Exodus 9 & 10 -- Singled Out And Protected

As I read about each successive plague, and how it affected only the Egyptians and their belongings, but not the Israelites, God brought to mind Psalm 91, which reads in part:

“Those who go to God Most High for safety will be protected by the Almighty … God will save you … from deadly diseases … and under His wings you can hide.  His truth will be Your shield and protection.  You will not fear any danger by night … You will not be afraid of diseases that come in the dark or sickness that strikes at noon.  At your side 1,000 people may die, or even 10,000 right beside you, but you will not be hurt.  You will only watch and see the wicked punished … “

Father, as these times continue to worsen, please place Your hand of protection over this place … Don’t allow suffering of Your people here, Father.  Place Your hedge of protection around us.  Gather us under Your wings and let the world marvel as they did about the Israelites in Egypt that harm does not touch us, because we trust in You.

Your Brother In Christ,
