Song # 1065.1- Do Not Forget The Lord

We read in the Book of Deuteronomy in chapter 8 that we should not forget the Lord our God, nor forget what He has done for us. Chapter 8 details what Moses told the Israelites, and what he said is still true for us today.
Be careful to follow every command I am giving you today, so that you may live and increase and enter and possess the land that the Lord promised on oath to your forefathers (Deuteronomy 8:1). Remember how the Lord your God led you all the way in the desert these forty years, to humble you and to test you, in order to know what was in your heart, and whether or not you would keep His commands (Deuteronomy 8:2). He humbled you, causing you hunger and then feeding you with manna (bread from heaven – see song # 1060.1- Manna And Quail), which neither you nor your fathers had known, to teach you that man does not live on bread alone but on every word that comes from the mouth of the Lord (Deuteronomy 8:3). Your clothes did not wear out and your feet did not swell during these forty years in the desert (Deuteronomy 8:4). Observe the commands of the Lord your God, walking In His ways and revering him (Deuteronomy 8:6). For the Lord your God is bringing you into a good land - a land with streams and pools of water, with springs flowing in the valleys and hills (Deuteronomy 8:7). When you have eaten and are satisfied, praise the Lord your God for the good land He has given you (Deuteronomy 8:10). Be careful that you do not forget the Lord your God, failing to observe His commands, His laws and decrees that I am giving you this day (Deuteronomy 8:11). Otherwise, when you eat and are satisfied, when you build fine houses and settle down (Deuteronomy 8:12), and when your herds and flocks grow large and your silver and gold increase and all you have is multiplied (Deuteronomy 8:13), then your heart will become proud and you will forget the Lord your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery (Deuteronomy 8:14). You may say to yourself “My power and the strength of my hands have produced this wealth for me†(Deuteronomy 8:17). But 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 forefathers, as it is today (Deuteronomy 8:18). If you ever forget the Lord your God and follow other gods and worship and bow down to them, I testify against you today that you will surely be destroyed (Deuteronomy 8:19). Like the nations the Lord destroyed before you, so you will be destroyed for not obeying the Lord your God (Deuteronomy 8:20).
