"And Pharaoh's heart was hardened, neither did he hearken unto them, as the Lord had said" (Exodus 7:22). "A wicked man hardeneth his face: but as for the upright, He directeth his way" (Proverbs 21:29).
The cold heart of Pharaoh was hardened by choice.
There's only two choices to make:
Either we choose to heed the Lord's voice,
Or make our life's biggest mistake.
Pharaoh, like many, was blinded by pride,
And therefore did not take to heart
The mountain of evidence God did not hide
And wisdom the Lord would impart.
Learn from the past, or see it repeated:
The wicked still hardens his face,
In spite of the nations that God has defeated,
That would not respond to His grace!
Our God is not willing that any be lost;
That's why our Lord Jesus came.
But if we won't hearken, there's surely a cost,
And none but ourselves we can blame.
