God Wants Order and Cleanliness from Us ㅡ

 “And the Lord said unto Moses, Go unto the people, and sanctify them today and tomorrow, and let them wash their clothes.” (Exodus 19:10).

Incorrect personal habits are among the most prolific causes of disease.

Order and cleanliness are laws of heaven.

The directions given to Moses when the Lord was about to declare His law upon Mount Sinai were very strict in this respect.

They were directed to do this, lest there should be impurity about them as they should come before God.

He is a God of order, and He requires order and cleanliness in His people.

The Lord requires no less of His people now than He did anciently.

If cleanliness was so necessary to those journeying in the wilderness, who were in the open air nearly all the time, it is no less necessary to us, who live in close houses, where impurities are more observable and have a more unhealthful influence.

The moral law, spoken from Sinai, cannot have a place in the hearts of persons of disorderly, filthy habits.

If the children of Israel could not so much as listen to the proclamation of that holy law without cleanliness of person and clothing, how can its pure precepts be written upon the hearts of those who are untidy in their persons and their homes?

 (Christ Triumphant 113)
