The Word of God in the Scriptures will do for you what no one else could ever do for you
During the Passover in Egypt, was not sufficient that a lamb had died. People had to apply the blood to their gates. We read all about Passover in Exodus chapter 12 and that was the Passover meal the night before He was crucified that Jesus Christ took the bread and wine, giving them a very special meaning and valuable for our spiritual well-being and welfare.
The Jewish people were slaves in Egypt for 400 years and now they were going to be saved, delivered, delivered, free - for a purpose.
Even if Jesus Christ died for the sins of the world, every individual must apply that saving, cleaning, protection of the blood.
I can not do it for you, no more than Moses could do for them. To be safe and protected, the blood of Jesus Christ must be applied. Within each house there was complete safety. Stay safe in the shelter.
Moses believed God and the people believed Moses. It was not just to kill the lamb, but they were eating his flesh. You've got to go beyond the blood.
Yes, it is essential that they were covered, protected and saved by the blood of the lamb, but they had to eat the lamb. Must be the lamb, the lamb must be in them.
Because they had to do this? Because they were going on a journey, and it happened to be a very long journey.
They were told how to eat ready for a journey as pilgrims, wearing the coat and sandals. There was a sense of urgency. Being fed hour security of your home, because things are going to move soon.
The blood of the lamb will be enough for your safety and protection, but your strength will be in the lamb.
The blood will save you, but for the journey, for the service, to the ministry, you need food. Eat and be strong. Let's start with the blood, but the strength comes from the power of the Word. Eat this and you will be strong, not in your strength or power, but as a result of what God provides and supplies.
That's why for over 40 years I taught the Scriptures of the Old and New Testament. In almost all of my other articles there will be something from the Word of God that we can reach and talk to you in a way I can never do.
