God Will Redeem
Read Exodus 5-6
Ex 6:6-7 “Therefore, say to the Israelites: ‘I am the LORD, and I will bring you out from under the yoke of the Egyptians. I will free you from being slaves to them, and I will redeem you with an outstretched arm and with mighty acts of judgment. 7 I will take you as my own people, and I will be your God.’”
GOD IS getting very personal. He tells the enslaved Hebrews that he will free them with his power. He will redeem them, bring them into a new life away from their bondage. And when they are redeemed, he will welcome them as his own. He will be their God forever!
Wow—that is so incredibly amazing. Think of God’s amazing offer.
Yes, God gave this message to his people then, and he has given the same message to us repeatedly through the ages.
Then he underscored, highlighted, made it bold, italicized and made it extra, extra large font with his Son. Jesus’ birth, life, death and resurrection is the power of God’s right arm outstretched through the centuries for you. This is the reality of your freedom from the Slave Master Sin. Through faith in Jesus, you are redeemed.
God has always been about freedom from bondage. His purpose is constant to be your God. You can trust a constant God of such power, grace and love.
Pause and Consider: How do you enjoy freedom in Jesus?
