Devotion 1 of 2: Col 2

1) We don’t worship on Saturdays because of v.16-17: “So let no one judge you in food or in drink, or regarding a festival or a new moon or sabbaths, 17 which are a shadow of things to come, but the substance is of Christ.” So we don’t judge whether someone worships on Saturday or not! The Sabbath was a shadow of salvation by grace, not by works (Eph 2:8-9); of entering into the Promised Land of Rest and Revival in the Last Days (Heb 3-4); and of living in the Millennium, the 7th 1000-year-day of history (2 Pet 3:8)!
2) By repenting of sin and receiving Christ! That’s when Jesus circumcised us by removing our sins of the flesh (v.11). This is symbolized by our water baptism (v.12). A dramatic picture of the removing of the sins of our flesh is God cutting of and drowning Pharaoh’s army at the Red Sea crossing, which also symbolizes our water baptism (1 Cor 10:1-2)!

Devotion 2 of 2: Nah 1

After many verses of condemnation against Nineveh for her evil, the chapter ends in v.15 with 4 keys to achieving victory over Nineveh, or the AC of the last days. They are: 1) Having feet to take the good news to the world, 2) Being Judah, the tribe of praise, 3) Keeping our appointed feasts of the Day of Atonement and Tabernacles, and 4) Performing our vows! Let’s remember these keys and defeat AC to bring revival to the world!
