The Lamb and the Closets of Your Life

Wednesday, March 17, 2021

There was a day ordained in the Hebrew Scriptures, in Exodus 12, on which every Hebrew family was commanded to take a lamb home. Now it was on this very same day, when Jewish people were taking the Passover lambs to their houses, that Messiah was received into Jerusalem with Palm Branches and Hosanna - Palm Sunday. Further, the Exodus 12 command "Take the Lamb" can also be translated as "Receive the Lamb," "Accept the Lamb." This is amazing stuff. Redemption comes when you receive the Lamb, when you bring Him home, when you bring Jesus to the place you really live. We keep Him at church, in worship, and in fellowship. We never really bring Him to our marriage, to our relationships with our children and parents, the place we really live our lives. Do you really want the joy and blessings of salvation? Then bring the Lamb home - let His salvation have its way in the place you really live - in ALL the rooms/closets of your life. Open up those long locked doors and welcome Him in - for that is what Palm Sunday is really all about.
