This foundational truth calls for reverence and obedience. Deliverance as a Foundation for Obedience Understand that God's deliverance from Egypt is the basis for the Israelites' obedience. Similarly, our spiritual deliverance through Christ calls us to live in obedience to Him. Remembering Past Deliverance Reflect on how God has delivered you from past struggles or sins. This remembrance should inspire gratitude and faithfulness in your walk with God. Freedom from Slavery Consider the spiritual implications of being freed from the "house of slavery." Just as the Israelites were freed from physical bondage, believers are freed from the bondage of sin through Christ. Covenant Relationship Embrace the personal relationship God offers. He is not a distant deity but a personal God who desires a covenant relationship with His people.(6) I am the Lord thy God.--It should never be forgotten that this sentence is an integral part of the Decalogue, and also the first part.
