What does it say?
A year after God dramatically delivered Israel from slavery in Egypt, Israel celebrated with the Passover--an annual feast of remembrance of how God delivered them.
What does it mean?
God instituted a ceremony to remind His people of the most important day in their history: the day He rescued them from the hand of their cruel masters and harsh conditions in Egypt. A year had gone by since then, so God instructed Moses to have the people celebrate the Passover. They would continue to do this every year throughout their history according to God’s plan. Even the foreigners who were visiting in Israel were invited to celebrate as long as they purified themselves and followed the rules of the ceremony.
How should I respond?
Annual holidays exist in most every culture to remember important things in their history. Some celebrate their national independence or the end of a war. Individually, we may celebrate birthdays or remember loved ones on the anniversary of the day they died. On what special date did God do something profound in your life? Do you remember a time when He delivered you from a difficult situation? Mark that date on your calendar, and plan to remember it every year. Perhaps there is something right now you need His deliverance from. Begin to pray specifically and look for ways that He may be working in your favor. God is the great Deliverer!

In the book of Numbers, God demonstrates himself as a pillar of fire and a pillar of smoke, faithfully leading his often rebellious people through the wilderness. Although the faithless wilderness generation was barred from entering the promised land, God was raising up a generation to lead the people from their wandering into the conquest of the land of Canaan.
