Today’s Reading: Exodus Chapter 7
Theme: When God Begins to Confront What Has Held His People Captive

Welcome to Day 7 of 40 Days & 40 Nights of Exodus Homework through Living Waters of Redemption Bible Study.

Today we read Exodus Chapter 7, where Moses and Aaron stand before Pharaoh, and God begins to demonstrate His authority over Egypt. Pharaoh’s heart remains hardened, but God is no longer speaking only in private — now His power is being revealed publicly.

Exodus 7 reminds us that deliverance often begins with confrontation. Before Israel walks out of Egypt, Pharaoh must be confronted, false power must be exposed, and Egypt must come to know that the Lord alone is God. This chapter shows us that God is not intimidated by Pharaoh’s resistance, the enemy’s imitation, or the hardness of human hearts.

“And the Egyptians shall know that I am the LORD, when I stretch forth mine hand upon Egypt, and bring out the children of Israel from among them.”
