  • Celebration- Exodus 23:14-19

    Celebration- Exodus 23:14-19

    God writes into His Law that Israel is to celebrate three national feasts each year—the Feast of Unleavened Bread (Passover), the Feast of the Harvest (Weeks or Booths), and the Feast of Ingathering (Pentecost). The fact that these are feasts, insinuates that the people not only sacrificed to the Lord, but ate of the sacrifices.…

  • Exodus 3:10-22

    Exodus 3:10-22

    God will send Moses to Pharaoh, but Pharaoh will not let the people go until God strikes Egypt with all the miracles He shall do in the midst of the land. God makes this known up front. He knows the process, and He knows the outcome. Moses asks two questions of God here at the…

  • Exodus 3:1-9

    Exodus 3:1-9

    Moses is out shepherding the flocks and God appears to him in a burning bush. God commands Moses to remove his sandals, calling the place where He has appeared holy ground. In his pronouncement from the midst of the never-consuming fire, I feel a sense of holiness that is not characteristic of any worldly thing.…

    Daily Devotional: Exodus 2:1-10

    Moses is born. When his mother can no longer hide him, she gives him up by placing him in a basket in the reeds of the Nile. The very river that meant death for so many Hebrew children meant life for baby Moses. Pharaoh’s daughter discovered him and named him Moses—meaning “out of water.” By…

    Daily Devotional: Exodus 1:1-22

    Introduction The Book of Exodus comprises a story that continues from Genesis. While Genesis was the beginning of all things and Israel, Exodus is the outworking of God’s promise to Abraham—namely the promise to bless all nations through his descendants. In Exodus, Moses, the books author, is born and leads the Israelites out of Egypt.…

  • Daily Devotional: Ephesians 5:11-21

    Daily Devotional: Ephesians 5:11-21

    The calling on the life of the Christian is to form the world positively. We are instructed not to participate in the unfruitful deeds of darkness—what Paul has already called immoral, impure, and covetous. Unfruitfulness is evil. Before we take this too far and become workaholics, we do recognize that rest to the proper degree…

  • Daily Devotional: Ephesians 5:5-10

    Daily Devotional: Ephesians 5:5-10

    The Christian puts off the old self, immorality, impurity, and greed—even no longer speaking unfruitfully or joking coarsely. We put on Christ and live for the benefit of others. We do so for, or because, we know with certainty that no immoral or impure person or covetous man, who is an idolater, has an inheritance…

  • Daily Devotional: Ephesians 5:1-4

    Daily Devotional: Ephesians 5:1-4

    Therefore, since we put off our old selfish selves and put on Christ, we are instructed to be imitators of God. We are His beloved children. Just as Christ gave Himself up for us as an offering and sacrifice to God as a fragrant aroma, we also give ourselves up for others. This is our…

  • Daily Devotional: Ephesians 4:25-32

    Daily Devotional: Ephesians 4:25-32

    Therefore, since we put on a new self in Christ and reject our natural entitled and self-absorbed ways, we lay aside falsehood and speak the truth to one another. The practice of falsehood is a selfish practice. We lie because we don’t want to be found out. We pretend to be righteous because we want…

  • Daily Devotional: Ephesians 4:17-24

    Daily Devotional: Ephesians 4:17-24

    God provides His Spirit and gifts each believer. Each believer is trained for ministry in the context of a local church. So, we no longer walk like the Gentiles, or like unbelievers. Unbelievers walk in the futility of their minds, being darkened in their understanding, and are excluded from the life of God because of…
