  Hello. Welcome to the No God Coach
• 0:03
  Huddle for February 11, 2026. A
• 0:05
  two-minute call from God's playbook to
• 0:08
  know him better so we can love and obey
• 0:09
  him more. Let's huddle up and hear
• 0:11
  today's play from Exodus 9, which says,
• 0:14
  "When Pharaoh saw that the rain, hail,
• 0:16
  and thunder had ended, he sinned still
• 0:19
  more by making himself hard-hearted, he
• 0:22
  and his servants. Pharaoh was made
• 0:24
  hard-hearted and he didn't let the
• 0:26
  people of Israel go just as Adonai had
• 0:29
  said through Moses. Brothers, in Exodus
• 0:32
  chapter 9, Pharaoh teaches us one of the
• 0:34
  most dangerous lessons in scripture.
• 0:37
  After God sends hail, thunder, and
• 0:39
  devastation across Egypt, Pharaoh
• 0:42
  finally cries out. He admits his sin. He
• 0:44
  asks Moses to pray. He promises to obey.
• 0:48
  And God shows mercy. The storm stops.
• 0:50
  The destruction ends. and relief comes.
• 0:53
  But listen to what happens next. When
• 0:56
  Pharaoh saw that the rain and hail had
• 0:57
  ended, he sinned still more and hardened
• 1:00
  his heart. Relief led to rebellion.
• 1:03
  Mercy led to stubbornness. Grace led to
• 1:06
  resistance. Pharaoh didn't harden his
• 1:08
  heart in the middle of suffering. He
• 1:10
  hardened it after suffering had passed.
• 1:13
  And that's where many men fail today. We
• 1:15
  cry out to God when life hurts. When
• 1:17
  money's tight, when marriage is
• 1:19
  strained, when health is threatened,
• 1:21
  when fear rises, we pray hard. But when
• 1:24
  God answers, when pressure lifts, when
• 1:26
  life stabilizes, we forget. We go back
• 1:29
  to old habits. We return to self-ruule.
• 1:32
  We stop listening. Like Pharaoh, we want
• 1:34
  God's help, but not his authority.
• 1:37
  Scripture says, "Kindness is meant to
• 1:38
  lead us to repentance. Every rescue is
• 1:41
  an invitation to surrender. Every
• 1:43
  blessing is a call to obedience. But too
• 1:46
  often we treat patience like permission.
• 1:48
  We think nothing happened. God must be
• 1:50
  fine with us. Wrong. That's mercy. Mercy
• 1:54
  rejected becomes judgment. Exodus also
• 1:57
  shows us something important. Sometimes
• 1:59
  Pharaoh hardens his own heart. Sometimes
• 2:02
  God hardens Pharaoh's heart. God does
• 2:04
  not force rebellion. He confirms the
• 2:07
  direction a man chooses. When someone
• 2:10
  repeatedly rejects truth, God eventually
• 2:12
  gives them over to it. And that is
• 2:14
  terrifying. The greatest danger is not
• 2:16
  suffering. It's being comfortable in
• 2:18
  disobedience. God's greatest act of
• 2:21
  kindness wasn't stopping a storm. It was
• 2:23
  sending his son. Jesus took our
• 2:25
  punishment so we could be forgiven. The
• 2:28
  cross is mercy at its highest. Every man
• 2:30
  responds to that mercy in one of two
• 2:32
  ways. With repentance or resist
• 2:35
  resistance. With surrender or with
• 2:37
  self-ruule. Pharaoh chose resistance and
• 2:40
  he lost everything. Brothers, don't
• 2:42
  waste mercy. Let it change you. Run
• 2:44
  today's play. Thank God for his mercy.
• 2:47
  Repent where you've drifted. Obey where
• 2:49
  you've delayed. And renew your
• 2:51
  allegiance today. Don't let kindness
• 2:54
  harden you. Let it humble you. If this
• 2:56
  huddle helps you know God better so you
• 2:58
  can love and obey him more, share it
• 3:00
  with a friend and write a quick review.
• 3:02
  This helps other men find their way into
• 3:04
  the huddle.
