God uses Pharaoh's stubbornness and heavy heart to perform miraculous signs which Moses and the Israelites can pass down from generation to generation. God is making a mockery of the Egyptians so that the Hebrews will know that the God they serve is a mighty God. Moses lets Pharaoh know that if he will not humble himself, that God will send a plague of locusts so great, no one will be able to see the land. 

Pharaoh's servants plead for Pharaoh to let the people go, that they may serve the LORD their God. Through the seven plagues so far, Egypt is destroyed, yet as God previously told Moses, Pharaoh will not yield until the death of the firstborn Egyptians and Pharaoh's firstborn takes place. The Egyptians believed that Pharaoh and their many gods would protect them, but they are finding out the opposite is true. 

• Why does God harden (make heavy) Pharaoh and his servant's heart?
• Does God have the right to use disobedient people to demonstrate His power?
• Are we commanded to humble ourselves to God?
• Is Pharaoh given chances to follow God?
• Is lack of evidence a reason in our time for people to not believe in God?
