For I am the LORD your God. Consecrate yourselves therefore, and be holy, for I am holy.
The book of Leviticus has 37 references in the ESV which contain the phrase, "For I am the LORD your God" or a variant thereof. It is not an exaggeration to suggest that the entire book should be read as a treatise on how to respond in acknowledgment of the Lordship of the LORD, God, the Almighty. Every sentence should be read as an instruction about how His people are to demonstrate their love for the LORD or their neighbors. And to do so in gratitude for His mercy that has redeemed us.
Today's readings in the Psalms:
Morning: Psalm 61
