When God protects His people from evil, He displays justice. He does what is right for all to see, for His glory.
Isa.63:14 you led your people, to make for yourself a glorious name.
Isa.66:18 all nations… shall come and shall see my glory.
Ezek.39:21 I will set my glory among the nations, and all the nations shall see my judgment that I have executed, and my hand that I have laid on them.
Ezek.37:28 the nations will know that I am the Lord who sanctifies Israel, when my sanctuary is in their midst forevermore.
Psa.23:5 You prepare a table before me [even more God does this] in the presence of my enemies
Psa.41:11 By this I know that you delight in me: my enemy will not shout in triumph over me.
During the 4th plague on Egypt, God sent flies across the nation except around God’s people.
Exo.8:23 God said to Pharaoh, “I will put a division between my people and your people. Tomorrow this sign shall happen.”
Exo.14:4 God said, “I will get glory over Pharaoh and all his host, and the Egyptians shall know that I am the Lord.”
