“Do not let this Book of the Law depart from your mouth;
meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything
written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful.” — Joshua 1:8
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
We need to be reminded,
just like Joshua and the Israelites, that God gave us his Law to be a blessing
to his people.
If they would live God's
way, he promised they would be blessed.
In addition, God is the
Creator. He knows the best way for humans to live in harmony with the
principles of his universe.
His Law was not intended
to hinder or interfere with the happiness and experience of his people.
Instead, it was to help
them prosper and find success in life.
As Paul repeatedly
reminds us in Galatians, we are no longer under Law.
Bottom line: Following
God's will and living his character is a blessing to us!
My Prayer...
Loving Father, thank you for speaking your
will in human words so I can better know how to live for you. I know obeying
your will blesses me and those around me.
Empower me with your Spirit so that your
character and grace will be fully realized in my life and my example.
In Jesus' name I pray.
Amen.
