A Victorious Life to remember

It was at night, and the mighty Egyptians lost all their first born(Exodus12:29-30), the ones that were speaking lowly to the Israelites had their thoughts turn to good(Exodus12:36). He led them out of Egypt with a command of a feast of the unleavened bread(Exodus12:17), and set them free. He led them all the way, the best way, though it was not the shortest(Exodus13:17,21). After which the Egyptians became stubborn again, in realization of losing all their slaves, chased them. But still the people of Israel were moving on victoriously(Exodus14:8). Across the red sea with full protection did the LORD lead them and to the death of the Egyptians who tried to chase them, Victory, Victory, Victory!(Exodus13-31).


Though above is a very much summarized version of the night the LORD set free His people from Egypt, it is good to notice, that the LORD was always with them, it's also good to see that Victory was all by the LORD's hand and not by any one else, and by taking the feast they were proclaiming the LORD's victory that was given to them through this grand escape, yes what a victorious life to remember, to think about, to hear generation after generation, to realize, to behold, and to all these the Israelites will always remember...

So what does this have to do with us Christians you may ask?

Well let me bring you to what and where we are at now, we might have persecutions, long or short, doesn't matter, that chase us all the way, but never caught us, but the danger is always there:

^"35 Who shall ever separate us from Christ’s love? Shall suffering and affliction and tribulation? Or calamity and distress? Or persecution or hunger or destitution or peril or sword?

³⁶ Even as it is written, For Thy sake we are put to death all the day long; we are regarded and counted as sheep for the slaughter.

³⁷ Yet amid all these things we are more than conquerors and gain a surpassing victory through Him Who loved us." -Romans 8:35-37

Yea, that's right, we're always in danger, but none of this will separate us from the love of Christ, more over we can walk on victoriously as did the Israelites. Now how should we proclaim his victory? 

"²⁴ And when He had given thanks, He broke [it] and said, Take, eat. This is My body, which is broken for you. Do this to call Me [affectionately] to remembrance.

²⁵ Similarly when supper was ended, He took the cup also, saying, This cup is the new covenant [ratified and established] in My blood. Do this, as often as you drink [it], to call Me [affectionately] to remembrance.

²⁶ For every time you eat this bread and drink this cup, you are representing and signifying and proclaiming the fact of the Lord’s death until He comes [again]." -1 Corinthians 11:24-26

Now don't get me wrong, this is not a law, but a celebration. to Proclaim his death on the cross, to proclaim the new covenant we have, to proclaim the victory He has accomplished on the cross, for this is our God, Compassionate and loving, never failing to care for those who love Him, calling out loud to the lost, and continuously searching. Our God is truly great, let's praise Him for Christ's death is truly a Victory to remember :)
