The Passover

Exodus 12:1 The Lord said to Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt, 2 “This month shall be for you the beginning of months. It shall be the first month of the year for you. 3 Tell all the congregation of Israel that on the tenth day of this month every man shall take a lamb according to their fathers’ houses, a lamb for a household. 4 And if the household is too small for a lamb, then he and his nearest neighbor shall take according to the number of persons; according to what each can eat you shall make your count for the lamb. 5 Your lamb shall be without blemish, a male a year old…6 and you shall keep it until the fourteenth day of this month, when the whole assembly of the congregation of Israel shall kill their lambs at twilight. 7 Then they shall take some of the blood and put it on the two doorposts and the lintel of the houses in which they eat it…11 It is the Lord's Passover. 12 For I will pass through the land of Egypt that night, and I will strike all the firstborn in the land of Egypt…13 The blood shall be a sign for you, on the houses where you are. And when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and no plague will befall you to destroy you, when I strike the land of Egypt.
 
I pray you take some time to thank God that he has sacrificed his Son, Jesus Christ, the perfect lamb of God, for you. Praise God the Unblemished Lamb’s blood is on the cross. Be humble to confess the Lamb as your risen Jesus as your Lord. In love, then, thank God the Lamb’s blood is on you in the Spirit’s life-giving power. Rejoice the Father’s judgment passes over you, and you have life forevermore.
      May this day and forever be the Lord’s Passover on your soul.
