Topic : Live To Appreciate God.

Memory Verse :
‭‭Deuteronomy 8:11. Be careful that you do not forget the Lord your God, failing to observe his commands, his laws and his decrees that I am giving you this day.

Bible Reading : ‭Deuteronomy 8:12-14 NIV‬. Key Verse: v13.

Otherwise, when you eat and are satisfied, when you build fine houses and settle down, and when your herds and flocks grow large and your silver and gold increase and all you have is multiplied, then your heart will become proud and you will forget the Lord your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery.

The worst thing that can happen to any man or people is for such to forget where he was or they were when God picked him or them up. From the beginning God has been so caring and faithful to any generation that walked with him. That is the reason he always stands by us a faithful father in being there for us anytime we have needs just like the Israelites in the wilderness. God manifested some awesome dimensions of himself while he led Israel out of Egypt, a place of slavery and bondage into a land of liberty and abundant blessing and provisions. ‭‭ “He led you through the vast and dreadful wilderness, that thirsty and waterless land, with its venomous snakes and scorpions. He brought you water out of hard rock. He gave you manna to eat in the wilderness, something your ancestors had never known, to humble and test you so that in the end it might go well with you.” Deuteronomy 8:15-16.

In return for his love and kindness, God does not ask us for too much. All he demands from us is a heart of gratitude. Such gratitude is always manifested through lifestyles that honour and appreciate him through unfettered worship and unwavering obedience to his commands which are not grievous. In obedience, we reciprocate God’s love and display our unwavering trust in him as our source or everything. Such acts of obedience is key to sustained favour before the Lord. ‭‭”Be careful to follow every command I am giving you today, so that you may live and increase and may enter and possess the land the Lord promised on oath to your ancestors. Remember how the Lord your God led you all the way in the wilderness these forty years, to humble and test you in order to know what was in your heart, whether or not you would keep his commands.”
Deuteronomy 8:1-2.

Today, if you can take stock of God’s goodness in your life? You see his faithfulness in everything and situations. If you are careful, you will observe that God is always there for us when need arises. God’s provisions and interventions are always tailor made to meet the needs if his people per time. Sometimes we may be tempted to think that God’s care for us today diminished because we are not in a physical hot and dry place like the Israelites and water came out of some rocks for us or that we are not gathering manna just like men of old. Truth is that based on our circumstances and present environments and situations, God had displayed more than enough faithfulness in his love, care and provisions, even in challenging times, that the reason we have not suffered shame. ‭‭”But now, this is what the Lord says— he who created you, Jacob, he who formed you, Israel: “Do not fear, for I have redeemed you; I have summoned you by name; you are mine. When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze. For I am the Lord your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior; I give Egypt for your ransom, Cush and Seba in your stead.” Isaiah 43:1-3.

Prayer :Thank you Father God for being there for me always. Thank you for every battle you have fought on my behalf. Thank you for every grace, mercy and victory that I have enjoyed from you. Help me to live to appreciate all you are doing in my life daily. Thank you because you are going to do greater things in Jesus wonderful name…. Amen 🙏🏿.
