Please read Exodus 13.

Meditate on verse 8.
You shall tell your son on that day, saying,
“It is because of what the LORD did for me when I came out of Egypt.”
The story of your salvation continues in Exodus 13. The day
after eating the Passover lamb, the Israelites removed anything with leaven
(yeast) from their midst. Paul explained the symbolism behind this Feast of
Unleavened Bread in 1 Corinthians 5:6-8:
Do you not know that a little
leaven leavens the whole lump of dough?
Clean out the old leaven so that you may be a new lump, just as you are
in fact unleavened.
For Christ our Passover also has been sacrificed. Therefore let us
celebrate the feast, not with old leaven, nor with the leaven of malice and
wickedness,
but with the unleavened bread of
sincerity and truth.
Before becoming a Christian, you were enslaved to sin. When
you chose the Lamb of God, Jesus Christ, He took away your sins, freeing you
from enslavement to them. God’s glorious freedom in Christ lets you remove
leaven (sin) from your life as you wholeheartedly live for Him.
Pray Exodus 13:7-8 over yourself and those for whom you
stand guard as a faithful, prayerful watchman (Isaiah 62:6-7).
“LORD, do not let any leaven (sin) be seen among ________ and me.
Let us tell others we are getting rid of sin because of what You did
for us
when You brought us out of
slavery to sin.
Because of You, our Passover Lamb, Jesus~
