HAVE YOU RECEIVED THE PASSOVER LAMB?
The Lord instructed Moses to have the people kill a male lamb without blemish and spread its blood on their doorposts, so that the angel of death would pass-over them. The Passover was to be an on-going remembrance of how God delivered Israel from slavery in Egypt. The Passover clearly prepared them for its fulfillment in Christ, who is the Lamb of God without blemish and whose blood was shed, so that we might be delivered from sin’s slavery and from death unto eternal life. The Passover meal pointed forward to Christ in preparation, just as the Lord’s Supper now points back to Him in remembrance. Jesus is our Passover Lamb.
PRAYER: Dear Father, thank You for the Lamb, whose coming was so certain that Your Word says He was “slain from the foundation of the world,” so that we might have our names written in the Lamb’s Book of Life. We have received Jesus as Lord and Savior and His blood is spread upon our hearts. We are Your children and You are our Father. Thank You for such a wonderful salvation. In Jesus’ name, amen.
