I'll be honest, sometimes, OK, often, God and what he is doing is hard to understand. Looking with our physical eyes, individuals who live apart from God seem to thrive, seem perfectly content with their lives or are spared, even while those serving God suffer great losses. Why is that?
In this verse, God is explaining that he had purposes for sparing Egypt and through this we see his purpose in doing what he so often does today. God desires to show himself strong and to cause people to look to him.
God, in his great love for all of mankind, is drawing attention to himself so that all of earth will know that he is God. The next time you see a person who doesn't know Christ be spared or, even, be blessed, smile and know that God is displaying his power and fame in that person's life to draw him or her to himself.
