In this message, Pastor James takes us through the story of Moses and the first nine plagues in Egypt, beginning with the Nile River turning to blood. Using historical and geographical context, James explains the significance of the Nile to the Egyptians and why it was chosen as the site for God’s demonstration of power.
Pastor James focuses on the confrontation between Moses and Pharaoh as the plagues escalate, starting with the first plague of turning the Nile to blood. He highlights how Pharaoh continually hardens his heart, even as each plague reveals God’s power. He draws practical application by challenging listeners to examine their own resistance to God’s work in their lives, comparing Pharaoh’s stubbornness to our tendency to cling to earthly comforts and security. He emphasizes the importance of repentance and turning toward God when confronted with areas of control or sin. The message concludes with a reminder that God’s goal is for His people to worship Him and make His name known throughout the world.
