Sermon
Text: Deuteronomy 8: 1 Be
careful o follow every command I am giving you today, so that you may live and
increase and may enter and possess the land that the Lord promised on an oath
to your forefathers.
Sermon
Title: Thanksgiving: UNFORGETTABLE!
Point 1: Remember when…lead you vs. 2 Remember how the Lord your God led you
all the way in the desert these forty years… In the text Moses told the
Children of Israel God’s leadership is worth remembering. How does someone find
there way for 40 years in the Wilderness unless they are lead.
What
was God up to when He was leading Israel? Look in vs. 2, 3 …to humble you and to test you in order to know what was in
your heart, whether or not you would keep his commands (1) God wanted to
Israel to become humble…you follow better when you are humble (2) God wanted
them to know what was in there hearts…some times you don’t know what’s in your
heart until you are put under pressure (3) God wanted them to learn how to
depend on his word not his hand...
Point 2: Remember
when…fed you vs. 3 He humbled you ,
causing you to hunger and then feeding you you with manna, which neither you
nor your fathers had known, to teach you that man does not live by bread alone
but on every word that comes from the mouth of the Lord.
Psalms 103: 1 – 5 puts it this way Bless the Lord, O my soul; And all that is within
me, bless His holy name!
2 Bless
the Lord, O my soul,
And forget not all His benefits:
3 Who
forgives all your iniquities,
Who heals all your diseases,
4 Who
redeems your life from destruction,
Who crowns you with loving kindness and
tender mercies,
5 Who
satisfies your mouth with good things,
So
that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.[1]
Point 3:
Remember when…became your God vs. 11
Verse 11 Be careful that you do not forget the Lord your God…
This
verse gives us the most important reason Moses wants them to be thankful by
remembering God became their God. God had a choice in the matter.
