Today’s
Feast
April
13,
2015 – Exodus 32
The
Golden Calf!
“for
all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, being
justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in
Christ Jesus,“
Romans
3:23-24,
New
King James Version (NKJV).
Dear
Saints,
Thank
you for joining us, as we prayerfully continue our Feast in Exodus
Chapter
32;
“The
people cause Aaron to make a golden calf. (1-6)
God's displeasure, The intercession of Moses. (7-14)
Moses breaks the tables of the law, He destroys the golden calf.
(15-20)
Aaron's
excuse, The idolaters slain. (21-29)
Moses prays for the people. (30-35)“
- Matthew
Henry Concise.
It
seems to me that people sin when they don’t see the hand of God
moving. At least that is what we see the God’s people doing when
Moses is delayed on the mountain with God. They decided that a god
should be made to worship by man’s hands. Aaron took their gold
jewelry and fashioned a golden calf for them to worship.
Retribution was quick.; “33
And the Lord said to Moses, "Whoever has sinned against Me, I
will blot him out of My book. 34 Now therefore, go, lead the
people to the place of which I have spoken to you. Behold, My
Angel shall go before you. Nevertheless, in the day when I visit
for punishment, I will visit punishment upon them for their sin."
35 So the Lord plagued the people because of what they did with
the calf which Aaron made.”
Exodus
32:33-35
NKJV.
God doesn’t work on our schedule! When you are not sure that you
are in God’s will pray and read his word. When you pray be
patient and persistent God will hear you. We can develop a
practice to pray without ceasing, giving thanks in all
circumstances. Sometimes when we are caught up in daily life we
may find it difficult to praise God; God’s Word the Bible
teaches us that all things are possible through Christ, we can
continually praise God in the spirit of praise and thanksgiving,
in the hardest of circumstances.; “16
Rejoice always, 17 pray without ceasing, 18 in everything give
thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.”
1
Thessalonians 5:16-18
NKJV.
Concerning faith when you can’t “FEEL” God, forget feeling,
you know how to build
the faith.; ”16
But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Isaiah says, "Lord,
who has believed our report?" 17 So then faith comes by
hearing, and hearing by the word of God.”
Romans
10:16-17
NKJV.
If
the Lord is willing I’ll send and post the Feast again tomorrow.
Do
you know that you are made in the image of God? You are an eternal
being, where you spend eternity depends on your relationship with
God? To be sure turn from sin just say this simple prayer; “Dear
God, I am a sinner and need forgiveness. I believe that Jesus
Christ shed His precious blood and died for my sin. I am willing
to turn from sin. I now invite Christ to come into my heart and
life as my personal Savior.“
If
you said this prayer inviting Jesus into your heart. Now turning
from sin, and seek fellowship just as we do. We worship and
fellowship in a Church (group of believers) that strive to
measures up to God’s Word. You need a Bible believing body of
believers (church) to worship and pray with. Our salvation depends
completely on God! We are the Saints that Jesus sacrificed his
life to pay in full for our sin, when we repent (turn from sin)
and accept Jesus.
God
Bless You,
Brother
