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.
