I have spared you

S: “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 power and to spread my fame throughout the earth.” Exodus 9:15-16 NLT

O: As all theses signs are being done against Pharoah and  his heart continued to be hard. God than says I could have just wiped you out and be done with you but what would that prove? I have saved you for a purpose! For my purpose, to show my power, to let the world know who I am!

A: Although this statement was to the Egyptians, I feel in my spirit God likewise is telling me, now look, I could have gone with someone else. I could have left at the first sight of doubt even after I have shown you who you are in me. But my daughter, oh lioness, I have spared you. For I have a purpose for you. To show my power and to spread my name, my fame around the earth. 

“GOD, the Master, The Holy of Israel, has this solemn counsel: “Your salvation requires you to turn back to me and stop your silly efforts to save yourselves. Your strength will come from settling down in complete dependence on me— 

Isaiah 30:15 MSG

P: Oh coming Messiah, I receive your counsel and pray humbly for an unhardened heart. I will be still and know you are God. In Jesus name, amen.
