Leviticus 26:36
Excerpted from: COVID-19 and Returning to NormalOn the other hand, if you believe that COVID-19 is more sound than fury—that there has been an epic overreaction to something akin to the seasonal flu, and that the nation has been hobbled by irrational fear—you can also find that in God’s promises. Leviticus 26:36 foretells of a people so fearful that the sound of a shaken leaf causes them to flee, and it stems from God sending faintness or weakness into their hearts. So, whichever scenario you tend toward, God claims responsibility, but the result should be the same. Our national and individual response should not be to argue with those across the political aisle or the Internet connection, but to recognize God’s hand and consider our own ways.
Leviticus 26:21-41
Excerpted from: Tired ClichésAny word repeated exactly seven times in a passage is the crucial word in that section. Leviticus 26 contains horrifying details of the consequences when God’s covenant with Israel is shattered. In Leviticus 26:21-41, the word repeated seven times is keri. It means casual, random and mindless. These verses indicate that of all the damaging results of relating to God with unthinking casualness, the worst is that He subsequently relates to us in exactly the same way. This is the principle of reciprocity!
Leviticus 26:36-42
Excerpted from: Does Doctrine Really Matter? (Part 2)The general principle revealed here is a gradual ever-increasing intensity of pressure brought to bear upon God's people in order to bring about the much desired knowledge of God, followed by repentance and reformation of life.
Knowledge, acceptance, doing, but with an ever increasing intensity of pressure God has already deemed as necessary to bring people to this point.
