  • Daily Devotional: Exodus 12:33-41

    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…

  • Daily Devotional: Exodus 12:15-32

    Daily Devotional: Exodus 12:15-32

    God sees the blood on the frames of the Israelite doors and passes over them, not allowing the destroyer to go in. I find this wording interesting. From Genesis 4:23 onward, God has said that He will personally kill the firstborn. Yet, here we read about Him sending in or withholding a destroyer–a character some…

  • Daily Devotional: Exodus 12:14-22

    Daily Devotional: Exodus 12:14-22

    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…

  • BUILDING ON THE ROCK

    BUILDING ON THE ROCK

    Jesus has been preaching His most popular sermon, what we call the “Sermon on the Mount.” It is the single most important sermon in all of history. It is the centerpiece of Christian living, a sermon we want to plunge the depths of if we want to live significant lives. The entire sermon is important,…

  • Will You Be Found REady When the Leaves Fall?

    Will You Be Found REady When the Leaves Fall?

    Jesus’s disciples have asked Him about the signs that would precede the destruction of the Temple complex. Jesus has accurately predicted the events leading to the Temple’s destruction in AD 70. He has also revealed that under the new paradigm, He will send His messengers out with a great trumpet and they will gather together…

  • How to be Righteous Before God

    How to be Righteous Before God

    Melchizedek, the prophet/priest/king of Salem (later Jerusalem), represents the order of faith that transcends the Law. Moses makes it clear to the Israelites that the Law does not determine their faith or righteousness before God. Being the people of God was never about keeping a Law. It was always about God’s faithfulness. Abram is blessed…

  • Daily Devotional: Exodus 12:1-13

    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…

  • Daily Devotional: Exodus 11:1-10

    Daily Devotional: Exodus 11:1-10

    Here, we read that Moses and the Israelites have favor in the sight of many Egyptians, even Pharaoh’s servants. Yet, Pharaoh’s heart is hardened. Thus, we arrive at the final plague that God predicted in Exodus 4:23. At midnight on this day, God will Himself go into the midst of Egypt to take the firstborn…

  • UFOs Reported Over Jerusalem

    UFOs Reported Over Jerusalem

    Jesus has called Jerusalem desolate and lamented over the city. The disciples pointed out the buildings, and Jesus predicted that not one stone would be left upon another. In response, His disciples asked when the end of Jerusalem would be and what would be the signs that Christ was coming in judgment, so as to…

  • Melchizedek: Prophet, Priest, and King

    Melchizedek: Prophet, Priest, and King

    Genesis, the story of beginnings, revolves around several key events leading up to the founding of Israel as a people with a national identity.  Even though I have so far taken 19 parts to walk through Genesis form 1:1 so far, the story is simple. God chooses and establishes a people for Himself, though whom…
