Exodus 9 · Grade 4
Fearing God's Word
Read and Think
The plagues became more serious. God struck the Egyptians' livestock and then sent boils on people. Egypt's magicians, who once copied God's signs, could not even stand before Moses.
Before the hail, God mercifully gave a warning. Some Egyptians feared God's word and protected their servants and animals. God's mercy was offered even to Egyptians who would listen.
Pharaoh admitted, I have sinned, but he didn't truly change. When the trouble stopped, he sinned again. Moses said the purpose was that you may know that the earth is Yahweh's.

Think About It
Some Egyptians believed God's warning. What does this show about God's mercy to all people?
Psalm 24:1 says the earth is the Lord's. How should that change how you treat creation and your things?
Memory Verse
“Moses said to him, “As soon as I have gone out of the city, I will spread out my hands to Yahweh. The thunders shall cease, and there will not be any more hail; that you may know that the earth is Yahweh’s.”
