Redemption has a price tag. For Israel to be redeemed, someone had to die. We see in Numbers 33:3-4 that Israel went out with boldness because their enemies had been vanquished. At the same time, their enemies were in deep mourning with the loss of their firstborn. We must recognize that redemption typically intersects with testing, trials and judgement. We will always have those that the enemy will use to challenge us and even at times try to detour us from the task the Father has us to accomplish. It has been that way, and it will be that way to the very end. Many of the tests we are all going through are conditioning us for others to come. Rather live in the dread of the testing, be confident of the deliverance. The price tag of our redemption is our faithfulness. We are here to sanctify His name. He has given us life and the opportunity to do so.

Gird Up Your Loins

April 6, 2023 • Bill Cloud • Numbers 28:16–18, Leviticus 23:6–8, Exodus 12:15, Exodus 12:16–17, Job 38:1–3

This week we congregate to acknowledge the command given to us in regard to the Feast of Unleavened Bread. Chametz (yeast) is to be removed from the congregation which is called to be holy. Tradition doesn’t allow for the smallest amount of chametz to remain at Passover. Just as we remove it from our homes and lives, we also must remove it from the Body. Whether in a person’s life or in a congregation, sin must be dealt with properly so we can hear from Him clearly. It cannot be excused, overlooked, or swept under the rug. In Job 38:1-3, when Job was confronted with the circumstances of his life the Father told him to “prepare yourself” (gird up your loins) because he was about to put him to a task that would require all of his ability. In conjunction with the removal of leaven, the Almighty emphasized on the first day of unleavened bread, when He brought His people out of Egypt, that they had to eat in hast and with their loins girded. Meaning, to be ready at a moments notice with nothing in our lives that could keep us from hearing His call with clarity.

An Exceeding Great Army

April 8, 2023 • Bill Cloud • Exodus 33, Exodus 34:5–8, Philippians 2:9–11, Ezekiel 37:1–3, Leviticus 26:38–39

Passover emphasizes God’s mercy, compassion and forgiveness. In order for a people to be redeemed, there must be a Redeemer. Someone to be selfless and die to themselves and for others. In Philippians 2:5-8 we see that Yeshua “did not consider it robbery to be equal with God, but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men.” By doing this his humility was required so that we might be shown mercy and forgiveness. He has entrusted His reputation into our hands. None of this is possible without the resurrection. His resurrection gives us hope that all His promises will come to pass. We must believe that we are all in the midst of the process; He is bringing to culmination what started when Yeshua came out of the grave. Through Messiah we who were afar off have been brought near. We pray that He may breathe upon us the breath of life as He did the vast army of dry bones, so that His Spirit may blow and topple the gods of this world that stand in our way.
