There
is nothing inevitable about the chain of events described in these
verses. These are the consequences of disobedience. God is warning His
people: 'If you will not obey the voice of the Lord your God...'
(28:15). Why does God warn His people of the consequences of
disobedience? He wants them to draw back from the way of disobedience
and follow the pathway of obedience and blessing. These 'curses' were
avoidable. They would only happen if Israel persisted in rebelling
against the Lord. We can bring 'curses' upon ourselves. Don't imagine
that God doesn't care how you live. He does. That is why He calls us
back from the pathway of disobedience. That is why He exhorts us to
choose holiness. Read Hebrews 10:26-31; 12:25-29. Pray for God's mercy
(Luke 18:13). Ask Him to make you more holy (Hebrews 12:14).
