Signs and Wonders at the First Passover?

Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who acknowledge the books of Exodus and Joshua are true. In Jesus’ name, amen.

Around the world, people are about to celebrate Passover. This is a time for remembering how God delivered Israel from the hands of the Egyptians.

In Psalm 135:8-12 (ESV) we are reminded of the signs and wonders God did in Egypt.

“He (God) it was who struck down the firstborn of Egypt,
both of man and of beast;
who in your midst, O Egypt,
sent signs and wonders
against Pharaoh and all his servants;
who struck down many nations
and killed mighty kings,
Sihon, king of the Amorites,
and Og, king of Bashan,
and all the kingdoms of Canaan,
and gave their land as a heritage,
a heritage to his people Israel.”

God brought the people out of Egypt and eventually into the Promised Land. Celebrate God’s power and glory both then and now. Give thanks.

What About Christ’s Bones?

Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who see how prophetic Scripture is with regard to Christ’s bones not being broken during his crucifixion. In Jesus’ name, amen.

In Exodus 12 there is a description of Passover. Exodus 12:46 (ESV) gets specific when the Passover lamb is described:

“It shall be eaten in one house; you shall not take any of the flesh outside the house, and you shall not break any of its bones.”

Psalm 34:20 (ESV) is prophetic about the Lamb of God having no broken bones:

“He keeps all his bones;
not one of them is broken.”

John 19:33-36 (ESV) explains how the prophesy was fulfilled:

“But when they came to Jesus and saw that he was already dead, they did not break his legs. But one of the soldiers pierced his side with a spear, and at once there came out blood and water. He who saw it has borne witness—his testimony is true, and he knows that he is telling the truth—that you also may believe. For these things took place that the Scripture might be fulfilled: “Not one of his bones will be broken.”

Realize the interconnectedness of Scripture. Praise God that you also may believe.
