all bless God for this truth; for, if he had been quick to be angry, where should we have been?
