If you listen to these commands of the LORD your God that I am giving you today, and if you will carefully obey them, the LORD will make you the head and not the tail, and you will always be on top and never at the bottom.

Deuteronomy 28:13 NLT Bible

This is God's promise to us, to make us the head and not the tail, but it comes with a requirement....obedience. God wants to see us living in victory, triumphant over circumstances and temptations, but we must be willing to do our part. Many believers go through life living like the tail, always thinking of themselves as the underdog. They walk around forlorn and dejected, thinking that they're getting a raw deal in life. However, if we understand the promise that God has given us in His Word and comply with the conditions, we can be the head and live up to our full potential.

We have to be obedient and faithful in our service to God, and this is an ongoing process. It's obeying God regardless of how difficult it may be at times. As we walk in obedience, God lifts us up and pours out His blessings on our lives. We are empowered and given the strength to be examples of goodness and righteousness. Feelings of inferiority and self loathing disappear, and we can hold our heads high and be confident of who we are in Christ Jesus. God has destined us to be the head and to be on top. As His children, we need to grab hold of this promise and strive to live in total obedience.

Thank you, Lord, for making me the head and not the tail. I need Your strength, wisdom and guidance, so that I can always be obedient to Your laws and commands. I love you, Jesus. Amen!

Be Blessed!
