God is our Joy and Strength-Deuteronomy 30
Read Deuteronomy 30:19-20
Today’s Truth
These verses are some of the most well-known verses in the Book of Deuteronomy and for good reason. What an invitation from God through Moses, I call heaven and earth to witness against you today. I’ve set before your life and death, blessing and curse. And yes, this was a specific context here. As God’s people prepare to enter into the promise land, and they had a choice to make. The reality is you and I have the same choice to make, God sets before you and me, life and death, blessing and curse. And he by his grace calls us, urges us, an even greater way than what we read about here in the Old Testament, by his spirit empowers us to choose life. That we might live, loving the Lord, your God.
Discussion Questions
