GOD”S Blessed Covenant through D’Vine Gracie

In the book of Exodus, we read about how the people of Israel were slaves to the Egyptians. God loved His people so much that He raised up the Prophet Moses to deliver them. Moses told Pharaoh to let the Israelites leave Egypt or else God would send plagues upon the land. After nine plagues Pharaoh still refused to repent; therefore, the tenth and final plague was the death of the first born of each family in Egypt. God, however, provided safety for His people if they sacrificed a lamb and spread the blood over the doorposts of their homes. God “passed over” the homes that had the blood of the lamb on the doorposts, thereby sparing the firstborn in those homes (Exodus 12:13).

After this event, God led the people of Israel out of Egypt.
Passover, therefore, is an annual biblical event that commemorates the deliverance of Israel from their slavery in ancient Egypt. Moreover, for followers of Messiah Yeshua (Jesus), Passover not only commemorates the miraculous events in the book of Exodus, but also our spiritual deliverance from the slavery of sin. The shed blood of the lamb represents the blood of Messiah. Those who have His blood on the “doorposts of their hearts” are “passed over.” Therefore, followers of Yeshua are spared from the death that we deserve because of our sin. God commanded His people to keep Passover throughout their generations “as a statute forever” (Exodus 12:14). Why? Because God so loves the world that He gave His only son (John 3:16). He wants the world to know so that they, too, can be “passed over,” saved, and delivered from their sins. As we keep this powerful biblical festival every year, it is an opportunity to hear and teach the Gospel message all over again!
