The Finger of God

"the Finger of God"...

that's what I heard.

I asked someone if that meant anything to them, but it didn't.

I looked it up when I got home.

"But if I cast out demons by the finger of God, then the kingdom of God has come upon you.  Luke 11:20 NASB

So, if the "finger of God" is present when the kingdom of God is present...

Then there's this verse-

Then the magicians said to Pharaoh, "This is the finger of God." But Pharaoh's heart was hardened, and he did not listen to them, as the LORD had said.  Exodus 8:19 NASB


This ties in with what God was showing me about the staff

In Exodus chapter 8, God is using Moses and Aaron to show miracles to Pharaoh to convince him to let the Israelites go. When Aaron smacks his staff on the ground, the dust turns into gnats (possibly mosquitoes). Pharaoh's magicians could NOT duplicate this. They testified that "this is the finger of God".

There is a time coming, coming soon.

God wants to set His people free.

There will be great signs, wonder, and miracles.

When we see these miracles, we need to understand that they are by the finger of God...

that means the kingdom of God has come to us!

Study while there is time...

there will be a test...
