“'I will have respect for you, and make you fruitful, and multiply you, and will establish my covenant with you. You shall eat old store long kept, and you shall move out the old because of the new. I will set my tent among you, and my soul won’t abhor you. I will walk among you, and will be your God, and you will be my people.
- Leviticus 26:9-12 (WEB)
Study:
This passage highlights God’s promise of abundant blessings to His people when they faithfully follow His commands. God pledges respect, fruitfulness, and multiplication, which signify not just survival but thriving abundance. The imagery of eating “old store long kept” reminds us of a sustained provision, while the replacement of old with new reveals continual renewal and growth. Above all, God promises to dwell among His people, establishing an intimate relationship marked by His protective and loving presence. This walking together means God is not distant, but actively involved in the lives of His people, guiding and blessing them with His goodness.
Application:
Today, we are invited to experience God's abundant goodness by walking closely with Him. This means cultivating a personal relationship through prayer, obedience, and trust. Even in times of uncertainty or scarcity, God's promise to provide and renew remains steadfast. Recognizing His presence in our daily lives helps us to live with confidence and joy, knowing we are not alone. Moreover, just as God promises to walk with His people, we are called to walk humbly with one another, extending His love and grace in our communities.
Reflection Questions:
- In what ways do I experience God's presence in my daily life?
- How can I better trust God's promises of provision and renewal?
- What does it mean for me to walk closely with God and with others?
- Am I making space for God to dwell in my heart and life fully?
Prayer:
Lord, thank You for Your steadfast love and faithfulness. Help me to walk closely with You each day, experiencing Your abundant goodness and presence. Teach me to trust Your provision and to extend Your grace to those around me. May Your covenant of love be reflected in all I do. Amen.
