Isaiah 63:7-14
7I''ll make a list of GOD''s gracious dealings, all the things GOD has done that need praising, All the generous bounties of GOD, his great goodness to the family of Israel--Compassion lavished, love extravagant.
8He said, "Without question these are my people, children who would never betray me." So he became their Savior.
9In all their troubles, he was troubled, too. He didn''t send someone else to help them. He did it himself, in person. Out of his own love and pity he redeemed them. He rescued them and carried them along for a long, long time.d
10But they turned on him; they grieved his Holy Spirit. So he turned on them, became their enemy and fought them.e
11Then they remembered the old days, the days of Moses, God''s servant: "Where is he who brought the shepherds of his flock up and out of the sea? And what happened to the One who set his Holy Spirit within them?
12Who linked his arm with Moses'' right arm, divided the waters before them, Making him famous ever after,
13and led them through the muddy abyss as surefooted as horses on hard, level ground?
14Like a herd of cattle led to pasture, the Spirit of GOD gave them rest." That''s how you led your people! That''s how you became so famous!
