Facing the

Judgment of God
Exodus 11-12
 Exodus 11:1
And the Lord said unto Moses, Yet
will I bring one plague more upon
Pharaoh, and upon Egypt;
afterwards he will let you go
hence: when he shall let you go, he
shall surely thrust you out hence
altogether.
 Exodus 12:12
For I will pass through the land of
Egypt this night, and will smite all
the firstborn in the land of Egypt,
both man and beast; and against
all the gods of Egypt I will execute
judgment: I am the Lord.
 Things
about the
judgment
of God
 1. NO ONE IS GOOD
ENOUGH TO ESCAPE
GOD’S JUDGEMENT
 This tenth
plague had NO
automatic
exemption for
the Hebrews.
It was a great day of
judgment upon all –
it was the blood of
the sacrifice that
saved Israel.
The children of
Israel were not
saved because
they were
good. 
 Deuteronomy 12:7
The Lord did not set his love
upon you, nor choose you,
because ye were more in
number than any people; for ye
were the fewest of all people:
 Deuteronomy 12:8
But because the Lord loved you, and
because he would keep the oath which
he had sworn unto your fathers, hath
the Lord brought you out with a mighty
hand, and redeemed you out of the
house of bondmen, from the hand of
Pharaoh king of Egypt.
2. DELIVERANCE
CAME THROUGH
FAITH
But even though they were
saved entirely by grace, it
came through the channel
of human response,
through an act of faith. It
was faith that made the
difference.
God in his great wisdom
designed a plan that
required only one thing,
obedience. God said,
“That’s my plan.
Now do it!”
 Exodus 12:13
And the blood shall be to you for a
token upon the houses where ye
are: and when I see the blood, I
will pass over you, and the plague
shall not be upon you to destroy
you, when I smite the land of
Egypt.
3. SOMEBODY’S GOT TO DIE: THE
DEATH OF A LAMB OR THE DEATH
OF THE FIRST BORN
God taught that there must
be death to atone for sin –
the wages of sin is death –
either the death of the
offender or the death of the
innocent substitute.
4. FOLLOWING GOD
ALWAYS MAKES A
DIFFERENCE
 Exodus 12:50-51
•  Thus did all the children of Israel;
as the Lord commanded Moses
and Aaron, so did they.
• And it came to pass the selfsame
day, that the Lord did bring the
children of Israel out of the land
of Egypt by their armies.
