Day 80: Deuteronomy 30-31

Today on Meditating the Word, Israel is promised Prosperity after turning to the Lord, the offer of Life or Death is set before them; Joshua is chosen to succeed Moses, the Public Reading of the Law, and Israel's Rebellion is Predicted.
This is Day 80. Today we are reading Deuteronomy 30-31
----
Father God, it would be easy for us to look at the Children of Israel and ask how could they rebel against you time and time again, but we know that scripture was written, this history was recorded, to serve as a mirror for us. We look at their rebellion, and we find ourselves there. Yet, you are merciful. You were merciful to them, and you are merciful to us today. Your mercies are new every morning, and our sins have been forgiven -- even the ones we haven't committed yet. Help us to stay true to your Word, Father. Help us to turn away from anything that would influence us to disobey you. Make us strong and courageous to follow you. In Jesus' name we pray,  Amen.

----
Father God, thank you for Jesus. Over and over again we see in scripture, and in our own lives, that we are completely unable to keep your commandments. We try, and we fail. So you sent your Son, who lived a life without sin, and offered himself as the Passover Lamb for us. Thank you that we live under grace and that the blessings of the covenant of Abraham are ours through faith. Thank you that we are blessed in the city and blessed in the field; blessed coming in and blessed going out; and that everything we set our hands to is blessed. May all that we do bring glory to your name. Amen.

You ask us to look out for each other, and not to turn away or try to avoid an opportunity to lend a helping hand. And you expect us to keep our word, just as your Word is forever settled in heaven. Your laws are just, because they are based in love and respect. Help us to love each other as you have loved us. Amen.

We live in the world, but are not of the world. Give us discernment, Father, so we are not deceived and led astray. May we hear your voice, and do what is right in your eyes. In Jesus' name we pray.  Amen.
