Fri.’s Devo - The Blessings and the Curses

Read: Deut. 28-29
Yesterday we read how six of the tribes were to stand on mount Gerizim and bless the people and six of the tribes were to stand on mount Ebal and read the curses. Today we get the blessings and the curses. Hopefully as individuals we are living in the curses. Sadly, as a nation we are living in the curses. To live in the blessings all we have to do is walk in obedience to what God tells us to do. Jesus said that his yoke was not grievous but light yet we try to make it so hard and fight against the very one who is trying to make things easy and good for us. God is still looking for a people who will want to be called by His name that He can bless and work through.
I love the last verse: “The secret things belong to the Lord our God; But those things which are revealed belong unto us and to our children for ever, that we may do all the words of this law.” Lord, let us be the people that You can reveal your secrets to and give eyes to see into the mysteries of Your word.
