Exodus 11:1-3 "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. Speak now in the ears of the people, and let every man borrow of his neighbour, and every woman of her neighbour, jewels of silver, and jewels of gold. And the LORD gave the people favour in the sight of the Egyptians. Moreover the man Moses was very great in the land of Egypt, in the sight of Pharaoh's servants, and in the sight of the people."
The LORD’s dealings with Pharaoh were about to come to an end. It would be an end like nothing the land of Egypt had ever seen. Everything the LORD had brought upon them up to this point would pale in comparison to the thing the LORD was about to do. Not only would Pharaoh let them go: he would drive them out.
But before that happened, the LORD would spoil Egypt even further. They had mistreated and looked down on the children of Israel for years. Regardless of this fact, God told Moses to speak directly to the children of Israel and tell them to ask their Egyptian neighbors for their wealth. Both men and women were to borrow jewels of silver and gold, and they were also given clothing (Exodus 12:35).
If Moses had suggested this line of reasoning a few days earlier, it is likely that the Israelites would have scorned Moses for such a suggestion. But now, they had seen with their own eyes the might of the LORD of the Hebrews. They had further seen how the LORD had made a difference between them and the Egyptians. It does not appear that they doubted at all the outcome of their request.
Again, we clearly see who the credit belonged to in this situation. The LORD gave them favor in the sight of the Egyptians. The LORD cause Moses to be very great in the land of Egypt. The LORD caused even Pharaoh’s servants of his own house to recognize that God had elevated Moses above them.
Dear ones, may we never balk when the LORD tells us to do what would, in our minds, be impossible. He can and will enrich our lives with even the goodwill of our enemies when our goal is to serve Him. The LORD is able to make us great in the eyes of our enemies when we humble ourselves before Him. Always remember that it is the LORD who gives His children favor.
