Abounding Grace

Pastor Ed Taylor is leading us through Exodus chapter by chapter. And as we enter chapter 33, this is right on the heels of the Israelites sinning through their worship of the golden calf. After you sin, have you ever wondered if God will give you another chance? He will... and then some, because He’s gracious. But there are consequences for our actions as we’re about to discover.

We’re learning what it means to be the church, and a big part of that is lived out by lovingly evangelizing, caring for and serving the world in which you live. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/302/29?v=20251111

Exodus Chapter 32 details one of the darkest times for the children of Israel, up until that point in time. The Israelites sinned through their worship of the golden calf. And because of it lives were lost. It stands out as a reminder that the consequences of sin can linger! To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/302/29?v=20251111

Last time on Abounding Grace we learned that impatience very often leads to compromise. And as we’ll see today, there are also consequences of sin, that can linger!

Have you ever grown impatient and took matters into your own hands? How’d that go for you? I think we’ve all been there. Today on Abounding Grace that’s where we find the children of Israel. They’re getting impatient, as they’ve been waiting for a while, and that lead to compromise! There are some lessons we can glean from this experience.

When we left Moses last time on Abounding Grace he was meeting with God on a mountain. Now as you recall, the Lord used Moses to lead His people out of Egyptian bondage. God also parted the Red Sea for them, and was merciful and kind to them on countless occasions. In light of all of this, the people are about to grow impatient and turn to other gods. Their impatience leads to compromise! Pastor Ed Taylor will relate this to our lives. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/302/29?v=20251111

We all have gifts and talents from God. For Bezalel, God had made him to be a craftsman, given him a great ability to build the Tabernacle. What about you? Have you identified your gifts and your calling, and have you embraced what God has for you? We’ll give thoughtful consideration to that today on Abounding Grace.

God calls us and gifts us to serve Him too. Now if you want a good explanation of how that actually works, turn with us to Exodus chapter 31 here on Abounding Grace. Pastor Ed Taylor draws our attention to the final instructions God gave for the building of the Tabernacle. As you’ll hear it has a great deal to say about how God gifts us to serve Him.

We take you to Exodus chapter 30 today, and about to learn how to have anointed and spiritually cleansed lives. There’s no doubt about it, we live in a filthy world. And so we need continual cleansing that God alone can provide. We also desperately need God’s anointing, or hand upon our lives. Without it, we’re in trouble.
