You will want to ensure the IP address your MX record was changed to, is able to forward your inbound mail to the Exchange server.
If it is a small firewall, you will want to make sure it forwards incoming SMTP to the internal address of your server.
Otherwise, if you have a pool of public IP addresses, you would be better assigning a static translation on your firewall of one of the pool of addresses, to the internal address of your Exchange server.
You would then want to ensure you allow SMTP through, obviously.

You said:
"I had my email host provider move my MX record of Northernpharmacy.com to point towards my firewall"
What did the original MX record point to? Is this Exchange server a new installation or one that was working OK before?
