Good morning y'all! I have come to the thirteenth chapter of Exodus. This is a very exciting time in the lives of the Israelites...GOD is leading them out of Egypt. This has far reaching implications into your life and mine. Ladies, I wonder this morning if you are in a place called Egypt. Let's take a look into HIS WORD this morning. Exodus 13:3-5:
Then Moses said to the people, "Commemorate this day, the day you came out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery, because the LORD brought you out of it with a mighty hand. Eat nothing containing yeast. Today, in the month of Abib, you are leaving. WHEN the LORD brings you into the land of the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Hivites and Jebusites--the land HE swore to your forefathers to give you, a land flowing with milk and honey--you are to observe this ceremony in this month..."
I have been looking at the book of Exodus for a while now and it is very clear that GOD wants HIS people out of Egypt. HE does not want to see them living in slavery anymore. Because of HIS desire to have HIS people out of Egypt HE moved on their behalf. HE sent Moses to lead the people out. HE sent plagues to persuade Pharaoh to let the people of GOD go. We have now come to the place where they are out of Egypt, but where do you go with a couple million people? Let me assure you that when GOD brings us out of something HE has something to bring us INTO. The WORD says here: HE brought you out of Egypt with a mighty hand...WHEN the LORD brings you INTO the land of Canaanintes (The promised land)...
Ladies, you and I are not literally held captive in Egypt. Egypt for you and me equates to the sinful places we find ourselves in this day and age. It might be a total lifestyle choice of sinfulness, or it might be just one area of sin that holds us captive. Whatever it is ALMIGHTY GOD longs to set you free from that "Egypt" in your life. BUT, KNOW THIS: When HE sets you free from Egypt HE has another place to bring you into. When HE frees you from the bondage you are in HE INVITES YOU TO ENJOY A RELATIONSHIP WITH HIM. That is the best comparison I can draw to the promised land. Our promised land in that place where we have a deep personal intimate growing relationship with HIM. What a blessed place to live. It truly does flow with milk and honey...the sweet unadulterated milk of the WORD OF GOD and the HONEY of HIS LOVE lavished on our lives as we walk with HIM in obedience.
Have you allowed HIM to set you free from bondage? Have you agreed to follow HIM out of the Egypt? Are you willing to enter the promised land of deep personal relationship with HIM? THIS WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE!

Think about it today. Let me know what you think. HE is waiting to bring you into the promised land...are you ready?

FATHER, may we realize all that YOU desire to do in and through our lives. May we bend our knees and bow before YOUR throne and invite YOU to do a work in our lives that ONLY YOU could do. May we submit ourselves to YOU in order that YOU could use our lives to win many others to faith in YOU. Thank you for the privilege of sharing YOUR WORD with others. YOU are so AWESOME! I love you JESUS! In YOUR MATCHLESS NAME I PRAY. AMEN!

Have a great day ladies! Know that I am praying for you today and I am here if I can assist you in any way as you seek to walk with JESUS.

ONLY and ALWAYS Because of JESUS-
Vicky
