Today, I am reading and commenting on Deuteronomy 11-13.
Moses begins today’s passage by reminding the Israelites that they were the ones who had seen God’s wondrous signs and experienced His discipline for disobedience. We must remember this, we have seen God’s wondrous works (at least, I hope that you have, I know that I have). Others may not have, so let us be careful about how we let them influence us. But whether others have seen God’s great signs or not, if you have you are responsible to remember what those signs mean. Be careful not to be enticed to worship and/or serve other gods. Do whatever you need to do to remember, and follow, the commands which God has given to us. If that means attaching them to you hands, or writing them on your forehead, then do so. And let us talk about God’s commands, to our children and to our friends, when we are at home and when we are away from home. Talk about them in the evening as you get ready for sleep, and in the morning as you prepare for the day. In every waking moment, think about what God’s commands mean for what you do next.
I use the daily Bible reading schedule from “The Bible.net” for my daily Bible reading.
