Reading through the Bible gives us a daily way to say "Here am I" to God and His thoughts for us that day. Taking even just 5 minutes in the morning to read through part of the section that day may prove to be just what you need!
Observations from Deuteronomy
· God loves us more than we love ourselves. He wants to bless. He asks us to trust Him, and He will provide for all of our needs. And what do we do? So many times, like the Israelites, we don’t listen. We are arrogant, stiff-necked, and selfish.
· The Israelites still had to go in and take the land of Canaan…God didn’t flush them out automatically. They are shepherds, nomads. And then God says, “Go to war against warriors!” The world saw this war as evil, but it was a command of God. You have to shut down all of your sensitivities to what you think is “right and wrong,” and just obey. The only right thing is to obey.
