“I have talked with you
from heaven.” Ex 20:22 NKJV
Today’s Insight
When God gave the Ten Commandments to His people, He said, “I have talked with you from heaven.” In other words, you have “the Word from Above.” End of discussion. Just do it! That being said, let’s spend the next few days looking at how the Ten Commandments apply to you.
(1)
“You shall have no other gods before me” (v. 3 NIV). Have you
seen the new all-purpose greeting card? The front says, “Generic card,” and the
inside reads, “Happy whatever!” The first commandment was designed to stop us
from going through life doing whatever we feel like. It grabs us by the collar
and says, “Hold on, Jesus is supposed to be Lord of your life so put Him
first!”
(2)
“You shall not make for yourself an idol” (v. 4 NIV). Now,
most of us wouldn’t dream of worshipping an idol. But how about your loyalty to
things that have no eternal value, like pleasure, power, position, and
possessions? Isn’t that idolatry too? Anything that comes before God is an
idol.
(3)
“You shall not misuse the name of the Lord your God” (v. 7 NIV). But just
because you don’t use profanity doesn’t mean you honor the name of the Lord. As
a believer you must honor God in your speech, your conduct, and your attitude.
The truth is, you are the only Bible many people will ever read. Paul writes,
“Clearly, you are a letter from Christ showing the result of our ministry among
you. This ‘letter’ is written not with pen and ink, but with the Spirit of the
living God” (2Co 3:3 NLT).
Today’s Prayer

direct our footsteps unto your will that we might not stumble as we walk by

us to love your Word so that we will be secure as we serve you for your glory
In Jesus’ Name. Amen!
