Introduction: In the account of the Passover, God provides a way of salvation through faith.
1. God's provision is seen in the blood of the lamb protecting Israel from judgment (Exodus 12:13).
A. The blood served as a sign for God to pass over, ensuring the safety of the firstborn.
B. This reflects Christ's sacrificial blood protecting believers from spiritual death (Hebrews 9:14).
2. The act of faith is crucial as the Israelites had to follow God's specific instructions (Exodus 12:21-23).
A. Faith was demonstrated by choosing and applying the lamb's blood as God commanded.
B. This obedience prefigures the necessary faith and obedience in Christ (Romans 3:25-26).
3. Passover points to the ultimate deliverance through Christ, as celebrated in the Lordโs Supper (Exodus 12:24-28).
A. The Passover was to be observed perpetually, reminding them of God's deliverance.
B. Similarly, believers partake in Holy Communion, remembering Christ's ultimate sacrifice (1 Corinthians 11:24-25).
Conclusion: The story of Passover invites us to embrace the salvation offered through faith in Christ. Just as the Israelites trusted God's provision by applying lamb's blood, so must we accept Christ's sacrifice to experience spiritual deliverance. As we remember God's past faithfulness, let us commit to living faithfully and sharing this message of hope with others.
