The book of Exodus starts with a new Pharaoh but an old problem. Humans are prone to forget God and what he has done. The new king of Egypt was no exception. When we fail to remember God, all sorts of problems arise.

God be with You

info@naobc.org (Philip Brown) — Fri, 10 Feb 2023 10:00:00 +0000

We repeatedly hear a refrain in the Scriptures, "Do NOT be afraid." Now, this is not just in general don't be scared, for there are many things that do and should bring us great fear. But when you consider what is paired with it–the promise of God to be with his people–then the admonishment to not be afraid makes more sense. And this promise that God will be with you and will be with his people begins back in the very first book of the Bible. So we end our time in Genesis with this encouragement, Don't be afraid, for God is with you.

The Goodness and Sovereignty of God

As we finish Genesis and the story of Joseph, we are reminded that the Bible is a story, first and foremost about God. The story reminds us of God's goodness and sovereignty. This story teaches us to trust and brings us comfort that God indeed uses all things in our lives for his glory and our good.

It's helpful to put on our SPECS when reading the Bible. Is there a sin to avoid? A promise to claim? An example to follow? A command to obey? Do you see the Savior? In today's passage, we see Jesus as our brother who allows us to approach the King.

For the second time, Joseph finds himself in the pit. It would have been easy for him to be bitter, give up, or blame others when sitting in this Egyptian prison. But Joseph seems to have a different heart now. Devotionables #430 - Life in the Pits Genesis 40:15 F260 Devotionables is a ministry of The Ninth & O Baptist Church in Louisville, KY. naobc.org

Joseph

info@naobc.org (Adam Cole) — Mon, 30 Jan 2023 10:00:00 +0000

The narrator of Genesis now turns his attention to Joseph. Nearly all of the rest of Genesis is written with the spotlight fixed on him. But as we read through this portion of the book, we'll see that, per usual, it is God who is the main character. He is behind the scenes working to protect this family, to protect his promise, to bless them and the entire world through them.

Isaac and Rebekah have twins! In a plot twist, God tells Rebekah that Jacob, the youngest of the two, will be the one whom the promises of God will be bestowed and, through him, be a blessing to the world.

Trusting God with Hard Things

info@naobc.org (Gabriel Hinerman) — Fri, 20 Jan 2023 10:00:00 +0000

The Bible is God's story. In these early pages of Genesis, we learn much about God and the world he has made. We are learning about God's character. He is good, wise, loving, and strong. Everything he does is for his glory and our ultimate good. We can trust him even in the hard times.

He Who Laughs Last Laughs Best

info@naobc.org (Gabriel Hinerman) — Wed, 18 Jan 2023 10:00:00 +0000

God's promises sometimes appear too good to be true because God specializes in the impossible. One example in the Bible is when he gives a son to Abraham and Sarah. Their son's name is Isaac, which means he laughs. Abraham and Sarah both laughed, but God has the last word and fulfills his word always, for nothing is too hard for the Lord.

How Can I be Righteous Before God?

info@naobc.org (Gabriel Hinerman) — Mon, 16 Jan 2023 10:00:00 +0000

In God's economy, faith is that which is rewarded with righteousness. There is no amount of good work that you and I can do to be in the right standing before God. How can we be righteous before God? The answer is faith. The poster person for this theological truth is Abraham. We learn that God credited it to him as righteousness because of his faith. The Apostle Paul teaches us in Galatians that it is the same for all who place their faith in Yahweh.

Yahweh's Promises

Genesis 12 is a turning point in the Bible. The story of Abraham, still Abram in this passage, begins to come into focus. God tells him to follow after him and makes some astonishing promises. Again, the early chapters of the Bible paint Yahweh as the promise-making God. As we continue reading, we will also see that he is the promise-keeping God.

Job: Behind the Curtain of God's Providence

Job is a fascinating story in the heart of the Old Testament. Our Bible reading plan has us reading a few chapters and what a blessing they are to us. Job pulls back the curtain on the nature of God's good, wise, and loving providence. The book is entitled Job, but we learn much about God.

Noah, the Flood, and More Promises

The story of Noah and the flood is a fantastic story about God. We learn in Genesis 6-9 that God will not ignore sin. Sin must be punished. Yet a pattern begins to emerge in the early pages of Scripture that even amid judgment, there is mercy and salvation for those who walk with God by faith. More promises come, and God is becoming known as the promise maker early on in Genesis.

Hope in the Midst of Ashes

info@naobc.org (Gabriel Hinerman) — Wed, 4 Jan 2023 10:00:00 +0000

What is wrong with the world is a quintessential question for everyone alive. All religions and philosophies deal with the problem. The Bible tells us what's wrong with God's good creation in Genesis chapter 3. In a word, the answer is sin. Adam and Eve fell prey to the serpent's temptation, ate the fruit God had commanded them not to eat, and ushered sin and death into God's world. That is the fundamental issue with why this world is broken. Thankfully, God gives hope in that dark moment that he would do something to fix what we have broken.

Jesus has just fed thousands with a few loaves of bread and a couple of fish. The next day, he delivers a long sermon called the Bread of Life discourse. After discussing with the crowd, many of his followers leave after his "hard sayings." When asking the remaining disciples if they would also like to leave, Peter answers, "To whom shall we go?

Mary's "Magnificat" is one of four songs in Luke's infancy narrative. It's a God-exalting, Scripture-saturated prose of the overflow of the mother of Jesus's heart.

The hymn, "O Come, O Come, Emmanuel," reminds us of God's promises to free his people from Satan, sin, and death through the victory of King Jesus–the promised rod of Jesse. The LORD brings magnificent victory to his people in the most unbelievable ways. Through humility and seeming defeat, the Lord Jesus takes on flesh, lives a perfect life, and is hung on a criminal's cross. It looks like Satan rules the day. But on Sunday, everything changes. Victory belongs to King Jesus, and his people share in his triumph.

Boaz wastes no time settling the matter of Ruth and Naomi's redemption. He approaches the nearer kinsman redeemer.

Boaz proves himself to be a faithful redeemer and thus brings hope to Ruth and Naomi. We see it demonstrated in the change in Naomi's tone and actions.

"Let go, let God" is a common phrase in Christian circles. At its best, it can be helpful. But for many, it tends to lead toward faithless passivity. In Ruth, we see the characters all acting in faith. Each of them operates in righteousness. God works through their actions to bring blessings. Where do you need to act faithfully where perhaps you've been too passive? Devotionables #386: Ruth 3:1-5 Let Go, Let God?

The narrator of Ruth introduces the readers to a new character in chapter 2. The introduction is intentionally prolonged to heighten its importance and stresses the character of the man called Boaz. We learn that Boaz is a mighty man of character who is a kinsman redeemer in Elimelech's line. He is meticulously faithful to the Lord and his law. He protects and cares for Ruth and Naomi. The Lord providentially works through Boaz to bring about redemption for Naomi and Ruth; and also you and me. For through Boaz, we get David.

Everything we have comes from the Lord. Yet, even as believers and in churches, we can judge ourselves as having arrived. Our ingenuity, strength, and resources have caused us to reach certain levels, or so we think. Laodicea had fallen into this trap, and it led them to complacency. Thankfully, the Lord Jesus reproves those he loves. He told the church at Laodicea to repent of their lukewarmness and come to him for all they needed.

It's tempting to compromise in our lives for friendships, promotions, and our general welfare. We can tweak Biblical teaching to allow us to engage in practices that are not holy.

Anger and fear are two sides of the same coin. Both emotions reveal hearts that want to be in control. We respond with fear or anger when a desire is denied or a treasure threatened.

Life. The Bible tells us a great deal about it and is a prevailing theme in its pages. God is the Author of life. When sin came into the world, so did death. God has done something about it and offers eternal life to all who look to Jesus in faith. As God's people, we must be a people of life.

Is man born basically good? The answer to that question is crucial. The Bible has the answer to these questions, bringing us to the word sin in our study through Bible Themes and Words of the Bible. The Bible tells us that we are sinners by birth and sinners by choice. Sin entered into the world through Adam. But God's story is a story of redemption through the God-man, the perfect, sinless Jesus Christ. Jason Dierking talks to us about the fall, sin, and hope of redemption through faith in Jesus in today's devotionable.

Election

The election is an essential word in the Bible and must be studied carefully and with humility. We shouldn't stress this doctrine more or less than the authors of Scripture but should seek to receive the teaching in ways that cause us to marvel at God's grace, worship him with tremendous passion, and fervently share the good news of his saving grace with all!

Adam

Adam is the first man. Created in God's image and given authority to rule over the rest of God's creation as God's viceroy. We know the tragic story of the fall, but over against that stands the beautiful picture of redemption found only in the second Adam, the Lord Jesus Christ!
