KEEP OBEYING IT Leviticus 26:3-12
Devotional: -“'If you walk in My statutes and keep My commandments, and perform them” (V. 3) NKJV
Every time God wants to promise His people to perform His covenant in their life, He will always start with the word ‘if’. ‘If’ is a word of condition. That is, these promises are for those who will obey these covenant instructions. This is because; God is a covenant keeping God. In covenant, each party has their role to play. It is as you are faithfully playing your role that God can play His own role.
God promised in His word that if His people will obey His instruction, He will give rain in its season and fruits in its season. That tells you the power of obedience to the word of God. God always promise the best to those who obey Him (Isaiah 1:19). This means obedience makes us activates the power in the word of God. As powerful as the word of God is, disobedience could hinder it from working in the life of anyone (Deuteronomy 28:15).
Friend, let us ask for the grace to always obey the Lord. We cannot need this grace enough. Human being are always tempted to disobey their maker. But keep it in mind from now that you must always obey the Lord. When you have made up your mind, the grace will always be sufficient for you (Psalm 119:11). And the Lord will always work wonders in your life. Peace!
PRAYER: Lord, give me the grace to always obey your word.
“OBEDIENCE TO THE COVENANT EMPLOYS THE COVENANT POWER”
