Leviticus 26:10 NLT
“You will have such a surplus of crops that you will need to clear out the old grain to make room for the new harvest!”
Overwhelming blessings
Walking according to God’s instructions is not merely a duty; it is a profoundly rewarding journey that promises blessings beyond the limits of human understanding. To the people of Israel, the Lord made a remarkable promise: each individual would experience an abundance of crops so abundant that they would need to clear out the old grains from their storage facilities to make room for the new harvest.
Before we delve deeper into the concept of this surplus, it is essential to consider the role of the old grains. In this divine proclamation, God assures the Israelites that they will never find themselves in a state of want or lack. The reason for this perpetual provision lies in the presence of the old grains—these remnants of past harvests serve as a testament to God’s faithfulness, ensuring that even as they reap new blessings, they will not run short.
Intriguingly, this miraculous yield is not contingent upon human efforts, such as applying fertilizers or advanced agricultural techniques. Instead, the secret to this bountiful harvest lies in allowing God’s words to infuse and guide their lives. The scripture conveys a vital truth: when we heed divine instructions, our focus shifts from merely seeking blessings to understanding how we can effectively manage and steward the multitude of blessings that flow into our lives.
Therefore, my friends, it is crucial to realize that the incredible harvest you long for will manifest only if you allow God’s instructions to serve as your guiding compass. Embrace this divine guidance, and you will find yourself overwhelmed by the blessings that follow.
Prayer
Heavenly Father, I recognize that Your plans for my life are vast and often beyond my understanding, yet I trust in their reality and purpose. I pray that I will consciously guard against adopting an “I don’t care” attitude, which could lead me to neglect or postpone following Your life-giving instructions. Help me remain attentive and open to Your guidance so I may fully embrace the path You have laid out for me, even when it challenges my limited perspective. Let my heart be receptive, and my spirit is willing, so I might walk in alignment with Your divine will. In Jesus’s name, I pray, Amen.
