Don’t fear horses and iron chariots in our lives. The Lord wants us to burn these which serve to cause us to question Gods Providence for us and threaten our faith. God has given us everything and has fulfilled all his promises to bring us to a promised land flowing with milk and honey!! Only he asks us not to forget his miracles and our covenant with him. He asks us to be very careful to keep the commandments: to love the Lord our God, to walk in all his ways, to obey his commands, to hold fast to him and to serve him with all our heart and soul!! He asks us to build altars: replicas of the Lords original altar as a witness between us and him and a reminder that we are to serve him and him only!!! The Lord promises us he will drive out our enemies before us. That he will give us things we have not toiled for! He asks us to be strong! Bold! Courageous!!! But be careful!!! To live God with everything!!! And with all faithfulness!!!

The book of Devarim (Hebrew), Deuteronomy (Greek) meaning Words (English) consist of three speeches delivered to the Israelites by Moses on the plains of Moab, shortly before they enter the Promised Land. Join the weekly online Bible study.
The first part recounts the forty years of wilderness wanderings which had led to that moment, and ends with an exhortation to observe the teachings, later referred to as the Law of Moses.
The second part reminds the Israelites of the need to follow Yehovah and the laws (or teachings) he has given them, on which their possession of the land depends. And the third sermon offers the comfort that, even should Israel prove unfaithful and so lose the land, with repentance all can be restored.
The final four chapters (31–34) contain the Song of Moses, the Blessing of Moses, and the narratives recounting the passing of the mantle of leadership from Moses to Joshua and, finally, the death of Moses on Mount Nebo.
