Clear distinction

Sermon notes

And there shall be a great cry throughout all the land of Egypt, such as there was none like it, nor shall be like it any more. But against any of the children of Israel shall not a dog move his tongue, against man or beast: that ye may know how that the Lord doth put a difference between the Egyptians and Israel.

Exodus 11.6, 7

And I will sever in that day the land of Goshen, in which my people dwell, that no swarms of flies shall be there; to the end thou mayest know that I am the Lord in the midst of the earth. And I will put a division between my people and thy people: to morrow shall this sign be. And the Lord did so; and there came a grievous swarm of flies into the house of Pharaoh, and into his servants' houses, and into all the land of Egypt: the land was corrupted by reason of the swarm of flies.

Exodus 8:22-24

 

And the Lord shall sever between the cattle of Israel and the cattle of Egypt: and there shall nothing die of all that is the children's of Israel.

Exodus 9:4

And Moses stretched forth his hand toward heaven; and there was a thick darkness in all the land of Egypt three days: They saw not one another, neither rose any from his place for three days: but all the children of Israel had light in their dwellings.

Exodus 10:22,23

Haste ye, and go up to my father, and say unto him, Thus saith thy son Joseph, God hath made me lord of all Egypt: come down unto me, tarry not: And thou shalt dwell in the land of Goshen, and thou shalt be near unto me, thou, and thy children, and thy children's children, and thy flocks, and thy herds, and all that thou hast:

Genesis 49:9, 10

 

Goshen = Draw near

It is living in the land that draws near to God. James said, 'Draw near to God and he will draw near unto you.(James 4:8)

Therefore thus saith the Lord God unto them; Behold, I, even I, will judge between the fat cattle and between the lean cattle. Because ye have thrust with side and with shoulder, and pushed all the diseased with your horns, till ye have scattered them abroad; Therefore will I save my flock, and they shall no more be a prey; and I will judge between cattle and cattle. And I will set up one shepherd over them, and he shall feed them, even my servant David; he shall feed them, and he shall be their shepherd. And I the Lord will be their God, and my servant David a prince among them; I the Lord have spoken it. And I will make with them a covenant of peace, and will cause the evil beasts to cease out of the land: and they shall dwell safely in the wilderness, and sleep in the woods. And I will make them and the places round about my hill a blessing; and I will cause the shower to come down in his season; there shall be showers of blessing. And the tree of the field shall yield her fruit, and the earth shall yield her increase, and they shall be safe in their land, and shall know that I am the Lord, when I have broken the bands of their yoke, and delivered them out of the hand of those that served themselves of them. And they shall no more be a prey to the heathen, neither shall the beast of the land devour them; but they shall dwell safely, and none shall make them afraid. And I will raise up for them a plant of renown, and they shall be no more consumed with hunger in the land, neither bear the shame of the heathen any more. Thus shall they know that I the Lord their God am with them, and that they, even the house of Israel, are my people, saith the Lord God. And ye my flock, the flock of my pasture, are men, and I am your God, saith the Lord God

Ezekiel 34:20-31

Goshen is living in the land of drawing near to God

God says during the calamity over Egypt there will be a clear mark of distinction between his people and the Egyptians

The difference

Darkness in Egypt, Light in Goshen

Hail in Egypt,  No hail in Goshen

Fear in Egypt, No fear in Goshen

Cries of sorrows in Egypt, Cries of deliverance in Goshen 

Destruction in Egypt, Deliverance for Israel

 

Second Distinction

The carnal believer and the Spiritual  believer

Martha and Mary - Luke 10

Conscious of covenant and Conscious of crisis

Conscious of faith and conscious of fear

Conscious of worry and conscious of the word

Praise and power people or Panicking people

 

He that is joined unto the LORD {through the Blood Covenant} is ONE with the LORD.

1 Corinthians 6.17:
 

What separates us and makes us stand out in distinction?

Covenant of blood - Exodus 12

The Word;  Luke 10 / Romans 10/ Psalm 112
