I realize the cited scripture addresses Israel prior to entering into war to possess the land promised by God, however because we have been adopted into Christ family the same promises apply to us. We are special in the eyes of God no matter what others may think of us, or the mistakes we have made. God loves us so deeply that he made provisions through Jesus Christ to change our destiny of death and hell to eternal life in perfect conditions. Once we accept Jesus invitation and allow him to become our Lord and Saviour no one is able to snatch us from the Father’s hand. (John 10:29) God’s love for us should prompt us to desire growth and change so we are transformed into his likeness sharing with others what was so freely given to us. Standing on the love of God provides us freedom and confidence in everything we do. I am so grateful the one and only true God looks after each of us constantly. What a mighty God we serve!!!

Thank you Lord for turning the curse of sin and death to forgiveness and eternal life. Amen!!!
