Daily D – Deuteronomy 30:15

Deuteronomy 30:15 ”See, today I have set before you life and prosperity, death and adversity.“ (CSB)

Deuteronomy 30:19, 20 ”I call heaven and earth as witnesses against you today that I have set before you life and death, blessing and curse. Choose life so that you and your descendants may live, love the Lord your God, obey him, and remain faithful to him. For he is your life, and he will prolong your days as you live in the land the Lord swore to give to your ancestors Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.” (CSB)

Choose life and prosperity, or default to death and adversity.

Choosing life and prosperity is choosing to obey God. Obedience leads to blessings. This is directly contrary to what the serpent in the garden and the evil one in the wilderness said. It is directly contrary to most popular entertainment.

Good choices produce good results.

The good life flows from the good commands and instructions of our God. His love is packaged into bite-size nuggets of truth and life. There are no artificial flavors, colors, or ingredients to sap your strength or endanger your health. They harm neither you nor others. They build up and strengthen. They make you wise.

Obedience blesses everyone. My obedience blesses everyone. Your obedience blesses everyone. Our obedience builds a better world.

Good, long lives are the product of choosing what is good and true.

These are good, and true, reminders.

I will live in the blessings of God’s truth.

Our Father, your words of truth and life liberate us. They empower us. They strengthen us. They bless us and make us blessings. Thank you! Amen.

Daily D – Hebrews 4:15-16

Hebrews 4:15, 16 For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who has been tempted in every way as we are, yet without sin. Therefore, let us approach the throne of grace with boldness, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in time of need.

Daily D – Psalm 25:8

Psalm 25:8 The Lord is good and upright;
therefore he shows sinners the way.
He leads the humble in what is right
and teaches them his way.

Daily D – Philemon 15, 16

Philemon 15, 16 For perhaps this is why he was separated from you for a brief time, so that you might get him back permanently, no longer as a slave, but more than a slave — as a dearly loved brother. He is especially so to me, but how much more to you, both in the flesh and in the Lord.
