The Lord’s Passover begins at
sundown on the fourteenth day of the
first month. The next day, the fifteenth
day of the month, you must begin
celebrating the Festival of Unleavened
Bread. Then the Lord said to Moses,
“Give the following instructions to the
people of Israel. When you enter the
land I am giving you and you harvest its
first crops, bring the priest... (cont’d)
Leviticus 23:4-6, 9-14 (NLT)
...a bundle of grain from the first cutting
of your grain harvest. On the day after
the Sabbath, the priest will lift it up
before the Lord so it may be accepted
on your behalf. On that same day you
must sacrifice a one-year-old male lamb
with no defects as a burnt offering to
the Lord. With it you must present a
grain offering consisting of four quarts
of choice flour moistened... (cont’d)
Leviticus 23:4-6, 9-14 (NLT)
...with olive oil. It will be a special gift,
a pleasing aroma to the Lord. You must
also offer one quart of wine as a liquid
offering. Do not eat bread or roasted
grain or fresh kernels on that day until
you bring this offering to your God.
This is a permanent law for you, and
it must be observed from generation
to generation wherever you live.
Leviticus 23:4-6, 9-14 (NLT)
Go to the priest in charge at that
time and say to him, ‘With this gift I
acknowledge to the Lord your God
that I have entered the land he swore
to our ancestors he would give us.’
Deuteronomy 26:3 (NLT)
T he F east of
F irstfruits is
about giving
G od the first of
what we have
All the firstborn males are mine.
On the day I struck down all the
firstborn sons of the Egyptians, I set
apart for myself all the firstborn in
Israel, both of people and of animals.
They are mine; I am the Lord.”
Numbers 3:13 (NLT)
Redeem them when they are
one month old. The redemption
price is five pieces of silver
Numbers 18:16 (NLT)
His parents took him to Jerusalem
to present him to the Lord. The law of
the Lord says, “If a woman’s first child
is a boy, he must be dedicated to the
Lord.” So they offered the sacrifice
required in the law of the Lord.
Luke 2:22-23 (NLT)
He is the beginning and the
firstborn from among the dead,
so that in everything he
might have the supremacy.
Colossians 1:18 (NIV)
Jesus Christ, who is the faithful
witness, the firstborn from
the dead, and the ruler of the
kings of the earth...
Revelation 1:5 (NIV)
J esus was the first
to rise
from the dead
Christ has indeed been raised from
the dead, the firstfruits of those who
have fallen asleep. For since death
came through a man, the resurrection
of the dead comes also through a man.
For as in Adam all die, so in Christ
all will be made alive. But each in turn:
Christ, the firstfruits; then, when he
comes, those who belong to him.
1 Corinthians 15:20-23 (NIV)
H is resurrection
guarantees ours
A time is coming when all who are
in their graves will hear his voice
and come out—those who have
done what is good will rise to live,
and those who have done what is
evil will rise to be condemned.
John 5:28-29 (NIV)
W e can face death
with that hope!
Brothers and sisters, we do not want
you to be uninformed about those
who sleep in death, so that you do not
grieve like the rest of mankind, who
have no hope. For we believe that
Jesus died and rose again, and so we
believe that God will bring with Jesus
those who have fallen asleep in him.
According to the Lord’s... (cont’d)
1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 (NIV)
...word, we tell you that we who are
still alive, who are left until the coming
of the Lord, will certainly not precede
those who have fallen asleep. For the
Lord himself will come down from
heaven, with a loud command, with the
voice of the archangel and with the
trumpet call of God, and the dead in
Christ will rise first. (cont’d)
1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 (NIV)
After that, we who are still alive and
are left will be caught up together with
them in the clouds to meet the Lord
in the air. And so we will be with the
Lord forever. Therefore encourage
one another with these words.
1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 (NIV)
What can you do to show
your gratitude?
What can you do to show
your gratitude?
G ive him your
firstfruits
Trust in the Lord with all your heart
and lean not on your own
understanding; in all your ways submit
to him, and he will make your paths
straight. Do not be wise in your own
eyes; fear the Lord and shun evil.
This will bring health to... (cont’d)
Proverbs 3:5-10 (NIV)
...your body and nourishment to your
bones. Honor the Lord with your
wealth, with the firstfruits of all your
crops; then your barns will be filled to
overflowing, and your vats will brim
over with new wine.
Proverbs 3:5-10 (NIV)
Thankful that Jesus is the firstfruit
of my resurrection someday...
Thankful that Jesus is the firstfruit
of my resurrection someday...
-- I am committing today to
give God the firstfruits of my
time, talent and treasure
Thankful that Jesus is the firstfruit
of my resurrection someday...
-- I am committing today to
give God the firstfruits of my
time, talent and treasure
-- I want to give God my firstfruits.
Help me, God, to trust you.
