E100-18

 

The Ten Plagues

Exodus 6:28—11:10

Kevin's Commentary (link to commentary)

You are encouraged to go through steps or process scripture in these steps:

  • Pray = in anticipation of what God wants you to discover. God, You are a holy God who is right and good in all You do. I give You my worship and all honor.
  • Read = with purpose look for what God is trying to communicate. You may want to read out of several translations and highlight key words.
  • Reflect = on the context and put yourself in the shoes of people at that time. God judged Egypt harshly with the plagues. Do you think God still judges nations today? If so, what are some reasons for that judgment and some examples of it?
    • God is ... What do we learn about God?
    • We are ... What do we learn about people?
    • God was clearly involved in the affairs of Egypt at that time. How involved do you think God is in the world today? Explain your answer and give examples.
    • Some people think that natural disasters, like the plagues on Egypt, are expressions of God’s judgment. What do you think?
  • Apply = information without application is fruitless. Decide on some practical steps you can take for fulfill what God wants you to do. Whenever you read or hear the news today, pray and ask God to lead your nation in ways that will avoid his judgment. Pray also for your nation’s leaders.
  • Pray = yielding to God to empower you to do what the word convicted you to do. Lord, You are an upright and fair judge. May our people live so that You won’t judge us as You did Egypt.
