Daily Bible Reading – August 2021: God’s Word of PromiseSample
August 13
Introduction
Moses reminds the Israelites of God’s greatness and that they will be blessed by obeying God’s laws. He instructs the people to teach God’s laws to their children.
Today’s Scripture Reading
Deuteronomy 11:1-32
Today’s Key Verse: Deuteronomy 11:13b
[Moses said:] “Love the LORD your God and serve him with all your heart.”
Reflect
What does Moses tell the people to remember (verses 1-7)? In what ways will the people be blessed? What are the consequences of disobedience? Moses reminds the people that God’s laws are to be taught to their children (verse 19). Within your community of faith or family, how are God’s teachings passed on to succeeding generations?
Pray
God of every generation, remind me daily of your laws and to cherish them always. Help me to live according to your teachings and to serve you with all my heart so that others may learn of your love and faithfulness. Amen.
