  • Daily Devotional: Exodus 12:42-51

    Daily Devotional: Exodus 12:42-51

    God instructs Israel to observe the Passover. Non-Israelites are to abstain from observing Passover unless they become circumcised (i.e. legal citizens of Israel). Why? God has set national Israel apart as His own national people. There is a certain inherent danger in Judiazing or Hebrew Roots movements which cause Gentiles to break some laws by…

    Daily Devotional: Exodus 12:33-41

    Go back and read Genesis 15:13. God predicted that Abraham’s descendants would be strangers in a land not their own for 400 years. It would be 30 years until Isaac was born and 400 to the day before the Israelite release from Egypt–430 years exactly. It is a date the Israelites longed for. In this…

    God not only instructs Israel concerning the first Passover in Egypt; He also institutes a week-long festival to commemorate their exodus and freedom. They are coming out of the land of Egypt, so, symbolically, they are to abstain from all leaven–eating only unleavened bread. During the week-long festival, the Israelites are to have holy assemblies…

    Daily Devotional: Exodus 12:1-13

    God instructs the Israelites to eat a passover lamb and spread its blood on their doorposts as a sign of redemption, a sign to the people. We know that God is going to smite the Egyptian firstborn (except for Pharaoh himself) about midnight of the night Moses left his presence for the final time (Genesis…

    The Bread and Wine From Christ

    Good Friday is the day each year we commemorate Christ’s crucifixion. There are many questions that fill our minds during this season. One of the most prominent is, “Why did Jesus have to die?” Couldn’t God have simply forgiven sin and gotten people into Heaven if that is what He wanted to do? The Bible…
