Daily D – Exodus 7:6-7

by David Bowman | Jan 19, 2026 | Daily D | 0 comments

Exodus 7:6, 7 Moses and Aaron did just as the LORD commanded them. Moses was eighty years old and Aaron eighty-three when they spoke to Pharaoh. (NIV)

—

There are two notable points of information in these two verses.

First, “Moses and Aaron did just as the LORD commanded them.”

Second, “Moses was eighty years old and Aaron eighty-three when they spoke to Pharaoh.”

The open secret of lifelong success is found in the first point. Doing just as the LORD commands is the pathway to a most blessed life. It is not the pathway to a problem-free life. There is no such thing as a problem-free life, is there? It is, however, the pathway where God solves our problems, redeems our problems, and maybe even schedules our problems.

God’s will, done God’s way, in God’s timing, with God’s strength, yields God’s results in us, through us, and for the betterment of others.

Age is important. Every five-and-a-half-year-old child understands she or he is really almost six. Octogenarians are not obsolete in God’s purpose. Instead, those who have lived their lifetimes knowing and experiencing God have arrived at a special place of grace and wisdom. They are able to declare truth that stands the tests of time. They are able to guide younger minds toward more meaningful lives.

Two big questions arise from the examples of Moses and Aaron:
* How closely are you following God’s instructions?
* What does your present age make possible?

—

I will do what God says and live in the full capacities my present age makes possible.

—

Our Father, what do you want me to do today? What does my present age make possible that you can use to edify others? Amen.

Daily D – Luke 1:76-79

Luke 1:76-79 And you, my child, will be called a prophet of the Most High;
for you will go on before the Lord to prepare the way for him,
to give his people the knowledge of salvation
through the forgiveness of their sins,
because of the tender mercy of our God,
by which the rising sun will come to us from heaven
to shine on those living in darkness
and in the shadow of death,
to guide our feet into the path of peace.
(NIV)

Daily D – John 20:24-28

John 20:24-28 Now Thomas (also known as Didymus), one of the Twelve, was not with the disciples when Jesus came. So the other disciples told him, “We have seen the Lord!”

But he said to them, “Unless I see the nail marks in his hands and put my finger where the nails were, and put my hand into his side, I will not believe.”

A week later his disciples were in the house again, and Thomas was with them. Though the doors were locked, Jesus came and stood among them and said, “Peace be with you!” Then he said to Thomas, “Put your finger here; see my hands. Reach out your hand and put it into my side. Stop doubting and believe.”

Thomas said to him, “My Lord and my God!”

Daily D – John 18:10-11

John 18:10, 11 Then Simon Peter, who had a sword, drew it and struck the high priest’s servant, cutting off his right ear. (The servant’s name was Malchus.) Jesus commanded Peter, “Put your sword away! Shall I not drink the cup the Father has given me?”

Daily D – John 13:3-5

John 13:3-5 Jesus knew that the Father had put all things under his power, and that he had come from God and was returning to God; so he got up from the meal, took off his outer clothing, and wrapped a towel around his waist. After that, he poured water into a basin and began to wash his disciples’ feet, drying them with the towel that was wrapped around him.
