10. And Moses and Aaron went in unto Pharaoh, and they did so as the LORD had commanded: and Aaron cast down his rod before Pharaoh, and before his servants, and it became a serpent.
11. Then Pharaoh also called the wise men and the sorcerers: now the magicians of Egypt, they also did in like manner with their enchantments.
12. For they cast down every man his rod, and they became serpents: but Aaron’s rod swallowed up their rods.
I read this Scripture reference a few weeks back…
Exodus 7:12 makes me lavishly grin each and every time I read it!
It reverts me back to my youthful childhood days when kids used to say, “My Daddy is bigger than your daddy!”
Indeed, we serve the SAME BIG GOD today as the Israelites hundreds of years ago!
No earthly man, nor any other god (little g-o-d) could stop the hand of the one-and-only, MIGHTY GOD of all creation from freeing His children from the bondage of slavery. No siree!!!
So what mountain do you need moved today?
What obstacles lie in your way?
What trial has you weighted down?
What heavy burdens are you struggling to carry?
May I encourage you to trust your MIGHTY BIG GOD to handle those matters so dear to your heart? I need this reminder often, and so I hope it will inspire to you today to keep walking in faith as well.
