DAILY?READINGS: Gen. 41:1-49; Psalm 18:30-50; Matt. 24:1-28
And I will harden Pharaoh’s heart, that he shall follow after them… that the Egyptians may know that I am the LORD. Exodus 14:4
God allowed the Egyptians to pursue the Hebrews, not to overcome them, but so He could deliver them at the last moment. In this way the Egyptians would “know that God is the Lord.” God may allow trials in our lives in order to speak to the unsaved who are watching us. He may or may not deliver us but our Christ-like attitude in the midst of adversity will be a great testimony for Him. —David Croudace
Men will look at the life I lead,
See the side I take, and the things I love;
They judge my Lord by my every deed–
Lord set my affection on things above.—Author Unknown
