Daily Bible Reading — Sustained By God’s Word Of Peace And JusticeSample
October 14
Introduction
Moses challenges the Israelites to obey the LORD so they can go in and occupy the land the LORD promised to give them. He reminds them that God’s laws are just.
Today’s Scripture: Deuteronomy 4:7
[Moses said:] “No other nation, no matter how great, has a god who is so near when they need him as the LORD our God is to us. He answers us whenever we call for help.”
Today’s Reading
Deuteronomy 4:1-14
Reflect
What must the people of Israel do in order to occupy the land God promised to give them (verse 1)? Reread verses 3 and 4. What does Moses exhort the people to remember? What does Moses instruct the people to tell their children? How is the faith passed on to succeeding generations within your community of faith?
Pray
Almighty God, you hear us when we call to you for help and you are always near. Help me to remember your commandments and teach them to others so that everyone will know of your steadfast love and faithfulness and grow in the knowledge of you. Amen.
Prayer Concern
Parents and children
Tomorrow’s Reading
Deuteronomy 4:15-40: Moses warns the people not to worship idols.
