Discuss Exodus 10 Page 2

this chapter shows Jehovah God is always in control. Pharaoh was raised up by God for the very purpose that was happening in Egypt to the people of Israel so that God could show the Egyptians as well as His own that He is all powerful. As the chapter progressed and I read it, a fear grew inside of me for Pharaoh as he kept defying God….since God raised Pharaoh up for the very purpose of defiance in refusing to let the people go, I wonder if Pharaoh could have had the choice to change and humble himself before God and really let the people go or was he doomed to make the decisions he made and stick to them…..we know the Lord is always in control…Pharaoh was always asked to let the people go and the reason why…so he must have had a choice to do so up to that point…he would say yes and than back down and refuse as the Lord hardened his heart so that the Lord could glorify Himself….seems sort of unfair to Pharaoh that he thought he was in control but in reality, he was chosen and raised up by the Lord to do exactly what he was doing as he refused over and over again to let the people of Israel go out from the land of Egypt into the wilderness to worship and do sacrifice to the Lord. But the Egyptians both seeing and living the plagues and knowing they were sent from the God of Israel would come to believe in Jehovah and his power whether or not they converted…..and I guess that was Gods ultimate plan …to show His power and realness to those people as well as His own, Israel.

That is a strong verse because the words of the lord is powerful which destroyer the enemies so let respect the words of our God.

BEING STRONGE IS A GOOD THING. BEING STRONGE IN A WRONGE THING IS NOT GOOD.
PHARAOH ALLOWED IS PRIDE TO INTERFERE WITH GOOD JUDGEMENT. HOW OFTEN DOES THIS HAPPEN EVERYDAY. WE AS CHRISTIANS ARE SUPPOSE TO LEAN ON GOD'S JUDGEMENT, WHETHER IT FAVORS US OR NOT. OUR PRIDE IS THE PRIME TOOL OF THE DEVIL.
