Moses also instructed them to Remember and Never Forget the LORD’S Powerful Acts and Promises for His Chosen People (The Jewish People)! These same Powerful Acts and Promises are Real, Relevant, and Have Been Extended to Born Again Believers/Followers of Yeshua as Descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob! Deuteronomy Chapter 6 NIV~ Bible Gateway Online “These are the commands, decrees and laws the LORD your God directed me to teach you to observe in the land that you are crossing the Jordan to possess, 2 so that you, your children and their children after them may fear the LORD your God as long as you live by keeping all his decrees and commands that I give you, and so that you may enjoy long life. 3 Hear, Israel, and be careful to obey so that it may go well with you and that you may increase greatly in a land flowing with milk and honey, just as the LORD, the God of your ancestors, promised you. 4 Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God, the LORD is one.[a] 5 Love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. 6 These commandments that I give you today are to be on your hearts. 7 Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up. 8 Tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads. 9 Write them on the doorframes of your houses and on your gates. 10 When the LORD your God brings you into the land he swore to your fathers, to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, to give you—a land with large, flourishing cities you did not build, 11 houses filled with all kinds of good things you did not provide, wells you did not dig, and vineyards and olive groves you did not plant—then when you eat and are satisfied, 12 be careful that you do not forget the LORD, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery. 13 Fear the LORD your God, serve him only and take your oaths in his name. 14 Do not follow other gods, the gods of the peoples around you; 15 for the LORD your God, who is among you, is a jealous God and his anger will burn against you, and he will destroy you from the face of the land. 16 Do not put the LORD your God to the test as you did at Massah. 17 Be sure to keep the commands of the LORD your God and the stipulations and decrees he has given you. 18 Do what is right and good in the LORD’s sight, so that it may go well with you and you may go in and take over the good land the LORD promised on oath to your ancestors, 19 thrusting out all your enemies before you, as the LORD said. 20 In the future, when your son asks you, “What is the meaning of the stipulations, decrees and laws the LORD our God has commanded you?” 21 tell him: “We were slaves of Pharaoh in Egypt, but the LORD brought us out of Egypt with a mighty hand. 22 Before our eyes the LORD sent signs and wonders—great and terrible—on Egypt and Pharaoh and his whole household. 23 But he brought us out from there to bring us in and give us the land he promised on oath to our ancestors. 24 The LORD commanded us to obey all these decrees and to fear the LORD our God, so that we might always prosper and be kept alive, as is the case today. 25 And if we are careful to obey all this law before the LORD our God, as he has commanded us, that will be our righteousness.” Therefore, we as born-again-believers and humanity are Not exempt from the following! (1) Love and Obey the LORD and Teach Your Children to Love and Obey the LORD: Loving our LORD extends beyond lip service as our lives are to line-up in accordance with living out the Bible as declared by our LORD in John 14:15, “If you love me, keep my commands.” (John 14:15) (2) Fear the LORD and Serve Him Only: When Jesus stood face to face with Satan in Matthew chapter 4, Jesus’s words and deeds acknowledged his fear of and respect for Almighty God! Jesus not only rejected Satan’s offer to sin against God, but He also renounced Satan’s lies, and Jesus declared the Word of God to the number one enemy of God and His children. Verse 4 says, “Jesus answered, “It is written: Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every world that comes from the mouth of God.” Serve Him Only means exactly what it says. In Matthew 4:10: “Jesus said to him, “Away from me, Satan! For it is written: Worship the LORD your God and serve him only.” Today within this world there are a plethora number of different religions, beliefs, and ideologies, but make No mistake about this: THIS WORLD WAS CREATED TO WORSHIP THE ONLY ONE TRUE GOD REVEALED IN THREE PERSONS (FATHER, SON-JESUS, HOLY SPIRIT)! HUMANITY WAS CREATED TO SERVE ONLY ONE TRUE GOD AS FOLLOWERS OF YESHUA*JESUS CHRIST! People have chosen to serve and follow their man-made gods, and all of humanity will stand before the ONE and ONLY TRUE GOD on Judgement Day! You display your gods, you bow down to your gods, you dance to your god, you serenade your god, you make sacrifices to your god, you confess to your god, you pray to your god, you consult your god, you pledge to your god, you lead others to your god, you meet with your god and others through your secret organizations, equating to Sin Against the LORD! For our LORD is Holy as King of kings and LORD of lords! “Do you not know? Have you not heard? The LORD is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom.” (Isaiah 40:28) There are No substitutes and No surrogates, “For there is one God, and one mediator between God and mankind, the man Jesus Christ, who gave himself as a ransom for all people.” (1 Timothy 2:5-6) Therefore, “Do not follow other gods to serve and worship them; do not arouse my anger with what your hands have made. Then I will not harm you.” (Jeremiah 25:6) Afterall, “Without holiness no one will see the Lord.” Hebrews 12:14 (3) Repent And Return Back to the LORD: Do not make the mistake of listening to and believing in the erroneous teachings and delusional rhetoric that states there are many pathways to heaven! THERE IS ONLY ONE PATHWAY THROUGH JESUS CHRIST BY WAY OF SALVATION! Jesus said in John 14:6, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” Because Almighty God is a loving God and through His One and Only Son, Jesus, forgiveness of sins, Salvation, grace, and mercies are available as spoken in Romans chapter 10. 1 John 1:8-9 reminds us, “If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. If we claim we have not sinned, we make him out to be a liar and his word is not in us.” 1 John 1:9 says, “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.” ALL FOR YESUA* JESUS CHRIST!
