The lines have fallen to me in pleasant places; yes, I have a good inheritance
God has gifted us with the Bible – a book of borders. Those borders are blessings, the means to abundant life. By choosing obedience instead of our own paths, we live in the life-giving flow of God’s Word.
God has established borders for us. You may have chosen to violate those boundaries – spiritually, emotionally, physically, financially or relationally. Choose the Door that is Christ Jesus. Walk through that Door to repent and return to your rightful place inside the blessings of God.
He is not looking for a perfect people; God is looking for a people who are willing. Not perfect, but willing to live by His truth, to speak out against evil, to reach out to alleviate suffering with His heart, His hands, and His feet. We are willing to choose for ourselves and our homes that we will serve the Lord with gladness.
God has chosen us to be the light of the world, to be the salt of the earth, right here and right now. He calls us to be blameless and harmless in the middle of a crooked and perverse generation, to shine like the stars in the sky (Philippians 2:15). We are the seasoning that brings out the God-flavor in this world, that points others to Him (Matthew 5:13).
God has not given us a spirit of fear – but of power, of love, and of a sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7). If God stands with us, who can stand against us? (Romans 8:31) Our faith is the victory that overcomes this world (1 John 5:4).
Commit to live within the borders that God has established. Your obedience opens the windows of heaven, a pouring-out of the blessings that are exceedingly abundantly above all that you could ask or even imagine (Ephesians 3:20). Let us joyfully live within the boundaries so that we may see our King and be counted worthy to gladly enter into that holy city one day.
Blessing:
Heavenly Father, thank You for the borders that You have established for me. I know that they are there to provide for me and to protect me. I commit to live within those boundaries. Thank You for the truth that sets me free, for the blessings found there. In the name of Jesus…amen.
