In this verse, the people are reminded of who they are and what God has promised to do for them. God had proved His power many times in Egypt, as plague after plague fell upon their cruel slave-masters. And as Israel set out on their journey to the Promised Land, the Lord tested their faithfulness along the way. The same God Who clothed the lilies of the valley and fed the wild birds guaranteed his people blessings in abundance. All God wanted from His people was that they continued to heed His Word, trust His promises, obey His commands, and walk worthy of the privilege they enjoyed as His covenant nation. They were not to lust after the false god's of Egypt nor walk in the counsel of their own imagination. Just as He promised to bless His people Israel and fill their mouths with good things, so He has given us all we need for life and godliness. He has clothed us in the righteousness of Christ and has promised to come again to take us to be with Him. I am the LORD your God, Who brought you out of the land of Egypt; Open your mouth wide, and I will fill it. Our United Prayer:
Heavenly Father, thank You for Your Word and the truths it contains. Thank You for rescuing us from the market of sin and for Your many precious promises, which are all 'yes' and 'amen' in Christ Jesus our Savior. Thank You that You are the same, yesterday, today, and forever, and that Your Word is truth and can never fail. We pray that we may not make the same mistakes as Your people Israel but learn every lesson You would teach us. Help us to trust in Your Word as we look for the any-day return of Jesus. This we ask in His precious name, AMEN. |
