2011 Family Bible Study

Day 15 and 16

Remember to ask the Lord to guide you in this study

Day 15

What is the Bible trying to tell us when it says, God is a jealous God?

God makes it very clear in these next verses.

Do not worship any other god, for the Lord, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God. ~ Exodus 34:14

Part of the Ten Commandments

God spoke all these words.

“I am the LORD your God, who brought you out Egypt, out of the land of slavery.

You shall have no gods before me.

You shall not make for yourself an idol in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below. You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the fathers to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me, but showing love to a thousand generations of those who love me and keep my commandments. ~ Exodus 20:1-6

For the LORD your God is a consuming fire, a jealous God. ~ Deuteronomy 4:24

Day 16

How do I know that God will keep his word?

He is the Rock, his works are perfect, and all his ways are just. A faithful God who does no wrong, upright and just is he. ~ Deuteronomy 32:4

For the word of the LORD is right and true; he is faithful in all he does. ~ Psalm 33:4

Blessed is he whose help is the God of Jacob, whose hope is in the LORD his God, the Maker of heaven and earth, the sea, and everything in them - the LORD, who remains faithful forever. ~ Psalm 146:5-6
