Welcome to Saturday, 28 March, 2020 blog site as we consider what we have read these past few days in our One Year bible. Hopefully you are current in your daily reading. We read yesterday at Proverbs 12:1 "Whoso loveth instruction loveth knowledge: but he that hateth reproof is brutish." How does this apply and describe you? We can hide from people but we cannot hide from Almighty God who is the Judge and final authority. 

Deuteronomy chapter 6-10 is a great place for all of us to read, read agin, stop, meditate and then consider what we are doing with what we have. If we admit everything we have is a gift from God  then we are faced with the stewardship and accountability of all of our being. 

Israel had been blessed by God when they were in Egypt. They were blessed when they left Egypt and entered the wilderness going toward the mountain of God. They were blessed for 40 years as they wandered in disobedience. All the men that crossed the Red Sea who were 20 years old and were men of war died in unbelief and disobedience except 2, Joshua and Caleb. Now they are at the entrance of the promise land and Moses restates the Law for Israel.

Read Deuteronomy 6:4- and apply this same restriction and application for yourself today. Israel had a choice to make as you do today. Note 7:11 and determine your obedience. Read also chapter 8:1- and see if this is your lifestyle. Review chapter 9 to better understand God's longsuffering mercy towards these stiffnecked people and be thankful for how He has dealt with you. Chapter 10:12-14 declares what God required of Israel and as a child of God He expects that of you and me. Prepare to meet thy God.

Luke records several of the parabels that Jesus used to teach his followers about how to serve others and obey God. Luke 8:4- is the parabel concerning the sower and the seed withh the four different results. The key to understanding the results rest in verse 15, which is a honest and good heart that is receptive to the word sown. You can evaluate your own "soil" condition as which of the four different ones you are, either way side, rock, among thorns or good ground.

Asa you reas Psalm 69:1-36 start out with the confessing of sins, request for cleansing and the understanding of God's Truths in the Psalm. Note verse 13-18 as an example of contrition and believing God hears and knows your need. Verse 30-36 can be shouted as victory in Jesus, for if we ask The Father any thing in Jesus' name, He will hear and do. 

A GOOD MAN OBTAINETH FAVOR OF THE LORD.
