Read: Exodus 12:29-39
Reflect: To our modern minds, the death of
the firstborn seems barbaric, yet the old Pharaoh had ordered all the Israelite
baby boys murdered. Will this Pharaoh listen to less than an equally violent
exercise of God’s power? It seems not. The people are let go, with gold and
riches and unleavened bread, with a sense of urgency. Have you ever seen an
opening out of trouble and taken it? What made you trust that leaving was the
right thing to do?
Write: Here in the comments or privately
Recite: Psalm 9:9-10 The Lord is a
stronghold for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble. And those who
know your name put their trust in you, for you, O Lord, have not forsaken those
who seek you.
Pray: Heavenly Father, thank you for
never giving up on me. Soften my heart that I may trust in you and never be
separated from your love. Amen
