Daily D – Exodus 7:6-7

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 – Psalm 112:4-5

Psalm 112:4, 5
Even in darkness light dawns for the upright,
for those who are gracious and compassionate and righteous.
Good will come to those who are generous and lend freely,
who conduct their affairs with justice.

Daily D – Isaiah 6:1-7

Isaiah 6:1-7 “In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord, high and exalted, seated on a throne; and the train of his robe filled the temple. Above him were seraphim, each with six wings: With two wings they covered their faces, with two they covered their feet, and with two they were flying.

And they were calling to one another:

“Holy, holy, holy is the LORD Almighty;
the whole earth is full of his glory.”

At the sound of their voices the doorposts and thresholds shook and the temple was filled with smoke.

“Woe to me!” I cried. “I am ruined! For I am a man of unclean lips, and I live among a people of unclean lips, and my eyes have seen the King, the LORD Almighty.”

Then one of the seraphim flew to me with a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with tongs from the altar. With it he touched my mouth and said, “See, this has touched your lips; your guilt is taken away and your sin atoned for.”

Daily D – Isaiah 1:18

Isaiah 1:18
“Come now, let us settle the matter,”
says the LORD.
“Though your sins are like scarlet,
they shall be as white as snow;
though they are red as crimson,
they shall be like wool.”

Daily D – 2 Kings 25:27-30

2 Kings 25:27-30 In the thirty-seventh year of the exile of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in the year Awel-Marduk became king of Babylon, he released Jehoiachin king of Judah from prison. He did this on the twenty-seventh day of the twelfth month. He spoke kindly to him and gave him a seat of honor higher than those of the other kings who were with him in Babylon. So Jehoiachin put aside his prison clothes and for the rest of his life ate regularly at the king’s table. Day by day the king gave Jehoiachin a regular allowance as long as he lived.
