BY MY NAME THE LORD I DID NOT MAKE MYSELF KNOW TO THEM / EXODUS 6:3

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Exodus 6:3

And I appeared unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, by the name of God Almighty, but by my name Jehovah was I not known to them.

BY MY NAME THE LORD I DID NOT MAKE MYSELF KNOW TO THEM / EXODUS 6:3

God did not make Himself known to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob by the name “LORD” (Hebrew Yahweh, Genesis 2:4).

  1. This does not mean that these forefathers of faith were not acquainted with the name, but only that God did not reveal the full implication, or meaning, of the character and power of that name (Exodus 3:14). The names used for God always reflect something about His character and power. They had heard and used the name Yahweh, but they more often referred to Him as “God Almighty,” a name that emphasizes His power to fulfill anything He has promised (Genesis 17:1). 
  2. Yahweh is God’s covenant-keeping name, which focuses on how He rescues people and brings them back into a personal relationship with God (Exodus 6:6). Abraham did not live to see the covenant of Genesis 15 fulfilled, but he did experience God’s power.

ASK THE LORD TO SEND / MATTHEW 9:38

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Matthew 9:38

Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest.

ASK THE LORD TO SEND / MATTHEW 9:38

  1. This verse expresses one of God’s most important spiritual principles about our actions and our part in His plans. Our part in the work is necessary because before God takes action, He usually inspires His people to pray. Only after they have prayed does God respond and finish what He desires to happen. What it means is that God has limited Himself, choosing to accomplish His plans through the prayers of His faithful people. 
  2. It is clear from the context of the passage (Matthew 9:35-10:1, 8) that the kind of workers Jesus desires in His kingdom are those who are willing and spiritually prepared to (a) spread His message and teach others what it means to follow Jesus and live according to His purposes (Matthew 9:35), (b) heal the sick (Matthew 9:35; 10:1,8). (c)  drive out evil spirits (Matthew 10:1, 8) These acts are possible through relying on God and the power of His Holy Spirit.

THE HARVEST IS PLENTIFUL / MATTHEW 9:37

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Matthew 9:37

Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few;

THE HARVEST IS PLENTIFUL / MATTHEW 9:37

Jesus challenges His followers to always remember that those who are spiritually lost – who do not know and follow God – have a priceless, eternal soul and will spend eternity in heaven or in hell. We must reach them with the love and message of Christ while there is still time. Many of them are spiritually ready to receive the message. They can be saved only if someone presents to them the good news of forgiveness and new life through Jesus Christ (Matthew 10:28).

NEW WINE INTO OLD WINESKINS / NEW WINE PRESERVED / MATTHEW 9:17

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Matthew 9:17

Neither do men put new wine into old bottles: else the bottles break, and the wine runneth out, and the bottles perish: but they put new wine into new bottles, and both are preserved.

NEW WINE INTO OLD WINESKINS / NEW WINE PRESERVED / MATTHEW 9:17

NEW WINE INTO OLD WINESKINS

In ancient times, goatskins were used to hold wine. This verse has been interpreted in various ways by Biblical commentators. Two views are:

  1. The “new wine” started as fresh grape juice. As it began to ferment (as the sugars turned to alcohol), the wine expanded in the process and the new wineskins would stretch and not break. But used wineskins, already stretched, would break. The “new wine” represented the message of Jesus, which brought a newness that cannot be held within old forms. Questions about this issue and interpretation may arise from the fact that the unstable and vigorous process of fermentation was sometimes enough to burst even the newest and strongest of tightly sealed wineskins (Job 32:19). 

A second interpretation of this parable (a story that teaches a moral lesson or teaches a spiritual principle) focuses on the importance of keeping and maintaining both the new wine and the new wineskins. (a) The “new wine” was fresh, unfermented (non-intoxicating) grape juice, representing the original and true message of salvation through Jesus Christ – a message that spreads in the power of the Holy Spirit. Jesus’ primary concern was that the original gospel (“good news”) and life-transforming power of the Spirit would be kept from change, corruption or loss. This interpretation would be consistent with Christ’s concern that the gospel message (new wine) not be altered by the “yeast” (teachings) of the Pharisees and teachers of the law. Yeast causes the fermenting process, just as the Pharisees’ teaching would corrupt God’s message by denying the spirit and principles behind God’s laws and commands (Matthew 16:6, 12; Exodus 12:19; 1 Corinthians 5:7).          (b) In ancient times, in order to keep the sweetness of the juice for a longer period of time, people would strain or boil the juice, bottle it and place it in a cool area. New wineskins were required because they would be free from yeast cells. If placed in old wineskins, new wine would more easily begin to ferment because of the yeast that remained in the skins from the previous wine. The fermentation process could then cause the loss of both the new wine and the wineskins (which would burst from pressure). Columella, a great Roman authority on agriculture in the first century A.D., wrote that in order to keep new wine “always sweet” it must be put into a new sealed container.

NEW WINE PRESERVED

Christ addresses preserving the new wine – His message of hope and spiritual salvation – so it would not be compromised, corrupted or lost.

THEN THEY WILL FAST / MATTHEW 9:15

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Matthew 9:15

And Jesus said unto them, Can the children of the bridechamber mourn, as long as the bridegroom is with them? but the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken from them, and then shall they fast.

THEN THEY WILL FAST / MATTHEW 9:15

It is clear that Jesus expected His followers to fast (go without food periodically in order to give greater time and attention to spiritual matters and prayer) after He was gone. We are now living in the time of the “bridegroom’s” absence (the period between His ascension into heaven and His return). The church (Christ’s “bride,” Revelation 19:7; 22:17) awaits and looks forward to the Lord’s return (Matthew 25:6; John 14:3). For this reason, fasting is also

  1. A sign of a Christion’s longing to be united with Christ at His return,
  2. A means of preparing for Christ’s coming,
  3. A way of mourning Christ’s absence and

A sign of sorrow for the sin and spiritual decay of the world (Matthew 6:16).

EAT WITH ‘SINNERS’ / MATTHEW 9:11

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Matthew 9:11

And when the Pharisees saw it, they said unto his disciples, Why eateth your Master with publicans and sinners?

EAT WITH ‘SINNERS’ / MATTHEW 9:11

Matthew 9:11-13 reveals a principle that should guide us in our relationships with those who do not know and follow Christ. Our primary interaction should not be for pleasure, entertainment or close friendship, but for the sake of doing good, being an example and showing the way of salvation – what it means to have a personal relationship with God (Matthew 9:12; Psalms 1:1). At no time should a follower of Christ date or marry someone who is not a committed Christian (1 Corinthians 7:39).

YOU HAVE NOT RESCUED YOUR PEOPLE AT ALL / EXODUS 5:23

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Exodus 5:23

For since I came to Pharaoh to speak in thy name, he hath done evil to this people; neither hast thou delivered thy people at all.

YOU HAVE NOT RESCUED YOUR PEOPLE AT ALL / EXODUS 5:23

God’s promise to rescue His people seemed more unlikely than ever because the situation was becoming worse rather than better (Exodus 5:21).

  1. Through these discouraging circumstances, God wanted to teach the people that often before He sends His miracles and the victory of freedom there will be troubles and difficulties that appear to make the situation hopeless. 
  2. Through times of disappointment, a believer must have faith in God’s Word and continue to trust Him to work out His plans in His own time. (Romans 8:28).

IS THIS WHY YOU SENT ME? / EXODUS 5:22

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Exodus 5:22

And Moses returned unto the Lord, and said, Lord, wherefore hast thou so evil entreated this people? why is it that thou hast sent me?

IS THIS WHY YOU SENT ME? / EXODUS 5:22

Moses either ignored or forgot what God had told him earlier about Pharaoh’s responses (Exodus 3:19-20; 4:21). He was disappointed because obeying God seemed to bring trouble rather than immediate success. God’s people today must keep in mind that God’s Word says, “we must go through many hardships to enter the kingdom of God” (Acts 14:22; John 16:33; 1 Thessalonians 3:3; 2 Timothy 3:12).

THIS IS WHAT THE LORD – THE GOD OF ISRAEL SAYS / EXODUS 5:1

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Exodus 5:1

And afterward Moses and Aaron went in, and told Pharaoh, Thus saith the Lord God of Israel, Let my people go, that they may hold a feast unto me in the wilderness.

THIS IS WHAT THE LORD – THE GOD OF ISRAEL SAYS / EXODUS 5:1

The story of the exodus basically describes a conflict between two gods: the Lord and Pharaoh, since Pharoah was believed to be a human form of the sun god Re in the Egyptian religion. Pharaoh questioned the power of Israel’s God (Exodus 5:2). Since Pharaoh had enslaved Israel, he mistakenly reasoned that he must be more powerful than Israel’s God. The ten plagues were the Lord’s way of showing His people that He was more powerful than any and all Egyptian gods. For example, the Nile, the sun and the fogs all represented Egyptian deities (having divine or god-like characteristics). But the Lord God of the Hebrew people defeated them all.

JOINED WITH THE LORD IN THAT DAY / ZECHARIAH 2:10-12

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Zechariah 2:10-12

Sing and rejoice, O daughter of Zion: for, lo, I come, and I will dwell in the midst of thee, saith the Lord. 11 And many nations shall be joined to the Lord in that day, and shall be my people: and I will dwell in the midst of thee, and thou shalt know that the Lord of hosts hath sent me unto thee. 12 And the Lord shall inherit Judah his portion in the holy land, and shall choose Jerusalem again.

JOINED WITH THE LORD IN THAT DAY / ZECHARIAH 2:10-12

“That day” refers to the time when Jesus Christ will reign on earth at the end of history. Then Zion, God’s faithful people of Israel along with the Gentiles (people from all other nations who are not Israelite of Jewish), will be considered God’s people. (This will represent the total fulfillment of God’s promise to Abraham in Genesis 12:3.) They will all enjoy the benefit of God’s presence among them. The reference to the “holy land” (Zechariah 2:12) is the only one of its kind in the Bible. This land was holy because it represented the site of God’s throne on earth and the place where the great King of all the earth will reign among His people. (The temple of God’s presence had already been established there and now was being rebuilt. One day Christ will return to reign on earth with Jerusalem as His capital city.)
