Direction or Diversion???



As we read the text for today in the Old Testament EXODUS 8:1-8 we notice that King Pharos had been given instructions from God, he decided not to follow. Then the frogs took to the land. The sad truth about this issue is that the people as a whole who suffered had little to do with or rather nothing to do with the decision that was made by the King. “He” decided to disobey God.

As we reflect on the state of our nation I would say that we face a similar situation. Our gas prices, our job market, our recession, all of these things have little to do with the direct decision that we have made. But rather more to do with the people we have entrusted to govern and lead us. But just as it was, so it is still today, we suffer for their failures or bad decisions.

But my question to you today is; "What is your outlook on all of this?"

• Do you see this as a divine opportunity that fuels you towards God's “Direction”?
• Or do you see this as a “Diversion”, taking your focus away from trusting God?

So is this Direction or Diversion?
