The Morning Devotional Season 11 | Edition 60 Psalm 91 Providence Presbyterian Church Evansville, IN Pastor's Website: https://theparchment.net/ This devotional explores Psalm 91, emphasizing God's covenant faithfulness and the security found in dwelling under His shelter. The speaker warns against misinterpreting the psalm as a guarantee of physical immunity from harm, clarifying that its promises are ultimately fulfilled in Christ and apply to believers' eternal safety rather than temporal prosperity. By examining the shift between the psalmist's declaration and God's response, the message highlights that true refuge lies in trusting God's character amidst life's struggles. The exposition connects the psalm's imagery of protection to historical events like the Exodus and the Passover, reinforcing the reliability of divine deliverance. Ultimately, the sermon encourages believers to rest in God's promises, knowing that no real harm can ultimately befall those who make the Lord their dwelling place.

Jesus commanded Israel to keep His feasts in the Land of Israel. He never commanded the Church to do so because the Church can see that the Feasts are all About Jesus and He has and is fulfilling them.

In this text the apostle gives us practical instruction on how to conduct ourselves as those who have been redeemed out of the Egypt of this world and are now living out the true and better "exodus" to the promised land/new heavens and new earth.

Joshua 5:10-12 – The First Passover in Canaan - The Israelites have moved from temporary shelter and day-to-day wandering and provision to a settled home and abundant blessing in the Promised Land. How do they avoid the temptation to forgetfulness and ungratefulness of God's great salvation for them? How do we avoid the same temptations? - I. Old Passover and remembering salvation (v10) II. New Provisions and nourishment of their inheritance (vv11-12) III. Three Things to Sustain the Israelites IV. Three Things to Sustain Citizens of Christ's Kingdom V. Four Uses

Our Lord further prepares his disciples for the redemption he is about to accomplish for his people.

The five recorded Old Testament Passovers highlight their ceremonial limitations and foreshadowing of Christ. They contrast the temporary, external purification of the old covenant with the permanent, internal cleansing provided by Jesus' sacrifice. While ancient rituals required strict physical purity, believers are made clean through faith in the Lamb who takes away sin. This theological shift serves as a rebuke against antinomianism, with Paul urging the church to purge open sin rather than excuse it under grace. Ultimately, the Lord's Table is the fulfillment of Passover, where Christ's death secures true forgiveness and holiness for His people.

The sermon uses the tenth plague and the institution of the Passover in Exodus to illustrate the imminent return of Christ and the need for spiritual readiness. It contrasts the judgment awaiting those outside the blood with the hope and deliverance promised to believers who are prepared for the great exodus into eternity. The preacher emphasizes laying up heavenly treasures rather than earthly wealth, maintaining a vibrant testimony through obedience, and feasting on God's word to sustain faith during trials. Urging the audience to recognize the shortness of time and the terror of eternal separation from God, the message calls for personal salvation and active evangelism. Ultimately, it encourages a life of gratitude and worship in anticipation of meeting the Lord in the air.
