Canaan is a land that must look up to the sky.
Even after conquering Canaan, we must not let our guard down.
Only by reflecting on what God has said and making it the guide and direction of life can we manage life there.
If Israel pursues its desires through idols and goes against the established laws, it will quickly perish from its beautiful land.
God's eyes will be on the land from the beginning of the year until the end of the year.
God wants Israel's heart, not obligations and formalities.
Read the Word thoroughly, understanding the sincerity and love of God contained between the lines of His commandments.

People in the Judges era were awkward in communicating with God.
Israel also forgot how to fight with God.
Before going into battle, they do not ask God first or listen to His voice, and they only think of 'God' when the war does not go well.
The first step to recovery is restoring your spiritual channel with God.
Only when we remember God and cry out to Him can we find true restoration and peace.

Psalm 119 is one of the most structured psalms.
This is a poem written with great care, stitch by stitch, like a skilled craftsman embroidering a piece of paper.
The poet fell in love with the 'law'.
Immerse yourself in God's law, read, study, meditate on it.
The law is true, correct, solid, and firm foundation.
The Word of God is alive and active.
The international situation is in turmoil due to threats from nations and empires, and in foreign temples, orgy and cruel rituals are performed.
In the midst of this, the Jews discovered the true light contained in the Law.
Cleanliness, solidity, firmness, clarity, order, and purification! God's word opened their eyes.

To dwell under the Lord's rule is 'heaven'.
When you enter into a personal relationship with the Lord by knowing and believing in Him, you gain eternal life and pass from death to life.
Right now, you are in the 'realm of life'.
Yet, salvation is an ongoing journey of faith.
We must abide in Jesus to the end.

What does a "living Christian" look like? John examines whether, as a "Christian born again in Jesus," one's life possesses "spiritual and moral breath and pulse."
Let us check whether we are in truth and love.
God's powerful love is the driving force behind everything.
The incarnation of God, the rebirth of man, and new life all began with love and move toward love.
Love circulates through the saints and the community, supplying life, just as blood circulates through a healthy organism.
