Heavenly Father, it is most wonderful to realise that through the ten terrible plagues of Egypt which caused such hardship for so many, I can trace Your long-suffering mercy toward fallen man. I can also see Your perfect plan of redemption for those that will listen to Your voice, obey Your instructions, turn from their wicked ways, and believe on You. Thank You that in the past, as well as in this present time, it is not Your will that any should perish. It is Your will that all should come to repentance, turn from their sin, and trust in Christ for the forgiveness of sin. Praise Your holy name! AMEN.
