Exodus 9:1-12 Digging Deeper Holes

The fifth plague killed all Egyptian livestock that were in the fields.  Pharaoh had been given 24 hours to release the Israelites, but his heart was hardened.  God had also promised that Israel's livestock would be fine.  Pharaoh even sent inspectors to see if that was true.

Without warning, God hit them with the sixth plague.  Following His directions, Moses and Aaron took handfuls of ashes from the lime-kilns to Pharaoh's palace and threw them into the air, where the wind caught them and spread them all over the country.  The ashes caused festering boils to immediately develop all over the Egyptians' bodies.  Yet Pharaoh still did not relent!  

Father, please don't let me become stubborn again.  Call out to me and draw me back when I sin.  I don't want to be out of Your presence.

Your Brother In Christ,
Gary Ford
