God’s Family Plan: Establishing Generational Blessing

God has a family plan for each of us (Psalm 68:5-6), a plan to prosper and not harm us (Jeremiah 29:11). For some, the thought that God would use family, especially their family, as an instrument of blessing may be unthinkable, even troubling. Regardless of the dysfunction, abuse, rejection or abandonment we may associate with our personal family experience, God’s Family Plan offers a strategy for redemption and recovery. Holy Spirit is inviting all of us to establish the foundation of generational blessing according to the biblical principles and perspective of God’s family plan. God's Family Plan: Establishing Generational Blessing is available in paperback on Amazon.com.

The Power of Passover or The Passover Paradigm

Some of you may have been taught that Passover is a Jewish Holiday…An Old Testament event that Christians just don’t celebrate.

Many years ago I learned “The Old is in the New contained and the New is in the Old explained. The New Testament is filled with quotes from the Old Testament and the Old Testament offers a prophetic understanding of the New Testament. For instance, If you want to understand what Jesus did for us through His death, burial and resurrection, you ought to include the Old Testament Book of Isaiah in your study…especially, Chapter 53.

Even as a young denominational preacher, Holy Spirit led me to the understanding that the Book of Exodus has much to say to instruct our faith in Jesus and our journey into Christian wholeness and maturity. But, for today, I want to focus on the events of Exodus, Chapters five through twelve. It is in these chapters that Holy Spirt has more recently led me to what I have come to know as The Passover Paradigm.

According to Merriam Webster’s Online Dictionary, a paradigm is an example or pattern…an outstandingly clear or typical example or archetype. By implication, it can be the original pattern or prototype of something.

It is in this regard that Passover was originally instituted for the benefit of Israel, God’s covenant people. But, now it serves as a template or pattern that is designed to benefit those who have come into covenant relationship with God through the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus.
