00:00:00.920 --> 00:00:05.219
 We can turn back together to our reading in Deuteronomy chapter 10.

00:00:05.639 --> 00:00:10.800
! We're going to look at the last part of the chapter, verse 12, down to the end.

00:00:11.740 --> 00:00:16.839
 Deuteronomy chapter 10, verse 12, where it asks the question there,

00:00:16.839 --> 00:00:23.320
 And now, Israel, what does the Lord your God require of you but to fear the Lord your God,

00:00:23.380 --> 00:00:28.800
 to walk in all his ways, to love him, to serve the Lord your God with all your heart

00:00:28.800 --> 00:00:35.340
 and with all your soul, and to keep the commandments and statutes of the Lord which I am commanding you

00:00:35.340 --> 00:00:39.400
 today for your good, and so on.

00:00:39.399 --> 00:00:43.199
 What's your favorite book of the Bible?

00:00:43.399 --> 00:00:48.739
 I don't know, maybe you have one, maybe you have many different books of the Bible that you like turning to,

00:00:48.859 --> 00:00:53.739
 depending what kind of situation you're in in life or just what's on your mind.

00:00:54.479 --> 00:00:56.579
 There can be many different places that we turn.

00:00:57.159 --> 00:01:04.799
 It might be going into the Old Testament, you enjoy reading some of the narratives there about events that took place a long time ago.

00:01:04.799 --> 00:01:12.079
 It might be to the book of Psalms or Proverbs, where there's much wisdom given to us, much kind of direction.

00:01:12.679 --> 00:01:17.280
 It might be the prophets that you enjoy, where you see God speaking through them,

00:01:17.420 --> 00:01:20.840
 warning people and telling them of events that are to come.

00:01:21.759 --> 00:01:29.819
 Perhaps you go into the New Testament, you enjoy the Gospels and how they speak to us of the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ,

00:01:29.819 --> 00:01:31.959
 and how he came and what he did.

00:01:32.539 --> 00:01:35.059
 We read accounts, events that happened.

00:01:35.199 --> 00:01:39.979
 We read great depths of understanding of who God is and who Jesus is.

00:01:40.599 --> 00:01:49.139
 You see the book of Acts, and you enjoy that accounts of the Gospel spreading through many different people to many different places.

00:01:49.140 --> 00:01:55.400
 And then you read the letters of Paul and others writing to churches that have been established.

00:01:55.480 --> 00:02:00.299
 Or you come into the book of Revelation, and you begin to wonder about what is ahead.

00:02:00.379 --> 00:02:03.040
 What is the book of Revelation talking about?

00:02:03.120 --> 00:02:05.620
 There's so many different parts of Scripture.

00:02:05.819 --> 00:02:07.319
 There's such a variety to us.

00:02:07.740 --> 00:02:10.860
 There's such a wealth of learning in it.

00:02:11.439 --> 00:02:15.240
 And we can go to different parts, depending what's going on in our minds.

00:02:15.240 --> 00:02:20.960
 But where does Deuteronomy feature in that variety of what you read?

00:02:21.000 --> 00:02:25.719
 How often do you turn to the book of Deuteronomy and think, I want to go into Deuteronomy?

00:02:25.780 --> 00:02:27.340
 It's such an encouraging book.

00:02:28.060 --> 00:02:30.860
 It's maybe not one that comes to mind immediately.

00:02:31.580 --> 00:02:36.460
 And yet, when we go into it, as you read through it, there's so much to take from it.

00:02:36.939 --> 00:02:39.960
 When we maybe think to ourselves, as many people do,

00:02:40.000 --> 00:02:43.680
 I'm going to read the Bible from the beginning to the end.

00:02:43.680 --> 00:02:47.719
 I mentioned this before, how often people can start reading in Genesis.

00:02:47.939 --> 00:02:50.800
 And we were in Leviticus a few weeks ago now.

00:02:51.020 --> 00:02:54.319
 And very often, that's where people get bogged down,

00:02:54.400 --> 00:02:56.740
 where people kind of come to a shuddering halt.

00:02:57.260 --> 00:03:02.560
 It gets into us talking about things maybe we don't understand, we find difficult to read.

00:03:02.640 --> 00:03:08.379
 And sadly, many people can come to a conclusion of their reading from beginning to end in Leviticus.

00:03:08.480 --> 00:03:10.680
 And you don't get as far as Deuteronomy.

00:03:10.680 --> 00:03:17.200
 You miss out on what Deuteronomy speaks about because it's got a wealth of things to say to us.

00:03:17.540 --> 00:03:20.400
 Such an important book as we see it in the Old Testament.

00:03:20.800 --> 00:03:26.860
 But its importance is also seen in how often it's mentioned in the New Testament as well.

00:03:27.900 --> 00:03:32.500
 Gordon Wenham, a writer, a theologian, describes it in this way.

00:03:32.580 --> 00:03:35.819
 He says it's the linchpin of the Old Testament.

00:03:35.980 --> 00:03:38.860
 It's what holds everything else together.

00:03:38.860 --> 00:03:41.720
 So it's an important book.

00:03:42.260 --> 00:03:47.680
 And it's seen how important it is and how often it's quoted in the New Testament.

00:03:48.040 --> 00:03:51.920
 You might be surprised that along with Genesis, Psalms, and Isaiah,

00:03:52.300 --> 00:03:55.920
 it's the most quoted book in the New Testament.

00:03:57.000 --> 00:03:59.080
 So why is it so important?

00:03:59.240 --> 00:04:00.900
 What's its significance?

00:04:01.080 --> 00:04:04.240
 And has its significance waned, if you like?

00:04:04.280 --> 00:04:05.920
 Is it less important today?

00:04:05.919 --> 00:04:09.319
 It was written many thousands of years ago.

00:04:10.119 --> 00:04:17.300
 And yet the truths that we find in it for the there and then, as Moses is leading a people into the promised land,

00:04:18.039 --> 00:04:24.019
 are very much truths that we need for the here and now as well.

00:04:24.120 --> 00:04:27.099
 They speak very much into our day.

00:04:27.100 --> 00:04:33.560
 And it was written at the time when Moses had led the children of Israel out of their captivity in Egypt,

00:04:34.160 --> 00:04:39.120
 led them through the wilderness and leading them to the border of the promised land.

00:04:39.680 --> 00:04:44.460
 And here he is, if you like, renewing the covenant with his people.

00:04:44.580 --> 00:04:48.680
 God reminding them of the promises that he has given to them.

00:04:48.680 --> 00:04:52.540
 And here in chapter 10, if you just look back into chapter 9,

00:04:52.660 --> 00:04:55.819
 you see it's just after the incident with the golden calf,

00:04:56.319 --> 00:05:02.220
 where the people of God had got tired of Moses being away from them.

00:05:02.280 --> 00:05:03.879
 Where is he? Why isn't he coming back?

00:05:03.900 --> 00:05:05.680
 And then saying, he's not coming back.

00:05:06.240 --> 00:05:11.460
 And they said, let us make a golden calf to worship in place of God.

00:05:11.780 --> 00:05:13.079
 And this is what they did.

00:05:13.939 --> 00:05:18.100
 And Moses, when he came down, he smashed the tablets of the Ten Commandments.

00:05:18.100 --> 00:05:20.580
 That's why we read in chapter 10,

00:05:20.680 --> 00:05:24.920
 these new tablets of stone with the Ten Commandments were being given.

00:05:25.100 --> 00:05:27.879
 This was the incident around this time,

00:05:28.360 --> 00:05:31.860
 around these events that we're reading of in chapter 10.

00:05:31.860 --> 00:05:38.280
 And it kind of makes it even more remarkable just how God speaks to them in chapter 10,

00:05:38.379 --> 00:05:41.879
 the kind of mercy that he shows to them.

00:05:42.680 --> 00:05:47.400
 And Moses is preaching here about their need for an allegiance to God.

00:05:48.100 --> 00:05:50.480
 That as they go into the promised land,

00:05:50.580 --> 00:05:53.900
 a land filled with many different temptations,

00:05:54.000 --> 00:05:57.860
 and especially the choices of what God to worship,

00:05:57.980 --> 00:06:02.100
 because the place would be full of idols and false gods

00:06:02.100 --> 00:06:04.140
 that they could choose to worship.

00:06:04.379 --> 00:06:09.140
 Moses is saying, if you want to know blessing and favor from God,

00:06:09.500 --> 00:06:12.320
 you are to worship him alone.

00:06:12.319 --> 00:06:14.939
 You are to worship God alone.

00:06:16.060 --> 00:06:18.519
 And there is a relevance for ourselves today.

00:06:19.540 --> 00:06:25.420
 Because we read here about the temptations that these men, women, boys and girls

00:06:25.420 --> 00:06:27.779
 were going to face in all the variety,

00:06:27.920 --> 00:06:31.000
 all the choices that they would have going into the promised land.

00:06:31.360 --> 00:06:34.319
 So many things taking them away from God.

00:06:34.939 --> 00:06:38.120
 So many false gods that would be around saying,

00:06:38.120 --> 00:06:39.959
 this is who you need to worship.

00:06:40.139 --> 00:06:41.879
 This is what you need to do.

00:06:42.620 --> 00:06:45.459
 When Moses is saying, no, if you want to know blessing and favor,

00:06:45.920 --> 00:06:49.560
 you must worship God and him alone.

00:06:50.439 --> 00:06:52.500
 And so as we see here in chapter 10,

00:06:52.560 --> 00:06:56.500
 what we see is a God who shows real compassion,

00:06:57.340 --> 00:07:00.620
 real grace, real mercy towards these people,

00:07:00.720 --> 00:07:02.079
 despite their sin,

00:07:02.079 --> 00:07:06.039
 and calls them to worship him alone.

00:07:06.539 --> 00:07:09.919
 And that's the wonder of what it says to us as well today.

00:07:10.000 --> 00:07:12.959
 That if we want to know blessing and favor from God,

00:07:13.439 --> 00:07:19.639
 we must put our trust in him as Lord and God of all.

00:07:19.659 --> 00:07:24.039
 That we can only love him because he first loved us.

00:07:24.759 --> 00:07:27.379
 And that's what he shows in this passage.

00:07:27.379 --> 00:07:32.180
 Many of God's people have spoken about how God has blessed them

00:07:32.180 --> 00:07:34.759
 as they have been faithful to him

00:07:34.759 --> 00:07:37.899
 in many difficult and different situations.

00:07:38.500 --> 00:07:41.540
 Take, for example, a man called George Muller.

00:07:43.219 --> 00:07:47.259
 He lived in the 1800s, 1805 to 1898.

00:07:48.100 --> 00:07:51.360
 And you may have heard many accounts of George Muller.

00:07:51.920 --> 00:07:54.800
 He built orphanages down in England.

00:07:54.800 --> 00:07:59.900
 And many, many children passed through these orphanages.

00:08:00.540 --> 00:08:02.680
 Many were helped, given food,

00:08:03.160 --> 00:08:05.600
 given a place to sleep, a place to rest,

00:08:05.660 --> 00:08:10.160
 but also given and shown the love of Jesus Christ.

00:08:10.980 --> 00:08:13.900
 And he did this without a personal salary.

00:08:14.480 --> 00:08:17.819
 It wasn't like he was being paid directly for doing this.

00:08:18.519 --> 00:08:21.540
 And he relied on God to supply money

00:08:21.540 --> 00:08:23.560
 and to supply food.

00:08:23.560 --> 00:08:26.959
 And there's remarkable accounts of how they prayed

00:08:26.959 --> 00:08:29.500
 when there was nothing and God provided.

00:08:31.000 --> 00:08:33.759
 And he was a man of faith.

00:08:34.500 --> 00:08:36.919
 And God rewarded that faith.

00:08:37.000 --> 00:08:39.659
 And he had a motto on his desk.

00:08:40.519 --> 00:08:44.179
 He had a motto that he looked at for many, many years,

00:08:44.240 --> 00:08:47.860
 over many years of wondering where things would come from,

00:08:47.980 --> 00:08:49.679
 wondering how they were going to go on.

00:08:49.679 --> 00:08:54.419
 This motto brought comfort and strength in times of need.

00:08:55.019 --> 00:08:56.479
 And the motto was this.

00:08:57.159 --> 00:09:00.179
 It matters to him about you.

00:09:00.819 --> 00:09:03.639
 It matters to him about you.

00:09:03.839 --> 00:09:05.039
 Just a few words.

00:09:05.139 --> 00:09:09.519
 And it was based on 1 Peter 5, verse 7,

00:09:10.319 --> 00:09:11.259
 where it says that,

00:09:11.259 --> 00:09:13.500
 Cast your cares upon the Lord,

00:09:13.620 --> 00:09:15.960
 for he cares for you.

00:09:16.159 --> 00:09:17.419
 So he had this motto,

00:09:17.519 --> 00:09:20.919
 it matters to him, to God, about you.

00:09:21.720 --> 00:09:23.559
 That he knew that God was with him.

00:09:23.580 --> 00:09:26.319
 And he saw this in many different ways.

00:09:26.360 --> 00:09:30.379
 And he testified of this over many, many years.

00:09:30.419 --> 00:09:31.659
 Over all his life,

00:09:31.700 --> 00:09:35.159
 he testified to the goodness of God.

00:09:35.159 --> 00:09:38.240
 And that's the kind of testimony that Moses is wanting,

00:09:38.639 --> 00:09:40.839
 the people of God then to have,

00:09:41.279 --> 00:09:42.860
 and for ourselves to have.

00:09:43.439 --> 00:09:46.879
 That here is a God that we can rely upon.

00:09:47.339 --> 00:09:50.059
 A God who we matter to.

00:09:50.659 --> 00:09:53.480
 It matters to him about you.

00:09:54.059 --> 00:09:56.919
 That is a wonderful way of looking at life.

00:09:57.019 --> 00:09:59.699
 It matters to him about you.

00:09:59.700 --> 00:10:04.440
 But that love of God then leads us to ask,

00:10:04.560 --> 00:10:06.840
 well, how do we give back to him?

00:10:06.920 --> 00:10:08.800
 What do we show to him?

00:10:09.780 --> 00:10:14.680
 And as we take up our reading here in verse 12 of chapter 10,

00:10:15.620 --> 00:10:17.140
 Moses is really showing,

00:10:17.280 --> 00:10:20.060
 this is just how much you matter to him.

00:10:20.780 --> 00:10:23.400
 And there's three things we want to take from this passage.

00:10:23.520 --> 00:10:26.080
 The first thing is that there's a requirement

00:10:26.080 --> 00:10:27.920
 put before the people.

00:10:27.919 --> 00:10:32.719
 Then there's a reminder given to them about who God is.

00:10:32.799 --> 00:10:35.779
 And then there's a response called for.

00:10:36.240 --> 00:10:38.500
 There's a requirement, there's a reminder,

00:10:39.179 --> 00:10:41.899
 and there's a response called for.

00:10:42.719 --> 00:10:46.179
 And so the reminder that we see is in verse 12.

00:10:47.360 --> 00:10:52.120
 And now, Israel, what does the Lord require of you?

00:10:52.500 --> 00:10:53.279
 There's a question.

00:10:53.279 --> 00:11:00.559
 And this question comes just after they've been reminded about

00:11:00.559 --> 00:11:07.519
 how God has been almost kept from pouring out his wrath upon them.

00:11:08.220 --> 00:11:11.919
 In verse 10 and 11, it says,

00:11:11.919 --> 00:11:15.879
 I myself stayed in the mountain that first time for 40 days and 40 nights.

00:11:16.399 --> 00:11:19.439
 And the Lord listened to me that time also.

00:11:19.559 --> 00:11:23.139
 The Lord was unwilling to destroy you.

00:11:24.319 --> 00:11:25.139
 He could have.

00:11:25.419 --> 00:11:28.439
 That's the reality of what sin brings.

00:11:28.559 --> 00:11:29.959
 It can bring devastation.

00:11:30.059 --> 00:11:32.219
 It can bring destruction upon us.

00:11:32.299 --> 00:11:34.479
 The wages of sin is death.

00:11:34.559 --> 00:11:35.879
 And so it's in light of this,

00:11:35.879 --> 00:11:39.759
 the Lord was unwilling to destroy you.

00:11:40.259 --> 00:11:41.639
 And then it goes on in verse 11.

00:11:41.740 --> 00:11:42.840
 And the Lord said to me,

00:11:42.919 --> 00:11:45.919
 Arise, go on your journey at the head of the people

00:11:45.919 --> 00:11:48.759
 so that they may go in and possess the land

00:11:48.759 --> 00:11:51.740
 which I swore to their fathers to give them.

00:11:52.259 --> 00:11:56.000
 So you see, this comes in the midst of mercy.

00:11:56.659 --> 00:11:59.500
 It comes in the midst of God's grace.

00:11:59.500 --> 00:12:03.299
 God did not destroy them as he could have.

00:12:03.299 --> 00:12:05.879
 And then it comes into verse 12.

00:12:05.939 --> 00:12:06.839
 And now, Israel,

00:12:07.399 --> 00:12:11.539
 what does the Lord your God require of you?

00:12:12.159 --> 00:12:13.579
 So there's a challenge.

00:12:14.579 --> 00:12:15.759
 God loves you,

00:12:16.079 --> 00:12:20.259
 but what does that mean in terms of how you view God?

00:12:21.039 --> 00:12:22.519
 And then it gives us an answer

00:12:22.519 --> 00:12:24.759
 as to what the Lord requires of you.

00:12:24.759 --> 00:12:27.059
 But to fear the Lord your God,

00:12:27.379 --> 00:12:29.620
 to walk in all his ways,

00:12:30.659 --> 00:12:31.639
 to love him,

00:12:31.899 --> 00:12:32.699
 to serve him,

00:12:32.700 --> 00:12:34.320
 to keep his word.

00:12:34.700 --> 00:12:37.320
 There's a summary of these things there.

00:12:37.720 --> 00:12:38.940
 What does the Lord require?

00:12:39.040 --> 00:12:39.860
 To fear the Lord,

00:12:40.360 --> 00:12:41.240
 walk in his ways,

00:12:41.400 --> 00:12:41.860
 love him,

00:12:42.080 --> 00:12:42.620
 serve him,

00:12:43.200 --> 00:12:44.600
 and keep his word.

00:12:45.500 --> 00:12:47.120
 And that's not just for their day.

00:12:47.740 --> 00:12:49.480
 There's a great reminder to us

00:12:49.480 --> 00:12:52.580
 of what the Lord requires of ourselves today.

00:12:53.580 --> 00:12:54.520
 Fear the Lord.

00:12:55.320 --> 00:12:56.980
 That means a right reverence

00:12:56.980 --> 00:12:58.480
 towards God.

00:12:58.980 --> 00:13:00.140
 Walk in his ways.

00:13:00.139 --> 00:13:01.559
 Love him.

00:13:01.559 --> 00:13:02.879
 Serve him.

00:13:03.299 --> 00:13:04.519
 Keep his word.

00:13:04.600 --> 00:13:09.259
 Moses was the leader assigned to the people.

00:13:09.259 --> 00:13:10.819
 Then God had chosen him

00:13:10.819 --> 00:13:13.019
 to lead the people out of Egypt

00:13:13.019 --> 00:13:14.700
 into the promised land.

00:13:15.500 --> 00:13:17.299
 And so Moses is one who is,

00:13:17.519 --> 00:13:19.700
 he is almost speaking to himself there,

00:13:19.819 --> 00:13:20.700
 first and foremost.

00:13:20.799 --> 00:13:21.879
 He's part of this.

00:13:22.620 --> 00:13:23.860
 He was to lead them.

00:13:24.259 --> 00:13:24.480
 Well,

00:13:24.480 --> 00:13:26.159
 he was to live like this as well,

00:13:26.259 --> 00:13:27.220
 to fear the Lord,

00:13:27.319 --> 00:13:28.379
 to walk in his ways,

00:13:28.480 --> 00:13:29.019
 to love him,

00:13:29.200 --> 00:13:29.779
 serve him,

00:13:29.879 --> 00:13:31.419
 and keep his word.

00:13:31.419 --> 00:13:34.179
 It wasn't just applying to the people.

00:13:34.740 --> 00:13:37.059
 It was applying to himself.

00:13:38.979 --> 00:13:42.000
 And that is the way that we are to live.

00:13:42.319 --> 00:13:46.139
 That is the way that God is asking of ourselves today as well.

00:13:46.919 --> 00:13:48.439
 From every one of us,

00:13:48.579 --> 00:13:50.459
 this is how we are to live.

00:13:50.519 --> 00:13:54.439
 We are to see the reality of the situation that we are in,

00:13:54.799 --> 00:13:57.899
 where the Lord could destroy us in our sin,

00:13:57.899 --> 00:13:59.779
 but where the Lord is merciful,

00:13:59.959 --> 00:14:02.679
 but the Lord makes demands of us.

00:14:02.699 --> 00:14:06.519
 And that's to come from the top right down to the bottom.

00:14:08.000 --> 00:14:10.539
 Tomorrow it may be that we have a new prime minister

00:14:10.539 --> 00:14:12.220
 over us as a nation.

00:14:13.199 --> 00:14:14.559
 And you would love it

00:14:14.559 --> 00:14:17.000
 if this is what was being spoken of

00:14:17.000 --> 00:14:19.039
 as a new leader is appointed.

00:14:19.699 --> 00:14:21.699
 What does the Lord require of you

00:14:21.699 --> 00:14:23.740
 as you become prime minister?

00:14:24.179 --> 00:14:25.439
 To fear the Lord,

00:14:25.579 --> 00:14:26.620
 to walk in his ways,

00:14:26.720 --> 00:14:27.220
 to love him,

00:14:27.220 --> 00:14:27.820
 and serve him,

00:14:27.860 --> 00:14:28.899
 and keep his word,

00:14:29.080 --> 00:14:30.279
 it would be wonderful.

00:14:30.399 --> 00:14:32.480
 And we pray that a day would come

00:14:32.480 --> 00:14:33.560
 when that would be so.

00:14:34.540 --> 00:14:37.259
 But it's required of all leaders,

00:14:38.000 --> 00:14:39.899
 of all with responsibility.

00:14:41.139 --> 00:14:43.259
 There's a man called Max Dupree.

00:14:43.759 --> 00:14:45.399
 He was an American businessman

00:14:45.399 --> 00:14:48.139
 and a Christian as well.

00:14:49.220 --> 00:14:52.259
 He died in 2017, I think it was,

00:14:52.320 --> 00:14:53.960
 but he wrote many books,

00:14:54.500 --> 00:14:56.580
 and especially about what it meant to be.

00:14:56.580 --> 00:14:57.259
 He said,

00:14:57.259 --> 00:14:57.960
 a good leader.

00:14:57.960 --> 00:14:58.639
 And he said this,

00:14:58.720 --> 00:15:00.420
 the first responsibility of a leader

00:15:00.420 --> 00:15:02.600
 is to define reality.

00:15:03.740 --> 00:15:05.280
 Leaders need to have a good picture

00:15:05.280 --> 00:15:07.300
 of what is really going on around them.

00:15:07.780 --> 00:15:09.220
 And they need to help others

00:15:09.220 --> 00:15:12.080
 take an honest look at this reality.

00:15:13.040 --> 00:15:15.259
 That is what's required of a leader,

00:15:15.379 --> 00:15:16.020
 he was saying,

00:15:16.139 --> 00:15:19.500
 to know the reality of what's going on around

00:15:19.500 --> 00:15:21.779
 and to look at this reality.

00:15:22.659 --> 00:15:22.940
 Well,

00:15:23.000 --> 00:15:26.659
 Moses was aware of the reality of the situation.

00:15:27.299 --> 00:15:29.559
 He was aware of what was going on around

00:15:29.559 --> 00:15:31.620
 and what was going on ahead of them

00:15:31.620 --> 00:15:33.559
 as they were going into the promised land.

00:15:34.179 --> 00:15:37.659
 He was aware that they could be so easily led astray.

00:15:38.220 --> 00:15:39.639
 The reality of idols,

00:15:39.919 --> 00:15:41.460
 the reality of temptations,

00:15:42.460 --> 00:15:46.039
 the reality of people being led away from God.

00:15:46.039 --> 00:15:49.199
 He was aware of the reality of all of these things.

00:15:50.500 --> 00:15:53.919
 But he was also aware of the reality of what God could do.

00:15:55.439 --> 00:15:58.539
 He was aware of the reality of who God is.

00:15:59.819 --> 00:16:01.459
 And you just have to turn back another,

00:16:01.679 --> 00:16:02.559
 to chapter 8,

00:16:02.639 --> 00:16:03.219
 verse 11.

00:16:04.019 --> 00:16:05.059
 And there you see,

00:16:05.620 --> 00:16:06.719
 as he was speaking

00:16:06.719 --> 00:16:10.299
 to the people before they go into the promised land,

00:16:10.299 --> 00:16:11.159
 what does it say?

00:16:11.659 --> 00:16:12.339
 In chapter 8,

00:16:12.399 --> 00:16:12.899
 verse 11,

00:16:13.059 --> 00:16:15.779
 take care lest you forget the Lord your God

00:16:15.779 --> 00:16:17.459
 by not keeping his commandments

00:16:17.459 --> 00:16:19.819
 and his rules and his statutes

00:16:19.819 --> 00:16:22.179
 which I command you today.

00:16:22.319 --> 00:16:24.079
 This is the word of God through Moses.

00:16:24.259 --> 00:16:25.899
 Take care lest you forget

00:16:25.899 --> 00:16:28.120
 the Lord your God.

00:16:28.959 --> 00:16:31.599
 Because that's how easily it happens.

00:16:31.719 --> 00:16:34.179
 That's how quickly it happens.

00:16:34.240 --> 00:16:35.379
 And you see it does

00:16:35.379 --> 00:16:36.819
 as you go on.

00:16:36.820 --> 00:16:41.480
 But God is giving a requirement to them here.

00:16:42.460 --> 00:16:44.760
 And what is required is not to follow Moses.

00:16:45.760 --> 00:16:47.620
 Good, I lead it as Moses was.

00:16:47.740 --> 00:16:49.580
 But it's to follow God.

00:16:50.100 --> 00:16:51.040
 To follow him.

00:16:52.000 --> 00:16:53.400
 To fear God.

00:16:53.580 --> 00:16:54.600
 To love God.

00:16:54.660 --> 00:16:55.680
 To walk in his ways.

00:16:55.800 --> 00:16:56.640
 To serve him.

00:16:57.180 --> 00:16:59.220
 And to keep his word.

00:17:00.540 --> 00:17:02.380
 And what does he require of us today?

00:17:03.660 --> 00:17:05.680
 Exactly the same thing.

00:17:05.680 --> 00:17:10.000
 To be aware of the reality in which we live.

00:17:10.400 --> 00:17:11.539
 A fallen world.

00:17:12.000 --> 00:17:13.220
 A sinful world.

00:17:13.820 --> 00:17:17.140
 But to be aware too of the reality of a great

00:17:17.140 --> 00:17:19.180
 and an awesome God.

00:17:19.740 --> 00:17:23.160
 A God who is far more powerful than we are.

00:17:24.100 --> 00:17:26.720
 And so there's a requirement first.

00:17:27.820 --> 00:17:30.340
 The second thing we see here is a reminder.

00:17:30.339 --> 00:17:35.059
 And what a powerful reminder it is for us as well.

00:17:35.059 --> 00:17:37.220
 In verse 14 and 15.

00:17:38.799 --> 00:17:42.179
 Behold to the Lord your God belong heaven

00:17:42.179 --> 00:17:44.059
 and heaven of heavens.

00:17:44.259 --> 00:17:46.720
 The earth and all that is in it.

00:17:47.439 --> 00:17:50.619
 Yet the Lord set his heart and love

00:17:50.619 --> 00:17:53.699
 on your fathers and chose their offspring

00:17:53.699 --> 00:17:55.199
 after them.

00:17:55.500 --> 00:17:57.039
 You above all peoples

00:17:57.039 --> 00:17:59.879
 as you are this day.

00:18:01.339 --> 00:18:03.399
 Moses here reminds the people

00:18:03.399 --> 00:18:05.439
 of who God is.

00:18:06.279 --> 00:18:08.139
 And he does it in two ways.

00:18:09.179 --> 00:18:10.439
 The first thing is you see

00:18:10.439 --> 00:18:12.299
 the enormity of God.

00:18:12.419 --> 00:18:13.839
 The awesomeness of God.

00:18:14.399 --> 00:18:16.019
 Behold the Lord your God.

00:18:16.259 --> 00:18:18.359
 To the Lord your God belong heaven

00:18:18.359 --> 00:18:19.939
 and heaven of heavens.

00:18:20.459 --> 00:18:23.319
 The earth and all that is in it.

00:18:24.259 --> 00:18:24.819
 Everything.

00:18:24.819 --> 00:18:24.939
 Everything.

00:18:25.879 --> 00:18:27.000
 The world.

00:18:27.339 --> 00:18:28.960
 And all of the creation

00:18:28.960 --> 00:18:30.319
 that we see around us

00:18:30.319 --> 00:18:32.079
 belongs to God.

00:18:32.139 --> 00:18:33.879
 Just like Psalm 96.

00:18:34.119 --> 00:18:35.220
 For great is the Lord

00:18:35.220 --> 00:18:37.319
 and greatly to be praised

00:18:37.319 --> 00:18:38.379
 because he made

00:18:38.379 --> 00:18:39.379
 the heavens

00:18:39.379 --> 00:18:41.139
 and earth.

00:18:41.839 --> 00:18:43.759
 This is the reality of God.

00:18:44.460 --> 00:18:45.980
 This is the reality of God

00:18:45.980 --> 00:18:46.759
 to Moses

00:18:46.759 --> 00:18:48.539
 that he is showing to the people

00:18:48.539 --> 00:18:49.539
 then that he is showing

00:18:49.539 --> 00:18:51.039
 to us today.

00:18:51.039 --> 00:18:53.059
 To God belong all

00:18:53.059 --> 00:18:54.599
 of these things.

00:18:55.639 --> 00:18:56.899
 The heavens declare

00:18:56.899 --> 00:18:58.659
 the glory of God.

00:18:59.279 --> 00:18:59.980
 We see it

00:18:59.980 --> 00:19:01.700
 all around us.

00:19:02.279 --> 00:19:03.139
 His creation

00:19:03.139 --> 00:19:05.000
 and the wonder of it.

00:19:05.139 --> 00:19:05.819
 So God is

00:19:05.819 --> 00:19:06.819
 an awesome

00:19:06.819 --> 00:19:07.759
 a powerful

00:19:07.759 --> 00:19:08.500
 God

00:19:08.500 --> 00:19:09.799
 a creator God

00:19:09.799 --> 00:19:11.200
 as we see in verse 14.

00:19:11.700 --> 00:19:12.740
 But then you go into

00:19:12.740 --> 00:19:13.639
 verse 15.

00:19:13.640 --> 00:19:15.940
 Yet the Lord

00:19:15.940 --> 00:19:17.300
 set his heart

00:19:17.300 --> 00:19:18.340
 in love

00:19:18.340 --> 00:19:19.240
 on your fathers

00:19:19.240 --> 00:19:20.400
 and chose their offspring

00:19:20.400 --> 00:19:21.100
 after them.

00:19:21.480 --> 00:19:22.960
 You above all peoples

00:19:22.960 --> 00:19:24.240
 as you are

00:19:24.240 --> 00:19:25.400
 this day.

00:19:26.259 --> 00:19:27.480
 It's amazing that you think

00:19:27.480 --> 00:19:28.680
 as you are

00:19:28.680 --> 00:19:29.400
 this day.

00:19:30.320 --> 00:19:31.240
 How were they

00:19:31.240 --> 00:19:32.340
 in that day?

00:19:33.120 --> 00:19:34.220
 They had just come

00:19:34.220 --> 00:19:35.240
 from a place

00:19:35.240 --> 00:19:36.100
 where they had made

00:19:36.100 --> 00:19:37.800
 the golden calf.

00:19:38.360 --> 00:19:39.300
 They just come

00:19:39.300 --> 00:19:39.980
 from a place

00:19:39.980 --> 00:19:40.540
 where they had been

00:19:40.540 --> 00:19:41.560
 disobedient

00:19:41.560 --> 00:19:42.560
 to God

00:19:42.559 --> 00:19:43.399
 where they had turned

00:19:43.399 --> 00:19:44.119
 their back

00:19:44.119 --> 00:19:44.980
 on God

00:19:44.980 --> 00:19:45.899
 and made their own

00:19:45.899 --> 00:19:46.359
 God

00:19:46.359 --> 00:19:47.359
 to worship.

00:19:48.720 --> 00:19:50.059
 Yet God says

00:19:50.059 --> 00:19:50.759
 yet

00:19:50.759 --> 00:19:51.679
 the Lord

00:19:51.679 --> 00:19:52.899
 has set his love

00:19:52.899 --> 00:19:54.740
 on your fathers

00:19:54.740 --> 00:19:55.779
 and upon you

00:19:55.779 --> 00:19:58.319
 despite how you are.

00:19:59.519 --> 00:20:00.379
 It's amazing.

00:20:00.539 --> 00:20:01.539
 It's a powerful

00:20:01.539 --> 00:20:02.960
 it's a wonderful

00:20:02.960 --> 00:20:04.259
 reminder

00:20:04.259 --> 00:20:05.419
 with such care

00:20:05.419 --> 00:20:06.679
 and attention

00:20:06.679 --> 00:20:07.919
 God has given

00:20:07.919 --> 00:20:09.139
 to us

00:20:09.139 --> 00:20:10.379
 to you

00:20:10.379 --> 00:20:11.500
 and to me.

00:20:12.559 --> 00:20:13.059
 the people

00:20:13.059 --> 00:20:13.779
 are called

00:20:13.779 --> 00:20:14.679
 there to follow

00:20:14.679 --> 00:20:15.819
 and worship

00:20:15.819 --> 00:20:16.460
 God

00:20:16.460 --> 00:20:18.200
 not just because

00:20:18.200 --> 00:20:19.359
 he rescued them

00:20:19.359 --> 00:20:21.599
 out of Egypt

00:20:21.599 --> 00:20:23.519
 not just because

00:20:23.519 --> 00:20:24.319
 of the wonders

00:20:24.319 --> 00:20:25.319
 that they were

00:20:25.319 --> 00:20:26.259
 seeing around them

00:20:26.259 --> 00:20:27.099
 not out of a sense

00:20:27.099 --> 00:20:27.919
 of guilt

00:20:27.919 --> 00:20:29.059
 although

00:20:29.059 --> 00:20:30.259
 many would say

00:20:30.259 --> 00:20:30.659
 that

00:20:30.659 --> 00:20:34.619
 that is how

00:20:34.619 --> 00:20:35.519
 Christians come

00:20:35.519 --> 00:20:36.460
 to worship

00:20:36.460 --> 00:20:37.419
 the Lord Jesus

00:20:37.419 --> 00:20:38.339
 it's out of a sense

00:20:38.339 --> 00:20:38.980
 of guilt

00:20:38.980 --> 00:20:40.079
 that's not how

00:20:40.079 --> 00:20:40.539
 we come

00:20:40.539 --> 00:20:41.099
 to worship

00:20:41.099 --> 00:20:41.579
 God

00:20:41.579 --> 00:20:42.799
 it isn't either

00:20:42.799 --> 00:20:43.839
 because God

00:20:43.839 --> 00:20:44.640
 commands

00:20:44.640 --> 00:20:45.720
 as if we've got

00:20:45.720 --> 00:20:46.559
 no choice

00:20:46.559 --> 00:20:47.700
 in the matter

00:20:47.700 --> 00:20:48.720
 God doesn't just

00:20:48.720 --> 00:20:49.400
 dictate

00:20:49.400 --> 00:20:50.539
 to us

00:20:50.539 --> 00:20:50.900
 no

00:20:50.900 --> 00:20:52.420
 instead

00:20:52.420 --> 00:20:53.559
 the Lord

00:20:53.559 --> 00:20:54.420
 is powerful

00:20:54.420 --> 00:20:55.360
 the Lord

00:20:55.360 --> 00:20:56.000
 is loving

00:20:56.000 --> 00:20:56.880
 the Lord

00:20:56.880 --> 00:20:57.720
 is gracious

00:20:57.720 --> 00:20:59.299
 towards us

00:20:59.299 --> 00:21:01.500
 and when we see

00:21:01.500 --> 00:21:02.420
 the love

00:21:02.420 --> 00:21:03.059
 of God

00:21:03.059 --> 00:21:04.620
 when we realize

00:21:04.620 --> 00:21:05.539
 the grace

00:21:05.539 --> 00:21:06.299
 of God

00:21:06.299 --> 00:21:07.359
 as the people

00:21:07.359 --> 00:21:08.200
 here have seen

00:21:08.200 --> 00:21:08.399
 it

00:21:08.399 --> 00:21:10.159
 making the golden

00:21:10.159 --> 00:21:10.819
 calf

00:21:10.819 --> 00:21:11.879
 and yet in

00:21:11.879 --> 00:21:12.700
 verse 10

00:21:12.700 --> 00:21:13.359
 it says

00:21:13.359 --> 00:21:13.779
 the Lord

00:21:13.779 --> 00:21:14.599
 was unwilling

00:21:14.599 --> 00:21:15.960
 to destroy

00:21:15.960 --> 00:21:16.419
 you

00:21:16.419 --> 00:21:17.680
 they see

00:21:17.680 --> 00:21:18.220
 the love

00:21:18.220 --> 00:21:18.839
 of God

00:21:18.839 --> 00:21:20.359
 and it is

00:21:20.359 --> 00:21:20.980
 that love

00:21:20.980 --> 00:21:21.500
 of God

00:21:21.500 --> 00:21:22.059
 that surely

00:21:22.059 --> 00:21:23.399
 moves them

00:21:23.399 --> 00:21:24.200
 to see

00:21:24.200 --> 00:21:25.059
 their need

00:21:25.059 --> 00:21:25.480
 of him

00:21:25.480 --> 00:21:27.039
 and surely

00:21:27.039 --> 00:21:27.899
 it is that love

00:21:27.899 --> 00:21:28.500
 of God

00:21:28.500 --> 00:21:29.480
 that moves

00:21:29.480 --> 00:21:30.519
 us to see

00:21:30.519 --> 00:21:31.419
 how much

00:21:31.419 --> 00:21:31.839
 we need

00:21:31.839 --> 00:21:32.839
 God as well

00:21:32.839 --> 00:21:34.799
 that despite

00:21:34.799 --> 00:21:36.139
 our sin

00:21:36.140 --> 00:21:37.720
 that despite

00:21:37.720 --> 00:21:38.840
 all that we

00:21:38.840 --> 00:21:39.520
 do that is

00:21:39.520 --> 00:21:39.980
 wrong

00:21:39.980 --> 00:21:41.520
 that despite

00:21:41.520 --> 00:21:42.660
 our turning

00:21:42.660 --> 00:21:43.320
 our back

00:21:43.320 --> 00:21:43.840
 on him

00:21:43.840 --> 00:21:45.080
 almost again

00:21:45.080 --> 00:21:45.759
 and again

00:21:45.759 --> 00:21:46.420
 and again

00:21:46.420 --> 00:21:48.380
 that yet

00:21:48.380 --> 00:21:50.120
 he has shown

00:21:50.120 --> 00:21:51.180
 great love

00:21:51.180 --> 00:21:52.180
 towards us

00:21:52.180 --> 00:21:53.300
 because he is

00:21:53.300 --> 00:21:53.920
 a covenant

00:21:53.920 --> 00:21:54.480
 God

00:21:54.480 --> 00:21:55.640
 a covenant

00:21:55.640 --> 00:21:56.680
 is a promise

00:21:56.680 --> 00:21:58.300
 a promise

00:21:58.300 --> 00:21:59.120
 from God

00:21:59.120 --> 00:22:00.420
 and it is that

00:22:00.420 --> 00:22:01.400
 covenant love

00:22:01.400 --> 00:22:02.300
 that God

00:22:02.300 --> 00:22:03.320
 shows again

00:22:03.320 --> 00:22:04.240
 and again

00:22:04.240 --> 00:22:04.820
 and again

00:22:04.820 --> 00:22:05.800
 throughout his word

00:22:05.799 --> 00:22:07.099
 the steadfast love

00:22:07.099 --> 00:22:07.680
 of God

00:22:07.680 --> 00:22:08.940
 as the psalmist

00:22:08.940 --> 00:22:09.839
 so often

00:22:09.839 --> 00:22:10.500
 says

00:22:10.500 --> 00:22:12.299
 that unchanging

00:22:12.299 --> 00:22:13.720
 love of God

00:22:13.720 --> 00:22:14.519
 despite

00:22:14.519 --> 00:22:16.359
 our changeableness

00:22:16.359 --> 00:22:17.659
 in this world

00:22:17.659 --> 00:22:19.119
 so that as it

00:22:19.119 --> 00:22:19.839
 says there

00:22:19.839 --> 00:22:21.639
 in verse

00:22:21.639 --> 00:22:23.700
 15

00:22:23.700 --> 00:22:25.099
 you above all

00:22:25.099 --> 00:22:25.619
 peoples

00:22:25.619 --> 00:22:26.819
 even as you are

00:22:26.819 --> 00:22:27.779
 this day

00:22:27.779 --> 00:22:28.859
 even as you are

00:22:28.859 --> 00:22:29.639
 this day

00:22:29.639 --> 00:22:32.220
 even as you are

00:22:32.220 --> 00:22:32.960
 even as I am

00:22:32.960 --> 00:22:33.559
 this day

00:22:33.559 --> 00:22:34.620
 sinners

00:22:34.620 --> 00:22:36.519
 falling short

00:22:36.519 --> 00:22:37.700
 of the glory

00:22:37.700 --> 00:22:38.299
 of God

00:22:38.299 --> 00:22:39.319
 again and again

00:22:39.319 --> 00:22:40.680
 and yet

00:22:40.680 --> 00:22:41.200
 we have this

00:22:41.200 --> 00:22:42.340
 powerful reminder

00:22:42.340 --> 00:22:43.600
 of his great

00:22:43.600 --> 00:22:44.039
 love

00:22:44.039 --> 00:22:45.299
 and where do we

00:22:45.299 --> 00:22:46.799
 see this love

00:22:46.799 --> 00:22:48.120
 where do we

00:22:48.120 --> 00:22:49.039
 see this grace

00:22:49.039 --> 00:22:50.039
 shown to us

00:22:50.039 --> 00:22:51.279
 well it says

00:22:51.279 --> 00:22:51.980
 there the Lord

00:22:51.980 --> 00:22:52.600
 was unwilling

00:22:52.600 --> 00:22:53.440
 to destroy

00:22:53.440 --> 00:22:53.880
 them

00:22:53.880 --> 00:22:55.539
 well where do we

00:22:55.539 --> 00:22:56.160
 see it is when we

00:22:56.160 --> 00:22:56.819
 go forward

00:22:56.819 --> 00:22:57.940
 into the New Testament

00:22:57.940 --> 00:22:59.079
 when we go

00:22:59.079 --> 00:23:00.059
 forward and see it

00:23:00.059 --> 00:23:00.659
 in the person

00:23:00.659 --> 00:23:01.960
 of Jesus Christ

00:23:01.960 --> 00:23:03.720
 that God

00:23:03.720 --> 00:23:04.599
 desired that

00:23:04.599 --> 00:23:05.559
 none be lost

00:23:05.559 --> 00:23:06.960
 and how would

00:23:06.960 --> 00:23:07.399
 this be

00:23:07.399 --> 00:23:08.039
 how could

00:23:08.039 --> 00:23:08.759
 this be

00:23:08.759 --> 00:23:10.079
 but that God

00:23:10.079 --> 00:23:11.099
 sent his own

00:23:11.099 --> 00:23:11.619
 son

00:23:11.619 --> 00:23:12.740
 to die

00:23:12.740 --> 00:23:13.679
 for our sin

00:23:13.679 --> 00:23:15.059
 why

00:23:15.059 --> 00:23:15.799
 because he

00:23:15.799 --> 00:23:16.539
 loved us

00:23:16.539 --> 00:23:17.839
 for God

00:23:17.839 --> 00:23:18.539
 so loved

00:23:18.539 --> 00:23:19.119
 the world

00:23:19.119 --> 00:23:20.279
 that he gave

00:23:20.279 --> 00:23:20.879
 his son

00:23:20.879 --> 00:23:22.700
 a remarkable

00:23:22.700 --> 00:23:23.519
 truth

00:23:23.519 --> 00:23:25.139
 and

00:23:25.139 --> 00:23:26.119
 although he's

00:23:26.119 --> 00:23:26.839
 speaking here

00:23:26.839 --> 00:23:27.579
 to the children

00:23:27.579 --> 00:23:28.220
 of Israel

00:23:28.220 --> 00:23:29.079
 as we go

00:23:29.079 --> 00:23:29.700
 forward into

00:23:29.700 --> 00:23:30.420
 the New Testament

00:23:30.420 --> 00:23:31.319
 we are reminded

00:23:31.319 --> 00:23:32.299
 that through

00:23:32.299 --> 00:23:33.279
 faith we are

00:23:33.279 --> 00:23:34.120
 part of these

00:23:34.120 --> 00:23:35.079
 people too

00:23:35.079 --> 00:23:36.960
 1st Peter

00:23:36.960 --> 00:23:37.759
 chapter 2

00:23:37.759 --> 00:23:38.900
 speaks about it

00:23:38.900 --> 00:23:40.200
 but you are

00:23:40.200 --> 00:23:40.839
 a chosen

00:23:40.839 --> 00:23:41.360
 people

00:23:41.360 --> 00:23:41.920
 a royal

00:23:41.920 --> 00:23:42.500
 priesthood

00:23:42.500 --> 00:23:43.000
 a holy

00:23:43.000 --> 00:23:43.380
 nation

00:23:43.380 --> 00:23:44.039
 a people

00:23:44.039 --> 00:23:45.079
 belonging

00:23:45.079 --> 00:23:45.620
 to God

00:23:45.620 --> 00:23:46.059
 that you may

00:23:46.059 --> 00:23:46.920
 declare the

00:23:46.920 --> 00:23:47.579
 praises of

00:23:47.579 --> 00:23:48.000
 him who

00:23:48.000 --> 00:23:48.700
 called you

00:23:48.700 --> 00:23:49.579
 out of

00:23:49.579 --> 00:23:50.019

00:23:50.019 --> 00:23:50.720

00:23:51.960 --> 00:23:53.100
 once

00:23:53.100 --> 00:23:54.180
 you were

00:23:54.180 --> 00:23:54.779
 not a

 people

00:23:55.200 --> 00:23:56.360
 but now

00:23:56.360 --> 00:23:56.880
 you are the

 once

00:23:58.299 --> 00:23:58.599
 you had

 he has

00:24:09.400 --> 00:24:09.960
 shown

00:24:09.960 --> 00:24:10.619
 his

00:24:15.720 --> 00:24:16.339
 Townend

00:24:16.339 --> 00:24:16.660
 in his

00:24:16.660 --> 00:24:17.220
 great hymn

00:24:17.220 --> 00:24:17.539
 said

00:24:17.539 --> 00:24:18.079
 how deep

00:24:18.079 --> 00:24:18.279
 the

00:24:18.279 --> 00:24:18.839
 father's

00:24:18.839 --> 00:24:19.160
 love

00:24:19.160 --> 00:24:19.639
 for us

00:24:19.639 --> 00:24:20.759
 how vast

00:24:20.759 --> 00:24:21.279
 beyond

00:24:21.279 --> 00:24:21.859
 all measure

00:24:21.859 --> 00:24:22.400
 that he

00:24:22.400 --> 00:24:23.079
 should give

00:24:23.079 --> 00:24:24.180
 his only

00:24:24.180 --> 00:24:24.639
 son

00:24:24.639 --> 00:24:25.259
 to make

00:24:25.259 --> 00:24:25.819
 a wretch

00:24:25.819 --> 00:24:26.500
 his treasure

00:24:26.500 --> 00:24:27.880
 why should

00:24:27.880 --> 00:24:28.519
 I gain

00:24:28.519 --> 00:24:29.279
 from his

00:24:29.279 --> 00:24:29.880
 reward

00:24:29.880 --> 00:24:30.960
 I cannot

00:24:30.960 --> 00:24:31.519
 give an

00:24:31.519 --> 00:24:31.900
 answer

00:24:31.900 --> 00:24:33.119
 but this

00:24:33.119 --> 00:24:33.500
 I know

00:24:33.500 --> 00:24:34.079
 with all

00:24:34.079 --> 00:24:34.700
 my heart

00:24:34.700 --> 00:24:35.500
 his wounds

00:24:35.500 --> 00:24:36.720
 have paid

00:24:36.720 --> 00:24:38.099
 my ransom

00:24:38.099 --> 00:24:39.240
 we are

00:24:39.240 --> 00:24:39.779
 reminded

00:24:39.779 --> 00:24:41.059
 so often

00:24:41.059 --> 00:24:41.619
 about the

00:24:41.619 --> 00:24:42.119
 love

00:24:42.119 --> 00:24:43.420
 of God

00:24:43.420 --> 00:24:44.859
 a wonderful

00:24:44.859 --> 00:24:45.339
 love

00:24:45.339 --> 00:24:45.759
 a love

00:24:45.759 --> 00:24:46.680
 like no

00:24:46.680 --> 00:24:47.000
 other

00:24:47.000 --> 00:24:48.759
 we don't

00:24:48.759 --> 00:24:49.680
 deserve it

00:24:49.680 --> 00:24:50.940
 but in

00:24:50.940 --> 00:24:51.320
 mercy

00:24:51.320 --> 00:24:52.700
 he shows

00:24:52.700 --> 00:24:53.019
 it

00:24:53.019 --> 00:24:54.080
 he is

00:24:54.080 --> 00:24:54.600
 the maker

00:24:54.600 --> 00:24:55.519
 of the

00:24:55.519 --> 00:24:55.900
 heaven

00:24:55.900 --> 00:24:56.740
 of heavens

00:24:56.740 --> 00:24:57.680
 the heaven

00:24:57.680 --> 00:24:58.100
 and heaven

00:24:58.100 --> 00:24:58.660
 of heavens

00:24:58.660 --> 00:24:59.299
 the earth

00:24:59.299 --> 00:25:00.360
 and all

00:25:00.360 --> 00:25:00.740
 that is in

00:25:00.740 --> 00:25:00.840
 it

00:25:00.840 --> 00:25:01.180
 he is a

00:25:01.180 --> 00:25:01.580
 powerful

00:25:01.580 --> 00:25:01.960
 he is an

00:25:01.960 --> 00:25:02.380
 awesome

00:25:02.380 --> 00:25:02.940
 God

00:25:02.940 --> 00:25:04.019
 yet the

00:25:04.019 --> 00:25:04.299
 Lord

00:25:04.299 --> 00:25:04.779
 has set

00:25:04.779 --> 00:25:05.279
 his heart

00:25:05.279 --> 00:25:05.880
 on love

00:25:05.880 --> 00:25:08.100
 on his

00:25:08.100 --> 00:25:08.620
 people

00:25:08.620 --> 00:25:09.120
 it's a

00:25:09.120 --> 00:25:09.660
 wonderful

00:25:09.660 --> 00:25:10.840
 reminder

00:25:10.840 --> 00:25:11.180
 we are

00:25:11.180 --> 00:25:11.660
 reminded

00:25:11.660 --> 00:25:12.440
 of God

00:25:12.440 --> 00:25:13.640
 and his

00:25:13.640 --> 00:25:14.140
 love

00:25:14.140 --> 00:25:15.740
 but the

00:25:15.740 --> 00:25:16.259
 third thing

00:25:16.259 --> 00:25:16.520
 that we

00:25:16.520 --> 00:25:17.100
 see here

00:25:17.100 --> 00:25:17.380
 is that

00:25:17.380 --> 00:25:17.680
 this

00:25:17.680 --> 00:25:18.680
 calls

00:25:18.680 --> 00:25:19.100
 for a

00:25:19.100 --> 00:25:19.920
 response

00:25:19.920 --> 00:25:21.180
 this

00:25:21.180 --> 00:25:21.640
 calls

00:25:21.640 --> 00:25:21.980
 for a

00:25:21.980 --> 00:25:22.380
 response

00:25:22.380 --> 00:25:22.680
 and we

00:25:22.680 --> 00:25:23.120
 see this

00:25:23.120 --> 00:25:23.480
 in verse

00:25:23.480 --> 00:25:24.120
 16

00:25:24.120 --> 00:25:25.020
 through to

00:25:25.020 --> 00:25:25.240
 verse

00:25:25.240 --> 00:25:25.960
 22

00:25:25.960 --> 00:25:28.720
 it

00:25:28.720 --> 00:25:29.400
 demands

00:25:29.400 --> 00:25:30.240
 a

00:25:30.240 --> 00:25:31.000
 response

00:25:31.000 --> 00:25:32.940
 we think

00:25:32.940 --> 00:25:33.400
 again of

00:25:33.400 --> 00:25:33.920
 covenant

00:25:33.920 --> 00:25:34.580
 here

00:25:34.580 --> 00:25:35.060
 covenant

00:25:35.060 --> 00:25:35.420
 this

00:25:35.420 --> 00:25:36.240
 bond

00:25:36.240 --> 00:25:36.660
 between

00:25:36.660 --> 00:25:37.120
 God

00:25:37.120 --> 00:25:37.620
 and his

00:25:37.620 --> 00:25:38.200
 people

00:25:38.200 --> 00:25:39.300
 we are

00:25:39.300 --> 00:25:39.700
 reminded

00:25:39.700 --> 00:25:40.200
 of how

00:25:40.200 --> 00:25:40.780
 God

00:25:40.780 --> 00:25:41.640
 always

00:25:41.640 --> 00:25:42.180
 keeps

00:25:42.180 --> 00:25:42.540
 his

00:25:42.540 --> 00:25:43.060
 side

00:25:43.059 --> 00:25:44.319
 and how

00:25:44.319 --> 00:25:44.919
 we so

00:25:44.919 --> 00:25:45.299
 often

00:25:45.299 --> 00:25:46.259
 fail

00:25:46.259 --> 00:25:47.179
 and yet

00:25:47.179 --> 00:25:47.480
 it's an

00:25:47.480 --> 00:25:48.079
 unchanging

00:25:48.079 --> 00:25:48.559
 love

00:25:48.559 --> 00:25:49.639
 despite

00:25:49.639 --> 00:25:50.279
 our

00:25:50.279 --> 00:25:51.240
 disobedience

00:25:51.240 --> 00:25:52.559
 but it

00:25:52.559 --> 00:25:53.200
 calls

00:25:53.200 --> 00:25:53.879
 for a

00:25:53.879 --> 00:25:54.480
 response

00:25:54.480 --> 00:25:54.799
 and that

00:25:54.799 --> 00:25:55.399
 response

00:25:55.399 --> 00:25:55.980
 is seen

00:25:55.980 --> 00:25:57.019

00:25:58.019 --> 00:26:00.839
 circumcise

00:26:00.839 --> 00:26:01.299
 therefore

00:26:01.299 --> 00:26:02.220
 the foreskin

00:26:02.220 --> 00:26:02.679

 that is

00:26:14.920 --> 00:26:15.259
 who

00:26:15.259 --> 00:26:16.320

00:26:20.040 --> 00:26:20.660
 what kind

00:26:20.660 --> 00:26:21.600
 of response

00:26:21.600 --> 00:26:22.900
 is this

00:26:22.900 --> 00:26:24.280
 he's

00:26:24.280 --> 00:26:25.320
 talking to

00:26:25.320 --> 00:26:25.700
 them here

00:26:25.700 --> 00:26:26.020

 be so

00:26:26.800 --> 00:26:27.360
 stubborn

 that

00:26:40.419 --> 00:26:41.539
 circumcision

00:26:41.539 --> 00:26:42.200
 was to

 be

00:26:44.639 --> 00:26:46.220
 it was

00:26:46.220 --> 00:26:46.539
 their

00:26:46.539 --> 00:26:47.139
 sign

00:26:47.139 --> 00:26:47.819
 of

00:26:47.819 --> 00:26:48.339
 belonging

00:26:48.339 --> 00:26:49.179
 to

00:26:49.179 --> 00:26:49.659
 God

00:26:49.659 --> 00:26:50.119
 it was

00:26:50.119 --> 00:26:50.259
 an

00:26:50.259 --> 00:26:50.599
 outward

00:26:50.599 --> 00:26:51.119
 sign

00:26:51.119 --> 00:26:52.379
 to

00:26:52.379 --> 00:26:53.179
 circumcise

00:26:53.179 --> 00:26:54.000
 the foreskin

00:26:54.000 --> 00:26:54.460
 was an

00:26:54.460 --> 00:26:54.779
 outward

00:26:54.779 --> 00:26:55.339
 sign

00:26:55.339 --> 00:26:57.039
 but here

00:26:57.039 --> 00:26:57.399
 God

00:26:57.399 --> 00:26:57.960
 is saying

00:26:57.960 --> 00:26:58.859
 circumcise

00:26:58.859 --> 00:26:59.579
 the heart

00:26:59.579 --> 00:27:01.259
 and so

00:27:01.259 --> 00:27:02.119
 how could

00:27:02.119 --> 00:27:02.639
 they possibly

00:27:02.639 --> 00:27:03.179
 do this

00:27:03.179 --> 00:27:03.679
 it wasn't

00:27:03.679 --> 00:27:04.319
 to be done

00:27:04.319 --> 00:27:04.619
 in a

00:27:04.619 --> 00:27:05.000
 physical

00:27:05.000 --> 00:27:05.460
 way

00:27:05.460 --> 00:27:06.539
 but it's

00:27:06.539 --> 00:27:06.759
 saying

00:27:06.759 --> 00:27:07.139
 it's not

00:27:07.139 --> 00:27:07.659
 just to be

00:27:07.659 --> 00:27:08.679
 outwardly

00:27:08.680 --> 00:27:09.019
 that they

00:27:09.019 --> 00:27:09.140
 shall

00:27:09.140 --> 00:27:09.799
 change

00:27:09.799 --> 00:27:11.000
 the

00:27:11.000 --> 00:27:11.440
 change

00:27:11.440 --> 00:27:11.720
 is to

00:27:11.720 --> 00:27:11.960
 be

00:27:11.960 --> 00:27:12.560
 inward

00:27:12.560 --> 00:27:13.480
 the

00:27:13.480 --> 00:27:13.820
 change

00:27:13.820 --> 00:27:14.100
 is to

00:27:14.100 --> 00:27:14.240
 be

00:27:14.240 --> 00:27:14.640
 within

00:27:14.640 --> 00:27:15.360
 your

00:27:15.360 --> 00:27:15.960
 heart

00:27:15.960 --> 00:27:17.580
 because

00:27:17.580 --> 00:27:17.900
 we can

00:27:17.900 --> 00:27:18.539
 so often

00:27:18.539 --> 00:27:19.340
 be

00:27:19.340 --> 00:27:19.779
 stubborn

00:27:19.779 --> 00:27:21.680
 what does

00:27:21.680 --> 00:27:22.060
 it mean

00:27:22.060 --> 00:27:22.420
 to be

00:27:22.420 --> 00:27:22.860
 stubborn

00:27:22.860 --> 00:27:24.160
 I'm sure

00:27:24.160 --> 00:27:24.440
 I don't

00:27:24.440 --> 00:27:24.720
 have to

00:27:24.720 --> 00:27:25.500
 explain it

00:27:25.500 --> 00:27:25.860
 to you

00:27:25.860 --> 00:27:26.460
 I'm

00:27:26.460 --> 00:27:26.880
 stubborn

00:27:26.880 --> 00:27:27.799
 for many

00:27:27.799 --> 00:27:28.299
 of you

00:27:28.299 --> 00:27:29.360
 are stubborn

00:27:29.360 --> 00:27:29.840
 we have

00:27:29.840 --> 00:27:30.019
 it

00:27:30.019 --> 00:27:31.120
 by nature

00:27:31.120 --> 00:27:32.940
 in our

00:27:32.940 --> 00:27:33.880
 stubbornness

00:27:33.880 --> 00:27:34.660
 there's an

00:27:34.660 --> 00:27:35.640
 unwillingness

00:27:35.640 --> 00:27:36.240
 to do

00:27:36.240 --> 00:27:36.740
 things

00:27:36.740 --> 00:27:37.600
 any way

00:27:37.599 --> 00:27:37.899
 but the

00:27:37.899 --> 00:27:38.079
 way

00:27:38.079 --> 00:27:38.439
 that we

00:27:38.439 --> 00:27:38.859
 want

00:27:38.859 --> 00:27:39.839
 thinking

00:27:39.839 --> 00:27:40.439
 that we

00:27:40.439 --> 00:27:40.859
 know

00:27:40.859 --> 00:27:41.799
 better

00:27:41.799 --> 00:27:43.119
 and that

00:27:43.119 --> 00:27:43.599
 was certainly

00:27:43.599 --> 00:27:44.139
 the case

00:27:44.139 --> 00:27:44.579
 with the

00:27:44.579 --> 00:27:44.939
 Lord's

00:27:44.939 --> 00:27:45.299
 people

00:27:45.299 --> 00:27:45.500
 in

00:27:45.500 --> 00:27:45.859
 Moses'

00:27:46.179 --> 00:27:46.379
 day

00:27:46.379 --> 00:27:47.719
 it was

00:27:47.719 --> 00:27:48.159
 with

00:27:48.159 --> 00:27:48.559
 Moses

00:27:48.559 --> 00:27:49.079
 himself

00:27:49.079 --> 00:27:49.579
 you see

00:27:49.579 --> 00:27:49.740
 it

00:27:49.740 --> 00:27:50.379
 in his

00:27:50.379 --> 00:27:50.579
 own

00:27:50.579 --> 00:27:51.359
 experiences

00:27:51.359 --> 00:27:52.059
 in life

00:27:52.059 --> 00:27:54.119
 but God

00:27:54.119 --> 00:27:54.740
 is calling

00:27:54.740 --> 00:27:55.139
 them here

00:27:55.139 --> 00:27:55.879
 no longer

00:27:55.879 --> 00:27:56.679
 to be

00:27:56.679 --> 00:27:57.179
 stubborn

00:27:57.179 --> 00:27:58.419
 like this

00:27:58.419 --> 00:28:00.359
 but instead

00:28:00.359 --> 00:28:01.539
 to open

00:28:01.539 --> 00:28:02.799
 your hearts

00:28:02.799 --> 00:28:04.359
 not just

00:28:04.359 --> 00:28:04.699
 to have

00:28:04.699 --> 00:28:05.219
 an outward

00:28:05.219 --> 00:28:05.799
 sign

00:28:05.799 --> 00:28:06.259
 that people

00:28:06.259 --> 00:28:06.960
 might say

00:28:06.960 --> 00:28:08.079
 you belong

00:28:08.079 --> 00:28:08.839
 to God

00:28:08.839 --> 00:28:10.400
 but so

00:28:10.400 --> 00:28:10.700
 that that

00:28:10.700 --> 00:28:11.119
 is seen

00:28:11.119 --> 00:28:11.440
 from the

00:28:11.440 --> 00:28:12.200
 very core

00:28:12.200 --> 00:28:12.519
 of your

00:28:12.519 --> 00:28:12.759
 being

00:28:12.759 --> 00:28:13.099
 which is

00:28:13.099 --> 00:28:13.440
 what the

00:28:13.440 --> 00:28:13.779
 heart

00:28:13.779 --> 00:28:14.359
 is

00:28:14.359 --> 00:28:15.400
 that the

00:28:15.400 --> 00:28:15.879
 transformation

00:28:15.879 --> 00:28:16.700
 comes

00:28:16.700 --> 00:28:17.379
 from the

00:28:17.379 --> 00:28:18.000
 inside

00:28:18.000 --> 00:28:19.000
 out

00:28:19.000 --> 00:28:21.859
 so it was

00:28:21.859 --> 00:28:22.220
 to be a

00:28:22.220 --> 00:28:22.859
 complete

00:28:22.859 --> 00:28:24.039
 transformation

00:28:24.039 --> 00:28:25.539
 and this

00:28:25.539 --> 00:28:26.039
 transformation

00:28:26.039 --> 00:28:26.700
 is what

00:28:26.700 --> 00:28:27.839
 would lead

00:28:27.839 --> 00:28:28.379
 them then

00:28:28.379 --> 00:28:29.539
 to walk

00:28:29.539 --> 00:28:30.140
 in the ways

00:28:30.140 --> 00:28:30.559
 of God

00:28:30.559 --> 00:28:31.079
 to fear

00:28:31.079 --> 00:28:31.500
 the Lord

00:28:31.500 --> 00:28:32.039
 to walk

00:28:32.039 --> 00:28:32.559
 in his ways

00:28:32.559 --> 00:28:33.059
 to love

00:28:33.059 --> 00:28:33.180
 him

00:28:33.180 --> 00:28:33.839
 to serve

00:28:33.839 --> 00:28:34.079
 him

00:28:34.079 --> 00:28:35.119
 and to keep

00:28:35.119 --> 00:28:35.879
 his commands

00:28:35.880 --> 00:28:37.800
 because

00:28:37.800 --> 00:28:38.640
 an outward

00:28:38.640 --> 00:28:39.380
 sign only

00:28:39.380 --> 00:28:40.000
 doesn't do

00:28:40.000 --> 00:28:40.360
 that

00:28:40.360 --> 00:28:41.880
 and we

00:28:41.880 --> 00:28:42.280
 see that

00:28:42.280 --> 00:28:42.820
 ourselves

00:28:42.820 --> 00:28:43.140
 today

00:28:43.140 --> 00:28:43.520
 when we

00:28:43.520 --> 00:28:44.060
 think of

00:28:44.060 --> 00:28:45.420
 our own

00:28:45.420 --> 00:28:46.200
 signs

00:28:46.200 --> 00:28:46.800
 of

00:28:46.800 --> 00:28:47.820
 what it

00:28:47.820 --> 00:28:48.220
 means to

00:28:48.220 --> 00:28:48.500
 be a

00:28:48.500 --> 00:28:48.880
 believer

00:28:48.880 --> 00:28:49.200
 in the

00:28:49.200 --> 00:28:49.380
 New

00:28:49.380 --> 00:28:49.860
 Testament

00:28:49.860 --> 00:28:50.660
 baptism

00:28:50.660 --> 00:28:51.780
 and the

00:28:51.780 --> 00:28:52.340
 Lord's

00:28:52.340 --> 00:28:52.640
 supper

00:28:52.640 --> 00:28:53.580
 these are

00:28:53.580 --> 00:28:54.060
 things that

00:28:54.060 --> 00:28:54.580
 we can be

00:28:54.580 --> 00:28:55.640
 partakers

00:28:55.640 --> 00:28:56.060
 of

00:28:56.060 --> 00:28:56.500
 we can be

00:28:56.500 --> 00:28:56.860
 baptized

00:28:56.860 --> 00:28:57.520
 in the

00:28:57.520 --> 00:28:57.980
 church

00:28:57.980 --> 00:28:59.120
 we can even

00:28:59.120 --> 00:28:59.480
 come and

00:28:59.480 --> 00:28:59.920
 sit at the

00:28:59.920 --> 00:29:00.340
 Lord's

00:29:00.340 --> 00:29:00.940
 table

00:29:00.940 --> 00:29:02.240
 it can be

00:29:02.240 --> 00:29:02.760
 seen by

00:29:02.760 --> 00:29:03.080
 others

00:29:03.079 --> 00:29:03.480
 but it's

00:29:03.480 --> 00:29:04.259
 no guarantee

00:29:04.259 --> 00:29:05.559
 that we

00:29:05.559 --> 00:29:06.460
 are transformed

00:29:06.460 --> 00:29:08.000
 and especially

00:29:08.000 --> 00:29:08.879
 transformed

00:29:08.879 --> 00:29:10.199
 inwardly

00:29:10.199 --> 00:29:11.939
 because if it's

00:29:11.939 --> 00:29:12.679
 just an outward

00:29:12.679 --> 00:29:13.799
 sign it almost

00:29:13.799 --> 00:29:14.419
 doesn't mean

00:29:14.419 --> 00:29:14.919
 anything

00:29:14.919 --> 00:29:16.879
 and so God

00:29:16.879 --> 00:29:17.559
 is here

00:29:17.559 --> 00:29:18.199
 saying this

00:29:18.199 --> 00:29:18.799
 transformation

00:29:18.799 --> 00:29:19.799
 must come

00:29:19.799 --> 00:29:21.079
 from within

00:29:21.079 --> 00:29:22.659
 and you must

00:29:22.659 --> 00:29:23.619
 allow God

00:29:23.619 --> 00:29:24.779
 to be the one

00:29:24.779 --> 00:29:25.460
 who changes

00:29:25.460 --> 00:29:26.460
 you from

00:29:26.460 --> 00:29:27.159
 within because

00:29:27.159 --> 00:29:28.000
 you cannot

00:29:28.000 --> 00:29:29.500
 we cannot

00:29:29.500 --> 00:29:30.460
 change

00:29:30.460 --> 00:29:31.120
 ourselves

00:29:31.120 --> 00:29:32.779
 and so

00:29:32.779 --> 00:29:33.319
 what God

00:29:33.319 --> 00:29:33.940
 is saying

00:29:33.940 --> 00:29:34.579
 here is

00:29:34.579 --> 00:29:35.579
 in order

00:29:35.579 --> 00:29:36.980
 to live

00:29:36.980 --> 00:29:37.680
 right with

00:29:37.680 --> 00:29:37.940
 me

00:29:37.940 --> 00:29:39.259
 in order

00:29:39.259 --> 00:29:40.140
 to serve

00:29:40.140 --> 00:29:40.900
 me right

00:29:40.900 --> 00:29:41.740
 in order

00:29:41.740 --> 00:29:42.240
 to love

00:29:42.240 --> 00:29:42.380
 me

00:29:42.380 --> 00:29:42.640
 in order

00:29:42.640 --> 00:29:43.039
 to keep

00:29:43.039 --> 00:29:44.000
 my commands

00:29:44.000 --> 00:29:45.559
 circumcise

00:29:45.559 --> 00:29:46.420
 the foreskin

00:29:46.420 --> 00:29:47.620
 of your heart

00:29:47.620 --> 00:29:48.519
 be no longer

00:29:48.519 --> 00:29:49.779
 stubborn

00:29:49.779 --> 00:29:51.940
 don't feel

00:29:51.940 --> 00:29:52.319
 you know

00:29:52.319 --> 00:29:53.500
 best yourself

00:29:53.500 --> 00:29:55.000
 don't feel

00:29:55.000 --> 00:29:55.720
 you can find

00:29:55.720 --> 00:29:56.480
 your own way

00:29:56.480 --> 00:29:57.519
 in this

00:29:57.519 --> 00:29:58.860
 you need

00:29:58.860 --> 00:29:59.340
 God

00:29:59.339 --> 00:30:01.259
 we need

00:30:01.259 --> 00:30:01.639
 God

00:30:01.639 --> 00:30:02.459
 every one

00:30:02.459 --> 00:30:02.959
 of us

00:30:02.959 --> 00:30:04.139
 we are

00:30:04.139 --> 00:30:04.599
 stubborn

00:30:04.599 --> 00:30:05.819
 in so many

00:30:05.819 --> 00:30:06.740
 different ways

00:30:06.740 --> 00:30:07.459
 we show it

00:30:07.459 --> 00:30:08.519
 so often

00:30:08.519 --> 00:30:10.579
 but if we

00:30:10.579 --> 00:30:11.199
 want to know

00:30:11.199 --> 00:30:11.639
 the love

00:30:11.639 --> 00:30:12.279
 of God

00:30:12.279 --> 00:30:13.500
 if we want

00:30:13.500 --> 00:30:13.899
 to love

00:30:13.899 --> 00:30:14.279
 God

00:30:14.279 --> 00:30:14.720
 as we

00:30:14.720 --> 00:30:15.220
 should

00:30:15.220 --> 00:30:16.639
 then our

00:30:16.639 --> 00:30:17.079
 hearts

00:30:17.079 --> 00:30:17.500
 need to

00:30:17.500 --> 00:30:17.959
 change

00:30:17.959 --> 00:30:18.579
 our hearts

00:30:18.579 --> 00:30:19.559
 need to

00:30:19.559 --> 00:30:20.159
 be open

00:30:20.159 --> 00:30:21.199
 to him

00:30:21.199 --> 00:30:23.019
 a stubborn

00:30:23.019 --> 00:30:23.559
 heart

00:30:23.559 --> 00:30:24.159
 here and as

00:30:24.159 --> 00:30:24.699
 we see it

00:30:24.699 --> 00:30:25.439
 throughout

00:30:25.439 --> 00:30:26.079
 scripture

00:30:26.079 --> 00:30:26.500
 is often

00:30:26.500 --> 00:30:27.459
 described as

00:30:27.459 --> 00:30:28.319
 the horse

00:30:28.319 --> 00:30:28.879
 with a bit

00:30:28.880 --> 00:30:29.240
 in its

00:30:29.240 --> 00:30:29.680
 mouth

00:30:29.680 --> 00:30:31.500
 and when

00:30:31.500 --> 00:30:31.960
 the horse

00:30:31.960 --> 00:30:32.600
 refuses

00:30:32.600 --> 00:30:33.560
 to turn

00:30:33.560 --> 00:30:35.400
 but you

00:30:35.400 --> 00:30:35.720
 have to

00:30:35.720 --> 00:30:36.440
 let God

00:30:36.440 --> 00:30:37.280
 take the

00:30:37.280 --> 00:30:37.800
 reins

00:30:37.800 --> 00:30:39.500
 let God

00:30:39.500 --> 00:30:39.980
 take

00:30:39.980 --> 00:30:40.760
 command

00:30:40.760 --> 00:30:42.120
 and only

00:30:42.120 --> 00:30:42.500
 then

00:30:42.500 --> 00:30:43.200
 are we

00:30:43.200 --> 00:30:43.620
 guided

00:30:43.620 --> 00:30:44.520
 in the

00:30:44.520 --> 00:30:44.800
 right

00:30:44.800 --> 00:30:45.380
 direction

00:30:45.380 --> 00:30:47.000
 and so

00:30:47.000 --> 00:30:48.000
 we see

00:30:48.000 --> 00:30:48.440
 here

00:30:48.440 --> 00:30:49.600
 the wonder

00:30:49.600 --> 00:30:50.320
 of who

00:30:50.320 --> 00:30:50.780
 God is

00:30:50.780 --> 00:30:51.060
 we see

00:30:51.060 --> 00:30:51.860
 the requirements

00:30:51.860 --> 00:30:52.740
 that he

00:30:52.740 --> 00:30:53.160
 gives

00:30:53.160 --> 00:30:53.660
 in light

00:30:53.660 --> 00:30:54.420
 of his

00:30:54.420 --> 00:30:54.900
 mercy

00:30:54.900 --> 00:30:55.900
 unwilling

00:30:55.900 --> 00:30:57.259
 to destroy

00:30:57.259 --> 00:30:57.560
 you

00:30:57.560 --> 00:30:57.800
 even

00:30:57.800 --> 00:30:57.920
 though

00:30:57.920 --> 00:30:58.100
 he

00:30:58.100 --> 00:30:58.460
 could

00:30:58.460 --> 00:30:59.540
 but then

00:30:59.540 --> 00:30:59.759
 that

00:30:59.759 --> 00:31:00.259
 demands

00:31:00.259 --> 00:31:00.460
 a

00:31:00.460 --> 00:31:01.080
 requirement

00:31:01.080 --> 00:31:02.140
 to love

00:31:02.140 --> 00:31:02.580
 the Lord

00:31:02.580 --> 00:31:03.100
 to walk

00:31:03.100 --> 00:31:03.360
 in his

00:31:03.360 --> 00:31:03.720
 ways

00:31:03.720 --> 00:31:05.019
 to serve

00:31:05.019 --> 00:31:05.320
 him

00:31:05.320 --> 00:31:06.180
 to obey

00:31:06.180 --> 00:31:06.960
 his word

00:31:06.960 --> 00:31:08.960
 it

00:31:08.960 --> 00:31:10.539
 brings us

00:31:10.539 --> 00:31:10.759
 to a

00:31:10.759 --> 00:31:11.220
 reminder

00:31:11.220 --> 00:31:11.579
 that he

00:31:11.579 --> 00:31:11.880
 is a

00:31:11.880 --> 00:31:12.240
 great

00:31:12.240 --> 00:31:12.620
 God

00:31:12.620 --> 00:31:12.880
 and yet

00:31:12.880 --> 00:31:13.000
 he

00:31:13.000 --> 00:31:13.299
 still

00:31:13.299 --> 00:31:13.700
 loves

00:31:13.700 --> 00:31:14.120
 us

00:31:14.120 --> 00:31:15.900
 but then

00:31:15.900 --> 00:31:16.340
 it asks

00:31:16.340 --> 00:31:16.700
 well what

00:31:16.700 --> 00:31:17.039
 is to be

00:31:17.039 --> 00:31:17.220
 our

00:31:17.220 --> 00:31:18.039
 response

00:31:18.039 --> 00:31:19.480
 our

00:31:19.480 --> 00:31:20.039
 response

00:31:20.039 --> 00:31:20.400
 is

00:31:20.400 --> 00:31:21.400
 not to

00:31:21.400 --> 00:31:21.539
 be

00:31:21.539 --> 00:31:21.960
 stubborn

00:31:21.960 --> 00:31:22.180
 of

00:31:22.180 --> 00:31:22.799
 ourselves

00:31:22.799 --> 00:31:24.559
 but to

00:31:24.559 --> 00:31:25.039
 open our

00:31:25.039 --> 00:31:25.440
 hearts

00:31:25.440 --> 00:31:26.039
 to him

00:31:26.039 --> 00:31:27.279
 that he

00:31:27.279 --> 00:31:27.759
 might come

00:31:27.759 --> 00:31:28.240
 in and

00:31:28.240 --> 00:31:28.620
 dwell

00:31:28.620 --> 00:31:29.720
 in our

00:31:29.720 --> 00:31:30.240
 hearts

00:31:30.240 --> 00:31:31.380
 and as

00:31:31.380 --> 00:31:31.799
 he does

00:31:31.799 --> 00:31:32.579
 he directs

00:31:32.579 --> 00:31:32.839
 us

00:31:32.839 --> 00:31:33.779
 in every

00:31:33.779 --> 00:31:34.359
 step

00:31:34.359 --> 00:31:34.740
 that we

00:31:34.740 --> 00:31:35.240
 take

00:31:35.240 --> 00:31:36.759
 the people

00:31:36.759 --> 00:31:37.240
 of God

00:31:37.240 --> 00:31:37.720
 here in

00:31:37.720 --> 00:31:38.240
 Deuteronomy

00:31:38.240 --> 00:31:39.140
 were going

00:31:39.140 --> 00:31:39.620
 into the

00:31:39.620 --> 00:31:40.180
 promised

00:31:40.180 --> 00:31:40.859
 land

00:31:40.859 --> 00:31:42.299
 to know

00:31:42.299 --> 00:31:42.700
 God's

00:31:42.700 --> 00:31:43.180
 blessing

00:31:43.180 --> 00:31:44.200
 they had

00:31:44.200 --> 00:31:44.460
 to be

00:31:44.460 --> 00:31:44.839
 obedient

00:31:44.839 --> 00:31:45.720
 to him

00:31:45.720 --> 00:31:47.299
 the same

00:31:47.299 --> 00:31:47.900
 is true

00:31:47.900 --> 00:31:48.819
 for ourselves

00:31:48.819 --> 00:31:49.160
 today

00:31:49.160 --> 00:31:49.680
 we may not

00:31:49.680 --> 00:31:50.079
 go into

00:31:50.079 --> 00:31:50.599
 the promised

00:31:50.599 --> 00:31:51.039
 land

00:31:51.039 --> 00:31:51.920
 as it's

00:31:51.920 --> 00:31:52.480
 seen here

00:31:52.480 --> 00:31:52.960
 but to go

00:31:52.960 --> 00:31:53.940
 into eternity

00:31:53.940 --> 00:31:55.160
 to know

00:31:55.160 --> 00:31:55.700
 his blessings

00:31:55.700 --> 00:31:56.400
 in life

00:31:56.400 --> 00:31:57.700
 we are to

00:31:57.700 --> 00:31:58.299
 be obedient

00:31:58.299 --> 00:31:59.559
 to him

00:31:59.559 --> 00:32:01.079
 so what

00:32:01.079 --> 00:32:01.299
 does the

00:32:01.299 --> 00:32:02.000
 Lord require

00:32:02.000 --> 00:32:02.539
 of you

00:32:02.539 --> 00:32:04.059
 does he

00:32:04.059 --> 00:32:04.940
 require you

00:32:04.940 --> 00:32:06.079
 to fear

00:32:06.079 --> 00:32:06.899
 him more

00:32:06.899 --> 00:32:07.940
 to walk

00:32:07.940 --> 00:32:08.659
 more closely

00:32:08.659 --> 00:32:09.019
 with him

00:32:09.019 --> 00:32:09.480
 to love

00:32:09.480 --> 00:32:09.700
 him

00:32:09.700 --> 00:32:10.980
 to serve

00:32:10.980 --> 00:32:11.159
 him

00:32:11.159 --> 00:32:11.659
 to obey

00:32:11.659 --> 00:32:12.379
 his word

00:32:12.379 --> 00:32:13.980
 to realise

00:32:13.980 --> 00:32:15.059
 the awesome

00:32:15.059 --> 00:32:15.759
 power he

00:32:15.759 --> 00:32:16.639
 has to see

00:32:16.639 --> 00:32:17.700
 the love

00:32:17.700 --> 00:32:18.279
 that he has

00:32:18.279 --> 00:32:18.700
 shown

00:32:18.700 --> 00:32:20.159
 and to open

00:32:20.159 --> 00:32:20.759
 your heart

00:32:20.759 --> 00:32:22.339
 to receive

00:32:22.339 --> 00:32:23.399
 by his

00:32:23.399 --> 00:32:23.879
 grace

00:32:23.879 --> 00:32:24.779
 that love

00:32:24.779 --> 00:32:26.019
 and love

00:32:26.019 --> 00:32:26.359
 him

00:32:26.359 --> 00:32:27.259
 with all

00:32:27.259 --> 00:32:27.839
 your heart

00:32:27.839 --> 00:32:28.779
 let us

00:32:28.779 --> 00:32:29.019
 pray

00:32:29.559 --> 00:32:32.539
 Lord our

00:32:32.539 --> 00:32:33.039
 gracious

00:32:33.039 --> 00:32:33.500
 God

00:32:33.500 --> 00:32:34.039
 we thank

00:32:34.039 --> 00:32:34.359
 you for

00:32:34.359 --> 00:32:35.099
 the great

00:32:35.099 --> 00:32:36.159
 concern

00:32:36.159 --> 00:32:36.679
 you have

00:32:36.679 --> 00:32:37.179
 for us

00:32:37.179 --> 00:32:37.619
 the mercy

00:32:37.619 --> 00:32:38.000
 that you

00:32:38.000 --> 00:32:38.579
 show to

00:32:38.579 --> 00:32:38.940
 us

00:32:38.940 --> 00:32:40.079
 we are

00:32:40.079 --> 00:32:40.579
 a people

00:32:40.579 --> 00:32:41.000
 who just

00:32:41.000 --> 00:32:41.379
 like the

00:32:41.379 --> 00:32:41.879
 people we've

00:32:41.879 --> 00:32:42.240
 been reading

00:32:42.240 --> 00:32:42.720
 off could

00:32:42.720 --> 00:32:43.220
 so easily

00:32:43.220 --> 00:32:43.539
 have been

00:32:43.539 --> 00:32:44.159
 destroyed

00:32:44.159 --> 00:32:44.819
 by you

00:32:44.819 --> 00:32:46.039
 but we
