Out From Egypt




Psalms 114:1-2 (ESV)

Tremble at the Presence of the Lord

1 When Israel went out from Egypt,

the house of Jacob from a people of strange language,

2 Judah became his sanctuary,

Israel his dominion.


Israel became the people of God when they came out of Egypt. Like Adam, they were taken from the the comforts and thinking of the world and placed in the presence of the Holy Spirit. Therefore they became a holy people set apart from the world. The Spirit would lead through the wilderness and to their promised land. 


The same scenario is happening with the body of Christ. We are called out of this world, given the Holy Spirit to lead us in the way of God and to reach the fullness of our inheritance. We sojourn through the wilderness of the world and hold out the light of God to the ends of the earth.
