Exodus 7:1-13 That All May Know

That All May Know > Exodus 7:1-13 7:1-7 What, will, and why. The time for the big showdown with Pharaoh has come: Moses and Aaron are sent to proclaim what God will do, what he has promised all along: that he would rescue his people from out of Egypt. In so doing, all of Egypt would come to know that he is the Lord, the one true God. 7:8-13 Just as God said. The prelude to the plagues unfolds exactly as the Lord had said: Pharaoh isn’t open to the Lord’s command to let his people go. Instead, Pharaoh tries to dismiss God’s power through Moses and Aaron by having his own wise men use their wicked and counterfeit ways. Rapidly, the Lord will show Pharaoh and all of Egypt that nobody is as powerful as the living God! The Point: God is all-knowing, all-powerful, and completely sovereign. Pharaoh and all who oppose him will receive only judgment. But those who trust this God, who hope in him, shall have the Lord’s blessing forever. Prayer: Father, make us to see your greatness rather than our own. Keep us from giving our allegiance to any other. Instead, make us proclaimers of you and your glorious plan to save many from their sins. Thank you for rescuing us! Application: If you are not yet a Christian then it’s time to admit, believe, and confess that God is God and you are not. If you are a Christian, rejoice! Our God is King and all his promises are “yes” and “amen” in Jesus Christ! Here is how I will apply these truths: ___________________ __________________________________________________
