The Top, Not The Bottom – The Proviso!
You’re the head, not the tail.
I have had this scripture (mis) quoted at me all my born-again days – and really I got a bit tired of it. I didn’t know it was being misquoted, I mean I would go and have a look at it and I would read like I was told it – not how it’s really written, not how God is actually saying it.
I got a bit tired of it because I believed it like it was a magic wand – we’re the head and not the tail, or I’m the head and not the tail – so why did I not see it materialize in my life? Why was I not at the top and not the bottom in so many situations?
It’s because I wasn’t reading the promise in it’s entirety – I wasn’t giving any attention to the proviso!
The Lord WILL make me the head and not the tail, provided I PAY ATTENTION to what and how THE LORD is leading my life – OK, I’ve translated it into “New Testament” speak – but that’s it in a nutshell, we WILL be at the top and not the bottom as we grow used to and follow the leading of God, Father Son and Holy Ghost in our daily ride in this life!
Deuteronomy 28:13 (NIV)
The Lord will make you the head, not the tail. If you pay attention to the commands of the Lord your God that I give you this day and carefully follow them, you will always be at the top, never at the bottom.
I am so glad to do it His way – not completely there yet, even after all these years, but, I love working on it!
God is amazing!
See You In Church Church!
