The Seventh Plague – Hail from Heaven
Once again, God commanded Moses to rise early and confront Pharaoh with His demand: “Let My people go, so that they may worship Me.” But this time, the message deepened. The Lord spoke through Moses with a sobering warning: “This time I will send the full force of My plagues against you... so you may know that there is no one like Me in all the earth.”
God gave Pharaoh a chance to prepare. Any people or animals left in the fields would die when the storm struck. For the first time, a choice was given—an opportunity for the Egyptians to heed God’s word. Some did. They brought their servants and livestock inside. But others ignored the warning, choosing pride over prudence.
