🩸 When God Passes Over: A Matter of Life and Death

Have you ever found yourself in a moment where your next decision didn’t just affect you — but everyone around you? That was Pharaoh’s moment. Egypt’s destiny, Israel’s deliverance, and even the future of his own household all hung in the balance.

This wasn’t just a battle of wills. It was a final call. A divine invitation to surrender. But Pharaoh’s refusal — despite plague after plague — brought unimaginable sorrow, not just on himself, but upon an entire nation.

God doesn’t force our hand. He calls, warns, and waits. And He gives us what we need to choose right:

📖 1 Corinthians 1:30 (KJBPNV)

“‭But of him are you in the Messiah Yahshua, who of God is made to us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption:”

In our own stubbornness, we often know what’s right — but simply don’t want to do it. Let’s not be like Pharaoh. Let’s be the ones who listen, obey, and bless others because of our faithfulness.

💭 Questions to Reflect On:

• Am I resisting God in any area where I already know His will?
• Do I pray for wisdom when making decisions that affect others?
• How can I help prevent others from suffering because of my choices?

🙏 A Simple Prayer:

Lord, when life calls for hard choices, help me choose obedience. Let my heart be soft to Your voice, and may my decisions lead others toward life, not loss. Amen.
