Scripture:
“He will bring you to the land that belonged to your ancestors, and you will take possession of it. He will make you more prosperous and numerous than your ancestors…The LORD your God will put all these curses on your enemies who hate and persecute you…Now what I am commanding you today is not too difficult for you or beyond your reach…For I command you today to love the LORD your God, to walk in obedience to him, and to keep his commands, decrees and laws; then you will live and increase, and the LORD your God will bless you in the land you are entering to possess…This day I call the heavens and the earth as witnesses against you that I have set before you life and death, blessings and curses. Now choose life, so that you and your children may live.” Deuteronomy 30:5, 7, 11, 16, 19 (NIV) Application: There's a gold nugget is buried in that scripture. See it? To find it, don't be distracted by the dazzle of crazy wealth and trouncing haters. Avoid giving up and saying, "yeah, if I do all those 613 weird and complicated rules in Deuteronomy, I can be blessed." Now do you see the gold nugget? It's this: nothing that God asks us to do is too difficult or beyond our reach. We have to make a choice to love God, and we have to do those reasonable things He'll tell us to do. That's it. Prayer: Dear God, please don't let me be distracted. I choose to love You and do as You direct. I rest in Your promises of blessings and protection. In Jesus' name, I declare that I can do this. Amen.
