Here’s a heavy weekend reading for us to ponder.
God ‘s promises to His people were often presented as “if-then” statements, meaning that they were conditional. God promised Israel blessings for obedience and curses for disobedience.
There are lessons for EVERY nation that respects the Bible.
“Now if you faithfully obey the Lord your Godand are careful to follow all his commands I am giving you today, the Lord your God will put you far above all the nations of the earth. All these blessings will come and overtake you, because you obey the Lord your God:
You will be blessed in the city
and blessed in the country.
Your offspring will be blessed,
and your land’s produce,
and the offspring of your livestock,
including the young of your herds
and the newborn of your flocks.
Your basket and kneading bowl will be blessed.
You will be blessed when you come in
and blessed when you go out. The Lord will cause the enemies who rise up against you to be defeated before you. They will march out against you from one direction but flee from you in seven directions. The Lord will grant you a blessing on your barns and on everything you do; he will bless you in the land the Lord your God is giving you.”
Deuteronomy 28: 1-9 (CSB).
It is worthwhile for every Believer to read the entire chapter. I believe it speaks to what we have experienced in America.

This is so beautiful and powerfully encouraging. We are NEVER too old to be God’s children.
“Consider how much love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God. Therefore the world does not know us, because it did not know Him. Beloved, now are we children of God, and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be. But we know that when He appears, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is. Everyone who has this hope in Him purifies himself, just as He is pure.” 1 John 3: 1-3 (MEV). #God #elderlycare #Jesus #Christian
Here’s a great word for today and everyday.
“Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good. His love endures forever.
Give thanks to the God of gods. His love endures forever.
Give thanks to the Lord of lords: His love endures forever.
to him who alone does great wonders, His love endures forever.
who by his understanding made the heavens, His love endures forever.
who spread out the earth upon the waters, His love endures forever.
who made the great lights— His love endures forever.
the sun to govern the day, His love endures forever.
the moon and stars to govern the night;
His love endures forever.”
Psalm 136: 1-9 (NIV). “
