       Exodus  12:33-36  says,  "And the  Egyptians \~ere  urgent  ipon  the
       people,  that they might send them out of the land in haste; for they
       said,  We  be all dead men.  And the people took their dough before it
       was leavened,  their kneadingtroughs being bound up in their clothes
       upon their shoulders.  And the children of Israel did according to the
       word of Moses; and they borrowed of the Egyptians jewels of silver,                    .
       and jewels of gold, and raiment: Aird the LORD gave the people favour in
       the sight of the Egyptians,  so that they lent unto them such things as
       they required. And they spoiled the Egyptians. "

       The plan continued to unfold.  Pharaoh ignored all of the plagues until
       it came to the last one - the death of the firstborn, with his son losing
       his life.  That  stirred him  and  he makes  a  decision to  release  the
       people.  Yet, even after the release, Pharaoh has a change of heart and
       decided to go after the children of Israel who had made it to the brink
       of The Red Sea.  Because God had already spoken, even The Red Sea
       would have to obey and not do any harm to God's people; however, as
       Pharaoh  and  His  army  pursued,  the  Red  Sea  split  allowing  the
       children  of  Israel  to  cross  through  on  dry  ground.  But  when
       Pharaoh's  crew  thought  they  would  have  safe  passage,  God
       commanded the Sea to close up on them causing every one of them to
       drown,  with  even  the  chariots  buried  under  water.   When  God
      chooses to bless you,  nothing can hinder His command from  being
       fulfilled.


                          What  happened  to  the  debt  from  the  Israelites
                         borrowing the jewels, gold and raiment?  Well it
        t;;.,~ .   .
           --.,..,
        "'"SIDI~~        was  instantaneous  "debt-cancellation".  Who
                         would  collect???  God knows  how to  repay His
                         people.  We just have to believe.
