The earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it. The world and all its people belong to him. – Psalm 24:1

 

In quick succession, the gods of Egypt were challenged and defeated. Starting with the Nile (the Egyptians’ primary deity), then following with the sun and the cattle, all Egypt’s false gods were symbolically destroyed. The point of these ten plagues was to reveal that the “earth belongs to the Lord” (Exodus 9:29). God will share His glory with neither empires nor individuals. The hardening of Pharaoh’s heart caused him to provide a setting by which God could gain a name for Himself.

David also came to the realization that “the earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it” (Psalm 24:1). He continued the thought, saying, “Who is the King of glory? The Lord, strong and mighty, the Lord, invincible in battle” (v. 8).

The earth is a battleground where God displays His victory over Satan. Satan may be “the god of this evil world” (2 Corinthians 4:4), but the earth belongs to God. So claim nations as your inheritance, and challenge every god that lays claim to what God has created!
