”I am the Lord” [Leviticus 26:1,2,13 & 45]
December 14
”I am the Lord”. The Lord repeatedly reminded the Israelites that He was Lord as He gave instructions for their behaviour.
Look at the prohibitions:
No idols – wood, stone or any man-made icon;
No Sabbath desecration – it is the day to rest.
Look at the long list of blessings:
Good crops and harvest; all you need to eat;
peace in the land; no threat from invasion;
victory in battle and the presence of God among His People.
No slavery to the Devil but service to the Lord.
In all this the bottom line now, as then, must be making Him Lord. Ours is the privilege to exalt Jesus to the highest place upon the throne of our heart. Where a life has this foundation today it makes all the difference.
