Exodus - 26 - Exod. 9:1-12 THE HAMMER OF GOD

God is pounding Egypt with His awesome hammer - boom, boom, boom.  Plague after plague.  One thing about the Lord is He shows us that He cares for His chosen ones, Israel.  We see this in the next plague.  But, God tells us that He protects His people, His chosen ones, always.  It is a trait of the Lord God Most High.  He said He was the same then, now, and forever.  He told us in Mal. 3:6 that He doesn’t change.  Consider this ...

Isaiah 41:10  fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

Psalm 121:7-8   The LORD will keep you from all evil; he will keep your life. 8 The LORD will keep your going out and your coming in from this time forth and forevermore.

This is our hope.  This is our desire.  God come and take care of us, your chosen ones. 

But, what is interesting.  This seems to be related to the coming Tribulation.  We study the very words of God and His elect will be going through the Tribulation.  Uh oh.  It seems clear that connecting Revelation and the very words of God, the words of Jesus, shows we are His elect and we will be in the Tribulation (no rapture!!) and as the Hebrews were sheltered by the Lord in Egypt, our hope is that He will shelter us when His HAMMER falls again and again during the Tribulation.  Our hope is in Him since He said He is the same then, now and forever.  The good news is we are grafted in to the olive tree Israel and are joint heirs of the promises of the Lord.  God said He will gather in His elect, His chosen ones, in the end of days.  Not a rapture but and in gathering.  We Gentiles as Jesus’ other flock will join with Israel His first flock, the Jewish Messianic Christians, and become on flock with one Shepherd.

Here are the links I mentioned in this lesson.   The first two and links to articles on the end of days and the “Jewish Rapture” or the ingathering of God’s elect, His chosen.

Also, I mentioned David Padfield’s excellent work on the Exodus.  It is a free booklet from his classroom Bible study.  Here’s the link - https://www.padfield.com/acrobat/history/gods_of_egypt.pdf
