Daily Thoughts Exodus 12:1-28 — The Passover Instituted
Posted by admin on March 29, 2010
First let me apologize for not posting for a couple of weeks. I could give you a half dozen reasons, all valid at least in my eyes, but the bottom line is that I did not go out of my way to get this done like I desire and need to do. Hopefully I will get back on track this week.
Exodus 12:1-28
In this passage we have the Passover instituted as the Lord tells Moses what th epeople of Israel had to do the excape the death of the firstborn. Moses then tells the ELders of Israel and explains to them what they must do.
The feast of the unleavened bread is explained and instituted and the people are told how the put the lambs blood on their door posts so that the destroyer will pass over their houses on his way to Egypt to kill the firstborn.
The Nation of Israel is then instructed to continue to observe this forever to show that God spared them and set them free form bondage.
And it shall be, when your children say to you, ‘What do you mean by this service?’ 27 that you shall say, ‘It is the Passover sacrifice of the LORD, who passed over the houses of the children of Israel in Egypt when He struck the Egyptians and delivered our households.’”
Praise the Lord we have also been set free from the bondage of sin by the Passover Lamb, Jesus Christ. If you have put your trust in Jesus Christ as your Lord and SAvior you have been set free and will spend eternity in the pronmised land of glory in His presence forever.
