In Exodus 8–10, we walk through six of the plagues and see they aren’t just judgment—they’re God exposing the false securities Egypt trusted in. Pharaoh keeps trying to negotiate, and if we’re honest, we do the same as we cling to a few “small” things for the illusion of control. Even the darkness of the ninth plague hints at the greater darkness Christ would bear in our place. Today’s message invites us to stop bargaining and surrender to the One who alone is worthy.
