How many times have you seen and talked about that word, Passover, but really did not think about what the word means? It means pass over. God passed over those who had blood applied on the doorposts and lintels of their homes in Egypt, in the time of Moses and Aaron and a hard-hearted Pharaoh. […]
The LORD told Moses, one more plague coming. After that, Pharaoh will let My people go, he will drive you out completely. Egypt was devastated by the nine plagues because Pharaoh hardened his heart. All Egypt suffered because of Pharaoh’s hard heart. The Lord showed His sovereignty when He caused all the plagues to […]
After many plagues, eight in fact, Pharaoh did not change his mind, he would not let the sons of Israel, his slaves, go to worship God. Exodus 7:14-10:20 Without a word to Pharaoh, God sent a thick darkness to cover Egypt, except for the land of Goshen, for three days. The slaves had light, no […]
Moses gave another message for Pharaoh from God: “I have hardened his heart and the heart of his servants, that I may perform these signs of Mine among them.” Exodus 10:1 It is God’s work, and prerogative to harden hearts – Pharaoh is an example: he hardened his own heart to what God wanted him […]
Plagues, six of them, did not convince Pharaoh he needed to listen to the warnings and God’s judgments which followed the warnings. Another plague which would help to devastate Egypt was coming. Pharaoh was warned, but his hard heart did not listen. His people suffered! This next plague was one of a severe storm, lightning, […]
Moses saw God’s judgments on Egypt through the Nile River becoming blood, frogs throughout Egypt, gnats and insects swarming. Now came more judgments on the gods of Egypt. Distinction between Egyptians and the slaves of the sons of Israel. Pestilence on the livestock of the Egyptians without harm to the Hebrew slaves’ livestock. Exodus 9:1-6 […]
LIVESTOCK Three plagues done, seven more to follow! This time livestock of the Egyptians would die. Moses and Aaron went again to Pharaoh and asked that God’s people be let go to worship Him. Pharaoh is warned of the next plague in Egypt, except in the land of Goshen where the Hebrew slaves lived. The […]
The LORD God is unrelenting in His judgments. He does not back down when people refuse to believe in Him. The plagues came from the LORD – Moses and Aaron did as the LORD told them. The gods of Egypt were being judged. Pharaoh’s hard heart of unbelief was being judged. GNATS! The first insects […]
The next judgment against Egypt: frogs! Frogs everywhere! In the houses, in the kitchens, in the bedrooms… frogs, frogs, and more frogs. Ugh! The LORD sent Moses and Aaron into Pharaoh’s presence, again. “Let My people go, that they may serve Me.” Of course, Pharaoh refused to let his slaves go. Aaron again stretched […]
Age doesn’t make a heart harden… attitude and unbelief in God hardens hearts. No matter your age, unbelief will set your mind against God. Pharaoh did not believe in the living God. He believed in the many gods of Egypt. Today, choosing unbelief is still rejecting God and hardening hearts. The LORD knew Pharaoh […]
