Leviticus 26:38 NLT
“You will die among the foreign nations and be devoured in the land of your enemies.”
Avoid choosing the path of disobedience
Everything has a cost, and this principle manifests itself in various forms. Sometimes, this cost is carried by another individual, much like Christ bore the burden of our salvation through His sacrifice on the cross. At other times, the cost falls squarely on the individual who initiates an action or decision. In today’s referenced scripture, the Lord communicates to the people of Israel that the repercussions of their disobedience will be their responsibility.
It is essential to emphasize that the punishments described have not yet come to fruition; however, the Lord asserts that these consequences will be enacted the moment disobedience is observed among the people. This serves as a sobering reminder of the accountability each person holds for their actions and the potential consequences they can bring about. As such, aligning with divine guidance not only brings blessings but also shields one from the inevitable toll of straying from the path of obedience.
Prayer
Heavenly Father, I come before you humbly, seeking your guidance and mercy. I pray that I may act pleasingly in my thoughts, words, and actions and not provoke your wrath through any misstep or thoughtless behaviour. Please grant me the wisdom to navigate my daily challenges with love and integrity. In Jesus’s name, I pray. Amen.
