Day 51

February 20th

Leviticus 12-14:32.  “Vitamin Be One”
This section covers some things that are kind of unpleasant just to read about.  But, amazingly, it all goes back to the theme of Leviticus—holiness.  
I have read historical accounts of the physical health of the Israelites compared to other nations of their time and area.  The Israelites were far healthier.  Their birthrate was higher.  The longevity and health of the nation just seemed much stronger.  Why?  The rules.
There are so many directives concerning purification procedures for water and food, contaminated materials, circumventing contagious diseases, etc.  
Again, we are reminded of the fact that God’s rules have purpose.  God wants holy people set apart for Him.  Yet, in addition to being the Almighty God He is also their Protector.  God takes care of His people even through a series of rules designed to protect them from disease and sickness.
It is this kind of reminder that we need to prompt us to remember that God’s intentions and purpose are far more arranged than our short-term vision would let us think.
General Questions for each day:
Summarize the day’s Bible passage in your own words.
What thoughts, actions, attitudes or beliefs are addressed in the passage?
How is the Holy Spirit leading you to apply this passage to your life today?
