land what God has already said.

And you get to the very last verse in this chapter,

Deuteronomy chapter 5, verse 33.

And Moses says, you shall walk in all the way that the Lord your God has commanded you.

And then listen to these four words.

That's what I want us to focus on praying according to today.

So walking all the way,

the Lord your God has commanded you, that you may live. That you may live. And you think about what that meant, even for these people standing on the edge of the promised land, who have just

seen an entire generation
