FAITH CAPSULE: Call on God to send one more plague on the Pharaoh that will not let you go.
Exodus 11, 12:1-42
When it was time for God to bring the Israelites out of the bondage of over four hundred years, He spoke to Moses “But I am sure that the king of Egypt will not let you go, no, not even by a mighty hand. So I will stretch out My hand and strike Egypt with all My wonders which I will do in its midst; and after that he will let you go. (Exodus 3:19-20)
God knew that Pharaoh will not let go the Israelites by a mighty hand but by His stretched out hand (outstretch hand) Truly Pharaoh saw mighty hand of God through nine painful plagues and he repeatedly deny the Israelites their salvation. When it was time for the outstretched hand to manifest for the salvation of the Israelites, it was through uncommon wonder, outstretched hand deliver a wonder which was above all kinds of wonders, it was a wonder that was never in place before then.
It is written, “And the Lord said to Moses, “I will bring one more plague on Pharaoh and on Egypt. Afterward he will let you go from here. When he lets you go, he will surely drive you out of here altogether.” (Exodus 11:1) The name of the outstretched hand wonder is “one more plague on Pharaoh” Is there any representative of Pharaoh in your life? It is time to call on God to send one more plague on the Pharaoh that will not let you go.
One more plague was the tenth plague which took place at the midnight hour. At the midnight hour, the Lord struck the entire first born in the land of Egypt without exception, including that of Pharaoh. The bible recorded, “So Pharaoh rose in the night, he, all his servants, and all the Egyptians; and there was a great cry in Egypt, for there was not a house where there was not one dead. Then he called for Moses and Aaron by night, and said, “Rise, go out from among my people, both you and the children of Israel. And go, serve the Lord as you have said. Also take your flocks and your herds, as you have said, and be gone; and bless me also.” (Exodus 12:31-32) What a mighty God we serve? If what you have been calling on the forces that will not let you go is the mighty hand of God, there is a need to also call for the outstretched hand of God. It is not a sin to ask for more. However, where asking is less, it becomes an evidence of less expectation. God is a good God ask for more and He will not fail to answer.
Prayer for today: Ask for the outstretched hand of God to answer on your behalf in every challenging area of your life.
