Parashat Va’era
God’s faithfulness remains constant through every season of life. The name HaShem reveals God’s covenant loyalty and eternal nature – He was, He is, and He will always be. While the patriarchs knew God as El Shaddai, the miracle-working provider, Moses and the Israelites would experience HaShem’s covenant faithfulness through their deliverance from Egypt.
God’s timing is perfect, even when circumstances seem to contradict His promises. Just as He remembered His covenant with Abraham and delivered Israel with four expressions of redemption, He continues to be faithful to His people today. Through both valleys and mountaintops, God knows us by name and works all things according to His perfect plan.
