Thankful for Revealed Secrets!
Scripture reading for February 24th: Deuteronomy 25-29
Key Scriptures: Deuteronomy 29:29 “The secret things belong to the Lord our God, but the things revealed belong to us and to our children forever, that we may follow all the words of this law.”
God made a covenant with His people. He had them recite the blessings that would overtake them if they obeyed God’s law. He had another group recite the curses that would come after them if they disobeyed and broke the covenant. This covenant truth was for God’s people then and for all generations. The Law revealed God’s holiness and love for His people, calling them to live by faith in every Word and ultimately in Jesus Christ!
Rejoice in the ‘mystery’ revealed: God, in Christ Jesus, revealed the mystery of salvation for Jew and Gentile through faith in Christ’s shed blood! “Although I am less than the least of all God’s people, this grace was given to me: to preach to the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ, and to make plain to everyone the administration of this mystery, which for past ages was kept hidden in God, who created all things.” (Ephesians 3:8-9)
