Messiah in Life
Devarim: Torah 44
The Book of Deuteronomy opens with the first discourse of Moses. In these opening chapters, Moses reminds the children of Israel where they have come from, their failures, victories, and then encourages them for the days ahead. How does this opening discourse speak to us today? There may be countless starts in the heavens, but they are all set and named by the Lord, Who also redeemed, set and named you. From Deuteronomy and Genesis, to the Psalms, to Isaiah and the Gospels, we follow the pattern of encouragement and direction from the Lord for us today.
