REPEAT TO PHARAOH EVERYTHING I TELL
Exodus 6: 28-7: 13

The LORD called Moses, sent him and said to him, I am the Lord, repeat to Pharaoh everything I say. As the ruler of history, the Lord sent him to say to Pharaoh what he will do against him. Perhaps Pharaoh king had an illusion that he was the ruler of the world.

1) You speak all that I say (28-30)
The Lord, the sovereign king of history, Moses sent to proclaim, announce what he will do for Pharaoh, King of Egypt. So the LORD God is the sovereign of history, but because of his lack of eloquence, Moses apologized for not obeying that order. Often for us there is also the time when because of the fear of the powerful of this world, we do not accept the word of the LORD

2) I will put my hand on Egypt (1-8)
As ruler of history, God sent Moses to Pharaoh to give the sentence of judgment. In same time that the Lord speaks of the judgment to be exercised, he also spoke of that the Pharaoh would not listen. But by believing in the promise that God would put his hand on Pharaoh, Moses departed. At that time, Moses was 80 years old.

3) The wizards (8-13)
The servants of God did miracles through the power of the Lord, and the magicians of Egypt did so with occult practices. The wonders of magicians have limits (12). Who do you think is the ruler of the history?

Prayer: Lord, you are the ruler of history, make sure that the ruler of this world has willing ear to hear the word of God

One word: Oh Pharaoh of this world, hear the word of the LORD
