“You Have Dealt Faithfully…”

May 30, 2020

“You Have Dealt Faithfully…”

Blessings folk!

The Levites now reach the conclusion to all that they prayed before the Lord on behalf of the people…

Neh 9:33
“However, You are just in all that has come upon us;
For You have dealt faithfully, but we have acted wickedly.

God is just in all that He had done.
God had dealt faithfully with the people.

The people had acted wickedly.
They received just and faithful action from God.

Neh 9:34-35
“For our kings, our leaders, our priests and our fathers have not kept Your law
Or paid attention to Your commandments and Your admonitions with which You have admonished them.

“But they, in their own kingdom,
With Your great goodness which You gave them,
With the broad and rich land which You set before them,
Did not serve You or turn from their evil deeds.

The people, especially the leadership, had not kept the Lord’s law.
They had not paid attention to the Lord’s commandments.
They had not paid attention to the Lord’s admonitions.

What had they done?

Even though they had their own kingdom…
Even with the great goodness which God gave…
Even with the broad/rich land of promise set before them…

They did not serve the Lord.
They did not turn from their evil deeds.

One can “know” and still not “do”.

Be not like that.
