The Egyptians worshiped odd and debased gods.  Each plague was designed to strike

 at the credibility of an Egyptian god and manifest the barrenness of belief in these

 objects. God does the same today. Our gods are fortune, power, beauty, talent, and

 intelligence. There is nothing wrong with these as servants, but when we worship

 them they are cruel. God shows the barrenness of worshiping them by allowing

 people without them to be deeply joyful while those who worship them are tortured.

 God's personal mark of blessing is the fruit of the Spirit (Gal. 5:22-23) and not necessarily

 the fruit of the vine. Joy is found in God not in things.

Prayer - Offer the Lord praise for the joy He gives:

"Bless the Lord, O my soul! O Lord my God, You are very great:

You are clothed with honor and majesty, Who cover Yourself

with light as with a garment, Who stretch out the heavens like a curtain," Ps.104:1-2

As you agree with God's will voice your affirmation of His Word:

"Lord, You are the portion of my inheritance and my cup;

You maintain my lot. The lines have fallen to me in pleasant places;

Yes, I have a good inheritance," Ps. 16:5-6

"Great is our Lord, and mighty in power; His understanding

is infinite. The Lord lifts up the humble; He casts the wicked

down to the ground," Ps. 147:5-6
