Exodus 31-33
by Audrey Rogers on February 2nd, 2023
Daily Devotional from Exodus 32--Verse 14Then the Lord relented and did not bring on his people the disaster he had threatened.For many of us, the idea of an angry and fuming God is all we can imagine. God is angry at sin. Sinners are to stand before a righteous God and be judged for their evildoing. God’s judgment will come to the unrighteous. All of this is true. But what we see here, is that th... Read More

Daily Devotional from Exodus 23--Verse 10Six days you shall do your work, but on the seventh day you shall rest.Some songs have no rhythm. Everything just bleeds together. Non-stop work has no rhythm. Fitting everything in your schedule has no rhythm. Saying yes to every opportunity has no rhythm. But a cadence of creation was set in place back in Genesis 1-2.

Exodus 19-21
by Audrey Rogers on January 28th, 2023
Daily Devotional from Exodus 20-- Verse 3You shall have no other gods before me. In Exodus 19-21, we see a stunning display of God’s power and His outline for morality for the people of Israel. These are the first laws given to them to follow, and they come down to two things: love God and love your neighbor (Mark 12:29-31). This is the struggle of the human condition. It’s hard for us to love God... Read More

Exodus 7-9
by Audrey Rogers on January 24th, 2023
Daily Devotional from Exodus 9--Verse 35So the heart of Pharaoh was hardened, and he did not let the people of Israel go, just as the Lord had spoken through Moses.This little sentence is getting rather repetitive here, isn't it? Moses foretells a plague, God sends the plague, and Pharaoh hardens his heart and refuses to let the people of Israel go. I don't know about you, but I don't want God to ... Read More
Exodus 4-6
by Audrey Rogers on January 23rd, 2023
Daily Devotional from Exodus 4--Verse 14Is there not Aaron, your brother, the Levite? I know that he can speak well. Moses: Then why didn’t you choose Aaron in the first place?

You know Aaron is better at this kind of thing. God: But I haven’... Read More

Daily Devotional from Exodus 3--Verse 11But Moses said to God, “Who am I that I should go to Pharaoh and bring the children of Israel out of Egypt?â€I remember the day I felt the Holy Spirit speak to me about pursuing worship ministry.

Daily Devotional from Exodus 40-- Verse 33Moses finished the work. Moses did according to all that the Lord had commanded him. Nothing was left undone. He finished the work. He built the house. And today there’s another house being constructed. But this one is not made of gold, silver, and precious stones. Rather, this one is made of living stones. You and I are being built together into a dwellin... Read More
Exodus 37-39
by Audrey Rogers on February 4th, 2021
Daily Devotional from Exodus 39-- Verse 43And Moses saw all the work, and behold, they had done it; as the LORD had commanded, so they had done it. Extravagant—that’s how I would describe the final result of the Tent of Meeting. The Israelites worked hard to follow all that God had commanded in the building of the temple—especially the craftsman, designers, and perfumers. The end result was a plac... Read More
