Freed to Serve A Good Master – Passover Devotional 7

April 16, 2017

Then Adonai said to Moses, “Go to Pharaoh and say to him: This is what Adonai says: ‘Let My people go, so they may serve Me.

―Exodus 7:26

When God called His people out of Egypt and into freedom, it wasn’t to a freedom without purpose or parameters. He called them to be a people unto Himself. No longer would they serve Pharaoh who did not have their best interest at heart. God called them into freedom through serving, following, and worshipping Him. They were to serve God who had promised to give them a land for themselves that was good and abundant.

True freedom is that which creates an environment for us to live fully as we were designed. We have been designed to know and worship God, who is the only One deserving of our praise and devotion. The apostle Paul wrote much about our freedom in Yeshua (Jesus) Messiah, yet he called himself His bondservant. Paul seemed to have a clear understanding that serving God is freedom.

But now, having been set free from sin and having become enslaved to God, you have your fruit resulting in holiness. And the outcome is eternal life.

―Romans 6:22

Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.

―Matthew 11:29-30

Father, thank You that You know what true freedom is for me. Thank You that in serving and worshiping You, I become free. Thank You for Your love. You are a good Master, and You have put the protection of Your Lordship over me. I will gladly serve You all the days of my life. I worship You, Yeshua. You are the perfect Lamb of God who purchased my freedom through Your death and resurrection.
