The Lord told Moses, “Quick! Go down the mountain! Your people whom you brought from the land of Egypt have corrupted themselves. 

How quickly they have turned away from the way I commanded them to live! 

Moses saw that Aaron had let the people get completely out of control, much to the amusement of their enemies.

“Today you have ordained yourselves32:29 As in Greek and Latin versions; Hebrew reads Today ordain yourselves. for the service of the Lord, for you obeyed him even though it meant killing your own sons and brothers. Today you have earned a blessing.”

The Lord replied, “I will personally go with you, Moses, and I will give you rest—everything will be fine for you.”

Lord God my Father,

Bring your peace over me and quiet my thoughts. Protect my mind from Satan’s desire to deceive. Allow your Truth to be the only focus I seek and keep me from false worship. When I stray, make me aware and restore me. Be with me in obvious ways today.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen
