Deuteronomy 12:1-13:18

What God said to me – “I AM” God and I alone am worthy of your praise and worship.  I desire your worship but I will not share your devotion.  You must love Me with all of your heart and soul and mind and strength.  Stay close to Me.  Don’t let anything else creep in to steal your affections.  Where do you spend your time – not just physically, but mentally?  Are you setting your mind on Me or daydreaming about ungodly things.  Guard your heart and mind so you don’t stray from Me.  Stay close.  Spend much time with Me in My word so you don’t become ensnared.

Deuteronomy 8:1-11:32

What God said to me – My eyes are continually on you because I care for you.  You are Mine.  I long for you to have your eyes continually on Me . . . always looking to Me for your every need.  “I AM” your provider.  I give you all you need for life and godliness.  I have circumcised your heart and made a covenant with you that can never be broken.  You are Mine.  “I AM” your inheritance.  All that “I AM”, I give to you.  You must walk in the light of that truth.  I have separated you out from the world and adopted you as My own.  Walk in confidence knowing that I will provide all you need to accomplish what I called you to do.

Deuteronomy 4:1-7:26

What God said to me – “I AM” God and God alone.  There is no other like Me.  I chose you before the foundation of the world because I love you.  You are Mine – set apart for My service – set apart for My glory – set apart to demonstrate to the world that “I AM” God.  You must walk with Me.  You must do what is right in My sight for it is through you that the world sees Me . . . sees My faithfulness . . . sees My love.  You must spend much time with Me so that you will begin to look like Me and act like Me.  Talk about Me often.  Talk about My greatness.  Talk about My unfailing love.  Let them have no doubt about Who’s you are.
