Lev. 25, 26 [The Message]
God promised the Israelites that if they lived in obedience to His commands, they would reap blessings in their daily lives. Here are the blessings He mentioned:
- Your weather and your crops will be blessed
- You will live in peace and not war
- You will have the upper hand on your enemies
- You will enjoy prosperity and abundance
- You will experience My presence in your communities
Conversely, disobedience to God can result in a difficult life. [Pr. 13:15]
Recently I have been trying to help some indigent Newnan residents. It’s sad to see the results of life apart from Christ. It’s a hard life. Those of us who are blessed have the privilege of showing the love of Christ to those less fortunate. I hope they will want Jesus in their lives.
