  • Exodus 9:13-35 That All May Know

    Exodus 9:13-35 That All May Know
    Nov 2 2025
    9:13-21 None like Him. The Lord pulls back the curtain, revealing His own mercy in being patient with Pharaoh and Egypt, even warning them of the coming plague of hail. Yet, Pharaoh’s heart is also revealed: heavy and rebellious toward the Lord, unwilling to even protect his own people and livestock. 9:22-26 Protecting His people. Once the plague of hail arrives, the Lord’s power is shown in that He protects all who trust Him – the Hebrews in Goshen specifically, but also any Egyptians who listened to His warning (v20). 9:27-35 That all may know. Pharaoh wants the hail to stop and will say anything to get to that point, but his heart isn’t genuinely repentant. Pharaoh will not bend to the Lord, just as God had told Moses beforehand. The Point: The sovereign God of the all the Universe is the only one who can rescue and save from sins. He alone is to be rightly feared and worshipped – no other. Prayer: Father, it is so easy for us to place our trust elsewhere – in ourselves, our skills, our money or technology. Anywhere else but you. But you are the only one who saves, you are the only one who can rescue us. Give us soft hearts, not heavy ones: hearts that delight in Christ alone. Application: Who do you trust? If anyone or anything other than the one true God, you are setting yourself up for devastating loss. Trust in the Lord, call upon Him in faith.

  • Exodus 9:1-12 Love and Judgment

    Exodus 9:1-12 Love and Judgment
    Nov 1 2025
    9:1-7 Death arrives. The reality is that sin leads to death (Romans 6:23), and that truth is held out as a warning to Pharaoh in these verses. Sadly, even when the judgment is carried out upon the livestock of Egypt – even when Pharaoh has undeniable proof that the God of Israel has the power to both bring plagues and distinguish between His people and the Egyptians – Pharaoh continues to rebel against God. 9:8-12 Sickness comes. For the first time in the plagues, sickness comes and affects the Egyptians. Even Pharaoh’s magicians are afflicted by this plague and are unable to counter it in any way. Yet, Pharaoh continues in his rebellion. His hardness of heart has become such that he is unwilling to let the Hebrews free; he has become enslaved to his sin. The Point: Sin leads to death. There is no getting around this simple fact – and it would be the end that every one of us receives had it not been for the Lord’s grace and mercy, offered to us through trusting Jesus Christ for salvation. Prayer: Lord, thank you for rescuing us from ourselves. Teach us to trust you even as we suffer at the hands of those who embrace sin. Give us a faith and a hope that is larger than our circumstances, knowing and believing that you are the God who saves His people. Application: Our world denies that sin leads to death, yet the God of the Universe says that it most definitely does. Who will you believe? Who will you trust and follow? Here is how I will apply these truths: ___________________ __________________________________________________

  • Exodus 8:16-32 The God Who Rescues and Judges

    Exodus 8:16-32 The God Who Rescues and Judges
    Oct 25 2025
    8:16-19 Unique acts. Unlike the previous two plagues, we find that this one cannot be duplicated by Pharaoh’s magicians. The Lord is showing His unique power over and above Pharoah because He alone is the God of the universe. 8:20-24 Unique words. As the plagues progress, a further distinction appears: God’s people will not always suffer on account of Pharaoh’s rebellion and wickedness. The Lord has the power to distinguish between His people and the Egyptians and to limit and direct the effects of the plague. 8:25-32 Common hardness. Ultimately, despite clear and undeniable signs of God’s power which is greater than Pharaoh’s, the king of Egypt remains in his sin, he and his nation suffering on account of his rebellion. The Point: But for the grace of God, each of us is every bit as sinful as Pharaoh and every bit as in need of the Savior. Praise God that Jesus Christ has given His heart in place of our sin-hardened one! Prayer: Heavenly Father, thank you for Jesus – thank you for His heart toward sinners like us, rescuing us from ourselves and from the sinful world around us. Form us so that we would treasure Jesus and respond to Him in ongoing faith from this day until the wonderful day when He returns. Application: Sin is worse than we think, yet God is better than we think. Do you trust Jesus? How will you live in response to Him? Who will you tell of this Savior? Here is how I will apply these truths: ___________________ __________________________________________________
