Deuteronomy 28:15
"But it shall come to pass if thou wilt not hearken
unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to observe
to do all his commandments and his statutes
which I command thee this day; that all
these curses shall come upon thee,
and overtake thee."
If we do not keep God's commandments, we not only come short of the blessing promised, but we lay ourselves under the curse, Observe the justice of this curse, and the extent and power of this curse. Wherever the sinner goes, the curse of God follows; wherever he is, it rests upon him. What ever he has is under a curse. All his enjoyments are made bitter; he cannot take any true comfort in them, for the wrath of God mixes itself with them. The judgments stated here, which would be the fruits of the curse, and with which God would punish the people of the Jews, for their apostasy and disobedience. We may observe the fulfilling of these threatening's in their present state. To complete the misery, it is threatened that by these troubles the sinner should be bereaved of all comfort and hope, and left to utter despair. Those who walk by sight, and not by faith, are in danger of losing reason itself, when every thing about them looks frightful.
Amen!!
