If you walk in My statues and keep My commandments, and perform them, then I will give you rain in its season that land shall yield its produce, and the trees of the field shall yield their fruit. Leviticus 26:3-4
Growing up on a farm, I can tell you that it takes a lot
of hard work and dedication to prepare fields for planting. From treating the
soil to make sure it’s chemistry is correct, to removing weeds and planting at
just the right time of year, it takes time and effort, but in the end will yield
an abundant harvest. One critical element that is out of a farmer’s control is
the weather. Without adequate rain, the crops will yield very little and all
that effort will be wasted.
Today’s scripture is a message from God to the people of
Israel, that if they obey God’s commandments He will bless them with rain so their
crops can produce and provide food to sustain them. Bringing this closer to
home, you might not have a garden, but your life is fertile ground for God’s
blessings. Jesus Christ did all the hard work to prepare your life to receive
those blessings through His sacrificial death on the cross. This very act
opened the door to a personal relationship with God. All He asks that you live
in complete obedience to His will for your life.
Your life is a field of faith, ready to yield a rich harvest. Are you
willing to live for Him every day and perform the way He desires? Your life will
yield much for the kingdom of God when you truly live for Him, as He blesses and
nourishes your life for an abundant harvest, year after year.

Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path. Psalm 119:105
There is another tip that works for safely navigating life. Seek after the “light” when approaching life’s decisions. God’s word is full of wisdom to help you maintain safe travels on the narrow pathway of righteousness. Any deviation from that pathway, leads to the potential for spiritual disaster. I can tell you first hand, some decisions I made in life were made without consulting God’s word, and I paid dearly for those silly choices. God brought me through them, but not without a lesson learned that His way always leads to safety.
But whoever listens to me will dwell safely, and will be secure, without fear of evil. Proverbs 1:33
What decisions face
you today? Seek after the light and the right path will be exposed through God’s
word and His Holy Spirit’s voice of wisdom. God bless!
