Scriptures: Exodus 11-12, Psalm 91 Passover and Exodus Today’ text will play an important part of the scriptures for the rest of the Bible. All the way to the very end. Behold the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world. Behold the Lamb, who is worthy to open the scroll. It’s the Passover lamb, and the Exodus story that will frame for the Israelites an understanding of the mighty power of God. This story will impact their life forever. It will be the story they tell their children’s, children. The Lord God Almighty delivered His people and set them free from Egypt. God’s power is on display in the Exodus story, it is plainly clear, that no other god can possibly compare to the Israelite’s Lord. We are given great comfort in Psalm 91, “Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. They say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.” The Israelites are now out of the snare of Egypt. They will learn what it means to take refuge in the Lord their God. They are out of Egypt. Now they must learn to trust in the Lord. God is still moving us out of slavery and into life. Today is a day to trust in the Lord, and take our refuge in Him. We have moved from death, to life. Jordan
