Exodus 20 - Praying God's Word


Please read Exodus 20.

Meditate on verse 2.

I am the LORD your God,
who brought you out of the land of Egypt,
out of the house of slavery.

Exodus 20 contains the Ten Commandments, laws God gave His people so they would know how to live with Him and others. These commands came after the LORD rescued the Israelites from 400 years of slavery in Egypt.
The LORD saved His people first, then gave them His commandments. God followed the same pattern when He saved you. First He rescued you from your slavery to sin, then He wrote His laws on your heart (Hebrews 10:16-17). Keeping God’s law will not save you; only Jesus saves. Once you are in a saving relationship with Jesus, you will want to spend the rest of your life pleasing and obeying Him.
Pray Exodus 20:2-3, 6, and 20 over yourself and those for whom you stand guard as a faithful, prayerful watchman (Isaiah 62:6-7).

“LORD, thank You for bringing _______ and me out of slavery to sin. 
Let us have no other gods before You. 
As we love You and keep Your commands,
show lovingkindness to us and our families.
May we always fear You, so that we may not sin.
In Your name, Jesus~”
