In Exodus 16, we find the story of the manna. Every day starting on the 16th day of the 2nd month for the entire forty years that the Israelites were in the wilderness, God provided bread from heaven which they called manna, which means “What is it?”1 Fast forward to the New Testament, about fifteen…

Bitter Waters of Marah Turned Sweet. After the Israelites were set free from the Egyptians and they crossed through the Red Sea safely into the desert, they traveled for days without water. They were miserable and complained. Have you ever been there? So Moses brought Israel from the Red Sea; then they went out into…

God led the Israelites around by way of the wilderness to the Red Sea. If you remember the story, after God sent ten plagues on the Egyptians, Pharaoh relented and set the Israelites free. However, as he was in the habit of doing, he changed his mind, and sent his army after them towards the…

The #1 sin of the Israelites was complaining. They complained before the law was given, and they complained after the law was given.

When Jesus created us in Himself, He put inside of us our spiritual DNA, our destiny, and every good work that He prepared for us. Today we just flow in our identity in Him. The progressive aspect of our lives on earth is just a progressive expression of what already IS: we have already been…

An apple tree bears apples. In the same way we bear the fruit of who we are. The change in our identity and person has already taken place, but the expression of the change is the outward transformation that people see. We move from faith to faith as we behold Him, and the new man…

The devil tries to confuse us about who we are. He tries to make us think the work is not finished, and we are not yet complete in Christ. His main strategy is to get us working and focusing on the fruit, instead of the Source. We hear the question from well-meaning Christians, “Are you…

…having forgiven you all trespasses, having wiped out the handwriting of requirements that was against us, which was contrary to us. And He has taken it out of the way, having nailed it to the cross.
