Deuteronomy 27:11-26
Moses commanded the people: When you have crossed the Jordan, six tribe shall stand on Mount Gerizim to bless the people. And another six tribes shall stand on mount Ebal to pronounce curses.
There are twelve cursed things, two are pertain to ten commandments, four are pertain to sexual relationship, three are pertain to who withholds justice treats others, two are kill innocent people, last one is who does not uphold the words of this law.

Going to war , do not be afraid of them, because the Lord your God, who brought you up out of Egypt will be with you. When you are about to go into battle, the priest shall come forward and address the army, encourage them
The officers shall say to the army, if anyone who built a new house, planted a vineyard, become pledged to a woman and not married, let him go home. Any man afraid of fainthearted? Let him go home so that his brothers will not become disheartened too.
When you march up to attack a city, make its people an offer of peace. If they accept ad open their gates, all the people in it shall be subject to forced labor and shall work for you. If they refuse to make peace and they engage you in battle, lay siege to that city. Put to the sword all the men in the city. As for the women, the children, livestock, you may take these as plunder. This is how you are to treat all the cities that are at a distance from you.
However, in the cities of the nations the Lord your God is giving you as an inheritance, do not leave alive anything that breathes. Otherwise, they will teach you to follow all the detestable things they do in worshiping their gods, and you will sin against the Lord.
Why?
The Lord teach Israelite the strategy of the war or the rule of the war.
Going to war is fight for the Lord and the wars are good to the people of the Lord. The promise land need the people of the Lord to flight, them they can get it.
We are working with the Lord, the Lord the leader, we follow his instructions will be perfect.

Show no pity to the evil things
Deuteronomy 19:1-21
Set aside three cities centrally located in the land the Lord your God is giving you to possess. Cities of Refuge
The rule concerning the man who kills another and flees there to save his life - one who hills his neighbor unintentionally, without malice aforethought.
If the Lord your God enlarges your territory as he promised ad gives you the whole land, then you are to set aside three more cities.
But if a man hates his neighbor ad lies in wait for him, assaults and kills him, and then flees to one of these cities, the elders of his town shall send for him, bring him back from the city, and him her over to the avenger of the blood to die. Show no pity.
Do not move your neighbor's boundary stone set up by your predecessors in the inheritance.
If a malicious witness take the stand to accuse a man of a crime, the judge must make a thorough investigation, and if the witness proves to e a liar, then do to him as he intended to do to his brother. Show no pity.
Why?
Must purge the evil from among you for the Lord is holy.
City of refuge like a savior Jesus, give innocent people a chance to flee away from the avenger of blood.
How?

Keep away the detestable ways
Deuteronomy 18:9-22
Do not learn to imitate the detestable ways of the nations there. Detestable thing are sacrifice his son or daughter in the fire, who practices divination or sorcery, interprets omens, engages in witchcraft, or casts spells, or be a medium or spiritist or who consults the dead.
Because of these detestable practices the Lord drove out these nations before Israelite.
You must be blameless before the Lord your God.
The Lord said to Moses:"I will raise up for them a prophet like you from among their brothers; I will put my words in his mouth, and he will tell them every thing I command him."
How can we know when a message has not been spoken by the Lord? If what a prophet proclaims in the name of the Lord does not take place or come true, that is a message the Lord has not spoken.
Why?
The Lord said about a future prophet-Jesus.
The true prophet is one like Moses: his words are proved true by events.
The Lord asked Israelite destroyed the nations completely because those people did detestable things.
How?
We might be curiosity to many things but these detestable things are the Lord prohibited so don't do it. Keep away the detestable ways.
Don't afraid a prophet's word if the words doesn't come true, but all the words in the Bible are truth.

Thanks God's giving, be generousty
Deuteronomy 15:1-23
Every seven years you must cancel debts. Every creditor shell cancel he loan the has made to his fellow Israelite.
Be careful not yo harbor the wicked though:"The seventh year, the year for canceling debts, is near," so that you do not show ill will toward your needy brother and give him nothing.
Be generously to your brothers and do so without a grudging heart; then because of this the Lord your God will bless you in all your work and in everything you put your hand to.
If a fellow Hebrew, a man or woman, sells himself to you and serves you six years, in the seventh year you must let him go free. And when you release him, do not send him away empty-handed. Remember that you were slaves in Egypt and the Lord your God redeemed you.
Do not consider it a hardship to set your servant free, because his service to you these six years has been worth twice as much as that of a hired hand.
The firstborn animals have to be set apart for the Lord your God and do not put the firstborn of your oxen to work, and do not shear the firstborn of you sheep.
Why?
The Lord asked us to be generosity to every poor man, our property is because of the blessing of the Lord. When we be generously to other brothers, the Lord will bless us get more.
We were the slavery of sin, now we can do more to the sinner, bring them to Jesus be free. Now we are the servant of the Lord. All of the property is the Lord lend to us temporary in this world. To be a good servant in the house of the Lord.
How?
Be generously to others, for the poor childhood and struggling in past a few years we might thought it was earned by my strength, remember if the Lord did not gave us the chance and blessed us, how can we earned these? How can we are living until now? Praise to the Lord. Thanks his giving.

Deuteronomy 12:15-32
You may slaughter you animal and eat as much of meat as you want.But you must not eat the blood; pour it on the ground like water. Because the blood is the life, and you must not eat the life with the meat.
You my eat meat at your town or territory, but take your consecrated things and whatever you have vowed to give, and go to the pace the Lord will choose. Present your burnt offerings on the alter of the Lord your God, both the meat and the blood.
Do not be ensnared by inquiring about their gods, saying, "How do these nations serve their gods? we will do the same." Because in worshiping their gods, they do all kinds of detestable things the Lord hates.
See that you do all I command you; do not add to it or take away from it.

The Lord knows that people will inquire about other gods for curiosity, so he warns us in advance. It is will be a snare to grab us.
How?
Inquiring the Lord our God done on us and in the history, follow his commands and decrees, doing what is good and right in the eyes of the Lord, I will go well.

We do here today, everyone as he sees fit.
Deuteronomy 12:1-14
The decrees and laws you must be careful to follow in the land your God has given you to posses: destroy completely all the places on the high mountains and on the hills and under every spreading tree where the nations you are dispossessing worship their gods. Break down their altars, smash their sacred stones and burn their Asherah poles in the fire; cut down the idols of their gods and wipe out their names from those places.
The place the Lord your God choose as a dwelling for his Name- there you are to bring everything I command you: your burnt offerings and sacrifices, your tithes and special gifts , and all the choice possessions you has vowed to the Lord. And there rejoice before the Lord your God, you and your family, servants and the Levites from your towns.
You are not to do as we do here today, everyone as he sees fit.
Why?
The place of Worship is chose as a dwelling for his Name. Don't do it as everyone o as he sees fit today.
The righteousness is belong to the Lord, no one is righteousness in the world. Authority of judge is belong to the Lord.
Destroy completely all the places where nations worship their gods, including the idols,building, symbols and the names. All these could be let their heir interested in it and leading them sin.
When the nation is settled God will select one specific place for the sacrifices. Shiloh was the nation's first religious center, under Eli and Samuel.
How?
Dear Lord, please purify my heart and check is there I see it fit inside my mind. If it does please remove it from me and transform my heart more like Jesus.
I won't judge anyone in this world anymore since today. Please give me the strength to do it

Choice between blessing and curse
Deuteronomy 11:18-32
Fix these words of mine on your hearts and minds; tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads... Remind Israelite don't forget it.
Teach them to your children in your living: sit at home and talking along the road, when you lie down and when you get up. It is early morning and late night, no other affairs. sit at home and walk along the road is not other person interrupt.
Moses set before them a blessing and curse- the blessing if you obey the commands of the Lord your God that I am giving you today; the curse if you disobey the commands of the Lord your God and turn from the way that I command you today by following other gods, which you not known.
Why?
People has the character of curiosity to unknown things, so they might turn away to the gods they unknown. So the Lord warned them be careful.
The generation of Moses and Joshua saw and experienced the mighty of the Lord, but three generations later their offspring, descendant might forget it. So the education at home is very important, it is not only teaching bur also doing in their living.
People's curiosity is good for science, innovation... but sometimes might lead people to other gods for they try to know how about others; they don't believe their custom or lessons from home or society.
How?
Education at home is important and good witness of their parents are important also.
Blessing and curse are explained clear, then the Lord let people choose which one you prefer, depends on our choice. Of cause I choose blessing and obey the commands of the Lord.

Fear and love the Lord for He loves us
Deuteronomy 11:1-17
Love the Lord your God and keep his requirements, his decrees, his laws and his commands always.
Remember today that your children were not the ones who saw and experienced the disciplines of the Lord your God: his majesty, his mighty hand, his outstretched arm; the sign he performed and the things he did in the heart of Egypt. But it was your own eyes saw all these great thing the Lord has done.
The land flowing with milk and honey is a land the Lord your God cares for; the eyes of the Lord your God are continually on it from the beginning of the year to its end.
Be careful, or you be enticed to turn away and worship other gods and bow down to them. Then the Lord's anger will burn against you and he will shut the heavens so that it will not rain and the ground will yield no produce and you will soon perish from the land the Lord is giving you.
Why?
Remember today the Lord did on you, but didn't did on their children, so their children might turn away from the Lord. The relationship with the Lord usually is personal relation with the Lord.
To be a parent of the children has the obligation to teach children to know the Lord and tell them what he had done on us.
The Lord is majesty and has mighty hand with outstretched arm. He can do many miracle things. Trust in Him.
Be careful the Lord is a living God, he is looking everyone living on the world. He is righteousness and will judge what we did in the end day.
How?
Fear the Lord, remember his mercy and love. Because the Lord loves us so I like to response with respective to Him and obey his commands. Fear is needed to us.

The Lord is my praise; he is my God.
Deuteronomy 10:1-22
The Lord said to Moses prepared two stone tablets like the first ones and came up to the mountain. Also asked Moses make a wooden chest. The Lord wrote on the tables the words that were on the first tablet, which Moses broke
What does the Lord your God ask of you but to fear the Lord your God, to walk in all his ways, to love him, to serve the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul, and to observe the Lord's commands and decrees that I am giving you today for your own good?
He is your praise; he is your God, who performed for you those great and awesome wonders you saw with your own eyes. Your forefathers who went down into Egypt were 70 in all and now the Lord your God has made you as numerous as the stars in the sky.
Why?
God wrote his words on the stone tablets which can preserve longer time, but now after Jesus came the Lord wrote his words on our heart.
What a christian have to do is 1)fear the Lord your God- respect the Lord. 2)Love the Lord with all I can- the holy life. 3) Observe the Lord's commands and decrees- walk the way of the Lord guided.
Walk in God's way for my own good.
People saw the world many things but does not everyone can understand that was the Lord created and his almighty hands did for us.
How?
What is my praise, the Lord. Who is my God? the Lord. He is the faithful god to everyone trust in him.

Pray for my people on this land
Deuteronomy 9:1-29
The Lord your God is the one who goes across ahead of you like a devouring fire.
The Lord has brought me here to take possession of this land no because of my righteousness, but on account of the wickedness of these nations.
Moses stayed on the mountain forty days and forty nights; he ate no bread and drank no water to listen and get the tablets of stone, the tablets of the covenant that the Lord had made with you.
Moses fell prostrate before the Lord for forty days and forty nights twice; he ate no bread and drank no water, because of all the sin you had committed. Moses feared the anger and wrath of the Lord, for he was angry enough with you to destroy you.
Israelite made the Lord angry at Teberah, at Massah and at Kibroth Hattaavah, and when the the Lord sent you our from Kadesh Barnea. So many times they have been rebellious against the Lord ever since I have known you.
Why?
Moses once again reminded the people of Israel that what their sin have done and the mercy of the Load came upon them. Do not proud they enter and possess the land across Jordan river is for their righteousness but for the account of Anakites' wickedness. They were strong and tall.
The Lord like devouring fires means his angry and his righteousness. th
Moses payed much efforts before the Lord asked for the mercy of the Lord forgave the Israelites. 40 days and 40 nights is the long period for a man.
How?
All of us are sinned men. Our salvation is the mercy of the Lord came upon me. Remember all of the mercy the Lord have done on me.
Learn from Moses prayed for their people, this is the serving altitude as a servant of the Lord.

Be careful that you do not forget the Lord your God, failing to observe his commands when you herds and flocks grow large and your silver and gold increase and all you have is multiple, then your heart will become proud ad you will forget the Lord.
40 years in the desert, remember how the Lord led you the way, to humble you and to test you in order to know what was in your heart, whether or not you would keep his commands.
He feeding you with manna, to teach you that man does not live o bread alone but on every word that comes from the mouth of the Lord. The Lord was to humble you and to test you so that in the end it might go well with you.
Remember the Lord your God, for it is he who gives you the ability to produce wealth, and so confirms his covenant, which he swore to your forefather, so you may produce this wealth.
