Discernment in a deceptive age: How to sharpen our spiritual senses (Deuteronomy 29–30)
Manage episode 442661046 series 1079414
The Torah readings נִצָּבִים Nitzavim (“standing,” Deut. 29:10–30:20) and וַיֵּלֶךְ Vayelech (“he went,” Deut. 31:1–30) teaches us that it is in this act of surrender and obedience that we find the strength to cut off any desires that would lead us astray. May we embrace the transformative power of Heaven, that we might walk the path of life and leave a lasting legacy for those who come after us.
5 ways to build our lives on הַצּוּר haTzur (the Rock)
- Choose life over death. Recognize that there is no middle ground, and respond to God’s call to return to where humanity belongs.
- Keep God’s word in your heart and mouth. Internalize the teachings of the Torah — as foretold in the New Covenant prophecy — via the work of the Word and the Spirit. Let the inscribed words guide your thoughts and actions.
- Build your life on the Rock of Israel, not shifting sand. Establish your foundation on the stability and dependability of God, not the fleeting things of this world.
- Allow the Holy One to “circumcise” your heart. Continually examine and actively offer up any desires or parts of your life that draw you away from God’s path.
- Teach the next generation. Pass on the wisdom of God’s word to your children and future generations, so they too can build their lives on the solid Rock — Messiah (1Cor. 10:1–5).
The key is to firmly build the foundation of our life on the Rock — His teachings and His ways (Matt. 7:24–27) — so that we can withstand the storms and challenges of life. This requires ongoing commitment and willingness to let God transform our hearts.
