“For this commandment which I am commanding you today is not too difficult for you, nor is it far away. It is not in heaven, that you could say, ‘Who will go up to heaven for us and get it for us, and proclaim it to us, so that we may follow it?’ Nor is it beyond the sea, that you could say, ‘Who will cross the sea for us and get it for us and proclaim it to us, so that we may follow it?’ On the contrary, the word is very near you, in your mouth and in your heart, that you may follow it. Choose life. Deuteronomy 30:11-14 NASB2020

One of my favorite passages: Not something I have to hunt or wish for. The living, breathing Word is near me, in my mouth and in my heart.

It’s what I feast on when I’m hungry. It truly satisfies the longing in my soul. It’s the table David talks about in Psalm 23, the one prepared for me in the very presence of my enemies.

My heart is so full of His promises that I think on them day and night. When the enemy bombards my mind with turmoil, I remember that the peace of God will guard my heart and mind, keeping me at rest as I think on Him.

It brings me life because I choose it. I focus on today because I can do nothing about yesterday and tomorrow will take care of itself.

Everything I need for life is in me. His living Word is in me. His Spirit activates the promises made. His Word never returns to Him without accomplishing what He sent it to do.

If He said it, it’s settled. Done deal. Take it to the bank and cash the check. Jesus’s blood sealed the deal. Don’t doubt it for a second.

Numbers 23:19 NASB2020
“God is not a man, that He would lie, nor a son of man, that He would change His mind; Has He said, and will He not do it? Or has He spoken, and will He not make it good?”

Remember your covenant!
