This is one of Chelsey's favorite episodes ever recorded. She walks through Exodus and points out the call over our lives as followers of Christ to have hearts full of reverence for God, to desire accountability for ourselves and others, and that we are promised a distinction between God's people and those of this world.
Exodus 35-40
- goes through the construction of tabernacle, making the ark of the covenant, , making the alter, making priests garments. These chapters show us that God desires for us to keep sacred what He has called sacred.
- We need to approach God's HOLY PLACE knowing that it is a HOLY PLACE.
- The alter is not a place for a show or a place to glamorize to make it look attractive to the world. It is a place dedicated to God the Father.
Exodus 12:24-27 - The Passover
- We must uphold the call that the Lord gave the Israelites to SHARE what God has done.
- We need to share scripture and TELL of ALL His wonderful works.
- Psalm 9:1-2
Exodus 15 - Moses' Song of Praise
- We should desire to write down the details of our lives that the Lord has orchestrated.
- We should always seek God with a heart of PRAISE!
Exodus 21-23 - Accountability
- We see in Ch. 22:1-4 that ALL are held accountable no matter who they are or what they came from.
- We need to stop withholding consequences and start to allow people to see the detriments of their sin, because in this place - they see the cost, redemption, and heart of the Father at work.
- Holding people accountable is NOT withholding grace.
Exodus 32:26, Exodus 10:21-23, Matthew 10:34-39 - Distinction
- Exodus 32 - the call to those who were on the Lord's side.
- Exodus 10 - the LIGHT over ONLY the Israelites (God's people) when darkness was over the Egyptians for 3 days.
- Matthew 10 - There will be a separation between people who choose a life for Christ or a life that loves the world
