SAME INSTRUCTIONS
Today's reading: Deuteronomy 10-12

"At that time the Lord said to me, Prepare two stone tablets like the first ones, and make a sacred chest of wood to keep them in. Return to me on the mountain and I will write on the tablets the same words that were on the ones you smashed..." Deuteronomy 10:1-2 NLT

A wasted trip up the mountain? A forty days of prayer and fasting for what reason? An unruly bunch of people left unattended for a short amount of time? A mad prophet? Two broken tablets? Another trip up the mountain?

The same words. Nothing changed. No restrictions lifted. No orders cancelled. No sins slipped under the heading, 'Gray Area.

Circumstances do not alter His plans. Disobedience does not throw Him for a loop.

The same rules He provided the wandering Israelites are applicable today! Nothing has changed in the basic instructions He has given to us!
