But from there you will seek the LORD your God, and you will find Him if you seek Him with all your heart and with all your soul. Deuteronomy 4:29

The promise revealed to the children of Israel that if they acted corruptly in the land of Canaan and did not keep the divine precepts, they would be scattered everywhere and would decrease in number. They would have to have firmness of purpose to follow the Lord and be watchful so that they didn’t create idols and serve them. Undoubtedly, the same warning weighs on God’s people today because they, just like the Israelites, were placed in the Promised Land – the Gospel.

Their punishment would not be eternal because if they sought the Lord’s favor in their exile, they would find it. This serves as a message to many people who, after getting rid of their problems, turned their back to the Most High and today they have a broken family, they are full of problems and do not know what to do to get rid of so many bad things that have befallen them. The remedy prescribed to Israel is for all those who are in trouble.

Note that the Lord speaks to the Israelites about the possibility of them acting corruptly after staying for a long time in the land. But today, in spite of this biblical account, we have seen many children of God commit the same mistakes. Instead of being role models to the newly converted, they got carried away by sins of the past and turned away from the Lord. Just like them, the saved today have also been found in a state of spiritual exile and have gone through a lot of suffering.

They would not prolong their days in the land they would inherit. Many people don’t feel anything when they hear the preaching of the Word, they don’t pray and don’t want to go to church! The aim of those people is to amass wealth and enjoy the pleasures of the flesh; as a result, they become insensitive to the fate of the lost who oftentimes are members of their own family. They need to re-evaluate the wrong they have done because they are far from God.

Do not believe in last minute repentance because when the time comes for you to leave this world it may happen so fast that there won’t even be time for a prayer. Be careful so that the deceitfulness of riches, the cares of life and the ambition of other things do not become your masters. Examine yourself and see if you have remained in faith, or if it is no longer part of your daily life. Be careful not to be abandoned by the Lord forever.

God loves those who love Him, and those who seek to find Him shall find Him. But those who forsake Him shall be forsaken. The promise says that wherever they were, no matter how far away it was, that people would find the Lord if they sought Him with all their heart. Do not trifle with your eternal destiny, because spiritual matters are the most serious of life. No sin pays off for the suffering that awaits those who transgress.

Grab this opportunity and seek the Most High. As you pray, be honest with Him; do not try to deceive the One who knows everything, sees everything and is everywhere. If you have fallen, confess it; if you turned cold, ask Him to visit you and stir up your faith. Resume fulfilling your vows. God gives you the chance to be happy forever.

In Christ with Love,

Faithful and gracious God! You had already warned the children of Israel about the possibility of them leaving you and digging broken cisterns for themselves, which would not retain water. In doing so, they would be engaging in the worst possible spiritual practice, which is to serve the demons.

However, the door was not completely closed to them. If when they were going through severe hardships they remembered You, Your promises and how happy they were when they served and sought You, they would find You. Father, look at this reader and rescue him/her.

May we make the decision of seeking you earnestly and may we not give respite to our hearts until we meet You, because we need Your love, life and solution to all our problems! Lord, allows us to meet you and assist us in this task.
