God discriminates! He chooses, predestines, distinguishes his own from the world by their faith in Jesus. They receive mercy and grace, not justice and fairness. They get what they do not deserve and not what they do. This discrimination brings freedom. Join us as we examine Exodus 9:1-7 and consider the God who mercifully discriminates.
Does God care about you? Whether you live or die? If you are saved or damned? Or is grace just a by-product of a quest for glory? The glorious truth is that God does care about you. Join us as we examine Exodus 8:20-32 and see that God is not only with us, but He is for us.
Without warning, the third plague brought gnat swarms. Magicians mimicked other plagues, but now secret arts did not conjure gnats from dust. They cry “this is the finger of God.” Accept it or not, God’s finger points at us. But this is not the last word.
Listen as we examine Exodus 8:16-19 and consider hard truths about God’s judgement and the happy truth that in even in wrath God has remembered mercy through the gospel.
Faith grows when we put our weight upon faith’s object and it holds. Temporal things: skill, personality, talents, or circumstances will not hold up. God alone holds all things together, carries us, our sorrows and our afflictions. He alone will not give way. But have we learned this lesson? Listen as we examine Exodus 6:28-7:13 and consider some of the lessons learned by Moses about God’s promises and power – lessons we need to learn.
As Moses prepares to confront Pharaoh and initiate the most awesome display of spiritual power the ancient world had seen in the plagues, the Holy Spirit presses the pause button. He gives us a genealogy and reminds us of the importance of being faithful men and women, boys and girls, following Christ and leaving a legacy of following Christ. Listen as we examine Exodus 6:14-30 and consider the formative power of the ‘Faith of Our Fathers.’
