His Word for Today: Book of Deuteronomy 22:23-24

This morning’s verse continues to talk about living right with a Godly focus. 

What is Biblical focus to us? Is it about ignoring interruptions so that we can be focused on fulfilling the initial objective? Jesus was often interrupted to serve others despite being on His way to fulfill His initial objective. (Ref Mark 5:21-43, Luke 8:40-56) His way of focus teaches us something different from what the world teaches. The world may negate being interrupted in an effort to focus. 

However, the man and woman in this morning’s Scriptures were interrupted not for Godly purpose but distracted for evil. 

This is one of the reasons why it is important to continue to study Scriptures on a daily basis to renew our minds especially dealing with our blind spots to experience more of Christ. (Ref Romans 12:1-2)

Today, let us assess where our focus is. Godly focus is not about ignoring the interruptions, the opportunity to serve others. But His focus is certainly about keeping away from evil temptations, the distractions so that we can stay focused on His purpose for us. 

May the Lord continue to richly bless you!
