Day 3

God had finished giving Moses the Ten Commandments, but God continued to reiterate several of His commands. God was making sure the Israelites knew what was expected of them to walk in right fellowship with Him. God also wanted them to fully understand what He would do for them as they passionately pursued Him by walking in obedience to Him. ...

God’s provision for Israel was overwhelming, but what God has done for us in Christ far exceeds what the Israelites experienced. God promised the Israelites in (Exodus 23:23) that His Angel would go before them as He brought them into the Promised Land. Because of Christ’s death, burial, resurrection, and ascension, we now have His presence l...

God has called every Christian to serve Him through good works (Ephesians 2:10, Titus 2:7, 14, & Titus 3:8). He has also given us His Holy Spirit (Ephesians 4:30) so that in our good deeds, we bring glory and honor to Him in the way we serve (Colossians 3:23–24).

Moses, along with “Aaron, Nadab and Abihu and seventy of the elders of Israel,” were to come up and worship the Lord at a distance (Exodus 24:1). Hearing, reading, studying, and memorizing God’s Word should always lead us to wo...

Moses came down to the people of Israel and told them “all the words of the Lord and all the ordinances” (Exodus 24:3). The people of Israel received God’s Word, and, as God’s Word says in Exodus 24:3, “all the people answered with one voice and said, ‘All the words which the Lord has spoken we will do!’” The people of Israel said they were r...

God’s covenant was sealed through the blood and then Moses, Aaron, Nadab, Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel went back up Mount Sinai. God’s Word tells us in Exodus 24:10, “and they saw the God of Israel; and under His feet there appeared to be a pavement of sapphire, as clear as the sky itself.” They did not see God’s face, because t...
