Pharaoh's heart grew harder, God's miracles increased.

 

The LORD said to Moses, “Pharaoh will not listen to you, so that My wonders may be multiplied in the land of Egypt.” Exodus 11:9

If Pharaoh would not listen to the request of Moses and Aaron, it did not mean that God would not listen to the prayer of His people. If Pharaoh would not release Israel, it did not mean that they would not be free. Israel was a slave so that God could manifest Himself as a Deliverer..

Pharaoh's heart was hardened so that the heart of God's people would rejoice in seeing God's miracles.

Pharaoh's heart grew harder, but God's miracles increased.
