Moses continues to do Gods work and show Pharaoh miracles that even his magicians can't do. OK call me girly but Moses tells Aaron to rais the staff over all the rivers, canals and ponds of Egypt and BOOM frogs came out of the waters everywhere and covered the land. They were in the beds, ovens, kneading bowls you name it and kermit was there! Pharaoh throws in the towl and asks Moses "Plead with the Lord to take the frogs away from me and my people. I will let your people go, so they can offer sacrifices to the Lord." So Moses does and the frogs all drop dead so the Egyptians pilled them up.....stinky. Pharaoh didn't tell Moses he had his fingers crossed and he refuses to let the people go just as the Lord had predicted. This goes on with a few more miracles - gnats, swarms of flies, deadly plagues on the animals. Pharaoh keeps refusing to let the people go because God had hardened his heart.
Then the Lord said to Moses, "Get up early in the morning and stand before Pharaoh. Tell him, This is what the Lord, the God of the Hebrews, says: Let my people go, so they can worship me. If you don't, I will send more plagues on you and your officials and your people. Then you will know that there is no one like me in all the earth. By now I could have lifted my hand and struck you and your people with a plague to wipe you off the face of the earth. But I have spared you for a purpose-to show you my powere and to spread my fame throught the earth. But you still lord it over my people and refuse to let them go. So tomorrow at this time I will send a hailstorm more devastating thean any in all the history of Egypt." And he doesn't so God does.......
Matthew today Jesus gives more insight to the disciples and they ask him "Then who in the world can be saved?"
Jeaparsus looked at them intently and said, "Humanly speaking, it is impossible. But with God everything is possible." All I have to say is Amen to that!
