What does it say?
Moses summoned the children of Israel and reviewed the Ten Commandments given by God. He again challenged the children of Israel to follow God’s laws.
What does it mean?
Reviewing each commandment, Moses wanted to ensure that the people didn’t forget the relationship God had established with them. The fact that these former slaves of Egypt were about to enter the Promised Land was proof of God’s faithfulness to His people. He had gone before and behind them every single day, leading and guiding them in the way to go. Now God desired that same faithfulness from the people so they would experience the best life possible. By learning and carefully following God’s specific instructions on how to relate to Him and how to interact with others, the children of Israel would prosper and prolong their days.
How should I respond?
Learning is an ongoing process whether you’re in the classroom, at home, or at work. Each day presents new opportunities to apply God’s truth as you face difficult situations and as you interact with others. Life experiences are a great teaching tool because you gain insight on what works and what doesn’t. What lessons has God been teaching you recently? In what ways has your relationship with God grown through your victories and struggles? God is faithful, and He will guide you each step of the way if you listen for His voice and obey His commands.
