S – Moses said to Pharaoh, “You may have the honor of choosing. When should I appeal on behalf of you, your officials, and your people, that the frogs be taken away from you and your houses, and remain only in the Nile?”
10 “Tomorrow,” he answered.
Exodus 8:9–10 CSB
O – Pharoah and Egypt go through the horrific plague of frogs everywhere. Pharoah has the choice of when Moses will make his appeal to God. Pharoah say “Tomorrow.” Why would he wait until then when the plague, the stench of dead frogs everywhere and the visible wreckage of Pharoah’s sin is everywhere?
A – We do this. We are facing something in our life that is “higher” than God. When we face it, we don’t want to confront it or remove it. We get to the point of decision and we say “tomorrow.” I will spend another night with it.
R – Lord, search me today. I do not want to spend another night with things in my life that don’t please you. Give me the courage to “look in your mirror” and see my thoughts, words and actions like you do. Give me the urgency to remove anything you don’t bless. Thank you for your mercy and grace.
