Today's Passage: Deuteronomy 25-26
So you have to admit that after reading today's passages, the laws during this time were quite detailed and at times somewhat graphic. Now that we're nearing the later chapters of Deuteronomy, one might be asking, "So what's the point." Well, we definitely know that one would not want to be known as the house who had their sandal pulled off!
Chapter 26 stuck out to me in two ways. The laws always have some reason and purpose behind them. In the last verse in this chapter, the reason is clearly stated. The Lord desires that His people become holy as He is holy. Our response is obedience to His commands and HE will make us Holy and have us stand out. I think that is amazing! God is holy and desires His children to be holy. He has not set this mark and given us no-way of following through. We must continue doing as His Word says in proper response and worship to His holiness.
Join with me in worshipping the Lord so that we might become more and more holy as He is. Finally, we know that God has declared us a treasured possession!
