You shall not make for yourself a carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. Exodus 20:4
D.L. MOODYI would a great deal sooner have five minutes’ communion with Christ than spend years bowing before pictures and images of Him. Whatever comes between my soul and my Maker is not a help to me, but a hindrance. God has given different means of grace by which we can approach Him. Let us use these, and not seek for other …

And take in your hand this staff, with which you shall do the signs. Exodus 4:17
D.L. MOODYWhen God Almighty linked Himself to that rod, it was worth more than all the armies the world had ever seen. Look and see how that rod did this work. It brought up the plagues of flies and the thunderstorm and turned the water into blood. It was not Moses, however, nor Moses’ rod that did the work, but it was the God of the rod, the God of Moses. As long as God was with him, he could not fail.

Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long in the land that the LORD your God is giving you. Exodus 20:12
D.L. MOODYThe one glimpse the Bible gives us of thirty out of the thirty-three years of Christ’s life on Earth shows that He did not come to destroy the Fifth Commandment. The secret of all those silent years is embodied in that verse in Luke’s Gospel—“And he went down with them, and came to Nazareth, and was subject unto them” (Luke 2:51). Did He not set an example of true filial love and care …

I can do all things through him who strengthens me. Philippians 4:13
D.L. MOODYTake Christ for your strength, dear soul. He’ll give you power. Power to overcome the world, the flesh, and the devil; power to crucify every besetting sin, passion, lust; power to shout in triumph over every trouble and temptation of your life, “I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.”
ERWIN LUTZERChrist’s strength is sufficient; we can move forward in the worst of circumstances; Paul lived a life deprived of the comforts he was used to, but he was content. As Christ strengthens …

For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world and forfeit his soul? Mark 8:36
D.L. MOODYO that we would wake up to the thought of what it is to be lost! The world has been rocked to sleep by Satan who is going up and down telling people it doesn’t mean anything. I believe in the old-fashioned heaven and hell. Christ came down to save us from a terrible hell, and any man who is cast down to hell from here must go in the full blaze of the gospel and over the mangled body …

Moreover, look for able men from all the people, men who fear God, who are trustworthy and hate a bribe, and place such men over the people as chiefs of thousands, of hundreds, of fifties, and of tens. Exodus 18:21
D.L. MOODYIsn’t it extraordinary that Jethro, the man of the desert, should have given this advice to Moses? How did he learn to beware of covetousness? We honor men today if they are wealthy and covetous. We elect them to office in church and state. We often say they will make better treasurers because we know them to be …

Pastor Lutzer points out two groups in whom God’s holiness is displayed: the wicked and the righteous. God has made a way to approach Him in His moral perfection. This episode was originally published January 8, 2019 as "The Attributes of God | Week 1: Holy."
“Who is like you, O Lord, among the gods? Who is like you, majestic in holiness, awesome in glorious deeds, doing wonders?"- Exodus 15:11
