In this daily Bible reading is the account of God inflicting Egypt with His final sign or miracle. God killed all the firstborn in Egypt: both humans and animals. God even killed Pharaoh’s firstborn son. However, God spared Israel.
God instructed Israel to put the blood of sacrificed lambs on the doorpost of their houses so that God’s destroying angel would pass over them. God also instructed Israel to cook and eat the sacrificed lambs. Thus began the Israel tradition of Passover, which is still celebrated in Israel.
God wanted Israel to witness His miraculous powers over Egypt and remember them from generation to generation. As Christians, we too are called to pass God’s truths on to our children. Otherwise, these truths will be forgotten and will not guide future generations. The Bible says that we are to teach our children about God and about Jesus. We are also to be an example to our children as to how to live and how to make right choices.
America used to be a place where parents taught their children God’s Truths from the Bible. However, God’s Truths are no longer passed from generation to generation. As a result, the children have no direction. They do not know how to properly live their lives, and they frequently make wrong decisions. Unfortunately, America has become a godless nation and is headed for destruction.
