Hello, and welcome
back to His Words are life.
00:00:15.94\00:00:18.14
I'm Kelly Mowrer and thank
you for joining with me again to
00:00:18.17\00:00:21.21
read the word of God. Before
we start, let's pray together.
00:00:21.24\00:00:24.00
Dear Lord, thank you for a time
to come apart to sit and be fed
00:00:24.03\00:00:30.21
through the words that
are the very bread of life
00:00:30.24\00:00:33.53
to our hungry heart.
Please come now and teach us
00:00:33.56\00:00:39.15
instruct us in the ways that
we should go. Help us to learn
00:00:39.18\00:00:42.51
the lessons you have for us
for today. We love you so much
00:00:42.54\00:00:45.59
and thank you for loving us.
When we were last together, we
00:00:45.62\00:00:50.29
were reading of Moses gathering
the Israelites and his long
00:00:50.32\00:00:54.32
recounting to them of all of the
leading of God and his pleading
00:00:54.35\00:00:58.72
with them to follow the words
of the Lord, and let those words
00:00:58.75\00:01:01.97
bring them a life of
prosperity and happiness
00:01:02.00\00:01:05.88
that they would
never find any where else.
00:01:05.91\00:01:08.62
We're going to pick it up
now in Deuteronomy chapter 10,
00:01:08.65\00:01:11.56
starting with verse 12.
This is the King James Version.
00:01:11.59\00:01:15.00
And now, Israel, what doth the
Lord thy God require of thee,
00:01:15.03\00:01:20.42
but to fear the Lord thy
God, to walk in all his ways,
00:01:20.45\00:01:24.69
and to love him, and
to serve the Lord thy God
00:01:24.72\00:01:28.33
with all thy heart
and with all thy soul,
00:01:28.36\00:01:31.06
to keep the commandments
of the Lord, and his statutes,
00:01:31.09\00:01:35.20
which I command thee this day
for thy good? Behold, the heaven
00:01:35.23\00:01:40.91
and the heaven of
heavens is the Lord's thy God,
00:01:40.94\00:01:44.48
the earth also with all
that therein is. Only the Lord
00:01:44.51\00:01:49.48
had a delight in thy fathers
to love them, and he chose
00:01:49.51\00:01:53.34
their seed after them,
even you above all people,
00:01:53.37\00:01:56.55
as it is this day. Circumcise
therefore the foreskin of your
00:01:56.58\00:02:02.17
heart and be no
more stiff-necked.
00:02:02.20\00:02:05.49
For the Lord your God is
God of gods, and Lord of lords,
00:02:05.52\00:02:10.26
a great God, a mighty, and a
terrible, which regardeth not
00:02:10.29\00:02:14.87
persons, nor taketh reward: He
doth execute the judgment of the
00:02:14.90\00:02:18.86
fatherless and widow, and loveth
the stranger, in giving him food
00:02:18.89\00:02:23.66
and raiment. Love ye
therefore the strangers:
00:02:23.69\00:02:26.83
for ye were
strangers in the land of Egypt.
00:02:26.86\00:02:28.99
Thou shalt fear the Lord
thy God; him shalt thou serve,
00:02:29.02\00:02:33.08
and to him shalt thou
cleave, and swear by his name.
00:02:33.11\00:02:35.92
He is thy praise, and he is
thy God, that hath done for thee
00:02:35.95\00:02:42.49
these great and terrible things,
which thine eyes have seen.
00:02:42.52\00:02:45.15
Thy fathers went down into Egypt
with threescore and ten persons;
00:02:45.18\00:02:49.54
and now the Lord thy God hath
made thee as the stars of heaven
00:02:49.57\00:02:53.75
for multitude.
We're continuing to read
00:02:53.78\00:02:56.55
in the book of
Deuteronomy, chapter 11.
00:02:56.58\00:02:58.65
And this is the
King James Version.
00:02:58.68\00:03:00.24
Therefore thou shalt
love the Lord thy God,
00:03:00.27\00:03:04.50
and keep his charge, and
his statutes, and his judgments,
00:03:04.53\00:03:07.42
and his commandments,
alway. And know ye this day:
00:03:07.45\00:03:11.44
for I speak not with your
children which have not known,
00:03:11.47\00:03:15.36
and which have not seen
the chastisement of the Lord
00:03:15.39\00:03:17.89
you God, his greatness, his
mighty hand, and his stretched
00:03:17.92\00:03:20.55
out arm, and his miracles,
and his acts, which he did
00:03:20.58\00:03:24.01
in the midst of Egypt
unto Pharaoh the king of Egypt
00:03:24.04\00:03:26.94
and unto all his land; and what
he did unto the army of Egypt
00:03:26.97\00:03:30.77
and to their horses, and
to their chariots; how he made
00:03:30.80\00:03:34.44
the water of the Red sea to
overflow them as they pursued
00:03:34.47\00:03:37.45
after you, and how the Lord hath
destroyed them unto this day;
00:03:37.48\00:03:41.45
And what he did unto
you in the wilderness,
00:03:41.48\00:03:43.91
until ye came into this place;
And what he did unto Dathan
00:03:43.94\00:03:48.09
and Abiram, the sons of
Eliab, the son of Reuben:
00:03:48.12\00:03:51.42
how the earth opened her
mouth, and swallowed them up,
00:03:51.45\00:03:55.14
and their households, and their
tents, and all the substance
00:03:55.17\00:03:57.96
that was in their possession,
in the midst of all Israel:
00:03:57.99\00:04:00.09
But your eyes have seen
all the great acts of the Lord
00:04:00.12\00:04:03.75
which he did. Therefore shall
ye keep all the commandments
00:04:03.78\00:04:07.54
which I command you this day,
that ye may be strong, and go in
00:04:07.57\00:04:11.45
and possess the land,
whither ye go to possess it;
00:04:11.48\00:04:14.67
And that ye may prolong you days
in the land which the Lord sware
00:04:14.70\00:04:18.78
unto your fathers to give
unto them and to their seed,
00:04:18.81\00:04:21.25
a land that floweth with
milk and honey. For the land,
00:04:21.28\00:04:26.14
whither thou goest in to possess
it, is not as the land of Egypt,
00:04:26.17\00:04:30.33
from whence ye came out,
where thou sowedst thy seed,
00:04:30.36\00:04:33.44
and waterdst it with thy
foot, as a garden of herbs:
00:04:33.47\00:04:36.61
But the land, whither ye go to
possess it, is a land of hills
00:04:36.64\00:04:41.73
and valleys, and drinketh
water of the rain of heaven:
00:04:41.76\00:04:45.74
A land which the
Lord thy God careth for;
00:04:45.77\00:04:48.82
the eyes of the Lord
thy God are always upon it,
00:04:48.85\00:04:52.37
from the beginning of the year
even unto the end of the year.
00:04:52.40\00:04:55.60
And it shall come to pass, if ye
shall hearken diligently unto my
00:04:55.63\00:05:00.55
commandments which I command
you this day, to love the Lord
00:05:00.58\00:05:04.44
your God, and to serve
him with all your heart
00:05:04.47\00:05:07.33
and with all your soul,
that I will give you the rain
00:05:07.36\00:05:12.15
of your land in his due season,
the first rain and the latter
00:05:12.18\00:05:17.04
rain, that thou mayest gather
in thy corn, and thy wine,
00:05:17.07\00:05:20.71
and thine oil. And I
will send grass in thy fields
00:05:20.74\00:05:24.87
for thy cattle, that
thou mayest eat and be full.
00:05:24.90\00:05:28.14
Take heed to yourselves,
that your heart be not deceived,
00:05:28.17\00:05:33.00
and ye turn aside, and serve
other gods, and worship them;
00:05:33.03\00:05:37.60
And then the Lord's
wrath be kindled against you,
00:05:37.63\00:05:41.04
and he shut up the
heaven, that there be no rain,
00:05:41.07\00:05:43.79
and that the land yield not
her fruit; and lest ye perish
00:05:43.82\00:05:47.61
quickly from off the good
land which the Lord giveth you.
00:05:47.64\00:05:50.22
Therefore shall ye lay up
these my words in your heart
00:05:50.25\00:05:54.77
and in your soul, and bind
them for a sign upon your hand,
00:05:54.80\00:05:59.04
that they may be as
frontlets between your eyes.
00:05:59.07\00:06:02.07
And ye shall teach them
your children, speaking of them
00:06:02.10\00:06:06.25
when thou sittest in thine house
and when thou walkest by the way
00:06:06.28\00:06:10.02
when thou liest down,
and when thou risest up.
00:06:10.05\00:06:12.43
And thou shalt write them upon
the door posts of thine house,
00:06:12.46\00:06:16.19
and upon thy gates: that
your days may be multiplied,
00:06:16.22\00:06:19.96
and the days of your children,
in the land which the Lord sware
00:06:19.99\00:06:23.27
unto your fathers to give
them. as the days of heaven
00:06:23.30\00:06:26.32
upon the earth. For if
ye shall diligently keep
00:06:26.35\00:06:30.44
all these
commandments which I command you
00:06:30.47\00:06:32.53
to do them, to love
the Lord your God, to walk,
00:06:32.56\00:06:36.54
in all his ways and to cleave
unto him, then will the Lord
00:06:36.57\00:06:41.18
drive out all these
nations from before you.
00:06:41.21\00:06:43.68
And ye shall possess
greater nations and mightier
00:06:43.71\00:06:47.38
than yourself. Every place
whereon the soles of your feet
00:06:47.41\00:06:51.60
shall tread shall be
yours: from the wilderness
00:06:51.63\00:06:54.97
and Lebanon, from the
river, the river Euphrates,
00:06:55.00\00:06:58.51
even unto the uttermost
sea shall your coast be.
00:06:58.54\00:07:01.41
There shall be no man be
able to stand before you:
00:07:01.44\00:07:04.99
for the Lord your God shall lay
the fear of you and the dread
00:07:05.02\00:07:08.80
of you upon all the land
that ye shall tread upon,
00:07:08.83\00:07:10.78
as he hath said unto you.
Behold I set before you this day
00:07:10.81\00:07:17.86
a blessing and a
curse; A blessing, if ye obey
00:07:17.89\00:07:23.49
the commandments of the Lord
you God, which I command you
00:07:23.52\00:07:26.01
this day: and a curse, if ye
will not obey the commandments
00:07:26.04\00:07:30.72
of the Lord your God, but turn
aside out of the way which I
00:07:30.75\00:07:35.45
command you this day,
to go after other gods
00:07:35.48\00:07:38.37
which ye have not known.
And it shall come to pass,
00:07:38.40\00:07:42.64
when the Lord thy God hath
brought thee in unto the land
00:07:42.67\00:07:46.44
whither thou
goest to possess it,
00:07:46.47\00:07:48.19
that thou shalt put the
blessing upon mount Gerizim,
00:07:48.22\00:07:52.02
and the curse upon mount Ebal.
Are they not on the other side
00:07:52.05\00:07:57.47
Jordan, by the way
where the sun goeth down,
00:07:57.50\00:08:00.44
in the land of the Canaanites,
which dwell in the Champaign,
00:08:00.47\00:08:04.14
over against Gilgal,
beside the plains of Moreh?
00:08:04.17\00:08:07.27
For ye shall pass over Jordan
to go in to possess the land
00:08:07.30\00:08:11.69
which the Lord your God giveth
you and ye shall possess it,
00:08:11.72\00:08:14.97
and dwell therein. And ye shall
observe to do all the statutes
00:08:15.00\00:08:20.11
and judgments which I
set before you this day.
00:08:20.14\00:08:23.21
We're continuing in the
book of Deuteronomy, chapter 12
00:08:23.24\00:08:27.52
and this is the
King James Version
00:08:27.55\00:08:29.40
These are the
statutes and judgments,
00:08:29.43\00:08:34.19
which ye shall observe to do
in the land, which the Lord God
00:08:34.22\00:08:37.42
of thy fathers giveth thee
to possess it, all the days
00:08:37.45\00:08:40.44
that ye live upon the
earth. Ye shall utterly destroy
00:08:40.47\00:08:44.18
all the places, wherein the
nations which ye shall possess
00:08:44.21\00:08:47.16
served their gods, upon the high
mountains, and upon the hills,
00:08:47.19\00:08:50.11
and under every green tree: And
ye shall overthrow their altars,
00:08:50.14\00:08:54.15
and break their pillars,
and burn their groves with fire;
00:08:54.18\00:08:57.46
and ye shall hew down the
graven images of their gods,
00:08:57.49\00:09:00.85
and destroy the names
of them out of that place.
00:09:00.88\00:09:03.62
Ye shall not do so unto the Lord
your God. But into the place
00:09:03.65\00:09:09.50
which the Lord your God shall
choose out of all your tribes
00:09:09.53\00:09:11.98
to put his name there, even unto
his habitation shall ye seek,
00:09:12.01\00:09:16.12
and thither thou shalt
come: And thither ye shall bring
00:09:16.15\00:09:20.62
your burnt offerings, and your
sacrifices, and your tithes,
00:09:20.65\00:09:24.04
and heave offerings of
your hands, and your vows,
00:09:24.07\00:09:26.66
and your freewill offerings,
and the firstlings of your herds
00:09:26.69\00:09:30.69
and of your flocks: and there
ye shall eat before the Lord
00:09:30.72\00:09:34.66
your God, and ye shall rejoice
in all that ye put your hand
00:09:34.69\00:09:38.46
unto, ye and your households,
wherein the Lord thy God
00:09:38.49\00:09:42.13
hath blessed thee. Ye shall
not do after all the things
00:09:42.16\00:09:46.24
that we do here this day,
every man whatsoever is right
00:09:46.27\00:09:49.64
in his own eyes. For ye
are not as yet come to the rest
00:09:49.67\00:09:54.02
and to the inheritance, which
the Lord your God giveth you.
00:09:54.05\00:09:57.17
But when ye go over Jordan and
dwell in the land which the Lord
00:09:57.20\00:10:01.65
your God giveth you to inherit,
and when he giveth you rest
00:10:01.68\00:10:05.44
from all your enemies
round about, so that ye dwell
00:10:05.47\00:10:08.58
safety; then there shall be
a place which the Lord your God
00:10:08.61\00:10:12.47
shall choose to call his name
to dwell there; thither shall ye
00:10:12.50\00:10:17.09
bring all that I command
you; your burnt offerings,
00:10:17.12\00:10:19.54
and your sacrifices, your
tithes, and the heave offering
00:10:19.57\00:10:22.69
of you hand, and all your choice
vows which ye vow unto the Lord:
00:10:22.72\00:10:26.72
And ye shall rejoice before the
Lord your God, ye, and your sons
00:10:26.75\00:10:31.22
and your daughters,
and your menservants,
00:10:31.25\00:10:33.44
and your maidservants, and the
Levite that is within your gates
00:10:33.47\00:10:36.78
forasmuch as he hath no
part nor inheritance with you.
00:10:36.81\00:10:40.82
Take heed to thyself that thou
offer not thy burnt offerings
00:10:40.85\00:10:45.65
in every place that thou seest:
But in the place which the Lord
00:10:45.68\00:10:49.41
shall choose in one of thy
tribes, there thou shalt offer
00:10:49.44\00:10:53.25
thy burnt offerings, and there
thou shalt do all that I command
00:10:53.28\00:10:57.01
thee. Notwithstanding
thou mayest kill and eat flesh
00:10:57.04\00:11:01.23
in all thy gates, whatsoever thy
soul lusteth after, according
00:11:01.26\00:11:04.89
to the blessing of the Lord thy
God which he hath given thee:
00:11:04.92\00:11:07.25
the unclean and the clean may
eat thereof, as of the roebuck,
00:11:07.28\00:11:11.86
and as of the hart. Only
ye shall not eat the blood;
00:11:11.89\00:11:16.17
ye shall pour it upon the earth
as water. Thou mayest not eat
00:11:16.20\00:11:21.30
within thy gates the tithe
of thy corn, or of thy wine,
00:11:21.33\00:11:25.21
or of thy oil, or the firstlings
of thy herds or of thy flock,
00:11:25.24\00:11:29.06
nor any of thy vows which
thou vowest nor thy freewill
00:11:29.09\00:11:32.99
offerings or heave offering
of thine hand: But thou must eat
00:11:33.02\00:11:36.70
them before the Lord thy God in
the place which the Lord thy God
00:11:36.73\00:11:39.26
shall choose, thou, and
thy son, and thy daughter,
00:11:39.29\00:11:42.19
and thy manservant, and
thy maidservant, and the Levite
00:11:42.22\00:11:45.05
that is within thy
gates: and thou shalt rejoice
00:11:45.08\00:11:48.47
before the Lord thy God in all
that thou puttest thine hands
00:11:48.50\00:11:51.75
unto. Take heed to thyself
that thou forsake not the Levite
00:11:51.78\00:11:56.75
as long as thou
livest upon the earth.
00:11:56.78\00:11:59.00
When the Lord thy God
shall enlarge thy border,
00:11:59.04\00:12:02.00
as he hath promised thee, and
thou shalt say I will eat flesh,
00:12:02.03\00:12:05.72
because thy soul longeth to eat
flesh; thou mayest eat flesh;
00:12:05.75\00:12:09.88
whatsoever thy
soul lusteth after.
00:12:09.91\00:12:11.91
If the place which the which
the Lord thy God hath chosen
00:12:11.94\00:12:15.89
to put his name there be too far
from thee, then thou shalt kill
00:12:15.92\00:12:20.33
of thy herd and of they flock,
which the Lord hath given thee,
00:12:20.36\00:12:23.24
as I have commanded thee,
and thou shalt eat in thy gates
00:12:23.27\00:12:26.25
whatsoever thy soul lusteth
after. Even as the roebuck
00:12:26.28\00:12:30.88
and the hart is eaten,
so thou shalt eat them:
00:12:30.91\00:12:33.68
the unclean and the clean shall
eat of them alike. Only be sure
00:12:33.71\00:12:39.12
that thou eat not the blood:
for the blood is the life;
00:12:39.15\00:12:41.92
and thou mayest not eat
the life with the flesh.
00:12:41.95\00:12:43.94
Thou shalt not eat it; thou
shalt pour it upon the earth
00:12:43.97\00:12:47.63
as water. Thou shalt not eat it;
that it may go well with thee,
00:12:47.66\00:12:51.60
and with thy children
after thee, when thou shalt do
00:12:51.63\00:12:55.72
that which is right
in the sight of the Lord.
00:12:55.75\00:12:58.18
Only thy holy things
which thou hast, and thy vows,
00:12:58.21\00:13:02.44
thou shalt take, and go
unto the place which the Lord
00:13:02.47\00:13:05.10
shall choose. And thou
shalt offer thy burnt offerings,
00:13:05.13\00:13:08.49
the flesh and the blood, upon
the altar of the Lord thy God:
00:13:08.52\00:13:11.43
and the blood of thy
sacrifices shall be poured out
00:13:11.46\00:13:14.77
upon the altar
of the Lord thy God,
00:13:14.80\00:13:16.60
and thou shalt eat the flesh.
Observe and hear all these words
00:13:16.63\00:13:22.22
which I command thee,
that it may go well with thee,
00:13:22.25\00:13:25.06
and with thy children after thee
forever, when thou doest that
00:13:25.09\00:13:29.39
which is good and right in
the sight of the Lord thy God.
00:13:29.42\00:13:32.57
When the Lord thy God shall cut
off the nations from before thee
00:13:32.60\00:13:36.92
whither thou goest to possess
them, and thou succeedest them
00:13:36.95\00:13:39.83
and dwellest in their
land; Take heed to thyself
00:13:39.86\00:13:43.15
that thou be not
snared by following them,
00:13:43.18\00:13:46.02
after that they be destroyed
from before thee; and that thou
00:13:46.05\00:13:50.69
inquire not after their gods,
saying, How did these nations
00:13:50.72\00:13:55.28
serve their gods?
Even so will I do likewise.
00:13:55.31\00:13:58.11
Thou shalt not do so
unto the Lord thy God:
00:13:58.14\00:14:01.17
for every abomination to
the Lord, which he hateth,
00:14:01.20\00:14:04.51
hateth, have they done unto
their gods; for even their sons
00:14:04.54\00:14:07.15
and their daughters they have
burnt in the fire to their gods.
00:14:07.18\00:14:09.87
What thing soever I command you,
observe to do it: thou shalt not
00:14:09.90\00:14:16.54
add thereto, nor
diminish from it.
00:14:16.57\00:14:19.32
Thank you for
being with me today
00:14:19.35\00:14:22.89
to read the
word of God together.
00:14:22.92\00:14:24.47
And until we come together
again I pray that we will choose
00:14:24.50\00:14:29.27
to obey God through
His grace, and his power,
00:14:29.30\00:14:31.96
that his
blessings may fall on us.
00:14:31.99\00:14:34.51
