Please read Exodus 10.

Meditate on this question from verse 3.
Thus says the LORD, “How long will you
refuse to humble yourself before Me?”
By chapter 10 of Exodus, Pharaoh’s refusal to humble himself before God resulted in:
· dead fish
· foul drinking water
· frogs in beds and bowls and heaps of dead frogs
· dust that became gnats throughout all the land
· houses swarming with insects
· horses, donkeys, camels, herds, and flocks dead from severe pestilence
· boils on animals and people
· hail that killed every man, beast, and plant left in the fields
· tree eating locusts and houses filled with locusts
· three days of darkness so dark it could be felt
Pharaoh did not submit to God, resulting in misery, darkness, and death to countless plants, animals, and people. Now examine yourself and the situations going on around you. How would others describe you? Are you a prideful person who brings darkness and misery to others? Or, are you a humble follower of Jesus who brings light and life to others?
Using the words from Exodus 10:1-3, pray for yourself and those for whom you stand guard as a faithful, prayerful watchman (Isaiah 62:6-7).
“LORD, do not let ________ and my heart be hardened.
Help us tell our children and grandchildren
about the signs You perform among us
that we may know You are the LORD.
May we not refuse to humble ourselves before You.
Because You are LORD Jesus~”
