Daniel 9:4 I prayed to the LORD my God and confessed: "Lord, the great and awesome God, who keeps his covenant of love with those who love him and keep his commandments
We should all know to keep the commandments of God. Especially the first one about the “no other gods”. The battle is for the covenants of love from both ends. His is real always, but we violate that covenant over and over until we do not even desire to look at the commandments. Marriages are covenants of love (whether eros or agape), but the structures of those covenants are marred by anger, lust, selfishness and many other temptations that violate the covenants. So it is with our Father who loves us with all of creation and His Spirit. On our side, we do get caught up in self-worship, other sources of pleasure, security and promise. Daniel is praying about Israel’s failure to keep the covenant with the commandments. The key is the covenant, the commandments are within the covenant. Yahweh keeps His covenant, but constantly is reaching out to the wayward people (individuals) and nation (the whole people) to keep their end alive. Do you want your covenant with God alive?
