TOPIC: ONF, MORE PLAGUE
TEXT: Exodus 11
1 And the LORD said unto Moses, Yet will I bring one plague more upon Pharaoh, and upon Egypt; afterwards he will let you go hence: when he shall let you go, he shall surely thrust you out hence altogether.2 Speak now in the ears of the people, and let every man borrow of his neighbour, and every woman of her neighbour, jewels of silver, and jewels of gold.3 And the LORD gave the people favour 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 And Moses said, Thus saith the LORD, About midnight will I go out into the midst of Egypt: 5 And all the firstborn in the land of Egypt shall die, from the firstborn of Pharaoh that sitteth upon his throne, even unto the firstborn of the maidservant that is behind the mill; and all the firstborn of beasts.6 And there shall be a great cry throughout all the land of Egypt, such as there was none like it, nor shall be like it any more.
7 But against any of the children of Israel shall not a dog move his tongue, against man or beast: that ye may know how that the LORD doth put a difference between the Egyptians and Israel.8 And all these thy servants shall come down unto me, and bow down themselves unto me, saying, Get thee out, and all the people that follow thee: and after that I will go out. And he went out from Pharaoh in a great anger.9 And the LORD said unto Moses, Pharaoh shall not hearken unto you; that my wonders may be multiplied in the land of Egypt.10 And Moses and Aaron did all these wonders before Pharaoh: and the LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart, so that he would not let the children of Israel go out of his land.

INTRODUCTION TEXT
an u result of Pharaoh's stubbornness, God decided to bring one more plague on him and Egypt. This would be the knock-out plague that would make Pharaoh to release, the Israelites. The Israelites were advised to borrow gold and silver articles from their Egyptian neighbours, which when they did was a success because of God's favour. This last plague as announced by Moses would destroy all the firstborn of men and animals in Egypt including Pharaoh's firstborn. There would be a great cry in Egypt that they would allow the Israelites to go. However, the plague would not touch the firstborn of the Israelites.
Proverbs 29:1 says that the person who is often rebuked but hardens his neck suffers sudden destruction. Pharaoh suffered such a fate when he lost the heir to his throne to the plague. People who do not want to obey God experience such things. One more plague made the difference hoi wren life in slavery and freedom for the Israelites. That last divine plague opened the door to their financial miracle and national freedom. Are you in any form of spiritual, physical or financial bondage? Call on God and expect His one more plague that will deal with your detractors and challenges to set you free.
Prayer: Deliver me, O God, from every satanic bondage and set me free in Jesus name. Amen.
