Yôḥanan

I get your point here.. But I think it would be more accurate to say that if it was not for Pharaoh, Moses and Israel would not have needed God. We are part of His plan yes! Thank you for the correction. I should have clarified myself. The word "need" is more closely associated with "Have a requirement for" than "Have or feel a need for". God required an instrument to prove His existence, His power, and His love.

We as Christians, brothers and sisters in Christ, should guard ourselves against the things that transpire around us. Remember, Romans 12:2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. If we believe that all things are the will of God, for it is He who sets the kings upon their thrones; Deuteronomy 17:15 Thou shalt in any wise set him king over thee, whom the Lord thy God shall choose: one from among thy brethren shalt thou set king over thee: thou mayest not set a stranger over thee, which is not thy brother. Then who are we to sit in judgement? Let us not question the will of God. We are but threads in the tapestry, intermingled, woven to create the perfect masterpiece. If it were not for Pharaoh, God would not need Moses. If it were not for king Sol, God would not need David. I thank the Lord our God, for He is in control. I thank the Lord our God, for He chose me and called me out from the darkness from which I wandered. I thank the Lord our God, for He has set a place for me.
