Monday's Devo - "On the 3rd Day"

Read 2 Sam 1:1-2
Have you ever noticed how many "on the 3rd day"s there are? Around 40. So here is the condensed version:
ON THE THIRD DAY:
Moses saw the place he was to meet God from afar off
Laban found out that Jacob had fled
Simeon and Levi slew all the circumcised enemies
God appeared on the mountain with the sound of the trumpet, and thunder and lightning
The remainder of the flesh of the sacrifice is burnt with fire
The children of Zebulun offered their sacrifice
The unclean person shall purify himself and his captives
The clean shall sprinkle upon the unclean
The children of Israel came to their cities
The children of Israel went up against the children of Benjamin
David and his men found the south and Ziklag invaded by the Amelekites and burned with fire.
A man came out of the camp of Saul with his clothes rent and earth upon his head.
The Lord will wipe away your tears and heal you; and you, Hezekiah, will go up to the house of the Lord.
The people came to see the king
The temple was finished
Esther put on her royal robe and stood in the inner court of the king's house
The Jews were given a decree that they could kill their enemies.
Jesus and Lazarus were raised from the dead.
Jesus will be perfected.
There was a marriage
The disciples cast out with their own hands the furniture of ship because of the storm.
What a perfect description of what Jesus did when he rose from the dead. . Jesus went to hell, the enemies' camp and set captives free (not without a battle); sin no longer had power over us; the veil was rent that we may appear before God ourselves; healing, deliverance, miracles were put in our hands to do; the kingdom had come!!! Moses only saw this from afar, but we get to live in it!
Lord, may we appropriate everything that was done on the 3rd day for your glory!
