Later, in Titus 2:14 it says, “Who gave Himself for us to redeem us from all wickedness and to purify for Himself a people who are His very own, eager to do what is good.” If as a Believer, we could fully grasp just how valued and cherished we are in the Lord’s sight, we would be radically changed. But we can grasp it in a fashion. Jesus Christ died in our place on that Cross…taking upon Himself our sins, in order that we may have a pathway to God. You want to know how precious you are to the Lord? Take a look at His hands and feet…He willingly endured that for you.

James 2:1 “My brothers, as believers in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ, don’t show favoritism.”
Deuteronomy 10:17 states, “God doesn’t show partiality and He accepts no bribes.” So as a Follower of Jesus, we should not either. When we allow bias to color our judgment…we are opening ourselves up to bigotry… prejudging entire groups of people based on one incident…or one person. God never favors one person over another…for He is always impartial and fair…and we should be also.
Deuteronomy 32:4 ” He is the Rock, His works are perfect, and all His ways are just. A faithful God Who does no wrong, upright and just is He.”
He is the foundation you can build your life on. He is fair and impartial with all His dealings. Everything He does is complete and flawless from beginning to end. He will never be anything but totally honest with you. Could you then put your trust in such a God? I urge you today to give Him a chance …you will not be sorry.
Deuteronomy 32:3 ” I will proclaim the name of the Lord. Oh, praise the greatness of our God!”
Declare the majesty and strength of the Lord Almighty. Let those around you today know just how great your God is. Don’t be afraid to share what He has done in your life. For elsewhere in Deuteronomy it proclaims, ” O Sovereign Lord, You have begun to show Your servant Your greatness and Your strong hand. For what god is there in heaven or on earth who can do the deeds and mighty works You do?”
Deuteronomy 2:2-3 ” Then the Lord said to me,’ You have made your way around this hill country long enough…’ “
The Lord has a way of teaching us lessons. If we’re a quick study and obey immediately, we move forward with Him. But if we ignore or refuse to heed the message…He will “send us around the mountain one more time”…until we’re again facing that same old matter. Depending on our willingness, stubbornness, or just plain stupidity will determine how many times we make that long trip around.
