Excerpt from Chapter 6: Don’t Turn Back:

One of the things I adore about the Father is that He takes time to make promises to His children then continues to remind them of those promises. Throughout the book of Exodus (or the bible for that matter) God continues to remind His children who He is and what He will do for them. If you are a parent, you know that sometimes you’ll make a promise to your child and you better get to it fast because they won’t let you forget. It’s interesting how children seem to not listen to a word you’re saying until they hear key words like “candy” or “ice cream”. Then they're all ears and they’re going to hold you to your promises. It can be quite frustrating when you have made a promise to your child, have made all the plans to execute, and have full intentions of making it happen but they question if or when you’re going to do it for them. It can almost be offensive with small children because they have no ability to take care of themselves, yet they question if you’re going to do what you said you’re going to do. I believe God feels the same with us. He makes a promise to us, works everything out with full intentions of carrying out His promise, has supreme power and can do anything yet we question if He’s going to do it or His timing. We see in chapter six of Exodus that God does not forget His covenant. God is itching to carry out His promises in your life.
