Angel Of The Lord, Eric Bauer; 3/1/09

Key Verse:

"Now Gideon perceived that He was the Angel of the Lord. So Gideon said, ―Alas, O Lord God! For I have seen the Angel of the Lord face to face." Judges 6:22

What makes this angel unique is that He speaks, acts, and responds to people not just as a messenger of God, but as God Himself. For instance, in Gen. 16, the angel of the Lord appears to Hagar in the wilderness and gives her this promise: "I will multiply your descendants exceedingly, so that they shall not be counted for multitude" (v. 10). "Then she called the name of the Lord who spoke to her, You-Are-the-God-Who-Sees" (v. 13). The angel in this passage promises something that only God can do, and says that He will do it Himself (in the first person).

God keeps his promises

God has been working for a long time to keep promises.
