There was Light

Scripture:

“So Moses lifted his hand to the sky, and a deep darkness covered the entire land of Egypt for three days. During all that time the people could not see each other, and no one moved. But there was light as usual where the people of Israel lived.”
‭‭Exodus‬ ‭10:22-23‬ ‭NLT‬‬

Observation:

This verse speaks about one of the final plagues God brought on Egypt.  he brought deep darkness on the land of Egypt for three days, yet there was light as usual where the people fo Israel lived.  The people of Israel were living within the borders of Egypt, yet when Egypt was being judged, God made sure His people were spared from what the Egyptians were getting.

Application:

God always has a way of escape for His people when He is judging others.  Noah escaped God’s wrath, Israel escaped His wrath on Egypt, and the list goes on.  God is faithful to take care of His own people, even when He is judging those around us.  If He can make it light for the people fo Israel when all Egypt was dark, God has the ability to protect his people.  He is y protector and He does an amazing job at it.

Prayer:

Lord God Almighty, You are faithful and trustworthy.  Help me to trust You more and more.  Help me to know deep in my heart that You don’t allow Your wrath to touch those who are Yours.  You are truly my protector and the lifter of my head.

Yours,
Jeff
