Leviticus 15:1-16:28
Again, this passage deals with more instructions and directions for different events that happen in daily lives. I understand the need for clarity. Lord, I need this same discipline and clarity in my life.
Mark 7:1-23
The first passage is so accurate and true when the Pharises challenge Jesus as to why His disciples don't follow the age old traditions. Jesus tells them that Isaiah was right when he prophesied "These people honor Me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me. Their worship is a farce, for they teach man made ideas as commands from God. They are ignoring God's laws and substituting their traditions. All of you LISTEN: IT'S NOT WHAT GOES INTO YOUR BODY THAT DEFILES YOU, YOU ARE DEFILED BY WHAT COMES FROM YOUR HEART." This is an important parable espcially in today's times. I believe Jesus is saying it's not the things that we are subject to that make us sin or do wrong things. They can be passed through you. It is what comes from within: adultery, lust, greed, wickedness, etc.
Psalms 40:11-17
This psalm is awesome and great. If this is David again, he is in a great place and I love this passage; he speaks of his many sins and the line "May those who love your slavation repeatedlly shout 'The Lord is great'." This whole psal is so powerful and insightful.
