#god's command

[thepictorialist]

"When a foreigner resides among you in your land, do not mistreat them. The foreigner residing among you must be treated as your native-born. Love them as yourself, for you were foreigners in Egypt. I am the Lord your God." ~Leviticus 19:33-34

Tyndale Life Application Daily Devotion

Devotional for December 7

By faith we understand that the entire universe was formed at God's command, that what we now see did not come from anything that can be seen. - Hebrews 11:3

Insight

God called the universe into existence out of nothing; he declared that it was to be, and it was. Our faith is in the God who created the entire universe by his word. God's word has awesome power.

Challenge

When he speaks, do you listen and respond? How can you better prepare yourself to respond to God's word?

Warning Against Adultery

20 My son, keep your father’s command

   and do not forsake your mother’s teaching.

21 Bind them always on your heart;

   fasten them around your neck.

22 When you walk, they will guide you;

   when you sleep, they will watch over you;

   when you awake, they will speak to you.

23 For this command is a lamp,

   this teaching is a light,

and correction and instruction

   are the way to life,

24 keeping you from your neighbor’s wife,

   from the smooth talk of a wayward woman.

25 Do not lust in your heart after her beauty

   or let her captivate you with her eyes.

26 For a prostitute can be had for a loaf of bread,

   but another man’s wife preys on your very life.

27 Can a man scoop fire into his lap

   without his clothes being burned?

28 Can a man walk on hot coals

   without his feet being scorched?

29 So is he who sleeps with another man’s wife;

   no one who touches her will go unpunished.

Freely received, yours to enjoy, or not, may God give as much to you. D W Eldred

Learn to do right; seek justice.    Defend the oppressed. Take up the cause of the fatherless;    plead the case of the widow.
