Disobedience & Blessings Today
Today is Day 17 of 90 in our reading plan to dig in and read the Bible from cover to cover in 90 days. If you’re reading along with me then you opened up your Bible this morning and read Deuteronomy 1-9.
Geeze, y’all!
I mean, come on! Don’t you just see? I mean, just . . . .just look!
He loves us so deeply.
It’s our destinies to be united with Him.
Deuteronomy (repetition of the law): God has been so faithful through all of this. . . no matter what His selfish children have done. He loves us.
Today we’re going to be talking about disobedience and blessings!
So we start right off with the Lord having His people leave Horeb then leaders are appointed in their tribe. Spies got sent out from Kadesh. Oh, yeah. . . something super sad happens. . . . . .!
Because of his disobedience, Moses isn’t going to cross the Jordan to the Promised Land. Is your heart breaking thinking about this? This guy was there from jump street of Exodus; from Pharaoh and had led the nation of Israel, and yet now because of his disobedience at Meribah, he’s not going to see the Exodus through to completion.
“Now, Israel, hear the decrees and laws I am about to teach you. Follow them so that you may live and may go in and take possession of the land the Lord, the God of your ancestors, is giving you. 2 Do not add to what I command you and do not subtract from it, but keep the commands of the Lord your God that I give you.” Deuteronomy 4:2
I can’t imagine being at that place in his life and having to look over at the land, to not be able to cross over and be there. The disobedience led to something truly heartbreaking.
On an unrelated note, I wanted to mention this blessing today. When I got on a few minutes ago to write this I noticed that I had written my 100th blog post today and I thought that was so exciting! It really was great, it was such a big thing to me! What just had me crying (good tears) was that the blog was over prayers and pineapples. This was a completely unintentional thing and I didn’t even know it was my 100th blog until just a few minutes ago. Yes! Imagine that? I’d written a post about my daughter eating the pineapples that she had earlier today, the pineapple at feeding therapy, so it was just such a blessing to me that it would be the 100th post and so fitting; being the name of my actual blog. That’s not a coincidence. The Lord is so abundantly faithful and He blesses us in ways that we couldn’t comprehend. I’m so thankful tonight.
