Hello, and welcome
to His Words are Life.
00:00:17.42\00:00:19.03
I'm Kelly Mowrer and
thank you for joining with me,
00:00:19.06\00:00:21.38
to read the
Word of God together.
00:00:21.41\00:00:22.88
David wrote in the Psalms,
Bless the Lord, O my soul.
00:00:22.91\00:00:26.50
and forget not
all of His Benefits.
00:00:26.53\00:00:28.18
And when we were last together,
Moses had gathered Israelites
00:00:28.21\00:00:31.97
together to review with
him the benefits of the Lord
00:00:32.00\00:00:35.02
how he had delivered them from
Egypt, and brought them safely
00:00:35.05\00:00:37.39
to the promised land.
Before we pick up that story
00:00:37.42\00:00:40.61
in Deuteronomy
today, let's pray together.
00:00:40.64\00:00:42.36
Dear Jesus, thank you
for preserving this record
00:00:42.39\00:00:46.80
for us, for our encouragement
today. May we learn from
00:00:46.83\00:00:52.03
the past that you are to be
obeyed and trusted implicitly;
00:00:52.06\00:00:56.34
that you will bring us
safely at last to the future
00:00:56.38\00:00:59.60
promise that you have for us.
Please be with us now as we read
00:00:59.63\00:01:02.54
We love you so much and
thank you for loving us. Amen
00:01:02.57\00:01:05.61
We're picking up the
story of Moses, reviewing with
00:01:05.64\00:01:10.12
the Israelites, God's
instructions and victories and
00:01:10.15\00:01:13.87
their story. In the book
of Deuteronomy, chapter 4
00:01:13.90\00:01:17.44
and verse 35. This is
the King James Version.
00:01:17.47\00:01:20.64
Unto thee, it was
shewed, that thou mightest know
00:01:20.67\00:01:26.19
that the Lord, He is God.
There is none else beside Him.
00:01:26.22\00:01:30.72
Out of heaven he made thee
to hear his voice, that he might
00:01:30.75\00:01:34.63
instruct thee: and upon earth
he shewed thee his great fire;
00:01:34.66\00:01:38.79
and thou heardest his words
out of the midst of the fire.
00:01:38.82\00:01:41.83
And because he loved thy fathers
therefore he chose their seed
00:01:41.86\00:01:46.21
after them and brought thee
out in his sight with his mighty
00:01:46.24\00:01:49.79
power out of Egypt; to drive
out nations from before thee
00:01:49.82\00:01:53.85
greater and mightier than
thou art, to bring thee in,
00:01:53.88\00:01:57.19
to give thee their land for an
inheritance, as it is this day.
00:01:57.22\00:02:00.97
Know therefore this day,
and consider it in thine heart,
00:02:01.00\00:02:06.05
that the Lord he is
God in heaven above,
00:02:06.08\00:02:09.79
and upon the earth
beneath: there is none else.
00:02:09.82\00:02:12.89
Thou shalt keep therefore his
statutes, and his commandments,
00:02:12.92\00:02:17.03
which I command thee this day,
that it may go well with thee,
00:02:17.06\00:02:20.14
and with thy children after thee
and that thou mayest prolong
00:02:20.17\00:02:24.31
thy days upon the earth, which
the Lord thy God giveth thee,
00:02:24.34\00:02:27.20
forever. Then Moses severed
3 cities on this side Jordan
00:02:27.23\00:02:32.60
toward the sun rising; That
the slayer might flee thither,
00:02:32.63\00:02:36.07
which should kill his neighbor
unawares, and hated him not
00:02:36.10\00:02:39.49
in times past; and that fleeing
unto one of these cities,
00:02:39.52\00:02:43.81
he might live: Namely
Bezer in the wilderness,
00:02:43.84\00:02:48.20
in the plain
country, of the Reubenites;
00:02:48.23\00:02:50.58
and Ramoth in
Gilead, of the Gadites;
00:02:50.61\00:02:54.09
and Golan in
Bashan, of the Manassites.
00:02:54.12\00:02:58.02
And this is the law which
Moses set before the children of
00:02:58.05\00:03:01.74
Israel: These are the
testimonies, and the statutes
00:03:01.77\00:03:04.67
and the judgments, which
Moses spake unto the children
00:03:04.70\00:03:07.14
of Israel, after they
came forth out of Egypt,
00:03:07.17\00:03:09.85
on this side Jordan, in the
valley over against Beth-peor.
00:03:09.88\00:03:14.11
in the land of
Sihon, king of the Amorites,
00:03:14.14\00:03:16.66
who dwelt at Heshbon, whom
Moses and the children of Israel
00:03:16.69\00:03:20.18
smote, after they were
come forth out of Egypt:
00:03:20.21\00:03:23.14
And they possessed his
land, and the land of Og,
00:03:23.17\00:03:26.66
king of Bashan, two
Kings of the Amorites,
00:03:26.69\00:03:29.13
which were on this side
Jordan toward the sunrising;
00:03:29.16\00:03:31.75
from Aroer, which is by
the bank of the river Arnon,
00:03:31.78\00:03:35.55
even unto mount Sion, which
is Hermon, and all the plain
00:03:35.58\00:03:39.86
on this side Jordan eastward,
even unto the sea of the plain,
00:03:39.89\00:03:43.15
under the springs of
Pisgah. We're continuing now in
00:03:43.18\00:03:47.52
Deuteronomy, chapter 5, an
this is the King James Version.
00:03:47.55\00:03:50.34
And Moses called all Israel, and
said unto them, Hear, O Israel,
00:03:50.37\00:03:56.58
the statutes and Judgments which
I speak in your ears this day,
00:03:56.61\00:04:00.15
that ye may learn
them, and keep, and do them.
00:04:00.18\00:04:04.39
The Lord our God made a
covenant with us in Horeb.
00:04:04.42\00:04:08.04
The Lord our God made not this
covenant with our fathers, but
00:04:08.07\00:04:11.28
with us, even us, who are
all of us here alive this day.
00:04:11.31\00:04:16.09
The Lord talked with you
face to face in the mount
00:04:16.12\00:04:19.28
out of the midst of the
fire, (I stood between the Lord
00:04:19.31\00:04:23.30
and you at that time, to
shew you the word of the Lord:
00:04:23.33\00:04:25.75
for ye were afraid by reason of
the fire, and went not up into
00:04:25.78\00:04:30.55
the mount;) saying,
I am the Lord thy God,
00:04:30.58\00:04:34.82
which brought thee out of the
land of Egypt, from the house
00:04:34.85\00:04:37.75
of bondage. Thou shalt
have none other gods before me.
00:04:37.78\00:04:41.24
Thou shalt not make thee any
graven image, or any likeness
00:04:41.27\00:04:45.06
of any thing that is in heaven
above or that is in the earth
00:04:45.09\00:04:48.67
beneath, or that is in
the waters beneath the earth:
00:04:48.70\00:04:51.21
Thou shalt not bow down thyself
unto them, nor serve them:
00:04:51.24\00:04:55.05
for I the Lord thy
God am a jealous God,
00:04:55.08\00:04:58.20
visiting the iniquity of
the fathers upon the children
00:04:58.23\00:05:01.41
unto the third and fourth
generation of them that hate me,
00:05:01.44\00:05:04.27
and shewing mercy unto thousands
of them that love me and keep my
00:05:04.30\00:05:09.12
commandments. Thou shalt
not take the name of the Lord
00:05:09.15\00:05:12.55
thy God in vain: for the
Lord will not hold him guiltless
00:05:12.58\00:05:15.63
that taketh his name in
vain. Keep the Sabbath day
00:05:15.66\00:05:19.34
to sanctify it, as the Lord
thy God hath commanded thee.
00:05:19.37\00:05:23.05
Six days thou shalt
labour and do all thy work:
00:05:23.08\00:05:25.59
But the 7th day is the
Sabbath of the Lord thy God:
00:05:25.62\00:05:28.50
in it thou shalt not do
any work, thou, nor thy son
00:05:28.53\00:05:32.47
nor thy daughter,
nor thy manservant,
00:05:32.50\00:05:34.90
nor thy maidservant,
nor thine ox, nor thine ass,
00:05:34.93\00:05:38.06
nor any of thy
cattle, nor thy stranger,
00:05:38.09\00:05:40.11
that is within thy
gates; that thy manservant
00:05:40.14\00:05:42.35
and thy maidservant
may rest as well as thou.
00:05:42.38\00:05:44.86
And remember that thou wast
a servant in the land of Egypt,
00:05:44.89\00:05:48.50
and that the Lord thy
God brought the out thence
00:05:48.53\00:05:50.94
through a mighty hand
an by a stretched out arm:
00:05:50.97\00:05:53.80
therefore the Lord thy
God commanded thee to keep
00:05:53.83\00:05:57.29
the Sabbath day. Honour
thy father and thy mother,
00:05:57.32\00:06:00.83
as the Lord thy God
hath commanded thee;
00:06:00.86\00:06:02.67
that thy days may be prolonged,
and that it may go well
00:06:02.70\00:06:05.81
with thee in the land which
the Lord thy God giveth thee.
00:06:05.84\00:06:08.31
Thou shalt not kill. Neither
shalt thou commit adultery.
00:06:08.34\00:06:13.03
Neither shalt thou steal.
Neither shalt thou bear false
00:06:13.06\00:06:17.42
witness against thy neighbor.
Neither shalt thou desire thy
00:06:17.45\00:06:21.37
neighbor's wife, neither shalt
thou covet thy neighbor's house,
00:06:21.40\00:06:24.18
his field, or his manservant,
or his maidservant, his ox,
00:06:24.21\00:06:27.79
or his ass, or
anything that is thy neighbor's.
00:06:27.82\00:06:29.94
These words the Lord spake unto
all your assembly in the mount
00:06:29.97\00:06:34.75
out of the midst of the fire,
of the cloud, and of the thick
00:06:34.78\00:06:37.61
darkness, with a great
voice: and he added no more.
00:06:37.64\00:06:41.35
And he wrote them in two tables
of stone, and delivered the
00:06:41.38\00:06:45.16
unto me. And it came to
pass, when ye heard the voice
00:06:45.19\00:06:48.97
out of the midst of the darkness
00:06:49.00\00:06:50.03
that ye came near unto me, even
all the heads of your tribes,
00:06:52.07\00:06:55.71
and your elders; And ye
said, Behold, the Lord our God
00:06:55.74\00:06:59.81
hath shewed us his glory and
his greatness, and we have heard
00:06:59.84\00:07:02.49
his voice out of the midst of
the fire: we have seen this day
00:07:02.52\00:07:05.99
that God doth talk
with man, and he liveth.
00:07:06.02\00:07:08.49
Now therefore why should we die?
for this great fire will consume
00:07:08.52\00:07:13.84
us if we hear the voice
of the Lord our God any more,
00:07:13.87\00:07:16.61
then we shall die. For who
is there of all flesh, that hath
00:07:16.64\00:07:20.58
heard the voice of the living
God speaking out of the midst
00:07:20.61\00:07:23.30
of the fire as we have,
and lived? Go thou near,
00:07:23.33\00:07:27.65
and hear all that the Lord our
God shall say: and speak thou
00:07:27.68\00:07:30.66
unto us all that the Lord
our God shall speak unto thee;
00:07:30.69\00:07:33.65
and we will hear it, and do
it. And the Lord heard the voice
00:07:33.68\00:07:38.79
of your words when ye spake unto
me; and the Lord said unto me,
00:07:38.82\00:07:42.07
I have heard the voice
of the words of this people,
00:07:42.10\00:07:45.07
which they have spoken
unto thee: they have well said
00:07:45.10\00:07:48.57
all that they have spoken.
00:07:48.60\00:07:51.20
O that there were such an heart
in them, that they would fear me
00:07:51.23\00:07:56.02
and keep all my commandments
always, that it might be well
00:07:56.05\00:07:59.17
with them, and with
their children forever!
00:07:59.20\00:08:01.55
Go say to them, Get
you into your tents again.
00:08:01.58\00:08:05.38
But as for thee,
stand thou here by me,
00:08:05.41\00:08:08.53
and I will speak unto
thee all the commandments,
00:08:08.56\00:08:11.07
and the statutes
and the judgments,
00:08:11.10\00:08:13.01
which thou shalt teach
them, that they may do them
00:08:13.04\00:08:16.41
in the land which I
give them to possess it.
00:08:16.44\00:08:18.64
Ye shall observe to do
therefore as the Lord your God
00:08:18.67\00:08:23.23
hath commanded you: ye shall
not turn aside to the right hand
00:08:23.26\00:08:26.41
or to the left. Ye shall walk
in all the ways which the Lord
00:08:26.44\00:08:30.88
your God hath commanded
you, that you may live,
00:08:30.91\00:08:33.60
and that it may be well
with you and that ye may prolong
00:08:33.63\00:08:36.56
your days in the land
which ye shall possess.
00:08:36.59\00:08:39.45
Continuing in the book
of Deuteronomy, chapter 6
00:08:39.48\00:08:43.78
This is the King James Version.
00:08:43.81\00:08:45.49
Now these are the commandments,
the statutes, and the judgments,
00:08:45.52\00:08:50.69
which the Lord your
God commanded to teach you,
00:08:50.72\00:08:53.59
that ye might do them in the
land whither ye go to possess it
00:08:53.62\00:08:55.98
that thou mightest
fear the Lord thy God,
00:08:56.01\00:08:58.54
to keep all his
statutes and his commandments,
00:08:58.57\00:09:00.67
which I command thee, thou
and thy son, and thy son's son,
00:09:00.70\00:09:04.43
all the days of thy life; and
that thy days may be prolonged.
00:09:04.46\00:09:09.28
Hear therefore, O
Israel, and observe to do it;
00:09:09.31\00:09:13.14
that it may be well with
thee, and that ye may increase
00:09:13.17\00:09:16.11
mightily, as the Lord God of
thy fathers hath promised thee,
00:09:16.14\00:09:19.38
in the land that
floweth with milk and honey.
00:09:19.41\00:09:21.86
Hear, O Israel: The
Lord our God is one Lord:
00:09:21.89\00:09:26.57
And thou shalt love the Lord
thy God with all thine heart,
00:09:26.60\00:09:30.24
with all thy soul,
and with all thy might.
00:09:30.27\00:09:32.44
And these words, which
I command the this day,
00:09:32.47\00:09:36.48
shall be in thine heart:
And thou shalt teach them
00:09:36.51\00:09:40.84
diligently unto thy
children, and shalt talk of them
00:09:40.87\00:09:45.04
when thou sittest in thine
house, and then thou walkest
00:09:45.07\00:09:47.94
by the way, and when thou liest
down, and when thou risest up.
00:09:47.97\00:09:51.07
And thou shalt bind them
for a sign upon thine hand,
00:09:51.10\00:09:55.03
and they shall be as
frontlets between thine eyes.
00:09:55.06\00:09:58.18
And thou shalt write them
upon the posts of thy house,
00:09:58.21\00:10:00.94
and on thy gates. And it
shall be, when the Lord thy God
00:10:00.97\00:10:05.10
shall have brought thee
into the land which he sware
00:10:05.13\00:10:07.16
unto thy fathers, to
Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob,
00:10:07.19\00:10:10.30
to give thee great and goodly
cities, which thou buildest not,
00:10:10.33\00:10:14.58
and houses full of all good
things which thou filledst not,
00:10:14.61\00:10:18.07
and wells digged,
which thou diggest not,
00:10:18.10\00:10:20.57
vineyards and olive
trees, which thou plantedst not;
00:10:20.60\00:10:23.25
when thou shalt have eaten and
be full; then beware lest thou
00:10:23.28\00:10:29.86
forget the Lord, which brought
the forth out of the land
00:10:29.89\00:10:32.58
of Egypt, from
the house of bondage.
00:10:32.61\00:10:34.36
Thou shalt fear the Lord thy God
and serve him, and shalt swear
00:10:34.39\00:10:38.20
by his name. Ye shall
not go after other gods,
00:10:38.23\00:10:40.94
of the gods of the people
which are round about you;
00:10:40.97\00:10:43.30
lest the anger of the Lord
thy God be kindled against thee,
00:10:46.43\00:10:49.32
and destroy thee from
off the face of the earth.
00:10:49.35\00:10:51.68
Ye shall not tempt the
Lord your God, as ye tempted him
00:10:51.71\00:10:55.21
in Massah. Ye shall diligently
keep the commandments of
00:10:55.24\00:10:58.60
the Lord your God, and his
testimonies, and his statutes,
00:10:58.63\00:11:01.34
which he hath commanded thee.
And thou shalt do that which is
00:11:01.37\00:11:04.73
right and good in
the sight of the Lord:
00:11:04.76\00:11:07.55
that it may be well with
thee, and that thou mayest go in
00:11:07.58\00:11:11.00
and possess the good land which
the Lord sware unto thy fathers,
00:11:11.03\00:11:14.22
to cast out all thine
enemies from before thee,
00:11:14.25\00:11:17.34
as the Lord hath spoken.
And when thy son asketh thee
00:11:17.37\00:11:21.62
in time to come, saying,
What mean the testimonies,
00:11:21.65\00:11:24.76
and the statutes,
and the judgments,
00:11:24.79\00:11:26.45
which the Lord our
God hath commanded you?
00:11:26.48\00:11:28.69
Then thou shalt
say unto thy son,
00:11:28.72\00:11:31.63
We were Pharaoh's bondmen in
Egypt; and the Lord brought us
00:11:31.66\00:11:35.75
out of Egypt with a mighty
hand: And the Lord shewed signs
00:11:35.78\00:11:39.12
and wonders, great and
sore, upon Egypt, upon Pharaoh,
00:11:39.15\00:11:42.09
and upon all his
household, before our eyes:
00:11:42.12\00:11:44.28
And he brought
us out from thence,
00:11:44.31\00:11:46.20
that he might bring us
in, to give us the land
00:11:46.23\00:11:48.83
which he sware unto our fathers.
00:11:48.86\00:11:50.66
And the Lord commanded
us to do all these statutes,
00:11:50.69\00:11:54.05
to fear the Lord our
God, for our good always,
00:11:54.08\00:11:57.43
that he might preserve us
alive, as it is at this day.
00:11:57.46\00:12:01.10
And it shall be
our righteousness,
00:12:01.13\00:12:03.87
if we observe to do
all these commandments
00:12:03.90\00:12:05.89
before the Lord our
God, as he hath commanded us.
00:12:05.92\00:12:08.63
Continuing in the book
of Deuteronomy, chapter 7.
00:12:08.66\00:12:12.71
This is the King James Version.
00:12:12.74\00:12:14.11
When the Lord thy God
shall bring thee into the land
00:12:14.14\00:12:18.33
whither thou goest to possess it
and hath cast out many nations
00:12:18.36\00:12:22.06
before thee, the
Hittites, and the Girgashites,
00:12:22.09\00:12:24.38
and the Amorites,
and the Canaanites,
00:12:24.41\00:12:26.83
and the Perizzites, and
the Hivites, and the Jebusites,
00:12:26.86\00:12:29.49
seven nations greater
and mightier than thou;
00:12:29.52\00:12:32.35
and when the Lord thy God
shall deliver them before thee;
00:12:32.38\00:12:36.01
thou shalt smite them,
and utterly destroy them;
00:12:36.04\00:12:38.59
Thou shalt make no covenant with
them, nor shew mercy unto them:
00:12:38.62\00:12:43.28
Neither shalt thou
make marriages with them;
00:12:43.31\00:12:45.63
thy daughter thou
shalt not give unto his son,
00:12:45.66\00:12:48.37
nor his daughter shalt
thou take unto thy son.
00:12:48.40\00:12:50.51
For they will turn away
thy son from following me,
00:12:50.54\00:12:54.16
that they may serve other gods:
so will the anger of the Lord
00:12:54.19\00:12:57.93
be kindled against you,
and destroy thee suddenly.
00:12:57.96\00:13:00.31
But thus shall ye deal
with them; ye shall destroy
00:13:00.34\00:13:04.71
their altars, and break
down their images, and cut down
00:13:04.74\00:13:07.72
their groves, and burn
their graven images with fire.
00:13:07.75\00:13:11.09
For thou art an holy
people unto the Lord thy God:
00:13:11.12\00:13:15.21
The Lord thy God hath chosen
thee to be a special people
00:13:15.24\00:13:19.45
unto himself, above all people
00:13:19.48\00:13:21.54
that are upon the
face of the earth.
00:13:21.57\00:13:22.83
The Lord did not set his
love upon you, nor choose you
00:13:22.86\00:13:26.96
because you were more
in number than any people;
00:13:26.99\00:13:29.27
for ye were the
fewest of all people:
00:13:29.30\00:13:31.60
But because the Lord loved
you, and because he would keep
00:13:31.63\00:13:35.55
the oath which he had
sworn unto your fathers,
00:13:35.58\00:13:37.60
hath the Lord brought
you out with a mighty hand,
00:13:37.63\00:13:40.42
and redeemed you out
of the house of bondmen,
00:13:40.45\00:13:43.21
from the hand of
Pharaoh king of Egypt.
00:13:43.24\00:13:45.32
Know therefore that the
Lord thy God, he is God,
00:13:45.35\00:13:49.70
the faithful God, which
keepeth covenant and mercy with
00:13:49.73\00:13:53.87
them that love him
and keep his commandments
00:13:53.90\00:13:56.63
to a thousand generations;
and repayeth them that hate him
00:13:56.66\00:13:59.64
to their face, to destroy them:
he will not be slack to him that
00:13:59.67\00:14:04.16
hateth him, he will
repay him to his face.
00:14:04.19\00:14:07.27
Thou shalt therefore keep the
commandments, and the statutes,
00:14:07.30\00:14:10.76
and the judgments,
which I command the this day,
00:14:10.79\00:14:12.95
to do them. Wherefore it shall
come to pass, if ye hearken
00:14:12.98\00:14:17.39
to these judgments, and
keep, and do them, that the Lord
00:14:17.42\00:14:21.04
thy God shall keep unto
thee the covenant and the mercy
00:14:21.07\00:14:24.25
which he sware unto thy fathers.
00:14:24.28\00:14:26.64
