… One day closer to a miracle. The Bible said in Proverbs 27 in verse 1, boast not yourself of tomorrow for you do not know what a day may bring forth. sometimes the greatest accomplishment for a child of God is just weathering the day getting through the day making it through 24 hours of one of the worst days of your life it's not the years that are the great accomplishments it's not the days that everything is beautiful and miracles are happening it's not even the decades or the lifetime It's the days that we complete. I made it through that day. I won that awful day when that report came, that news came, that situation came. I made it. I won the day. Days that present a great reason to quit and give up.

Now, how may that sudden destruction may come to you? Well, first, it may come to your mind. Not merely to your body, it may come to your mind. …

And so God, in order to touch Pharaoh and allow God's people to go, God began to send plagues into the land of Egypt. And one of the plagues that God sent to the land of Egypt to get Pharaoh to let God's chosen people go that they might go to the promised land, one of the plagues that God sent was the plague of frogs. I don't mean one frog. I don't mean two frogs. I don't mean thousands of frogs. I mean millions of frogs. covered, came up out of the Nile River and covered the land of Egypt. There were frogs everywhere. The den must have been thunderous. As these frogs were croaking all over, you put on your shoe, there would be a frog. A woman would open a kettle to cook and there'd be a frog in the kettle. You would get down between the sheets, there'd be frogs under the sheets.
