Just finished up day one.
Some random thoughts on the Genesis portion. I love that I'm no longer reading Genesis (or any part of the Bible) through dispensational glasses any longer. Praise be to God. How much of His grace we miss when we don't see how covenantal Genesis is. When God came to Adam and Eve after they fell and they knew they deserved to die on the spot, but yet He came with that marvelous covenant of grace promise in Genesis 3:15. What a gracious God! And then Adam responded in faith to God's promise by calling his wife Eve, the mother of the living. Genesis 4:25 really stood out to me because it showed how God raised up a righteous seed after Abel had died in order for the fulfillment of that wonderful covenantal promise in Genesis 3:15.
Some random thoughts on the Job portion. I'm always amazed at how well Job understood God's sovereignty in the first two chapters. I also paid particular attention to how some of what Eliphaz said was really true. Job 5:7, 17-18 in particular. He may not have been saying it with the right intentions or motives, but those verses are very true.
Some random thoughts on the Matthew portion. I love Matthew 1:21 - He shall save HIS people from their sins. I used to think that was strictly a reference to Israel.
How that verse became so much more precious to my heart once I saw it was his elect he was referring to.
