Exodus 9:13, 15-16

"Then the LORD said to Moses, 'Get up early in the morning and stand before Pharaoh. Tell him, "This is what the LORD, the God of the Hebrews, says: Let my people go, so they can worship me. … By now I could have lifted my hand and struck you and your people with a plague to wipe you off the face of the earth. But I have spared you for a purpose—to show you my power and to spread my fame throughout the earth."'"
 
 
Even in the midst of God's judgment against Egypt, there was grace. God's desire in judging is not to destroy but to get people to understand who he is. That is always his goal. As you pray for unbelievers, pray that God would judge their sin in such a way that they will see God for who he is.
