Daily Bible Reading — Sustained By God’s Word Of Forgiveness & Mercy预览
August 17
Introduction
All first-born males are to be dedicated to the LORD, and Moses tells the people that they are to observe the Festival of Unleavened Bread every year. God leads the people through the desert in the form of a pillar of cloud during the day and a pillar of fire by night.
Today’s Scripture: Exodus 13:9
[Moses said:] “This observance will be a reminder … it will remind you to continue to recite and study the Law of the LORD, because the LORD brought you out of Egypt by his great power.”
Today’s Reading
Exodus 13:1-22
Reflect
In what way does the Festival of Unleavened Bread provide an opportunity for teaching about God? What was the significance of sacrificing every first-born male animal to the LORD? What were the signs of God’s presence as the people journeyed through the desert? In what ways do you sense God’s presence in your life each day?
Pray
Holy God, daily you are with me, guiding me along my journey of faith. Teach me to be aware of your faithful presence and to follow your teachings. Amen.
Prayer Concern
Religious educators and their students
Tomorrow’s Reading
Exodus 14:1-31: The Israelites reach the Red Sea with the Egyptian army in pursuit.
