When I make Egypt desolate and strip the land of everything in it, when I strike down all who live there, then they will know that I am the Lord.’
then if anyone hears the trumpet but does not heed the warning and the sword comes and takes their life, their blood will be on their own head. 5Since they heard the sound of the trumpet but did not heed the warning, their blood will be on their own head. If they had heeded the warning, they would have saved themselves.
“Yet your people say, ‘The way of the Lord is not just.’ But it is their way that is not just. 18If a righteous person turns from their righteousness and does evil, they will die for it. 19And if a wicked person turns away from their wickedness and does what is just and right, they will live by doing so.
Lord God my Father,
You are in control of all things. I pray to know you with such devotion that I may represent you well with grace in my heart. Protect my thoughts and keep me from judgment of others when I have so much to be judged for. Thank you for your grace and patience with me, deliver me from my way and make your path clear for me to see.
In Jesus name I pray,
Amen
