Deuteronomy 29:1 - 30:20
Moses continued to prepare the Israelites for their journey to the promised land. Moses told then that if they obeyed the covenant then they will prosper; disobey it and they will loose everything.
Starting at verse 30:15 and continuing out the rest of chapter 30, Moses explains to the people that they need to make a choice of life and death. Moses basically tells the people that they choose life by loving the Lord and obeying him. The entire passage should be read, I'd like to quote it all here but it's too long. Instead I am just going to quote the last verse (verse 20):
"You can make this choice by loving the Lord your God, obeying him, and committing yourself firmly to him. This is the key to your life. And if you love and obey the Lord, you will live long in the land the Lord swore to give your ancestors Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob."Love the Lord with all your heart and all your soul, and obey him. These things bring us life, blessings and provision. To me, the choice is easy -- I choose life!
