| And yet for all that, when they be in the land of their enemies, I will not cast them away, neither will I abhor them, to destroy them utterly, and to break my covenant with them: for I am the LORD their God. But I will for their sakes remember the covenant of their ancestors, whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt in the sight of the heathen, that I might be their God: I am the LORD. | ||
| Leviticus 26:44–45 | ||
| Even in the time of captivity, even in the place of bondage which was due to their own disobedience, God says, “I won’t forget or forsake My people.” And that is the Word of the Lord for you and me today. God is saying, “If you walk in My law, you’ll be blessed. If you wander from My law, you’ll be burned. But even if you’re in captivity, know this: I have not forsaken you, for lo, I am with you always” (see Matthew 28:20). Every broken commandment, every ignored precept can be forgiven because of what Jesus did for us on Calvary. Therefore, even if we’re in the land of the Enemy, God still cares about us. If we’ll confess our sin to Him, if we’ll call upon His name, He’ll restore us once again. “If you wander from My ways, terror will come,” God says. “If you walk in My ways, I’ll bless you. It’s your choice. The ball is in your court.” Pastor Jon Courson | ||
