Deuteronomy 28:3

God doesn’t give us commands to feed His ego or to make us suffer. He loves us beyond measure and wants us to have the very best life. An abundant life that His Son sacrificed His life to give us. But the Lord will only bless us if we walk in faithful obedience to Him. And when we do, God promises those blessings will follow us no matter where we roam, or where we settle. Because God isn’t limited to specific areas or situations. His goodness and provision are available to us whenever and wherever we are, as long as we remain faithful to Him. In our obedience, we show our trust God’s wisdom and sovereignty over our lives. A trust which in turn leads to God’s very best blessings. Blessings including material prosperity, physical health, and spiritual growth.

Deuteronomy 7:9

Why does Moses call God “the faithful God”? To be faithful is to to be steadfast, enduring, dependable, loyal, and trustworthy. Attributes God demonstrates perfectly. Despite their rebellion and unbelief, God stayed faithful to Israel. Remembering His promises to their forefathers, the Lord kept His covenant with His people, and remained steadfast in His love for them. Everywhere I look I see the faithfulness of God. I see it in the needs He so generously meets. In the family and friends He blesses my life with. In the mercy and grace He patiently shows each day, and most of all in His never ending love. Such abundant devotion that He gives not because I love Him, but because He loves me. A faithfulness that turns my brokenness into healing, condemnation into redemption, bitterness into love, bondage into freedom, sin into righteousness, and my death into eternal life.

John 14:15

Although we no longer live under the Law, Jesus still calls us to keep His commandments. What are His commandments? The Lord asks that we believe, ask, obey, abide, and most all, love. Believe in Him as we do the Father. Ask for all things in His glorious name. Obey the Word of God. Abide in the Holy Spirit. And most of all, love like Jesus. The last the greatest, for Christ gave it at His last meal before His Crucifixion. Jesus said, “A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another, even as I have loved you.” (John 13:34) By abiding in Jesus and keeping His love commandment, we in turn demonstrate our love for Him, and show the world that we belong to the Lord.
