My Journey with the Pentateuch

 I have taken decision to prepare to answer and ready to share my belief on Jesus Christ.

Not only on this day, but everyday. We know that Gospel sharing is our call and strength.
I Read Genesis through Deuteronomy in the past 4 days. Spent time with Abraham (Virtually) on his difficult time, tested time, overcome time. Explored Issacs's view on God after his Father's lifetime. The management techniques from him to handle Esau and Jacob.
The life in Jacob's faith thrilled a lot while his 12 descendants formed. Joseph is the preview of Jesus in OT. What a journey he had. From pit to the throne. He had skills to manage entire country and everything he did as the Lord prepared. The humble explanation from him when he reunited with his brothers was a highlight. The Lord prepared every move for better, no matter what. If his brothers had not sell him and leave him behind he would have not entered into the era of Egypt. The marvellous country, city, civilization practised by the people with out the intervention of the True God. Joseph has changed the situation upside down. He lived in Egypt and not corrupted by worldly activities, however influenced thousands through actions as the Lord guided. He was like God to many of them including the Pharaoh.
When the non believer king arises I could feel the suffering of the Israelites, it was brutal. But it's God's plan to allow them to go through. Not 1 or 2 but 400 years. The new leader appeared and Moses did as the Lord instructed. Compared the sufferings to the current century problems we have. Problems are different, however non believers are in authority. God is still raising leaders like Joseph, Moses to protect His people and deliver them from Slavery.
Moses is real formation of God's expectations. He had natural problems the way we had. How did he overcome them by His Grace? This is the case study to go through again and again.
The dealing between Moses and Egyptian leaders / Egyptians were unique until they witnessed the real meaning of deliverance at the appointed time scheduled by the Yhwh.
Let's not forgot the Israelites, they are reflections of community that we have. Ups and downs in the wilderness journey forced them to question leaders and the Lord. Spiritual stamina was less even though many visible miracles, signs, heavenly bread, The Cloud navigation, Fire GPS given to them. Let's not forget the Jethro, Bazelel and Oholoab whole God identified for specific purpose and outcome. Skills and talents given by the Lord to form the society.

Exodus 20 and Deuteronomy 5 confirmed and reconfirmed the Ten commandments to keep close to our hearts. Do not forget that Jesus has reiterated them and simplified version published by Him to us who are living in Grace EcoSyatem of the Lord.

As Peter mention 1Pt3:15 - But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect.

Excellent journey I had and it's a free of cost package if you have 2-3 days for to spend.
Let The Lord anoint you today and forever to Glorify your Name. Amen.
