YOUR GOD

“I am Adonai your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, so that you would not be their slaves. I have broken the bars of your yoke, so that you can walk upright.”
Leviticus 26:13

It is time to recap. Starting in the book of Exodus we read of the Isra’elites being slaves. A total of 400 years passed with them serving in this position before Adonai called forth a man named Moshe. With staff in hand and brother at his side, Moshe went before Pharaoh time and time again demanding that Adonai’s people be set free. When the request didn’t work, Moshe entered with the power of Adonai and signs following. After the visit from the death angel, the people of Adonai were finally allowed to go.
In leaving, the men of Egypt realized they now had no one to build their cities and followed after the nation of Isra’el. The people of Adonai walked across the Red Sea on dry land. The men of Egypt were not so lucky and drowned. From the prophecy first given to Avraham, to the fulfillment as they crossed the Red Sea, Adonai’s promise to bring His people out of Egypt worked according to His plan. Now, as the instruction was being given, Adonai was not only reminding them that He was their God, but also reiterating to them that they were no longer to be slaves to anyone else.
We too, whether by lineage or adoption, are His people. We too are not to be slaves to anyone, be it man or sin. We too have the promise and fulfillment of Adonai breaking the bars of our yoke and setting us free from any and all captivity. Let us walk in the freedom that He had given us.
