The first commandment of the ten tells us: “And God spoke all these words, saying: ‘I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. You shall have no other gods before Me” (EXODUS 20:1-3). The very first commandment was positioned to emphasize the importance of worshipping only God. This is key for us to understand how to please God. In the time in which we now live, there are many things that people worship, things that we make with our hands, that we make with our minds, or things that we see around us. But the essence of right worship is worshipping God alone in Spirit and in Truth (JOHN 4:23-24). Our study of Leviticus 17 today brings attention to the LORD’s laws that call His people to live holy lives before a holy God. And yet, although He is set apart––holy, holy, holy––He is also personal. The Scripture begins: “And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,” (LEVITICUS 17:1). In other words, the LORD spoke to Moses directly, as He would a friend (EXODUS 33:11). God is very serious about His commands because they keep us from failing and falling.
