Transformation begins from the inside out. You have to become the change you wish to create. Let us examine the instructions the Lord gave to the people of Israel as they entered the school of adjustment in the wilderness. We will study the structured organized approach He required of the people in order to develop in them the integrity of character through righteousness in their inner-man, in their relationships and in their standing with God.

Let us identify with the Psalmists as they openly confessed their struggles with sin, their hunger for God and ultimately their victory in praise as a people. All of this is in preparation for our meditation on the passion and sacrificial offering of the Messiah who for the joy set before Him endured the cross to redeem us as individuals and to restore Nations to His honor and glory.

 

As I stated last month, may you find your own place in the purpose of God to deliver your people from the oppression of the systems and devices of men who are caught up in the evil plans of “principalities and powers, rulers of the darkness of this world and wickedness in high places.”

 

Regardless of the Theme for the month, this devotional exercise is always designed to guide you through a personal experience of self assessment, self effacement and self affirmation. Concentrate on selected verses as you read the scheduled passage for each day. Then meditate on its significance to your faith, and the importance of applying it personally and practically to your daily life. Keep a personal journal of daily reflections which you may share with others at the end of each week.
