So Moses made a bronze snake and put it up on a pole. Then when anyone was bitten by a snake and looked at the bronze snake, they lived.
DEVOTIONAL
WEEK 2 – GREEN PASTURES
DAY THIRTEEN
God’s solutions are often more simple than complicated. Jesus died for our sins and rose again. If anyone puts their trust in Jesus, they will have peace with God, eternal life, and be in God’s family forever. Salvation is received, not achieved. As the people were attacked by poisonous snakes, God told Moses to put a bronze snake on a pole. God made it clear that whoever looks up at the pole will be healed. Simple acts of obedience open the door for deep restoration.
Lift your eyes to the Maker of heaven and earth.
Lift your eyes to the risen Lord. Lift your eyes to what Moses is holding up because it’s a preview of the gospel, and God is faithful. If God said it, we believe it. God has over 7,000 promises in the Bible, and He keeps all of them perfectly. Fix your eyes on Jesus, because He is the way, the truth, and the life.
Just Choose Hope
HOPE POINT
God wants to heal through receiving, not striving.

Gracious God, thank You for Your solutions and grace. While we were yet sinners, Jesus, You died for us. We lift our eyes today to You. Our help comes from the Maker of heaven and earth. There is healing and mercy in Your name. Jesus, You are the Savior of the world, and we give You praise right now and forever, amen.
