Hebrews 11:28 By faith he kept the Passover and the sprinkling of the blood, so that he who destroyed the firstborn would not touch them. Moses led the people of Israel to keep God’s commandment to observe the first Passover. In Exodus 12:28 we read, “Then the sons of Israel went and did so; just as the LORD had commanded Moses and Aaron, so they did.” We learn from this verse in Hebrews that God did not destroy the firstborn of Israel due to Moses’ faith. This encourages us that as we walk in love by faith, many people may be blessed. Our abiding in Christ and living to love with Him is not about us only. God intends for many to experience His love, protection, and blessing. Think about the amazing extent of Jesus’ loving sacrifice that the Passover sacrifice portrays as you listen to Rom. 5:8-9, 15. But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from the wrath of God through Him. But the free gift is not like the transgression. For if by the transgression of the one the many died, much more did the grace of God and the gift by the grace of the one Man, Jesus Christ, abound to the many. Jesus is our Passover lamb. We have been sprinkled by His blood. Through Him, we escape death, and through His life, we live, receiving grace upon grace. Daily, we live in the blessing of Jesus’ sacrifice so that we might live out of His fullness and be a channel of His love in this world. Moses’ faith brought blessing to an entire nation through which we have received a savior, Jesus Christ, our Lord. Through Him, we live to love, so we might pass on the blessing of life in Christ to many.
