Episode 358: Deuteronomy 29-30

Today's Prayer Meditation is on Deuteronomy 29 and 30.

I have seen with my own eyes your great strength, the miraculous signs, and the amazing wonders. You have given me a mind that understands, eyes that see, and ears that hear. You have provided for me in even the toughest times, so I would know that you are my God and the source of my supply.

I obey your word, Father, and you prosper me in everything I do. Your covenant was not made just for the Children of Israel, but for future generations. It was made for me. 

I do not think I am safe when I follow the desires of my own stubborn heart. I know that there are consequences for my actions. And choosing to ignore your instructions is choosing to place myself under the curses.

I take your instructions to heart. I follow your Word with all my heart and all my soul. You have restored what the enemy took. You had mercy on me and brought me back into relationship with you. Even if I were banished to the ends of the earth, you would bring me back again. You have made me even more prosperous than my ancestors.

Father, you changed my heart and you will change the hearts of my descendants so we love you with all of our hearts and souls and so we may live. 

You make me successful in everything you do. You increase my descendants, and you cause my business to produce abundant harvests. You delight in being good to me. I obey your voice and keep your Word, I have turned to you with all my heart and soul, and you delight in me. 

Your requirements are not too difficult for me, and they are not beyond my reach. It is not kept in heaven, so distant that I must ask, ‘Who will go up to heaven and bring it down so I can hear it and obey?’ It is not kept beyond the sea, so far away that I must ask, ‘Who will cross the sea to bring it to me so I can hear it and obey?’ No, it is very close at hand; your Word is on my lips and in my heart so that I can do it.

You have given me a choice between life and death, between prosperity and disaster. You only ask that I love you, that I keep your Word and walk in your ways. And you bless me, Father.

You gave me the choice between life and death, between blessings and curses. I choose life, Father, so that I and my descendants might live. I love you, I obey you, and I commit myself firmly to you. This is the key to living a long, healthy and prosperous life.

So be it.

Until next time, be blessed and be a blessing.
