Heaston Sermon 9.24.2023, Deuteronomy 32:1-27

Prosperity out of context leads us away from the God of our covenant.

Living in faithful obedience to YHWH requires strength and courage, and intentionality.

A changed heart that leads to love and obedience to YHWH is life.

In Deuteronomy 29 we see that keeping covenant with YHWH is how we experience life.

The people of God obey the voice of God and experience the blessings of God.

We worship because it is the response to God's revelation. - worship is in response to God's mercy - worship expresses joy at God's redemption - worship manages God's resources for God's glory - worship seeks the fullness of God

The people of YHWH live in such a way to bring honor to YHWH.

The people of God have a responsibility for the well-being of the vulnerable among them.

The people of God must pursue holiness in all things; -Holiness in the assembly -Holiness in battle

We take a look at 1 Corinthians 20-30:2:2 and how we are to keep the Gospel simple.

The people of God must live set apart lives, because they are set apart people.

The shedding of innocent blood brings judgement; the shedding of Messiahs blood brings justification.

Luke 18:15:30 The way of the child The way of the wealthy The way of the disciple

In Deuteronomy 20, we see how your God goes before you to fight your battles and give you the victory.

The righteousness of the people of God is upheld by maintaining righteous witnesses. We see that God is concerned about the integrity and motive of a witness.

As we begin Deuteronomy 19, we see when you live in God's provision, you must live according to God's justice. *If you would like a copy of the sermon slides, as the stage TV was not operating, you can download them here https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/7ol8dvafy61bn5q713kp0/Deuteronomy-19.1-14-6.4.2023.pptx?dl=0&rlkey=fv1wzvk8359wvnr4nt56qvgoq *

Are you living in the order of the King Saul or in the order of King David? 1 Samuel 28:3-8 / 1 Samuel 30:1-8

What does God forbid His people to be involved in, and how does He say He will reveal Himself to them? In Deuteronomy 18:9-22, we see the people of God must not look to the occult, but rather to the on who YHWH raised up.
