1. Hear and follow God's word (1-8)

God gave his people commands, not suggestions. These commands were to give them life (1) and wisdom and understanding (6). They must not add to or subtract from them according to their own feelings or ideas. They must hold fast to the LORD their God (4) and not follow idols (3). People who pray to God and follow God's word show the world that God is great (7-8).

2. Be careful not to forget (9-14)

Moses told them to be careful not to forget all God's mighty deeds. God gave the Ten Commandments to them in an awesome display of power (11). They heard God's word but saw no form. They must remember all these things and teach their children. God's people must remember all that God has done for them.


Application: Thank you Lord, for all you've done for us and your great grace, love and mercy. I follow your word and Spirit. In Jesus' name.
One Word: Hold fast to the LORD and live
