Anglican Daily Fountain 1 May 2022 Devotional | Wednesday

Read and Meditate on Today’s Anglican Daily Fountain Devotional for 1st June 2022 Wednesday. May the Lord bless you as you study today!

ANGLICAN DAILY FOUNTAIN FOR 1 JUNE 2022 DEVOTIONAL

TOPIC: INDEPENDENCE ANNIVERSARY

SCRIPTURE: Luke 1:39-49

After about 400 years of slavery in Egypt, Israel by the special grace of God, regained here freedom to become an independent nation. It was so unique that some translations of the Bible rendered verse 42 thus, “because the Lord kept vigil that night to bring them (Israel) out of Egypt, on this night all the Israelites are to keep vigil to honour the Lord for the generations to come.” It was a night to be commemorated unto the Lord for bringing them out from the land of Egypt.

Throughout the generations of Israel, this event was to be commemorated as a day of solemn remembrance. Nigeria celebrates her independence from colonial rule every 1st October; it’s always a day of public holiday for the citizens. There were however regulations governing the celebration of the Passover feast. No foreigner was to partake of it; it was only for the circumcised Israelites.

Spiritually, man became a slave to the devil by sinning against God, and so lost his freedom (Jn. 8:34). Thanks be to God who made provision for our freedom from the bondage of sin through his son, Jesus Christ. To partake of this freedom, there must be circumcision, not of the flesh, but of the Spirit (Rom. 2:29). This comes free of charge by accepting Jesus Christ as our personal Lord and Saviour.

Prayer: Dear God, make me a blessing to my family, friends and church in Jesus’ name. Amen.
