Bible Bites
Bend Your Neck
“So, circumcise your heart and stiffen your neck no longer.” (Deuteronomy 10:16)
A stiff neck is a reference to an animal that refuses to be moved by the reins. We guide pack animals by leads which move their heads. The head moves, and the body follows.
But what if an animal refuses to look where you want it to? Stiff-necked.
How willing am I to bend the neck to God’s will? Am I willing to give Him the reins and look where He wants? Or do I let my eyes wander from the path He has chosen?
Hard hearts have stiff necks. Hearts for God have eyes for His Word.
Matthew 4:4 #Biblebites
