THE NARROW WAY DAILY DIGEST

THEME:
The Mixed Multitude. I.
MEMORY VERSE:
“And a mixed multitude went up also with them; and flocks, and herds, even very much cattle.”
Exodus 12:38.
TODAY’S TEXT:
Exodus 12:43-45.
“And the LORD said unto Moses and Aaron, This is the ordinance of the Passover: There shall no stranger eat thereof: But every man’s servant that is bought for money, when thou hast circumcised him, then shall he eat thereof. A foreigner and a hired servant shall not eat thereof.”
TODAY’S MESSAGE:
Life is precious and it is loaded with many wonderful things for our sake and enjoyment by the creator. But then, conditions attached to the receiving of all that God has to offer must be met. Do we always hear and follow God’s instruction for the journey ahead? Dear friend, don’t forget that obedience is better than sacrifice.
Meanwhile, obeying God is the key to a successful relationship with God. For when we journey with strangers to our belief, and who are not ready to learn, grow and be part of our God’s calling, careful we should be, it is disastrous to our growth and well-being if they journey with us in unbelief.
More so, our today’s text reminds us of the regulation regarding Passover, *”There shall no stranger eat thereof…A foreigner and hired servant shall not eat thereof.”* (Exodus 12:43-45) What God has for God’s people, must not be taken by unbelievers. For it is not to be eating in unbelief, and result in condemnation. (1 Corinthians 11:34)
In summary, our memory verse cites an example of the mixed multitude’s journey with the Israelites, either willingly or not, genuinely in faith or not, with hidden agenda or not, if not checked out, could sow discord and a fatal blow to the people. Therefore, a fraction that seemly insignificant today, can grow and become unsurmountable in a little time. Watch out for those you journey with. Shalom!
To God’s glory alone.
God bless you.
Till He returns or calls you home, do remain in the power of Jesus’ love.
*Jesus is coming very soon.*
Be prepared.
DAILY CONFESSION:
I shall not be slowed down. I remove that which slows down my journey with God.
PRAYER POINT:
Almighty God and Father of all grace, with You alone, I journey in glory, grace, and power. Help me Lord, to be watchful and prayerful as I journey in life in Jesus’ name. Amen.
Yours in Christ,
