"This is how you are to eat it: with your cloak tucked into your belt, your sandals on your feet and your staff in your hand. Eat it in haste; it is the Lord ’s Passover."
Exodus 12:11 NIV
In the verses before this, God was about to set the Israelites free from slavery.
God wanted them to dress as though they were about to leave even though they were not yet free to do so. Them being prepared to leave was a sign of their faith and trust in God. We need to prepare our selves when we are waiting on God.
Living in preparation shows our faith during our waiting period but it will also build up our trust in God.
Father, Thank you so very much for being faithful to your people. Thank you for giving us the stores of the past as tangible examples for us to live by. Lord please help us to live in preparation of your return. Help us to build our trust in you by living accordingly to your promises. Thank you Lord Jesus for loving us unconditionally. In your name I pray. Amen
