HARDENING OF THE HEART

Exodus 8:11
But when Pharaoh saw there was relief, his heart was hardened; and he did not heed them, as the Lord said.
Personal Challenge
In the Old Testament story of Moses attempting to get Pharoah to free the Israelite slaves and let them go, we see multiple accounts of Pharoah hardening his heart after observing God’s power and deciding not to let the people go. God is not hardening Pharoah’s heart but, in His providence, knows that is what Pharoah is going to do. The message here is that we all need to keep a watch over our heart so that we do not harden it toward God or our neighbor. It is always our choice. We know that you can die from hardening of the arteries but hardening of the heart could have eternal consequences. Lord, have mercy! Lord, have mercy!. Lord, have mercy!
