Although we are not bound to the law of Moses, we gain insight into the culture God was trying to create when we read it. Significant was God’s promise that the land would favor Godly living whereas it would be resistant to transgressors. It’s as if all creation is preset to harmonize with those who live in tune with God’s Spirit.

The writer of Romans saw this when he declared, “… the whole creation has been groaning together in the pains of childbirth until now.” [Rom. 8:22]

DAILY PRAYER: Lord, we love You and want to live according to Your ways. As we go about our day, keep speaking Your words of direction to us that we may blend in harmony with Your eternal purposes.
