LIFE VALUED Deut. 5:17; 19:4-13 01The people of Israel were greatly blessed. They had the Lord God for their King, a wonderful land for their home, and a holy law for their guide, and yet they faced some of the same problems that society faces today. Sinful human nature being what it is, nations will always have to deal with "man's inhumanity to man," because the heart of every problem is still the problem of the heart. The enemy can employ sneaky ways to try to destroy our lives. The destructive results can grow deep roots, but you can be freed from them. By finding the roots we can dig them out spiritually and gain freedom through the cross. Physical symptoms disappear when they have no right to stick around in us. They have no authority to do so after the root of the spiritual connection is repented from and cut out. Some of the issues you struggle with may be rooted in the sin of abortion. Traumatic memories may be triggered as you work through the issues and I want you to be prepared for what God reveals to you. Maybe you murdered your family by the way you speak to them daily. Your hatred words are worse than bullets and knife cuts. You murder your family everyday by the way you treat them and speak to them in your comings and goings. These cities of refuge illustrate our salvation in Jesus Christ to who we have "fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us" Heb. 6:18, but they do so by contrast. The man who fled in Israel did so because he wasn't guilty of murder, but we flee because we are guilty and deserve to be judged. Nobody has to investigate our case because we know we have sinned and deserve God's punishment.
