Deuteronomy 28:13 NIV
“The Lord will make you the head, not the tail. If you pay attention to the commands of the Lord your God that I give you this day and carefully follow them, you will always be at the top, never at the bottom.”
There are some verses that you come across that hit you, won’t leave you and keep you thinking for someone. That verse is one this happened with yesterday. It was in my daily reading. Powerful.
It is my understanding that the promises of God are not just for way back when. They are for today. Trust Him. Seek Him. Watch Him work.
But God isn’t a magic something that we go to get what we want. He has a plan, and what He does is to complete us and to bring His glory as well as to see that His plan to in place. I have seen this time and time again. Have you? Have you watched something come together in your life that you thought was useless or never ending?
God is at work. Trust Him.
God has a plan. You are not done. Trust Him.
God is the one who is for you and not again you. Trust Him.
Look at verse again. Pull apart the pieces that seem to stick out. Watch the promises that come in to place as you do what God says. This really is for your good and his glory. The future is bright!
Pay attention to the commands God has given. Don’t just pay attention but follow. When we are in the place prepare for us, we will be able to do what He says and be who He made us to be.
That is the head and not the tail. That is on top and not on bottom. What does that mean?
It might not be that you always the leader. It might not be that you will be the richest your’ve ever been. It might not mean that you get what you want.
What it does mean is that God will complete His good things in your life. You will be the best you that He made you to be. That puts us right in the middle of His will.
That is where I want to be!
