One item that is important on the agenda of God is that of order. Countless examples in scripture demonstrate the order that God used in both creating and maintaining our world. Are your steps ordered by the Lord? Psalms 37:23. Reading the first chapter of Genesis, we can see an orderliness in the manner in which God proceeded from one creative act to the other.
When we think of the Exodus, Moses led over a 600,000 people out of Egypt, not counting women and children. They marched in orderly ranks. “So God led the people around by the way of ...

Heaven and Earth Passed?, Part 2, the reader
