Beyond choices
Exodus 15:26 New English Translation
26 He said, “If you will diligently obey the Lord your God, and do what is right in his sight, and pay attention to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, then all the diseases that I brought on the Egyptians I will not bring on you, for I, the Lord, am your healer.”
I hope our nation is not too far gone. To be delivered from its blindness.
The Lord brought down the “super-natural” on the land of Egypt
He did this to deliver His very own from a world of slavery
He shows us clearly the need to be set free from a similar condition
I hope He uses His power to overcome this world’s bravery
Diseases roamed in Egypt and dominated their part of the world
Their priorities caught up with them in what they had achieved
We won’t share their lot if our priorities are placed now on Jesus
Not in the way we talk alone, but in how we live out our true belief
Between sin and death is sickness, a barren desert of our own
We have a choice to travel through or roam there until the end
The trouble is that most of us get used to it and stay in the dessert
Acting to convince ourselves that our deliverance is Heaven-sent
