“Yet now, if You will forgive their sin—but if not, I pray, blot me out of Your book which You have written.” Exodus 32:32
Israel had failed. After witnessing miracle after miracle as Jehovah delivered them from Egypt, they decided to worship a calf instead. Not even a real calf.
Moses interceded for them. He begged God to forgive Israel’s sin.
Moses understood the seriousness of the offenses. He had experienced the holiness of God.
He offered his own life for Israel.
God answered Moses’s prayer.
I know people who have strayed from the faith, people who have never embraced faith.
What if I prayed for them the way Moses prayed for Israel?
