According to Moses, God listened to him and made all the frogs die, so they were no longer in people's homes, villages, and fields. This shows that God can do powerful things and answers prayers.

James 1:17: Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.

Contradiction with Numbers 23:19

Here it is stated that God does not change His mind like humans do, which can be seen as contradicting Exodus 8:13 where God alters the situation based on Moses' request.

Numbers 23:19: God [is] not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do [it]? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good?

Contradiction with Malachi 3:6

This verse declares that the Lord does not change, contradicting Exodus 8:13 where God appears to change the situation by removing the frogs after Moses' plea.

This verse illustrates that while humans have many plans, it is the counsel of the Lord that stands, suggesting divine immutability, contrasting with Exodus 8:13 where God's actions are in response to a human request.

Proverbs 19:21: [There are] many devices in a man's heart; nevertheless the counsel of the LORD, that shall stand.

Contradiction with Isaiah 55:11

Indicates that God's word achieves what He desires, seemingly counter to Exodus 8:13 where there's an immediate response to a prophetic intermediary's plea.

Isaiah 55:11: So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper [in the thing] whereto I sent it.
