10 th plague- Death of firstborn
Against none of the children of Israel shall a dog move its tongue: Despite the great calamity to come, God would grant the Egyptians the ability to see the situation as it really was: the fault of their own Pharaoh, not the fault of Moses or the children of Israel.
Egyptians had made Israel cry: and God usually retaliates spoil to spoil (Ezekiel 39:10), number to number (Isaiah 65:11, 12), choice to choice (Isaiah 66:3, 4), cry to cry (James 5:1, 4)
Charles Spurgeon said, “The Lord hath put a difference between those who are his people and those who are not. There are many distinctions among men which will one day be blotted out; but permit me to remind you at the outset that this is an eternal distinction.”
The Eternal Difference”
(Exodus 11:7) – “The Lord makes a distinction between His people and all others.”
- God Himself Makes the Difference
• Not based on wealth, race, or human merit — but on His covenant and grace (Malachi 3:18).
• We become His people through faith in Christ (John 10:27). - God’s People Live Differently
• Called out of darkness into His marvelous light (1 Peter 2:9).
• Our conduct, love, and holiness mark us as belonging to Him (2 Corinthians 6:17). - The Difference Lasts for Eternity
• All earthly distinctions will fade, but saved vs. unsaved remains forever (Matthew 25:46).
• Today is the time to respond to God’s call (Isaiah 55:6).
