Isaiah 43:1-4,10-11 [1] But now, O Israel, the LORD who created you says: "Do not be afraid, for I have ransomed you. I have called you by name; you are mine. [2] When you go through deep waters and great trouble, I will be with you. When you go through rivers of difficulty, you will not drown! When you walk through the fire of oppression, you will not be burned up; the flames will not consume you. [3] For I am the LORD, your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior... [4] ... you are precious to me. You are honored, and I love you.
[10] ... You have been chosen to know me, believe in me, and understand that I alone am God. There is no other God; there never has been and never will be. [11] I am the LORD, and there is no other Savior.
My son shot a Kudu and thought it was dead but it was still alive. On going with his knife to slaughter it, the kudu kicked his feet out under him. He fell flat on his stomach and face. The knife penetrated from his jaw to his ear just missing the artery. Praise God
