• 0:01
  Exodus Chapter 11 let us pray our Father who is in heaven, how
• 0:12
  we love you. Lord, we love you with every
• 0:17
  fiber of our being. Lord, we pulsate towards the
• 0:23
  light. God, we are asking for a
• 0:26
  covering today. Cover us with your holiness,
• 0:31
  God. Exchange all of our sinfulness
• 0:33
  for your righteousness. God.
• 0:37
  Lord, we are helplessly, hopelessly lost without you.
• 0:44
  Lord, we desire a touch from you today.
• 0:49
  Touch our hearts, touch our minds, and touch our bodies.
• 0:52
  Heal us, God, Make us whole. Rescue us from ourselves.
• 0:58
  Rescue us from all of the depravity.
• 1:01
  God, of the culture all around us.
• 1:03
  God, we are unclean people with unclean lips.
• 1:07
  We come from an unclean people group.
• 1:09
  God, we're desperately in need of Yeshua.
• 1:14
  We desperately need discovering. We desperately need you to touch
• 1:20
  us, God, and to make us whole and make us holy and purify us,
• 1:25
  God, sanctify us, God, give us strength to consecrate this
• 1:29
  temple. We drive out, we kick out, Lord,
• 1:32
  we completely upend and demolish our strongholds of rebellion and
• 1:38
  opposition. Father, I pray God that we can
• 1:42
  pulverize all the idols that we have made, Lord, in our lives.
• 1:48
  God, grind them to dust. Lord, I pray in the mighty name
• 1:53
  of Jesus that it'll be the cross high and lifted up over our
• 1:58
  houses, the cross of Christ high and lifted up over our bodies
• 2:02
  and our minds, over our finances, over this globe.
• 2:06
  God, we desperately need you in this hour.
• 2:12
  Do it again, Lord, like you did in the days of John Wesley.
• 2:17
  Do it again, God. Like you did in the days of
• 2:20
  Billy Graham. Do it again, God.
• 2:23
  Like you did in the days of DL Moody.
• 2:26
  Do it again, God. Like you did in the days of
• 2:30
  Calvin. Do it again, God, like you did
• 2:33
  in the days of Luther. Father, I pray that you'll flip
• 2:38
  over the tables of all the merchandisers.
• 2:41
  God, get rid of all false prophets and false teachers.
• 2:46
  God, all those that are watering down the gospel.
• 2:50
  God, we want the pure Word of God, We want your unadulterated,
• 2:56
  unfiltered. God, we want the fullness of the
• 3:00
  Word. God, we eat and dine.
• 3:05
  We feast upon you. Thank you God for the living
• 3:11
  water. Thank you, God for fresh bread.
• 3:14
  Thank you God for manna and quail.
• 3:16
  Thank you, God for honey. Thank you, Lord, from water,
• 3:20
  from the rock. God.
• 3:22
  We drink and we are satisfied. We are never thirsty again.
• 3:27
  When we come to you, we have tasted and we have seen that you
• 3:30
  are good. And God, we desire more.
• 3:34
  Take us to new heights, God. Allow us to feel the depths.
• 3:38
  Father of your love for humanity, God, help us to love
• 3:43
  our neighbor as ourselves. Help us to love you with every
• 3:46
  single fiber, every single molecule, God, every single
• 3:52
  cell, Lord, reverberating towards you.
• 3:55
  We just want you, Father, teach us your eternal paths.
• 3:59
  Help us to understand the text. Holy Spirit, you teach, I
• 4:04
  decrease as you increase. It's all about you, Jesus Christ
• 4:09
  high and lifted up. We invite you in and it's in
• 4:12
  your holy and precious and powerful and awesome and amazing
• 4:17
  name that I pray. Amen.
• 4:24
  Well, let's start in verse one. And the Lord said unto Moses,
• 4:30
  Yet I will bring one more plague upon Pharaoh and upon Egypt, and
• 4:36
  afterwards he will let you go from here.
• 4:40
  When he shall let you go, He shall surely thrust you out from
• 4:45
  here all together. So here Moses is being comforted
• 4:52
  by God saying that this is the end, this is how it all ends,
• 4:57
  right here and right now. This is the culmination of all
• 5:01
  the plagues. This is the culmination of the
• 5:04
  judgment. This is the culmination of God's
• 5:07
  war against the Egyptian lowercase G gods, the idols that
• 5:12
  they have built up and are worshipping.
• 5:14
  God sees it all and He is going to deal with it right now, right
• 5:19
  here, once and for all. We see this crescendo of all the
• 5:25
  plagues that have happened and think about this moment, friend.
• 5:31
  Don't miss it. Egypt at this moment is
• 5:37
  completely in desolation. It is as if it was war-torn.
• 5:42
  Think of the trees and the vegetation knocked down, burned
• 5:48
  up from the fire and the hail. Think of all of the plagues that
• 5:56
  have come and have gotten the Egyptians attention from the
• 6:00
  frogs and the flies and the lice and the water being turned to
• 6:04
  blood. Think about whenever all of
• 6:08
  Pharaoh's magicians told Pharaoh that this was the finger of God
• 6:17
  and they could not match miracle for miracle when it comes to
• 6:23
  trying to disprove and discredit God's authority.
• 6:28
  And here, if you remember, the magicians have gone to Pharaoh
• 6:34
  and said, how long will you let this go?
• 6:36
  As you can see that Egypt is ruined, friends.
• 6:40
  But Pharaoh's heart was so hardened and that he was
• 6:46
  incensed against the Jews. And you can see it in our day
• 6:50
  and our hour, friends. It doesn't make any sense.
• 6:54
  It's delusion at its core. It's Satanic, friends, and that
• 7:01
  is what is happening here. Pharaoh is completely incensed
• 7:06
  against the Jews. There is a vehement hatred
• 7:09
  towards them. And you see it even in our day
• 7:13
  and our hour, and it makes no sense, friends.
• 7:16
  And it's always, if you follow the trail, it always leads back
• 7:22
  to Satan and his fear over the fact that his head is about to
• 7:28
  get crushed and his time is short and he's trying his best
• 7:34
  to thwart God's plans, but to no avail.
• 7:38
  His head will be crushed and he will be thrown into prison for
• 7:42
  1000 years and afterwards he will be thrown into the lake of
• 7:46
  fire, never to return again. And that is his end and there is
• 7:51
  no hope for him. He is a pathological liar.
• 7:57
  He is the father of lies. He lies so much that he believes
• 8:03
  himself. And perhaps he believes the lie
• 8:07
  that he can outmaneuver God. And that is why you see so many
• 8:13
  people getting played by Satan even today, in this day, in this
• 8:17
  hour, in this arena, in such a time as we find ourselves in.
• 8:23
  And we need to be found standing with the Jews, friends all the
• 8:28
  way from now until the end. They're gonna make it in the
• 8:32
  end. They're gonna make it all the
• 8:34
  way. And God has a peculiar love for
• 8:37
  his people. And we see here they are the
• 8:40
  first born. And there is no replacement
• 8:42
  theology that the church has somehow taken the place of the
• 8:46
  Jews. God is still very much for the
• 8:49
  Jews. And if you want to know what is
• 8:51
  going on in the world, just look at little Israel to speak now in
• 8:59
  the ears of the people and let every man borrow of his neighbor
• 9:04
  and every woman of her neighbor jewels of silver and jewels of
• 9:08
  gold. So here they're going to spoil
• 9:11
  the Egyptians. The Egyptians were wealthy.
• 9:14
  And you can see how God's protection for the Jews comes in
• 9:21
  the form of wealth. And this is a hard concept for a
• 9:25
  lot of people who, when they try to demonize the Jews and they
• 9:31
  look at them and say that they control the world's finances,
• 9:35
  it's God's protection, friends, for the Jews, there was a time
• 9:40
  where they were forced into those positions of moving
• 9:45
  decimals because it was relegated to the lower classes.
• 9:50
  But look how God used it as training grounds for them to be
• 9:55
  scrupulous friends. And that is what you need to
• 9:59
  understand is that God's magnificent plan for all the
• 10:03
  ages include the prosperity of His people and the protection of
• 10:08
  His people. Never get it twisted, never miss
• 10:11
  it, friends, and if you do, it will be only to your undoing and
• 10:19
  your upbraiding friends. 3 And the Lord gave the people favor
• 10:26
  in the sight of the Egyptians. Moreover, the man Moses was very
• 10:31
  great in the land of Egypt, in the sight of Pharaoh's servants,
• 10:35
  in the sight of the people. Think about it.
• 10:38
  He told Moses back when he called him and told him to go
• 10:42
  back into Egypt and to be the one who helped to let God's
• 10:50
  people go out from the land that he had promised Abraham back in
• 10:54
  Genesis 15. Here you're going to see that he
• 10:59
  told Moses that Aaron would be like a prophet, but Moses would
• 11:04
  be like a God. And so here you can see that as
• 11:09
  he walks into the room, all the people fear him, all the people
• 11:15
  respect him because they've seen him stretch out the staff and
• 11:20
  bring lice and frogs and blood and for him to bring the hail
• 11:28
  with the fire. They've seen it all friends.
• 11:32
  And so here as he enters in, Moses has had enough and he's on
• 11:37
  mission from God Almighty and God has already told him what is
• 11:42
  going to happen. So he has confidence in God
• 11:46
  Almighty, Yahweh everlasting. And we would do well to have the
• 11:51
  same confidence in God, knowing that He can literally do
• 11:56
  anything and there is nothing that is outside of his reach.
• 12:04
  Four And Moses said, This says the Lord, about midnight I will
• 12:12
  go out into the midst of Egypt. 5 And all the first born in the
• 12:17
  land of Egypt shall die from the first born of Pharaoh that sits
• 12:23
  on his throne, even unto the first born of the maid servant
• 12:27
  that is behind the mill, and all the first born of the beasts.
• 12:33
  No one is exempt from the top to the bottom if you do not have
• 12:38
  the covering of the blood on the lentil and the doorposts and
• 12:42
  friends this is synonymous with today.
• 12:44
  It doesn't matter what race or what creed or what background or
• 12:48
  what age or what socio political status you have.
• 12:53
  It doesn't matter how much wealth you have.
• 12:56
  It does not matter your intellect.
• 12:58
  It does not matter if you're on the top list of the wealthiest
• 13:02
  people. It doesn't matter how famous you
• 13:06
  are, it does not matter, friends, how much money you have
• 13:09
  given to charities. It does not matter friends.
• 13:14
  In the end, all that matters is, are you washed in the blood of
• 13:19
  the Lord Jesus Christ and completely covered so that
• 13:22
  whenever God comes upon this earth and is wrathed in
• 13:26
  judgement, you will be passed over.
• 13:29
  Stand before a holy God. All He will ever see is the
• 13:33
  blood of the Lord Jesus Christ covering you from the top of
• 13:37
  your head to the soles of your feet, from your palms and your
• 13:41
  back. Friends is what we need.
• 13:43
  We desperately need the blood of Jesus Christ.
• 13:46
  We cannot get there on our own. It's no merit of our own.
• 13:49
  You can't work your way into heaven, friends.
• 13:52
  It is only the blood of Jesus Christ that gets us there.
• 13:56
  And that is what is mirrored and modeled right here in the 11th
• 13:59
  chapter of Exodus 6. And there shall be a great cry
• 14:09
  throughout all the land of Egypt, such as there was none
• 14:12
  like it, nor shall there be any like it.
• 14:16
  And that will be the cry that goes out when the chamber door
• 14:20
  gets shut. And the groom goes in with the
• 14:22
  wise versions. And there will be many who bam
• 14:26
  on the door and say, let us in. And there will be many who say,
• 14:31
  We prophesied in your name, we cast out demons in your name,
• 14:35
  and we perform miracles in your name.
• 14:37
  And he will say, Depart from me, for I never knew you.
• 14:42
  And he will say, The door is already shut.
• 14:46
  And that is what we need more than anything.
• 14:48
  We need the wedding garments that cover us, friends, so that
• 14:52
  when we come in to the marriage supper of the Lamb, so when we
• 14:56
  come in friends, he only sees the blood of Christ covering us.
• 15:02
  Jesus is perfect and holy blood. His sinless blood is what we
• 15:08
  need. And there is no forgiveness of
• 15:11
  sin without the remission of blood, without the shedding of
• 15:16
  blood, friends. And that is what we need to
• 15:18
  know, is that it is only Jesus's blood that gets us there.
• 15:24
  And if you are trying to work your way and trying to win your
• 15:28
  way into God's favor, it'll never work out for you because
• 15:34
  it is unmerited. You do not deserve it.
• 15:37
  What we deserve is hell, friends.
• 15:44
  There is no one that is good, no not one.
• 15:49
  And all of our righteousness is filthy rags in comparison to
• 15:55
  Jesus Christ's holiness and perfectness, His sinlessness.
• 16:00
  Friends, we all have fallen short of the glory of God. 7 But
• 16:10
  against any of the children of Israel, shall not a dog move his
• 16:14
  tongue against man or beast? That you may know that the Lord
• 16:19
  does put a difference between the Egyptians and Israel.
• 16:23
  Friends, listen, not even the dog barked during the night that
• 16:29
  the destroying Angel went out and slew all of the first born
• 16:35
  of the Egyptians. And unless you had the blood
• 16:38
  covering the doorposts which made the cross, unless you had
• 16:42
  that friends with the blood dripping down of the lamb, then
• 16:48
  the first born of the house would be slain.
• 16:52
  And this is what you need to know.
• 16:55
  This is what you need to understand is all of this was
• 16:58
  pointing towards the cross of Christ.
• 17:02
  And all of this, friends, is remembered in our taking of
• 17:09
  communion, with his blood being poured out and His body being
• 17:14
  broken for us so that we can have the forgiveness of sins.
• 17:19
  And we look back as a memorial of what Jesus Christ did for us.
• 17:31
  8:00 And all these, your servants shall come down to me
• 17:36
  and bow down themselves to me, saying, Get you out and all the
• 17:42
  people that follow you. And after that I will go out.
• 17:45
  And he went out from Pharaoh in great anger.
• 17:49
  Think about it, friends, Moses has had enough of the games.
• 17:54
  How many times has Pharaoh said, OK, you can go and then what
• 17:59
  does he do? He hardens his heart and he
• 18:02
  refuses to let God's first born Israel go.
• 18:06
  And you can see there is a great difference between God's first
• 18:10
  born and the unnatural branches that are grafted in.
• 18:15
  We are connected to the root of Israel.
• 18:19
  Never get it twisted, friends, never forget that.
• 18:22
  And if the natural could be cut off, how much more can the
• 18:26
  unnatural be cut off, friends? 9 And the Lord said unto Moses,
• 18:36
  Pharaoh will not listen to you, that my wonders may be
• 18:40
  multiplied in the land of Egypt. So God, he went ahead and told
• 18:46
  Moses what was going to happen. And he says, Look, Pharaoh is so
• 18:51
  incensed and enraged and Pharaoh is so completely debased, and he
• 18:57
  is in complete defiance against an almighty God who literally
• 19:03
  spoke everything into existence. And he upholds and he sustains
• 19:09
  all of creation with just the breath of his mouth, friends.
• 19:13
  And here Pharaoh is railing against Yahweh, everlasting
• 19:18
  almighty El Elyon, the most God, because he thinks of himself as
• 19:23
  a God. And he thinks that he can
• 19:26
  worship the Osiris and RAW, he can worship Hoffney.
• 19:31
  He can worship all of the false lowercase G gods of the Egyptian
• 19:36
  pantheon. And that it is actually going to
• 19:40
  outmaneuver and step over Almighty God.
• 19:44
  But it never works that way. All of this new age of cult
• 19:47
  garbage that has sprung up with the stones and the all of the
• 19:52
  disgusting Ouija boards and all of the disgusting tarot cards
• 19:56
  and the witchcraft and the land friends.
• 19:59
  It'll never amount to anything with God Almighty when he comes
• 20:04
  on the scene. And he will completely destroy
• 20:08
  all of it. And we take our books out into
• 20:10
  the streets and burn them, because we have holy reverence
• 20:15
  for an Almighty God. 10 And Moses and Aaron did all these
• 20:23
  wonders before Pharaoh. And the Lord hardened Pharaoh's
• 20:28
  heart so that he would not let the children of Israel go out of
• 20:32
  his land. So perhaps God desired to show
• 20:39
  Pharaoh just how mighty he is by not allowing the one that was
• 20:45
  prophesied to take Pharaoh's reign.
• 20:49
  Once Pharaoh died, his first born son, God was going to prove
• 20:54
  to him that God is the one that is in full control and that
• 20:59
  Pharaoh doesn't get to call the shots.
• 21:03
  And this is all culminating right here and right now.
• 21:07
  Stay tuned to see how it goes. I hope you've been blessed by
• 21:11
  this amazing chapter in God's Word.
• 21:14
  I know I sure have. I'm praying for every single one
• 21:17
  of you. I love you and we'll see you
• 21:19
  back here tomorrow. God bless you.
