Deuteronomy 10:12-22
WHAT DOES THE LORD REQUIRE?
And now, O Israel, what does the LORD your God ask of you…. Deuteronomy 10:12, NIV
The Lord was not secretive about the requirements that Israel should follow if she indeed intend to walk with Him. Over and over, the Lord repeated these requirements to them. Shortly before his death, Moses charged Israel to greater commitment to the Lord. He made clear what the Lord required from them. These included: to fear the Lord, walk in His ways; love God, serve Him with all their hearts and souls (verses 12-13). In addition, they were to circumcise their hearts, love the aliens, hold fast to Him and take their oaths in God’s name.
The Lord has every right to make such demand from Israel. He is the Lord their God, the God of gods, the Lord of lords, defender of the fatherless and widows, lover of the aliens and miracle worker in Israel. A lot is required of every child of God even today. Keeping the Lord’s requirements would open doors to unimaginable blessings. Failure to adhere to these requirements also has serious consequences. The children of God everywhere must therefore trust God for grace to live to glorify Him on a daily basis.
