DAY 4 OF 12

Great is Thy Faithfulness

Not because of your righteousness or the uprightness of your heart are you going in to possess their land, but because of the wickedness of these nations the Lord your God is driving them out from before you, and that he may confirm the word that the Lord swore to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.
Deuteronomy 9:5 (ESV)

Near the end of their wandering in the wilderness for 40 years, the new generation of Israelites was about to enter the Promised Land and Moses reminded them it was God’s faithfulness that they would possess the Promised Land that their fathers had forfeited due to their rebellion. Yet during the whole time, while they were wandering in the wilderness, God journeyed with them and provided manna and meat to feed them. 

The heart of God is always to bless us and not to harm us, to give us hope and a future. We don’t have to make God love us because He always does. We don’t need to beg for His favor because He has already given us Jesus. How will He not with Him graciously give us all things? However, the appropriation of God’s blessings is by faith and obedience. We can have faith in our Lord Jesus who has accomplished all things and fulfilled all laws for us, who is able and willing to redeem all our curses. Obedience to God’s Word and His voice is a response to His love and faithfulness. Know that His ways and thoughts are higher than ours and they are to set us up to be blessed and a blessing.

Prayer: 

Dear Father, we praise You for Your faithfulness that is eternal and Your love that is unfailing. We thank You for giving us the best of heaven and we pray that we will respond to Your love with love and that Jesus will help us to live a life of obedience and be a blessing to the world. Amen.

About this Plan

Through the Bible: Deuteronomy

Deuteronomy is the final heart-pouring sermon of the dying Moses to the second generation of the Israelites, retelling the salvation history of their forefathers and the ways of life through God’s words as they enter into the Promised Land. The book ends with Moses calling readers for a decision: curse and death by disobedience or blessing and life by loving the Lord. Likewise, which will you choose?
