Story Time
The Lord's Will was for His people to go out of Egypt from among the Egyptians, but Pharaoh
refused to let the people leave the country. Then, the Lord sent Moses. The Lord provided Moses with
miraculous deeds. Pharaoh was stubborn and stiff. He persecuted and humiliated God’s people. The
Lord said to Moses, "Tell Pharaoh that the water will become blood and the fish will die." However,
Pharaoh's heart remained hardened and refused to listen to the voice of Moses. Frogs came and covered
the land ofEgypt. Then, Pharaoh called Moses and said, "Pray to the Lord to take away these frogs." Yet
again, he hardened his heart when he saw the frogs taken away. The dust of the land became gnats, then
came flies in such great number, that the whole country and all the houses swarmed with them. Then, a
sickness destroyed all the animals belonging to the Egyptians. Next boils and swelling blisters came upon
men and beasts. After this, a terrible hailstorm struck down herbs and trees, and all that was green in the
fields. The heavy hailstorm was so great that Egypt had never known such in all history.
1. What did the Lord say to Moses?
2. What was the first, second, third, etc. plague?
Then, clouds of locusts came upon the land and devoured all that the hail had left. At last it became
so dark for three days that the Egyptians could not see one another nor move about. These plagues struck
Pharaoh and his people, but the people of God remained out of danger. Pharaoh called for Moses and
asked him to pray for him and promised to let the people go, to worship the Lord. Then, he hardened his
heart and would not let the people go. Finally, the Lord sent a very severe plague. It was the death of the
first born. The people of God were able to leave the country and go out into the wilderness.
