Read: Deut. 30-31
Moses knew that the people were rebellious in nature and that when he died they would be worse. He also saw the generation in the last days and how rebellious they would be but he also saw a remnant of people who would repent and want to come back to the Lord. To these people he said God would forgive them and bring them back to the land. All the curses that had been on them would transfer to their enemies. Then they would be blessed.
Moses put the commandment in their ears. He put it to music and taught it to all the people so they would never forget it. God said he did not hide his commandments but put them in their hearts. That is why we instinctively know what is wrong and right. Moses made it clear to them that their destiny was in their own hand and they chose if they walked in God’s blessings or his curses.
Moses commissioned Joshua to be their leader and commanded him to be strong and courageous because it was God who would go before them.
Moses reminded them that the law would be read every 7 years at the feast of tabernacle when all Israel was to come together at one place. This was a picture of the last judgment - the Great White Throne Judgment. At that time at the end of the ages, we will all come together and the books will be opened and judgment will be done according to obedience to the Word.
God has also put our destiny in our hands. God has great things planned for each of His children but it is our choice whether we choose to walk in them. If we do we will be extremely blessed. If we don’t, we will be miserable.
Lord, give us repentant hearts that we might live in your blessings and fulfill Your destiny for our lives.
