Oh let the Son of God and found you with his spirit and his life,

let him fill your heart and satisfy your soul.

Oh, let him have the things that hold you

and his spirit like a dove will descend upon your life and make you

home.

Welcome to the Word for today,

featuring the Bible Teaching of Pastor Chuck Smith,

founder of the Calbury Chapel Movement.

This radio program is a verse by verse study through the entire

Bible. And on today's edition of the word for today,

Pastor Chuck continues with the covenants of the Lord as we pick up in Deuteronomy chapter 7 verse 1.

And now with today's message here's pastor Chuck.

When God brings you into the land and casts off these enemies that are bigger and stronger than you are,

and he delivers them from before you and smites them and destroys them,

you're not to make any covenant with them, nor show any mercy unto them.

Neither shall you make any marriages with them.

For they will turn away your son from following me that they may serve other gods and so will the

anger of the Lord be kindled against you and you be destroyed suddenly. But you shall deal with

them and destroy their altars, break down their images, cut down their groves, burn their graven images in the fire.

For thou art a holy or a separated people unto the Lord thy God,

and the Lord thy God hath chosen thee to be a special people unto himself

above all the people that are upon the face of the earth.
