Wow, what a surprise to find Pharaoh selected to be one of
the 52 Men in the Bible. Here’s a man who tried to live up to his job description
through oppression, wielding entitled power and familial authority, but ended
up on the receiving end of God’s anger because he wasn’t prepared to acknowledge
that he had got it wrong.

| Stop digging! |
It’s vital to know when you are wrong, to admit that you
have made a mistake and to accept that there is another way. Following
directions when driving isn’t really in the same league as leading the
powerhouse nation of Egypt, but even the small things can cause us big problems
and lead us down the wrong road. Failing to admit when we get it wrong often
causes us to ‘dig our heels in’.
As Carl says, ‘If you
are currently digging your heels in…then dig ‘em out!’ It could be
something at work, in your marriage, with your children, at church, or in a club
you belong to. Before it’s too late, check out what your motivation is and see
if meekness or humility is needed before it gets too late to hold your hands up
and apologise.
