God wanted to spare Israel, but couldn't because there was no intercessor. God wants to save us, heal us, direct our lives, our work, etc., but won't force His will on us against our wills. If we want His life, we must surrender our lives.

Moses seems very comfortable with God, even to challenge God: “You don’t go with us, we don’t go!” Moses is praying real prayers here, nothing held back. And what is even more amazing ...read more
