Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength Deu 6:5
Reading:
Deu 6:1-10
Story: Just before Israelites entered Canaan, Lord asked Moses to give them instructions. Let’s us look at couple of it.
1 – Be careful to follow every command I am giving you today, so that you may live and increase and may enter and possess the land the Lord promised
2 – Do what is right and good in the Lord’s sight, so that it may go well with you and you may go in and take over the good land the Lord promised and revering him.
Lesson: The Lord has promised goodness, but the key to possess is by obeying the word of God. Our prosperity has a relation to our holy living. Always remember, our Lord is looking at us to see that we are living a victorious life.
We should never take sin lightly, holy life should be the result of our love for God. When we continue to sin, it shows lack of reverence, lack of fear of God, and we do not really understand the depth of God’s love. Lord has given commandments so we can live our life fullness.
Prayer: Father Lord, teach me the power of obedience and anoint me to walk in truth and obey the word of God. Amen.
