Diligently hearken
Exodus 15:26 amp. "Saying, If you will diligently hearken to the voice of the Lord your God and will do what is right in His sight, and will listen to and obey His commandments and keep all His statutes, I will put none of the diseases upon you which I brought upon the Egyptians, for I am the Lord Who heals you." There are many people on the face of this earth that are broken-hearted and diseased. Many have tried everything to heal the pain or find a cure for their problem. Some have spent thousands of dollars to live a life free from the heart-ache. Medicine and doctors are not getting any cheaper, and times are not getting any easier. After going through the wilderness with no water for three days, Moses brought Israel to a place called Marah. At Marah there was water, but the waters were bitter. The people also got bitter towards Moses, and began to complain about the problem they were facing. The wilderness in our lives, just as in the Israelites lives, is to help us grow and become totally dependent upon the Lord. We cannot let the problems we face bring bitterness between us and God. Christ was wounded for our transgressions and bruised for our iniquities, and with His stripes we are healed. At the Cross of Christ, all our burdens are washed away. Seek the Lord diligenty, and listen to His voice. Walk in obedience with His Word upon your heart, for you are healed. Thank you Jesus.
