Exodus 10 - 12



EXODUS 10



The Eighth Plague: Locusts



1 (Ex 4:21) Then the Lord said to Moses, "Go to Pharaoh, for I have hardened

his heart and the heart of his servants, that I might show

these signs of Mine before him,

2 (Ex 13:14; Dt 4:9) in order that you may tell in the hearing of your son,

and of your son’s son, what things I have done in Egypt,

and My signs which I have done among them,

that you may know that I am the Lord."

3 (1Ki 21:29; Jas 4:10) Moses and Aaron came to Pharaoh and said to him,

"Thus says the Lord, the God of the Hebrews, 'How long will you refuse to

humble yourself before Me? Let My people go, that they may serve Me.

4 (Rev 9:3; Pr 30:27) For if you refuse to let My people go, indeed,

tomorrow I will bring locusts into your territory.

5 (Ex 9:32; Joel 1:4) And they shall cover the face of the earth,

such that no one will be able to see the earth.

What's more, they shall eat the remainder of that which has escaped

- that which remains to you from the hail - and shall eat every tree

which grows for you out of the field.

6 (Ex 8:3; 8:21) And they shall fill your houses, and the houses

of all your servants, and the houses of all the Egyptians - which neither

your fathers, nor your fathers' fathers have seen since the day that they

were on the earth until this day.' " And he turned and went out from

Pharaoh.

7 (Ex 23:33; Jos 23:13) Then Pharaoh's servants said to him,

"How long shall this man be a snare to us? Let the men go,

so that they may serve the Lord their God. Do you not yet know

that Egypt is destroyed?"

8 (Ex 10:24) So Moses and Aaron were brought back to Pharaoh, and he said

to them, "Go, serve the Lord your God! But who are the ones that shall go?"

9 (Ex 3:18; 5:1) And Moses said, "We will go with our young and our old,

with our sons and our daughters, with our flocks and our herds will we go,

for we must hold a feast to the Lord."

10 Then he said to them, “The Lord indeed be with you when I let you

and your little ones go. Beware, for evil is before you.

11 (Ex 10:28) Not so! Go now, you that are men, and serve the Lord,

for that is what you desire." Then they were driven out from Pharaoh's

presence.

12 (Ex 7:19; 10:4–5) Then the Lord said to Moses, "Stretch out your hand

over the land of Egypt for the locusts, so that they may come up upon

the land of Egypt and eat every herb of the land, even all that the hail has left."

13 So Moses stretched forth his rod over the land of Egypt; then the Lord brought

an east wind upon the land all that day and all that night. And when it was morning,

the east wind brought the locusts.

14 (Ps 78:46) The locusts went up over all the land of Egypt

and settled down in all the territory of Egypt. They were very grievous.

Never before had there been such locusts as they,

nor would there be such ever again.

15 (Ex 10:5) For they covered the face of the whole earth, so that the land

was darkened, and they ate every herb of the land, and all the fruit

of the trees which the hail had left. As a result, nothing green remained

there in the trees or herbs of the field, through all the land of Egypt.

16 (Ex 9:27) Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron in haste and said,

"I have sinned against the Lord, your God, and against you.

17 (Ex 8:8; 9:28) Now therefore please forgive my sin only this once,

and entreat the Lord your God, so that He may take away from me

this death only."

18 So he went out from Pharaoh and prayed to the Lord.

19 (Joel 2:20) Then the Lord turned a mighty strong west wind,

which took away the locusts and threw them into the Red Sea.

Not one locust remained in all the territory of Egypt.

20 (Ex 4:21; 11:10) But the Lord hardened Pharaoh's heart,

so that he would not let the children of Israel go.



The Ninth Plague: Darkness



21 (Ex 9:22; Ps 105:28) Then the Lord said to Moses,

"Stretch out your hand toward the heavens, so that

there may be darkness over the land of Egypt,

a darkness which may be felt."

22 (Ps 105:28; Rev 16:10) So Moses stretched forth his hand

toward the heavens, and there was a thick darkness

in all the land of Egypt for three days.

23 (Ex 8:22; 9:4) They did not see one another; nor did anyone rise

from his place for three days. But all the children of Israel

had light in their dwellings.

24 (Ex 10:8–10) Then Pharaoh called to Moses and said,

"Go, serve the Lord. Only let your flocks and your herds be detained.

Even let your little ones also go with you."

25 But Moses said, "You must also give us sacrifices and burnt offerings,

so that we may sacrifice to the Lord our God.

26 Our livestock will go with us also. Not a hoof will be left behind,

for we must take of them to serve the Lord our God.

And we do not know with what we must serve the Lord, until we get there."

27 (Ex 10:20; 4:21) But the Lord hardened Pharaoh's heart,

and he would not let them go.

28So Pharaoh said to him, "Get away from me! Watch yourself,

do not see my face anymore; for in the day you see my face you shall die."

29 (Heb 11:27) Then Moses said,"As you wish. I will never see your face again."



EXODUS 11



Warning of the Final Plague



1 Now the Lord said to Moses, "I will still bring one plague more

upon Pharaoh, and upon Egypt. Afterwards he will let you go

from here. When he lets you go, he shall surely

thrust you out from here altogether.

2 (Ex 3:22; 12:35–36) Speak now in the hearing of the people,

and let every man borrow of his neighbor and every woman of her neighbor,

articles of silver and articles of gold."

3 (Ex 3:21; 12:36) Then the Lord gave the people favor in the sight

of the Egyptians. Moreover, the man Moses was very great

in the land of Egypt, in the sight of Pharaoh's servants,

and in the sight of the people.

4 (Ex 12:29; Job 34:20) Moses said, "Thus says the Lord, 'About midnight

I will go out into the midst of Egypt,

5 (Ps 78:51; Ex 4:23) and all the firstborn in the land of Egypt shall die,

from the firstborn of Pharaoh who sits on his throne,

even to the firstborn of the maidservant that is behind the mill,

as well as all the firstborn of beasts.

6 (Ex 12:30; Am 5:17) Then there shall be a great cry throughout

all the land of Egypt, such as there has never been,

nor shall ever be again.

7 (Ex 8:22; Jos 10:21) But against any of the children of Israel a dog

will not even move his tongue, against man or beast, in order that

you may know how that the Lord distinguishes between Egypt and Israel.'

8 (Ex 12:31–33) Then all these your servants shall come down

to me and bow themselves to me, saying,

'Get out, and all the people who follow you!' After that I will go out."

And he went out from Pharaoh in great anger.

9 (Ex 7:3–4; 3:19) Then the Lord said to Moses, "Pharaoh shall not listen

to you so that My wonders may be multiplied in the land of Egypt."

10 (Ex 4:21; 10:20) So Moses and Aaron did all these wonders before

Pharaoh, and the Lord hardened Pharaoh’s heart, and he would not let

the children of Israel go out of his land.



EXODUS 12



The Passover Instituted



Lev 23:4–8; Nu 28:16–25; Dt 16:1–8



1 Now the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt, saying:

2 (Dt 16:1; Ex 13:4; 23:15) This month shall be the beginning of months

to you. It shall be the first month of the year to you.

3 Speak to all the congregation of Israel, saying:

On the tenth day of this month every man shall take a lamb,

according to the house of their fathers, a lamb for a household.

4 And if the household be too little for the lamb, let him

and his neighbor next to his house take it according to

the number of the persons; according to what each man shall eat,

divide the lamb.

5 (Lev 23:12; Dt 17:1) Your lamb shall be without blemish, a male

of the first year. You shall take it out from the sheep, or from the goats.

6 (Lev 23:5; Ex 16:12; Nu 28:16) You shall keep it up until the fourteenth

day of the same month, and then the whole assembly of the congregation

of Israel shall kill it in the evening.

7 They shall take some of the blood and put it on the two side posts

and on the upper doorpost of the houses in which they shall eat it.

8 (Ex 34:25; Dt 16:7) They shall eat the flesh on that night,

roasted with fire, and they shall eat it with unleavened bread

and bitter herbs.

9 (Ex 12:8; Dt 16:7) Do not eat it raw, nor boiled at all with water,

but roasted with fire, its head with its legs and its entrails.

10 (Ex 23:18; 34:25; 29:34) And you shall let nothing of it remain

until the morning, but that of it which remains until the morning

you shall burn with fire.

11 (Ex 12:27; Eph 6:15) In this way shall you eat it: with your waist

girded, your sandals on your feet, and your staff in your hand.

So you shall eat it in haste. It is the Lord's Passover.

12 (Ex 6:2; Nu 33:4) For I will pass through the land of Egypt this night

and will smite all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast,

and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgment. I am the Lord.

13 (Heb 11:28) The blood shall be to you for a sign on the houses where

you are. And when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and the plague

shall not be upon you to destroy you when I smite the land of Egypt.

14 (Ex 12:17; 12:24) This day shall be a memorial to you, and you shall

keep it as a feast to the Lord. Throughout your generations you shall

keep it a feast by an eternal ordinance.

15 (Dt 16:3; Ge 17:14; Ex 23:15) Seven days you shall eat unleavened bread.

On the first day you shall put away leaven out of your houses, for whoever

eats leavened bread from the first day until the seventh day, that person

shall be cut off from Israel.

16 (Lev 23:7–8; Nu 28:18) On the first day there shall be a holy convocation,

and on the seventh day there shall be a holy convocation for you.

No manner of work shall be done on them; but that which every man

must eat—that only may be prepared for you.

17 (Ex 13:3) You shall observe the Feast of Unleavened Bread.

For on this very day I brought your armies out of the land of Egypt.

Therefore you shall observe this day throughout your generations

as an ordinance forever.

18 (Ex 12:15; Lev 23:5–8) In the first month, on the fourteenth day

of the month at evening, you shall eat unleavened bread until

the twenty-first day of the month at evening.

19 (Ex 12:15; 12:48) Seven days shall there be no leaven found

in your houses, for whoever eats that which is leavened, that

person shall be cut off from the congregation of Israel,

whether he be a stranger or born in the land.

20 You shall eat nothing leavened.

In all your dwellings you shall eat unleavened bread.

21 (Ex 12:3; Mk 14:12–16) Then Moses called for all the elders of Israel

and said to them, "Draw out and take for yourselves a lamb according

to your families and kill the Passover lamb.

22 (Heb 11:28; Ex 12:7) You shall take a bunch of hyssop, and dip it

in the blood that is in the basin, and apply the lintel and the two side

posts with the blood that is in the basin, and none of you shall go out

from the door of his house until the morning.

23 (Heb 11:28; Rev 7:3) For the Lord will pass through to kill the Egyptians.

And when He sees the blood upon the lintel and on the two side posts,

the Lord will pass over the door and will not permit the destroyer to come

to your houses to kill you.

24 (Ex 12:14) "And you shall observe this thing as an ordinance

to you and to your sons forever.

25 (Ex 3:8; 3:17) When you enter the land which the Lord will give you,

according as He has promised, that you shall observe this service.

26 (Ex 13:14–15; Dt 32:7) And when your children shall say to you,

'What does this service mean to you?'

27 (Ex 4:31; 12:11) that you shall say, 'It is the sacrifice

of the Lord's Passover, who passed over the houses of the children

of Israel in Egypt, when He smote the Egyptians,

and delivered our households.' "

And the people bowed down and worshipped.

28 Then the children of Israel went and did so.

Just as the Lord had commanded Moses and Aaron, so they did.



The Tenth Plague: Death of the Firstborn



29 (Ex 4:23; Ps 78:51) At midnight the Lord smote all the firstborn

in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh that sat on his throne

to the firstborn of the captive who was in the dungeon

and all the firstborn of livestock.

30 (Ex 11:6; Am 5:17) Pharaoh rose up in the night,

he and all his servants and all the Egyptians,

and there was a great cry in Egypt,

for there was not a house where there was not someone dead.



The Exodus



31 (Ex 10:9) Then he called for Moses and Aaron at night and said,

"Rise up, and get out from among my people,

both you and the children of Israel, and go,

serve the Lord, as you have said.

32 (Ex 10:26) Also take your flocks and your herds, as you have said,

and be gone, and bless me also."

33 (Ps 105:38; Ex 11:1) The Egyptians urged the people, so that

they might send them out of the land in haste, for they said,

"We all will be dead."

34 So the people took their dough before it was leavened,

with their kneading troughs being bound up

in their clothes on their shoulders.

35 (Ex 3:21–22; 11:2–3) Now the children of Israel did according

to the word of Moses, and they requested of the Egyptians

articles of silver and articles of gold, and clothing.

36 (Ge 15:14; Ex 3:21–22) And the Lord gave the people favor

in the sight of the Egyptians, so that they gave them

what they requested. Thus they plundered the Egyptians.

37 (Ex 38:26; Nu 1:46) Then the children of Israel journeyed

from Rameses to Sukkoth, about six hundred thousand men on foot,

besides children.

38 (Nu 11:4) A mixed multitude also went up with them along

with flocks and herds, a large amount of livestock.

39 (Ex 6:1; 11:1) They baked unleavened cakes of the dough

which they brought forth out of Egypt, for it was not leavened

because they were driven out of Egypt and could not linger,

nor had they prepared for themselves any food.

40 (Ge 15:13; Ac 7:6) Now the sojourning of the children of Israel

who lived in Egypt was four hundred and thirty years.

41 And at the end of the four hundred and thirty years, on the very day,

all the hosts of the Lord went out from the land of Egypt.

42 (Dt 16:1–6) It is a night to be observed to the Lord for bringing

them out from the land of Egypt. This is that night for the Lord

to be observed by all the children of Israel in their generations.



(The four hundred year promise to Abraham)



The Ordinance of Passover



43 (Ex 12:48; Nu 9:14) So the Lord said to Moses and Aaron:

This is the ordinance of the Passover:

No foreigner may eat of it.

44 (Ge 17:12–13) But every man's servant bought with money,

when you have circumcised him, may eat it.

45 (Lev 22:10) A foreigner or a hired servant shall not eat it.

46 (Nu 9:12; Jn 19:36; 19:33) In one house shall it be eaten.

You shall not carry any of the flesh outside of the house,

nor shall you break a bone of it.

47 (Ex 12:6; Nu 9:13) All the congregation of Israel shall keep it.

48 (Nu 9:14; Ex 12:43) Now when a stranger sojourns with you

and keeps the Passover to the Lord, let all his males be circumcised,

and then let him come near and keep it.

And he shall be as one that is born in the land.

However, no uncircumcised person shall eat of it.

49 (Nu 15:15–16; 15:29) The same law shall apply to him that is a native

and to the stranger who sojourns among you.

50 So all the children of Israel did it.

They did just as the Lord commanded Moses and Aaron.

51 (Ex 12:41) And that same day the Lord brought

the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt by their hosts.





2) Our Daily Bread for 2 Feb 2021

entitled Pruned to Thrive



John 15:1–12



JOHN 15

Jesus the True Vine

1 (Isa 5:1–7; 1Co 3:9) " am the true vine, and My Father is the vinedresser.

2 (Mt 3:10; 13:1) 2Every branch in Me that bears no fruit, He takes away.

And every branch that bears fruit, He prunes, that it may bear more fruit.

3 (Jn 13:10; 17:17) You are already clean through

the word which I have spoken to you.

4 (1Jn 2:6; Jn 6:56; Gal 2:20) Remain in Me, as I also remain in you.

As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it remains in the vine,

neither can you, unless you remain in Me.

5 (Php 4:13; Jn 15:16) "I am the vine, you are the branches. He who remains

in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit. For without Me you can do nothing.

6 (Mt 13:41; Jn 15:2) If a man does not remain in Me,

he is thrown out as a branch and withers.

And they gather them and throw them into the fire,

and they are burned.

7 (Jn 14:13; 15:16) If you remain in Me, and My words remain in you,

you will ask whatever you desire, and it shall be done for you.

8 (Mt 5:16; Jn 8:31) My Father is glorified by this, that you bear much fruit;

so you will be My disciples.

9 (Jn 17:26) "As the Father loved Me, I also loved you. Remain in My love.

10 (Jn 14:15; 8:29; 17:4) If you keep My commandments,

you will remain in My love, even as I have kept My Father's

commandments and remain in His love.

11 (Jn 17:13; 16:24) I have spoken these things to you,

that My joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be full.

12 (Jn 13:34; 1Jn 3:23) This is My commandment:

that you love one another, as I have loved you.



As I watched a bumblebee land lightly on the Russian sage,

I marveled at the bush's lush branches exploding with color.

Its brilliant blue blossoms attracted eyes and bees alike.

Yet only last fall, I'd wondered if it would ever blossom again.

When my wife's parents trimmed the periwinkle plant down to a stub,

I’d assumed they’d decided to get rid of it. But now I was witnessing

the radiant result of pruning that had seemed brutal to me.



The surprising beauty that results from harsh cuts may be one of the reasons

Jesus chose pruning imagery to describe God's work among believers.

In John 15, He says, "I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener. . . .

Every branch that does bear fruit he prunes so that

it will be even more fruitful" (vv. 1–2).



Jesus' words remind us that in the good times and bad,

God is always working in us toward spiritual renewal and fruitfulness (v. 5).

During “pruning” seasons of suffering or emotional barrenness,

we may wonder if we’ll ever thrive again.

But Christ encourages us to continue to stick close to Him:

"No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine.

Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me" (v. 4).



As we continually draw spiritual nourishment from Jesus,

the resulting beauty and fruitfulness in our lives (v.

will show the world God’s goodness.



By: Adam R. Holz





Reflect & Pray



How have you seen God use struggle in your life to produce growth

and fruitfulness? How do you think time gives us the perspective

to see God's hand at work in our lives?



Father, help me to trust You during difficult seasons in my life,

knowing that You’re at work to bring beauty and change.

Week 8 Guided by Grace Day 3 - The Promise of Completion



Philippians 1:6



6 (1Co 1:8; Jn 6:29) I am confident of this very thing,

that He who began a good work in you will perfect it

until the day of Jesus Christ.



"Elizabeth is a good student", the note on the side of the report card read,

"but she doesn't finish what she starts. She has a lot of good ideas, but

rarely brings then to completion."

Many of us are like Elizabeth. We start into a new venture with high hopes

and great motivation. Bit somewhere along the way, we become discouraged.

Someone tells us that our ideas are stpuide, or that we are not capable of

doing what we dream. We get a particulatly difficule hurdle and give up.

Sometimes we fell the Christian like is like that, too. We start well, and

believe that in Christ we can accomplish anything. But then our prayers

become rote, our Bible reading ritual. We can't seem to regain that sense

of God's presence; we have, we conclude, "Lost our first love."

But God has a different perspective. He began the work of salvation in us;

he leads and guides us in his will, and he will complete what he has begun.

Oftne we fail to see God's grace in hte ongoing proces of walking with him

because his agenda is different from ours. We know what we want to see

happen in our lives; God knows what needs to happen.

"When I fist came into a relationship with Christ," one woman explained,

"I knew I had a lot of changing to do. But, strangely enough, the things God

changed weren't on my list at all!"

When God begins his work in oue lives, he has a plan for our maturity.

He is the Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End. And what God

has begun, he will finish.



Application



a) Have I ever tried to "decide" for God what problems in my life

needed dealing with?



b) Has God ever pointed out issues that were a surprise to me?



c) How can today's verse help me relax in God's will and

have confidence in the direction of my life?





4) From Prosperity Promises - Kenneth Copeland



1 Tim 6:17-19

who richly gives us all things to enjoy.

18 (Ro 12:8; 12:13) Command that they do good, that they be rich

6) This come from Praying for Muslims in Canada 2015 (Is there a 2021 edition?)





Alberta



Quick facts on Muslims in Alberta



Alberta 2015 population 4121700



est Muslim Population 195240



CNMM Networks: Calgary and Edmonton



It is estimated that Calgary has 82000 Muslims and Edmonton another 50000 .

Alberta maoy have a total as hihg as 195240 today.

Calgary is notable as the first Canadian city with a Muslim mayor. It's

become a prominent place of Islamic fundamentalism.

Edmonton's Muslim population is very diverse, with the legrest group

coming from Tanzania, followed by Somalia, and then North African countries

such as Egypt, Morocco, etc.

Muslims are coming to faith in JEsus! They overcome huge spiritual,

emotional and cultural hurdles to follow Christ. Yet their challenges still

continue, especially in growing in discpleship. They often fell lost in our

Western congreations, and euqally lost trying to find a church body with whom

they can identify. some are even being lured into Christian cult groups.



Please join us in praying for:

- The church to reach out to the growing Muslim populations in Alberta.

- for Canadian churches to start contextualised discipleship ministries to

Muslim-background believers.

- for Muslm-background believers to be well grounded spiritually and socially

in their faith and the Church.

- and for Muslim-background believers to share their faith with their

not-yet-believing family and friendship networks.

- for Farsi and Arabic fellowships to grow in spiritual maturity and outreach.

- for current and new workers among Muslims in these growing Muslim

in these growing Muslim population centres.

30 days of prayer for the Muslim World 24 April to 23 May 2020







Under the Keep Praying page







When the new moon is sighted it marks the beginning of t he new Islamic month



and Eid al-Fitr, the "Festival of Breaking the Fast", will start! After 30 days



of fasting, the Eid celebration at the end of Ramadan is a joyful time that



usually lasts about 3 days. Muslims will buy new clothes, exchange gifts and,



of course, enjoy special foods. In Muslim-majority nations, the streets may be



decorated and festivals will be held.







For many Muslims, Eid-al-Fitr begins with communal prayers at daybreak and the



distribution of money (zakat) to the poor, which is one of the 5 pillars of



Islam.







You can greet Muslim friends during this time by saying "Eid Mubarak",



which means Blessed Eid!"







Ramadan is over for this year, but you can continue to pray for Muslims you



know, and Muslims around the world:







- Despite the unsettling developments in our world today that involve actions



in the name of Islam, there is at the same time a largely untold story about



unprecedented movement to Christ among Muslims. There have been more such



movements of thousands or more new disciples among Muslims in the last three



decades or so than in all the previous history of Christian Muslim



relationships! Pray for this momentum to continue.



Acts 2:12-17 : 17 "In the last days it shall be," says God,



"that I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh;



your sons and your daughters shall prophesy,



your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams.



18 Even on My menservants and maidservants



I will pour out My Spirit in those days; and they shall prophesy.



19 And I will show wonders in heaven above and signs on the earth below:



blood, and fire, and vapor of smoke. 20 The sun shall be turned into darkness,



and the moon into blood, before that great and glorious day of the Lord comes.



21 And whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved."[a]







Footnotes



Acts 2:21 Joel 2:28-32.



- Pray for Christian workers an organisations focused on seeing effective



discipleship movements among Muslim people.



- Ask the Holy Spirit to continue to inspire you to have god's heart for



Muslims, to see them as He does, and to be the light that then to Jesus.



Matthew 5:14-15 : 14 "You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a



hill cannot be hidden. 15 Neither do men light a candle and put it under



a basket, but on a candlestick. And it gives light to all who are in the



house."







Ideas for prayer







- Pray for opportunities to show the love of Christ to Muslims around you



- Pray for, and offer generous hospitality to, those you know who are serving



Christ among Muslim people -



Romans 12:13 "contribute to the needs of the saints, practice hospitality."



- When you gather with fellow believers, remember to pray for Muslims



throughout the year and encourage them to also participate in 30 Days!







My paternal side is of Muslim heritage and will offer this section to further



call for Muslim converts to Christian and any other converts to Christianity



(Hindus, Jews, aboriginals Canadian, ...) .
