Verse of the Day...Deuteronomy 29:9

Each day (or least every few days) I've been attempting to learn a new verse. Right now, this is the one I'm praying on...

Keep therefore the words of this covenant, and do them, that ye may prosper in all that ye do. ~ Deuteronomy 29:9

In Deuteronomy, Moses is giving the Children of Israel the law again, reminding them of all that they have endured and that the Lord has provided those forty years while they wandered in the wilderness. Even with all they have witnessed, the Children of Israel still need to be reminded that they should not forget the Covenant with God. I am reminded how Moses told them in another passage of Deuteronomy, that when they reach this land of plenty, beware lest they get so used to the blessings they forget to praise and worship Yahweh and end up walking away from their source of strength and prosperity.

My prayer is that we continue to keep Covenant with the Lord, seek in in all that we do and follow after Christ's example so that we can say all is well because He is our God.
