SPARED FOR A PURPOSE

” But I have spared you for a purpose- to show you my power and spread my fame throughout the earth.” Exodus 9:16

Have you ever wondered why God didn’t just take Moses, Aaron and the Israelites out of Egypt without all of the miracles that were performed? He could have just lifted them up and put them where he wanted them. However, he had a purpose. He wanted Pharaoh and all of the Egyptians to see his power and wanted his name to be known and proclaimed. Things are no different in today’s world. God is still the same. He has not changed and will not change. He is still working hard to show all that he is the purpose for each of us. He is why we were created, and he is why we exist. We each have a purpose just as Moses had a purpose. We each have been created for this time in history and we are to show others that our God in heaven is our sole creator and that our sole purpose for living is to please him. We are to yell his name to the heavens by praising him and believing in him. We are to be examples in the way we live and talk. We are not to be doubters and live lives for self-righteousness. Just as God was showing through Moses, that the people of Israel belonged to God and not to Pharaoh, he is showing today that his children belong to him and not to the world. We need God’s mercy each and everyday. We are to never forget that we have been spared for a purpose. We still have work to do. For as long as God gives us a breath to take, we are to continue to fulfill our assignment and continue to praise and love our God in heaven. PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL THINGS!
