We've talked about the Royal Law for over a week, focusing on the need to treat others as we want to be treated - with love. We've also learned of the need to be cautious in our communications which include what we say and hear. The Lord showed us in His word to not gossip and slander and to not lie & give false witness against someone.


Today we focus on an issue that may seem unrelated to the Royal Law but can't be separated from the command.


God sees all and judges all.


Many of us forget that God is the judge of all as stated in Psalm 75:7 - It is God who judges: He brings one down, He exalts another. However, He makes it very clear that He watches each of us closely and takes note of what we do and don't do (Proverbs 15:3).


Therefore, we reap what we sow.


Galatians 6:7 tells us, Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows. This scripture is a clear warning that we must be intentional in how we live and that includes how we treat others, for the Lord will call us all to account for everything we've done and said. Whatever seed we plant will bear eventual fruit that we shall have to eat. Consequently, we need to be careful how we think of others, what we say, and how we treat people.


Although human beings can only observe what people do, God sees past everybody's exterior behavior. Proverbs 20:27 - The human spirit is the lamp of the Lord that sheds light on one's inmost being. As such, God knows what lurks in the deepest part of us and there can be no pretense with Him. Our mental attitudes must align with His, so we don't allow negative thinking (even about ourselves) to produce actions and communications that are bad fruits to later be reaped.


So as we apply The Royal Law each day let us remember that we cannot hide anything from our God. Indeed all shall reap what they sow. Thus, let us live in accordance with His word that we shall enjoy the benefits of the Royal Law. These benefits stem from obedience and they include God's favor, long life, success in endeavors and more.


May this knowledge guide us to walk in fear and righteousness before Him. The Lord will help us all IJMN, Amen.
