“Tell the Israelites, ‘You are a stiff-necked people. If I were to go with you even for a moment, I might destroy you.

If you are pleased with me, teach me your ways so I may know you and continue to find favor with you

And the Lord said to Moses, “I will do the very thing you have asked, because I am pleased with you and I know you by name.”

 Although this is a stiff-necked people, forgive our wickedness and our sin, and take us as your inheritance.”

Obey what I command you today. I will drive out before you the Amorites, Canaanites, Hittites, Perizzites, Hivites and Jebusites.

Lord God my Father,

Your plan is perfect and I struggle to follow it with obedience. Lord God, help me to surrender my will and desires and be filled with your way without delay. Give me instruction and remove distractions that draw me away from your plan. Make me stubborn in following you alone.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen
