If We Forsake Him...


The sky over your head will be bronze, the ground beneath you iron. 

What a visual of a life that’s forsaken God and his commands.

Bronze is used to make weapons and armor, not something I want over my head.  And iron has a melting point of 2,797 degrees!  That means if the ground is like iron, it can get very hot and uncomfortable before it melts…

Imagine living under a sky of bronze, and walking on ground that’s iron.  There would never be rain to refresh, and no growth or green beneath our feet.

Sounds like the inside of a prison, right?  We might as well be chained up and left to die.

That’s the life “we choose” if we forsake the Lord.


He has such a beautiful sky full of blessings and a ground that’s beautiful for planting, if we only obey His commands.
