Deuteronomy 11:16-28 ESV “Be careful, or you will be fooled and will turn away to serve and worship other gods. If you do, the Lord will become angry with you and will shut the heavens and it will not rain. Then the land will not grow crops, and you will soon die in the good land the Lord is giving you. Remember my words with your whole being. Write them down and tie them to your hands as a sign; tie them on your foreheads to remind you. Teach them well to your children, talking about them when you sit at home and walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up. Write them on your doors and gates so that you and your children will live a long time in the land the Lord promised your ancestors, as long as the skies are above the earth.
If you are careful to obey every command I am giving you to follow, and love the Lord your God, and do what he has told you to do, and are loyal to him, then the Lord will force all those nations out of the land ahead of you, and you will take the land from nations that are bigger and stronger than you. Everywhere you step will be yours. Your land will go from the desert to Lebanon and from the Euphrates River to the Mediterranean Sea. No one will be able to stop you. The Lord your God will do what he promised and will make the people afraid everywhere you go.
See, today I am letting you choose a blessing or a curse. You will be blessed if you obey the commands of the Lord your God that I am giving you today. But you will be cursed if you disobey the commands of the Lord your God. So do not disobey the commands I am giving you today, and do not worship other gods you do not know.”
I know this is a lot of scripture and is written in times of old but the words fit in our society today as well. We need to know the word of God and his ways. We are in the end times and his word tells us many will come in my name be aware so as not to be deceived (Matthew 24:5) we need to know Him, we need to know what he has to say, teach them to our children, grandchildren, loved ones…lest we be fooled!!!
Follow and Love the Lord your God, do as his word instructs, you will then take from those bigger then you. Simply meaning, He will fight your battles, no one will be able to take from you, keep from you or stop you.
Everyday the Lord gives us the choice; blessed or cursed! The choice is ours. We and only we can decide whether we choose to do what is right or live as we wish and worry about the consequences later. In the days and times to come we need to be aware and ready.
1 Peter 5:8 ESV “Be sober-minded; be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour.”
Our times are unsteady, people are afraid, dazed and confused, lost, and lied to. There is an agenda being spread and many changes becoming our new culture that don’t align with Gods word …We need to know the truth and do our best to share the truth!
Be blessed today, try and be a blessing and as always Thank you for joining me. 🥰
