Today's Verse: Exodus 9:29 (KJV)

Saturday, September 29, 2012

And Moses said unto him, As soon as I am gone out of the city, I will spread abroad my hands unto the Lord; and the thunder shall cease, neither shall there be any more hail; that thou mayest know how that the earth is the Lord's.
— Exodus 9:29 (KJV)

Thoughts on Today's Verse...

When Moses confronted Pharaoh and was met only by the hardness of Pharaoh's heart, God sent the plagues. Why? Because God wanted Pharaoh to know that Israel's God wasn't just another god, but that the Lord was the Only True and Living God. The nations, the seasons, and the earth are his. All people must come to revere his name and receive his grace.

My Prayer...

God of all the universe and of all that I can imagine, experience, or see, I praise you and proclaim you to be God indeed. In Jesus' name I praise you. Amen.
