Today's Scripture *November 2, 2009*
 
Deuteronomy 2: 14-15
"Thirty-eight years passed from the time we first left Kadesh-barnea
until we finally crossed the Zered Brook! By then, all the men old enough
to fight in battle had died in the wilderness, as the Lord had vowed would
happen.  The Lord struck them down until they had all been eliminated from
the community.
 
Israel did not have to spend 40 years on the way to the Promised Land.
God sentenced them to wilderness wanderings because they rejected His love,
rebelled against His authority, ignored His commands for right living, and
willfully broke their end of the agreement made in Exodus 24: 3-8 Then
Moses went down to the people and repeated all the instructions and
regulations the Lord had given him. All the people answered with one voice,
"We will do everything the Lord has commanded." Then Moses carefully wrote
down all the Lord's instructions. Early the next morning Moses got up and
built an altar at the foot of the mountain. He also set up twelve pillars,
one for each of the twelve tribes of Israel. Then he sent some of the young
Israelite men to present burnt offerings and to sacrifice bulls as peace
offerings to the Lord. Moses drained half the blood from these animals into
basins. The other half he splattered against the altar. Then he took the
 Book of the Covenant and read it aloud to the people. Again they all
responded, "We will do everything the Lord has commanded. We will obey."
Then Moses took the blood from the basins and splattered it over the
people, declaring, "Look, this blood confirms the covenant the Lord has
made with you in giving you these instructions." In short, they disobeyed
God.
We often make life's journey more difficult than necessary by
disobedience. Accept God's love, lead and follow His commands in the Bible,
and make a promise to stick with God whatever your situation. You will find
that your life will be less complicated and more rewarding.
 
God, we thank You and praise You for Your Word to us.
Help us and lead us as we seek to understand all that You have commanded
of us.
And Lord, no matter what trial we go through, we dedicate to be faithful
to You. 
To call upon Your Mighty Name in times of troubles and in times of great
joy.
We praise You for Who You are and all that You have and have yet to do.
In the Matchless Name of Jesus Christ, Amen..
 
Have a blessed week and a terrific start to November!
Bless you,
April
