Q: When do you want the miracle?
A: Tomorrow.
When I see this conversation lived out in verses 9-10, I always ask myself, Why? Why wait? If I see something I would like to have done especially if people are suffering then I want it as soon as possible. Pharoah didn't. Pharoah wanted God to bring deliverance from the frogs tomorrow. My only guess is that if something happened immediately then he couldn't deny it, but by putting the miracle off for a day maybe he could tell himself it wasn't God it was just time for the frogs to die? I don't know but then how often do humans do things that don't make sense when it comes to dealing with God. More often than we may think.
