(Leviticus 18:24–30 Easy: “Don’t make yourself unclean by doing any of these wrong things! I am throwing nations off their land and giving it to you because they did those terrible sins. They made the land filthy. Now the land is sick of those things, and it will vomit out the people who live there. “So, you must obey my laws and rules. You must not do any of these terrible sins. These rules are for the citizens of Israel and the people living among you. Those who lived in the land before you have done all these terrible things. So the land became filthy. If you do these things, you will make the land filthy. And it will vomit you out as it vomited out the nations that were there before you. Whoever does any of these terrible sins must be separated from their people! Other people have done these terrible sins, but you must obey my laws. You must not do any of these terrible sins. Do not make yourself filthy with these terrible sins. I am the Lord your God.”)

The closing verses remind us that choices have consequences and that God’s call to holiness is also a call to life. Turning away from harmful patterns is not merely avoidance, it’s choosing the flourishing God intends for us.

Dear Blessed Lord Jesus, give me the strength to turn from what destroys and the resolve to choose what brings life. Help me live so others see Your goodness through me.  Love You, thank You, praise You and give You all the honor and glory in Your Mighty Precious Name Amen.
