| Deuteronomy 1 |
| 8/19/2007 |
| Why do we have Moses giving a pep talk to leaders
still standing on the outside of the land after
nearly 40 years of wandering? Fear. The people asked
the wrong questions—questions you and I ought to be
evaluating lest we fall prey to the same fears.
Consider the God-esteeming questions you ought to ask
when facing new obstacles. |

| 8/26/2007 |
| We may differ in the way we apply the commandments of
God in these days since the temple system was
destroyed and the Gentiles have been gathered in
along with the Jews to be the covenant people of God.
We are not, however, given the option to ignore God's
word. Here are some concrete applications that will
demonstrate your commitment to obeying our great God. |

| Loving God makes you want to teach others about him.
Loving God makes you want to please him. Loving God
makes you want to study soteriology. |

| Deuteronomy 8:1-20 |
| 9/16/2007 |
| Every good gift is from God, whether or not he uses
human means. This is why humility is the order of the
day. God can still give you bread on the ground, but
it's okay to bake bread if you have the ingredients.
God can still bring immediate healing when we pray,
but he can also use the skill of a doctor. God can
still part the Red Sea, but it is not faithless to
build bridges. God can take care of widows with
small children, but you should still buy life
insurance. |
When Wrath Is Right |
|
| Deuteronomy 13:1-18 |
| 10/14/2007 |
| Some of the greatest sources of negative persuasion
in our lives are those that entertain us, provide
companionship or offer economic benefit. It's not
easy to reject something like that out of a love for
your Lord. Consider each of the three categories. |

| 10/21/2007 |
| Human rulers will always fail us. That does not
mean, however, that God has neglected to tell us how
to live under human rule—even flawed human rule.
When we apply this text outside of Israel under an
anointed king or appointed judge, we have to consider
the universal applications. |
A Prophet Like Moses |

| Deuteronomy 18:1-22 |
| 10/28/2007 |
| The age-old problem of a faulty "epistemology" (where
we go to find Truth) goes back to the Garden of
Eden. Satan has always sought to get people to doubt
God's word and to crave more revelation than God has
chosen to give. Satan said to Eve, "Indeed, has God
said…” The deception began there and continues to
this day. Consider what Moses says will keep you
from being deceived. |

| Because God designed marriage to advertise his glory,
his commands teach us what makes a successful marriage.
Here are three reasons why you should fight for the
permanence of marriage. |

| Deuteronomy 27-28 |
| 11/11/2007 |
| When God made a covenant with Israel, the covenant
terms were spelled out in Torah. As a perpetual
reminder of those terms, Moses commanded the people to
engrave the words of Torah on stones at a designated
location in the Promised Land. We should see what a
delight it is to serve under this Suzerain. |

Consider the only legitimate internal and external
responses to God's commandments. |

| The way people respond to hard times often reveals
the activity of their minds during the good times of
life. The way you spend it is the way you end it.
Moses invites us in this chapter to consider how
great is this God of Moses. Here is what this
knowledge of God demands of you. |
