“You shall walk in all the ways which the LORD your God has commanded you, so that you may live and that it may be well with you, and that you may prolong your days in the land which you shall possess.” Deuteronomy 5:33
Obedience to God’s commandments — from the heart — brings life, blessing, and longevity. Disobedience, however, brings death and judgment. Because of our sinful hearts, the commandments, meant for our good, have brought the curse and condemnation of God’s law upon us. We, therefore, flee to Jesus and His cross for pardon and peace. Only in Him can we sinners find forgiveness and life everlasting!
Pardon my sin, O LORD, and cleanse my heart, that I may live for You. “Teach me Your way, O LORD; I will walk in Your truth; unite my heart to fear Your name” (Ps. 86:11). I ask this for Jesus’ sake. Amen.
