TOPIC: In His Presence

OPENING PRAYER: Grant me depth of insight, revelation and knowledge as I meditate on this passage, O Lord.

TODAY’S SCRIPTURE: Exodus 34:18-35

QUESTION FOR REFLECTION
• Q 3: Is there any command for me to obey?

God commanded the children of Israel to celebrate three feasts: of Unleavened Bread (the Passover), of Weeks and of Ingathering. These were to remind them of their redemption from bondage and slavery in Egypt, the blessing of fruitful harvest as well as God’s providence and provisions throughout their wilderness wanderings, and the divine protection when they dwelt in tents during their transition from Egypt to Canaan. It is important to honour God by celebrating and testifying to His goodness, telling them to others including our children. We should never take God’s blessings for granted.

God instructed that the first offspring from every womb and the first fruits of the soil belong to Him. In the same way, He must have the first place in our lives. We must give generously to Him for the furtherance of the gospel. He is the giver of all good things which He has entrusted to us. We must therefore give liberally to God’s work here on earth. See 2 Corinthians 9:6-7.

Notice the effects Moses’ encounter with God had on him and how the people reacted (vs.29-31). Do your times with God have visible effects on you? See 2 Corinthians 3:18. Pray that as you draw closer to God, you will experience changes not just on your countenance but in your whole being.

• Any new insight or reinforcement of what you already know?
