Leviticus 26:46
These are the decrees, the laws and the regulations that the Lord established at Mount Sinai between himself and the Israelites through Moses.
Shalom sdr, my devotion today, Tue, Feb. 2, MT. SINAI (Lev. 26:46). Mt. Sinai was not only a creation of God. It was not only the decoration of the nation or the world. It was not only the source of minerals, water and so forth. It is the witness of the covenant. People may go. Generations may change. But the witness of God can be seen till today. So, when we see Mt. Sinai, we remember
a. His choice.
He chose a stubborn and arrogant people. He chose the worst people to be his people. He chose the weakest people to carry through his will. Not because they are qualified. All because of his mercy.
b. His covenant.
God tied himself in a covenant. He put himself in a promise. His promise is once for all. We can see the continuity and contingency of his covenant till today. He didn’t make 2 or 3 covenants. He didn’t renew and remake the covenant with the children and the descendant. He simply repeated and reminded them about the covenant.
c. His care.
The choice and the covenant were the proof of his care toward The Israelites from that time till today. People will remember the miracles, the stubborness of the people, the punishments and the faithfulness of God. Do we remember his care?
