  • Verse to DATE the Word on December 28 (12/28) is Deuteronomy 12:28

    Observe and obey all these words which I command you, that it may go well with you and your children after you forever,
    when you do what is good and right in the sight of the LORD your God.” – Deuteronomy 12:28
    The RIGHT decision is always to do what is RIGHT in the SIGHT of God

    Breaking down our verse we discover the command to Observe and OBEY God’s commands. We discover the bountiful blessings that come to those who obey. blessings not just to the one obeying but extending to their children.  We discover that in obeying God’s commands we are DOING what HE has determined is GOOD (as opposed to what is BAD) and RIGHT (as opposed to what is WRONG).  And what is right is based on what is right in GOD’s SIGHT!

    As believers, we have to make decisions about what actions to take.  Even before deciding to make the decision, we have to decide what will guide our decision-making.  In Judges 21:25 we read that “every man did that which was right in his own eyes.”  On the other hand, Jesus said in John 14:15 “If you love Me, keep My commandments.”  Is your decision-making guided by what is right in your sight or what is right in God’s sight?  Does SELF guide or does the SAVIOR guide your decision-making? 

    In case you are more prone to allowing SELF to guide your decision-making Proverbs 14:12 and Proverbs 16:25 give the following warning saying, “There is a way that seems right to a man, But its end is the way of death.”  You need to be very careful about doing what is RIGHT in your SIGHT!

    Another warning I would place before you is to be CAREFUL in CHANGING what is RIGHT in the SIGHT OF GOD to being wrong and making what God says is WRONG to now be RIGHT.  Isaiah 5:20 says, “Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter! 21  Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes, and shrewd in their own sight!”  

    Friends we are not smarter than God.  He knows WHAT IS BEST! He knows what is GOOD and what is GOOD for us!  He knows what is RIGHT!  

    Commit to LEARNING the Word and LIVING in OBEDIENCE to the Word!  Obeying God’s requirements brings God’s rewards. Blessings follow obedience! Blessings come your way and not just to you but to your children! Your obedience today will impact far more than you! Remember Proverbs 20:7. It says, “The righteous man walks in his integrity; His children are blessed after him.”  

    Verse to DATE the Word on December 28 (12/28) is Deuteronomy 12:28. It says, “Observe and obey all these words which I command you, that it may go well with you and your children after you forever, when you do what is good and right in the sight of the LORD your God.  

    Observe and obey God’s Word for there is no other way to live.

  • Verse to DATE the Word on November 19 (11/19) is November 11:19

    You shall teach them to your children, speaking of them when you sit in your house, when you walk by the way, when you lie down, and when you rise up.” – Deuteronomy 11:19
    The T in PARENT means TEACHER

    Looking at Deuteronomy 11:19 we need to immediately know that the “them” refers to God’s Word from verse 18.  Deuteronomy 11:19 gives instructions to PARENTS to INSTRUCT their children and gives parents a variety of ways to INSTRUCT children. The BIBLE teaches that PARENTS are to be TEACHING the WORD of GOD to their CHILDREN. 

    So often we think of a place to teach our children but it is a PERSON(s) that is to teach our children and the first person with the top responsibility of teaching God’s Word to their children is the PARENTS of the children.   

    For some of you, this is INCREDIBLY challenging.  It was for me.  It is one thing to be a learner and a whole different thing to be a teacher.  I had to learn to teach.  One of the lessons I learned for teaching was that I was to be learning not just for myself but for my children.  This meant that during my quiet time, I was reading for me and for them.  This meant that when listening to a sermon I was listening for me and for them. There would be numerous times I would read or hear something that I knew the Holy Spirit was impressing me to share with my children.  

    Another big lesson for me was to be watching for as well as creating TEACHABLE MOMENTS in order to pour into my children Biblical truth.  Teachable moments arise when questions come up.  Be ever so careful when your child is curious and asking questions about spiritual things.  Don’t quench that curiosity.  Give answers to their question or find the answers. As a matter of fact, fuel curiosity by asking questions. Jesus not only answered questions from the disciples He Himself would ask questions! 

    As you look at the instructions from Deuteronomy 11:19, it really does give some very practical “suggestions” for teaching your children.  There is the time sitting in your house which today may be when you are eating a meal. There is the time when you are walking which today would be driving.  Then there is when you lie down and when you rise up.  I have a friend who likes to say BIBLE BEFORE BED and BIBLE BEFORE BREAKFAST. Friends, end each day with a Bible verse and start each day with a Bible verse.  It could be the same one for a week. It could be a different one for each day.  What is important is you are teaching some of God’s Word to your children!

    Parents (and grandparents) may I ask what is the last Biblical truth you taught one of your children? How are you applying the teaching of Deuteronomy 6 and Deuteronomy 11:19 to TEACH your children?

    It takes WORK and TIME to be a TEACHER!  (Just ask any who does it for a living.) God has entrusted you with children.  You are to TRAIN THEM UP in the way they should live (Prov. 22:6)!  Be diligent to do the hard work and MAKE the time to teach. Look back at Deuteronomy 11:18 as it gives ideas for keeping God’s Word before your eyes AND (listen) your children’s eyes!

    Verse to DATE the Word on November 19 (11/19) is Deuteronomy 11:19. It says, “You shall teach them to your children, speaking of them when you sit in your house, when you walk by the way, when you lie down, and when you rise up.”

  • Verse to DATE the Word on November 18 (11/18) is Deuteronomy 11:18

    “Therefore you shall lay up these words of mine in your heart and 
    in your soul, and bind them as a sign on your hand, and they
    shall be as frontlets between your eyes.” – Deuteronomy 11:18
    KEEPING GOD’S WORD VISIBLE for VIABILITY

    In order to obey the instructions of God’s Word we are given instructions for PLACING God’s Word so that it can be easily seen, remembered, and applied. As one reads and hears God’s Word, we are to lay it up or “hide” God’s Word in our hearts.   David said in Psalm 119:11 that he had hidden God’s Word in his heart so that he might not sin against God.  Some versions translate “hidden” for TREASURE. Solomon writes in Proverbs 7:1 that his son should “keep his words, And TREASURE his commands within him.”

    One of the most important spiritual disciplines is memorizing God’s Word.  We read and hear it, but we also must memorize it so we can have immediate recall as we face decisions, especially when we face temptations.  

    Are you memorizing God’s Word?  Do you have a plan to memorize a verse a week?

    To help with the memorization we are instructed to bind them on your hand and put them in places where they can be seen.   For us today that means having them on a note card or on your phone in notes.  It means placing verses in frames and hanging them on walls.  It means placing a verse on your refrigerator or on a mirror in the bathroom.  I challenge you to be creative in placing key verses in places where you can easily see to be reminded of what God’s Word says!   

    Not only should your heart be filled with Scripture, but have your home filled with Scripture to see and refresh your mind as you see them. For me, it seems that as I keep God’s Word visible it helps to make it more viable!  

    Take a little inventory based on Deuteronomy 11:18. How much of God’s Word is hidden in your heart?  Look around your house and see how much of God’s Word you see.  What about where you work?  You should have Scriptures on your desk and maybe on your walls.  Inventory and put Deuteronomy 11:18 into practice. 

    Verse to DATE the Word on November 18 (11/18) is Deuteronomy 11:18. Deuteronomy 11:18 says, “Therefore you shall lay up these words of mine in your heart and in your soul, and bind them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes.”

  • Verse to DATE the Word on November 16 (11/16) is Deuteronomy 11:16

    Take heed to yourselves, lest your heart be deceived, and you turn aside 
    and serve other gods and worship them,” – Deuteronomy 11:16
    Guard your HEART!

    “TAKE HEED” is a warning used in the Bible 50 plus times with Jesus using TAKE HEED fifteen (15) times. Several times the emphasis of the warning is to NOT BE DECEIVED, especially being deceived into who or what should really be worshipped. Instead of trusting the One and only true God, we find ourselves deceived into placing trust in false gods. These false gods are usually tangible and for a time seem to be able to meet our immediate needs. We make idols/false gods of money or pleasure or fame or people or even of ourselves. We turn from the true to the false. Being deceived we pour energy into serving these false gods. Being deceived we will soon experience great disappointment for they never satisfy the true longing of our hearts!

    Regarding experiencing great disappointment, the Psalmist’s words come to mind from Psalm 115.  Starting in verse 4, “Their idols are silver and gold, the work of men’s hands. 5 They have mouths, but they do not speak; Eyes they have, but they do not see; 6 They have ears, but they do not hear; Noses they have, but they do not smell; 7 They have hands, but they do not handle; Feet they have, but they do not walk; Nor do they mutter through their throat. 8 Those who make them are like them; So is everyone who trusts in them.” 

    The idol looks SO REAL, but it is completely DEAD!  What a sad state of affairs for one who makes his own idols.  

    Pause for just a second and compare Deuteronomy 6:4-5 with what you just read,
    Deut. 6:4 “Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God, the LORD is one! 5 “You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength.”

    With our God, we have a RELATIONSHIP!  We have a living, loving relationship. He loves us! We love Him! And yes, we love Him because He first loved us.  

    Friend, please heed Deuteronomy 11:16 and “Take heed to yourselves, lest your heart be deceived, and you turn aside and serve other gods and worship them,”  Hear the truth of Scripture that those false idols, false gods DO NOT LOVE YOU and CANNOT LOVE YOU!  

    Honest assessment: Are you worshipping the living God or dead idols?  Are you worshipping the God who created and redeemed you or are you worshipping a god you have created that can do nothing for you?

    Verse to DATE the Word on November 16 (11/16) is Deuteronomy 11:16.  It says, “Take heed to yourselves, lest your heart be deceived, and you turn aside and serve other gods and worship them,”

  • Verse to DATE the Word on November 12 (11/12) is Deuteronomy 11:12

    “A land for which the LORD your God cares; the eyes of the LORD your God are always on it, from the beginning of the year to the very end of the year.” – Deuteronomy 11:12
    STANDING ON THE PROMISES of GOD

    Deuteronomy 11 talks about the “PROMISED LAND.” Starting at verse 8 one reads, “Therefore you shall keep every commandment which I command you today, that you may be strong, and go in and POSSESS the LAND which you cross over to possess, 9 “and that you may prolong your days in the land which the LORD PROMISED to give your fathers, to them and their descendants, ‘a land flowing with MILK and HONEY.’ 10 “For the land which you go to possess is not like the land of Egypt from which you have come, where you sowed your seed and watered it by foot, as a vegetable garden; 11 “BUT the land which you cross over to possess is a land of hills and valleys, which drinks water from the RAIN of HEAVEN, 12 “a land for which the LORD your God cares; the eyes of the LORD your God are always on it, from the beginning of the year to the very end of the year.”

    As the passage about possessing the promised land concluded one should have noticed starting at verse 10 that something is VERY DIFFERENT about this land.  To highlight the difference let me ask and answer the question why was the Promised Land called the Promised Land? 
    There are TWO basic reasons:
    1. because it was a land God promised.  
    2. It was a land where the people would have to believe the promises of God. This is what makes it so DIFFERENT!   God’s people would have to TRUST Him to PROVIDE as He said He would. This land would be different because IT NEEDED RAIN. Those living there would have to DEPEND on GOD.

    The Promised Land did not make the people of God independent of Him BUT more dependent on Him. 

    Pause to recall the Lord’s prayer where one is to ask God to PROVIDE DAILY BREAD!  It is a prayer of DEPENDENCE!

    As believers God wants us to grow in dependence on Him, to stand more firmly on the promises of God! 

    Just as He had His eye on the land, He has His eye on you.  Do you have your eyes on Him?  Are you living DEPENDENT on God?  Are you standing daily on His promises that He is always with you to guide you, lead you, provide for you, and protect you?  

    Read it again: The promised land did not make the people of God independent of Him but more dependent on Him.

  • Verse to DATE the Word on October 21 (10/21) is Deuteronomy 10:21

    He is your praise, and He is your God, who has done for you these great and 
    awesome things which your eyes have seen.” – Deuteronomy 10:21
    Our ALMIGHTY GOD is GREAT and AWESOME, WORTHY OF PRAISE

    In learning WHO our God is the Bible tells us many times that our God is the GREAT and AWESOME God.
    Deuteronomy 7:21 says, “For the LORD your God, the great and awesome God, is among you.
    Deuteronomy 10:17 says, “For the LORD your God is God of gods and Lord of lords, the great God, mighty and awesome.  
    Nehemiah 1:5 says, “I pray, LORD God of heaven, O great and awesome God.  
    Nehemiah 4:14 has Nehemiah telling the people to remember the Lord, great and awesome. 
    Psalm 47:2 tells us, “The LORD Most High is awesome; He is a great King over all the earth.”

    In learning WHAT our God does the Bible tells us that our God DOES GREAT and AWESOME things. While being GREAT He does GREAT things!  While being AWESOME He does AWESOME things!!
    Psalm 66:5 says, “Come and see the works of God; He is awesome in His doing toward the sons of men.” Ps 145:6 says, “Men shall speak of the might of Your awesome acts,”
    Deuteronomy 11:7 “But your eyes have seen every GREAT act of the LORD which He did.

    While revealing to us WHO GOD IS and WHAT GOD DOES we also learn how God wishes for us to RESPOND to Him.  In Deuteronomy 10:20 we are called on to fear Him and serve Him and honor Him. Now in verse 21, we are to PRAISE Him.  The praise that is due Him is because we are able to KNOW Him, know Him personally as He is OUR God, and know WHO He is (GREAT and AWESOME) and WHAT He has done (GREAT AND AWESOME!)

    From Deuteronomy 10:21 ponder how awesome God is and ponder on the awesome acts He has done for you – starting with providing salvation for your soul! 
    Ponder the greatness of God.  I think you will come to agree with Psalm 145:3, which says,  “Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised, and his greatness is unsearchable”

    How does considering the greatness and awesomeness of God impact your adoration, praise, and worship of the one true God – our Creator and our Redeemer?

    “And now, Israel, what does the LORD your God require of you, but to fear the LORD 
    your God, to walk in all His ways and to love Him, to serve the LORD your God with
    all your heart and with all your soul.” – Deuteronomy 10:12
    God’s EXPECTATIONS ARE CLEARLY DEFINED

    What is God expecting from His people? Every now and then we get a summation of what God is expecting of His people from just one verse and Deuteronomy 10:12 is one of those verses. The Lord, who loves and redeems His people, looks for His people to respond back to Him with certain actions.  Yes, He has certain expectations of His people.  Let us notice the clearly defined expectations from Deuteronomy 10:12.

    First, we are to have a REVERENCE for Him. The fear of the Lord is the starting point. The fear of the Lord is not being afraid of God but standing in AWE of God. It acknowledges that He is the Creator and that He is our authority.

    Reverence always leads to OBEDIENCE. To walk in His ways is to obey His commandments. His commandments are for our good. As John writes in 1 John 5:3 His commandments are not burdensome. “For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments. And His commandments are not burdensome.”

    God has been so good in pointing out what is right and wrong.  Because of His goodness in providing commands, we respond with LOVE, loving Him as He truly loves us.

    And then we gladly SERVE Him!  There is within our hearts and minds a what would you have me to do, Lord?  

    Do you fear the Lord – Do you have reverence and respect for Him?
    Do you walk according to His directives – obeying His commands?
    Do you love the Lord – having a heart for the heart of God?
    Do you serve the Lord – serving Him and others as His hands?

    Ultimately, we ask DO YOU KNOW THE LORD? Is He your Savior? Living for Him starts with being born again!

    Verse to DATE the Word on October 12 (10/12) is Deuteronomy 10:12. It says, “And now, Israel, what does the LORD your God require of you, but to fear the LORD your God, to walk in all His ways and to love Him, to serve the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul.”

  • Verse to DATE the Word on August 6 (8/6) is Deuteronomy 8:6

    “Therefore you shall keep the commandments of the LORD your God, to walk in His ways and to fear Him.” – Deuteronomy 8:6
    The Foundational Pieces 

    As Moses is preparing God’s people to go into the Promise Land he tells them in Deuteronomy 8:1 that “Every commandment which I command you today you must be careful to observe, that you may live and multiply, and go in and possess the land of which the LORD swore to your fathers.”  Our verse to DATE continues this thought of verse 1 by stating clearly that they are to keep the commandments of the LORD your God, to walk in His ways, and to fear Him.”

    Deuteronomy 8:6 gives us three words that will be foundational for living life according to how God desires.  The three words are KEEP, WALK, and FEAR. 

    We are to KEEP or OBEY His commandments.  His commandments are not burdensome (I John 5:3) and we know that we know Him (I John 2:3) “if we keep His commandments.”
    1 John 2:4 says that “He who says, “I know Him,” and does not keep His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.”  

    We are to WALK, WALKING IN HIS WAYS.  The idea of the word “walk” in both OT And NT is how one LIVES.  We are to LIVE according to GOD’S WAYS!   God Himself pleads in Psalm 81:13 saying, “Oh, that My people would listen to Me, that Israel would walk in My ways!”  John writes that “He who says he abides in Him ought himself also to walk just as He walked.” (1 John 2:6) The NLT says it this way:  “Those who say they live in God should live their lives as Jesus did.”

    David gives us a great prayer for learning how to walk in His ways.  Psalms 143:8 says, “Cause me to hear Your lovingkindness in the morning, for in You do I trust; Cause me to know the way in which I should walk, for I lift up my soul to You.”  Psalm 143:8 is a prayer of asking God to help me know His WORD so I can know His WAYS so I can know how to WALK, to walk like Jesus!

    We are to KEEP His commandments and we are to WALK in HIs WAYS, and we are to FEAR HIM!  To fear Him is not to be AFRAID where we cower but rather it is to be in AWE where we adore Him and hold Him in the highest of RESPECT and REVERENCE!   

    Keeping God’s commandments and walking in His ways and fearing Him opens all types of blessings to flow into your life!  Psalm 128:1 says, “Blessed is everyone that fears the LORD; that walks in His ways.

    Verse to DATE the Word on August 6 (8/6) is Deuteronomy 8:6. It says, “Therefore you shall keep the commandments of the LORD your God, to walk in His ways and to fear Him.”

  • Verse to DATE the Word on July 21 (7/21) is Deuteronomy 7:21

    “You shall not be terrified of them; for the LORD your God, the great 
    and awesome God, is among you.” – Deuteronomy 7:21
    OUR GOD IS A GREAT AND AWESOME GOD!! 

    GREAT and AWESOME are two extraordinary descriptive words for our God. Here they are used to reveal to His people what He can do as they face enemies as they go into the Promised Land. Before them would be numerous enemies with great numbers who were very powerful and would easily strike fear into their hearts.  Because of this God lets them know WHO WOULD BE WITH THEM!  Because of WHO He was and what He could do His people would not need to be afraid of anyone or anything.  

    Interestingly these words are used by Nehemiah as he is leading God’s people to rebuild the wall and they are facing enemies. In Nehemiah 4:14 it says Nehemiah “looked and arose and said to the nobles and to the officials and to the rest of the people, “Do not be afraid of them. Remember the Lord, who is great and awesome, and fight for your brothers, your sons, your daughters, your wives, and your homes.” 

    The challenge to God’s people was very personal to Nehemiah as he himself had remembered that God was great and awesome when he began praying about needing God to rebuild Jerusalem. As he prayed he acknowledged God as great and awesome. (Nehemiah 1:5 And I said, “O LORD God of heaven, the great and awesome.”)  Knowing WHO God was and what God could do strengthened Nehemiah’s faith to trust God to do the miraculous. 

    It is ESSENTIAL for you to be GROWING IN KNOWLEDGE of who God is as it impacts how you think about God!! You must know that:

    from the house of slavery, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt.” – Deuteronomy 7:8
    Our GOD so LOVES US

    Why did God do all that He did for Israel when they were slaves in Egypt?  That is the question being answered in Deuteronomy 7:8. And the answer is: BECAUSE THE LORD LOVES THEM!   Because the Lord LOVED Israel He worked on their behalf and He redeemed them.  Yes, He had made promises to their fathers and was keeping those promises, but the motivation of motivations was His LOVE for them.

    John 15:13 “Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends.”
    John 15:9  “As the Father loved Me, I also have loved you; abide in My love.”
    John 15:12  “This is My commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you.”
