Hold Fast

Scripture:

“Your eyes have seen what the LORD did at Baal Peor; for the LORD your God has destroyed from among you all the men who followed Baal of Peor. But you who held fast to the LORD your God are alive today, every one of you.”
‭‭Deuteronomy‬ ‭4:3-4‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

Observation:

Moses is recounting all the things the Lord had done to the children of Israel.  He reminds them here what the LORD did to those men who followed Baal Peor.  Then he adds, “But those who held fast to the LORD your God are alive today, every one of you.”  Those who held fast to the LORD and didn’t follow any other gods, were all kept alive.

Application:

When trouble comes, it is easy to first away from the LORD.  When you are surrounded by other gods and people who are not godly, it is easy to be pulled their way.  We must be people who hold fast to the LORD no matter what happens around us.  We must be people who walk in faith in th midst of trouble.  Now is the time to hold fast to the LORD and see Him defeat our enemies.

Prayer:

Father, You are amazing and I love You with all my heart.  In the midst of Coronavirus and everything going crazy around us, help me to hold fast to Your will and Your ways.  Give us Your strength and provide supernaturally for Your people as we pursue You and follow Your ways.  Give us the strength to hold fast, no matter what comes our way and what we have to walk through.

Your Son,
Jeff
