Rewards of Obedience

  border
Deuteronomy 11:1   "You shall therefore love the LORD your God, and always keep His charge, His statutes, His ordinances, and His commandments.
   
Deuteronomy 11:2   Know this day that I am not speaking with your sons who have not known and who have not seen the discipline of the LORD your God--His greatness, His mighty hand and His outstretched arm,
   
Deuteronomy 11:3   and His signs and His works which He did in the midst of Egypt to Pharaoh the king of Egypt and to all his land;
   
Deuteronomy 11:4   and what He did to Egypt's army, to its horses and its chariots, when He made the water of the Red Sea to engulf them while they were pursuing you, and the LORD completely destroyed them;
   
Deuteronomy 11:5   and what He did to you in the wilderness until you came to this place;
   
Deuteronomy 11:6   and what He did to Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, the son of Reuben, when the earth opened its mouth and swallowed them, their households, their tents, and every living thing that followed them, among all Israel--
   
Deuteronomy 11:7   but your own eyes have seen all the great work of the LORD which He did.
   
Deuteronomy 11:8   "You shall therefore keep every commandment which I am commanding you today, so that you may be strong and go in and possess the land into which you are about to cross to possess it;
   
Deuteronomy 11:9   so that you may prolong your days on the land which the LORD swore to your fathers to give to them and to their descendants, a land flowing with milk and honey.
   
Deuteronomy 11:10   For the land, into which you are entering to possess it, is not like the land of Egypt from which you came, where you used to sow your seed and water it with your foot like a vegetable garden.
   
Deuteronomy 11:11   But the land into which you are about to cross to possess it, a land of hills and valleys, drinks water from the rain of heaven,
   
Deuteronomy 11:12   a land for which the LORD your God cares; the eyes of the LORD your God are always on it, from the beginning even to the end of the year.
   
Deuteronomy 11:13   "It shall come about, if you listen obediently to my commandments which I am commanding you today, to love the LORD your God and to serve Him with all your heart and all your soul,
   
Deuteronomy 11:14   that He will give the rain for your land in its season, the early and late rain, that you may gather in your grain and your new wine and your oil.
   
Deuteronomy 11:15   He will give grass in your fields for your cattle, and you will eat and be satisfied.
   
Deuteronomy 11:16   Beware that your hearts are not deceived, and that you do not turn away and serve other gods and worship them.
   
Deuteronomy 11:17   Or the anger of the LORD will be kindled against you, and He will shut up the heavens so that there will be no rain and the ground will not yield its fruit; and you will perish quickly from the good land which the LORD is giving you.
   
Deuteronomy 11:18   "You shall therefore impress these words of mine on your heart and on your soul; and you shall bind them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be as frontals on your forehead.
   
Deuteronomy 11:19   You shall teach them to your sons, talking of them when you sit in your house and when you walk along the road and when you lie down and when you rise up.
   
Deuteronomy 11:20   You shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates,
   
Deuteronomy 11:21   so that your days and the days of your sons may be multiplied on the land which the LORD swore to your fathers to give them, as long as the heavens remain above the earth.
   
Deuteronomy 11:22   For if you are careful to keep all this commandment which I am commanding you to do, to love the LORD your God, to walk in all His ways and hold fast to Him,
   
Deuteronomy 11:23   then the LORD will drive out all these nations from before you, and you will dispossess nations greater and mightier than you.
   
Deuteronomy 11:24   Every place on which the sole of your foot treads shall be yours; your border will be from the wilderness to Lebanon, and from the river, the river Euphrates, as far as the western sea.
   
Deuteronomy 11:25   No man will be able to stand before you; the LORD your God will lay the dread of you and the fear of you on all the land on which you set foot, as He has spoken to you.
   
Deuteronomy 11:26   "See, I am setting before you today a blessing and a curse:
   
Deuteronomy 11:27   the blessing, if you listen to the commandments of the LORD your God, which I am commanding you today;
   
Deuteronomy 11:28   and the curse, if you do not listen to the commandments of the LORD your God, but turn aside from the way which I am commanding you today, by following other gods which you have not known.
   
Deuteronomy 11:29   "It shall come about, when the LORD your God brings you into the land where you are entering to possess it, that you shall place the blessing on Mount Gerizim and the curse on Mount Ebal.
   
Deuteronomy 11:30   Are they not across the Jordan, west of the way toward the sunset, in the land of the Canaanites who live in the Arabah, opposite Gilgal, beside the oaks of Moreh?
   
Deuteronomy 11:31   For you are about to cross the Jordan to go in to possess the land which the LORD your God is giving you, and you shall possess it and live in it,
   
Deuteronomy 11:32   and you shall be careful to do all the statutes and the judgments which I am setting before you today.
