Journey through Exodus (ePub)

In my years of studying the Bible, I have found several spiritual principles to be very appealing. I have read the promises about the possibility of being an overcomer. In the seven letters of Revelation 2 and 3, one reoccurring thing is the promises to the overcomers. If one thinks about it, you can either be an overcomer or be overcome. The choice is easy: I would rather be an overcomer. I have read the verses about the possibility of living life daily aided by heavenly wisdom. Listen to James 1:5: "If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that gives to all men liberally, and upbraids not; and it shall be given him." I have often asked the church, "On any given day, how often do we need the wisdom to make decisions and find needed direction?" To answer that question with "one hundred" would be conservative. To add to wisdom, we are told that we can tap into the heavenly supplies of strength, energy, power, and patience. According to James 1:5, God's not going to fuss at you if you keep coming back again and again asking for more.
The key to these and all the promises of the Bible are found in the discipline of a daily quiet time. When I was in college, with God's help, I developed this discipline to attribute any spiritual success, any success, in my Christian life to the help I have found in this daily time with God and my Bible. To remove any excuses, I have written devotionals for my church. We have started in chapter 1, verse 1, of a book in the Bible and have worked our way through it. We have covered Genesis, Exodus, Philippians, and Leviticus, to mention a few; and as long as God gives me strength, we will continue. The pages in this book contain our thoughts and our understanding of our journey through Exodus.
