Theme For David Jeremiah Devotional 3 October 2019 – DILIGENCE
Only take heed to yourself, and diligently keep yourself.
Deuteronomy 4:9
Recommended Reading: Deuteronomy 6:4-9
Diligence is a theme of the book of Deuteronomy, which tells us to “diligently heed the voice of the Lord” (Deuteronomy 28:1); to “diligently [teach God’s law] to your children” (6:7); to “diligently keep the commandments” (6:17); and to diligently weed out corruption from our midst (13:13-15). Are you diligent about listening to God’s voice, teaching His words to your children, obeying Him, and ridding your life of impurities?
According to 2 Peter 1:10, by diligence we make our “calling and election sure.” Those who follow the Lord with a constant effort of persistence grow in their daily confidence and assurance of His love. Don’t just follow Jesus from a distance. Be diligent about keeping in step with Him. Take your faith seriously every day, like a farmer cultivating his crops.
Diligence makes the rough places plain, the difficult easy, and the unsavory tasty.
