Remember The Lord Who Makes You His People

Join us this Sunday as Marion preaches from the Old Testament reading: Deuteronomy 8. In it Moses' is giving his charge to the children of those whom God delivered in the Exodus out of slavery in Egypt. After 40 years of wilderness wandering almost all the parents are gone, but their children are on the shore of the Jordan River poised to cross over into the Promised Land. Moses' message to them is: Remember the LORD God our Maker. The LORD God is their Maker in that he has made them his people in the land of adversity. But as they transition to the land of prosperity, Moses warns them and gives them things to do so they do not forget the LORD and cease to be his people. There is much in Moses' charge that speaks also to us as the people of God today.
