Pray for the impossible...

I. Click here to READ Exodus 10 first.

II. One thing the Bible teaches: (The eighth plague came after Pharaoh refused to let God's  people go. And it went away after Pharaoh, as usual, confessed his sin...)

13 So Moses stretched out his staff over the land of Egypt, and the Lord directed an east wind on the land all that day and all that night; and when it was morning, the east wind brought the locusts . . . 19 So the Lord shifted the wind to a very strong west wind which took up the locusts and drove them into the Red Sea; not one locust was left in all the territory of Egypt.

III. Reflection

* Questions: How did the locusts come to and go from the land of Egypt?

IV. Application:

Dear Lord God: I thank You for showing me that the locusts neither came to nor went away from the land of Egypt. They were brought to the land and they were taken away from the land. O Lord God! It was You who directed the east wind to do Your will. And it was also You who shifted the west wind to accomplish Your will concerning the locust's plague. You actively orchestrated the whole event. I confess that You are the Almighty God. I thank You, Lord, for taking me to this point to remind me that the Lord Jesus calmed the sea. The Lord Jesus rebuked the wind. The Lord Jesus commanded the wind (Luke 8:25). And the Lord Jesus--the Immanuel--is with us now. I worship You. I pray that today with my small faith I will not be afraid to pray for something big to happen. You are the Almighty God. Amen

I pray for certain readers who have been against believing You. I pray that today is the day You will calm the beating wind in their doubtful hearts so that they can hear Your calling them to become the sheep of Your flock. Amen

One thing the Bible teaches  (The Lord selected for Gideon 300 men to fight against the innumerable military alliance of the Midianites, Amalekites, and others from the East.

One thing the Bible teaches:  (king Ahaziah relied on another god concerning his illness. The Lord sent a message to him through the prophet Elijah, saying...) 16 ...  Because you have sent messengers  to inquire of Baal-zebub, the god of Ekron—is it because there is no God in Israel to inquire of His word?—therefore  you shall not come down from the bed where you have gone up, but shall surely die. III. Reflection *  Questions :  Who was Baal-zebub? IV. Application Dear Lord God: I thank You for letting me know that You want Your people to inquire of You--only You. And when we do not, pitfalls are set up to cause us to  ask other gods for help. These gods could be disguised with an outer spiritual, scientific, technological, medical, or financial garment. And I may get involved with these gods in...
