“When all these things come upon you—the blessings and curses I have set before you—and you call them to mind in all the nations to which the LORD your God has banished you,
and when you and your children return to the LORD your God and obey His voice with all your heart and all your soul according to everything I am giving you today,
then He will restore you from captivity and have compassion on you and gather you from all the nations to which the LORD your God has scattered you.
Even if you have been banished to the farthest horizon, He will gather you and return you from there.
And the LORD your God will bring you into the land your fathers possessed, and you will take possession of it. He will cause you to prosper and multiply more than your fathers.
The LORD your God will circumcise your hearts and the hearts of your descendants, and you will love Him with all your heart and with all your soul, so that you may live.
Quoted in the Daily Lift, day 29: Abram Becomes Abraham: A New Name at Ninety-Nine (Genesis 17)
Quoted in the Deeper Dive, day 29: How does Abraham's covenant point to Christ?
Then the LORD your God will put all these curses upon your enemies who hate you and persecute you.
And you will again obey the voice of the LORD and follow all His commandments I am giving you today.
So the LORD your God will make you abound in all the work of your hands and in the fruit of your womb, the offspring of your livestock, and the produce of your land. Indeed, the LORD will again delight in your prosperity, as He delighted in that of your fathers,
if you obey the LORD your God by keeping His commandments and statutes that are written in this Book of the Law, and if you turn to Him with all your heart and with all your soul.
For this commandment I give you today is not too difficult for you or beyond your reach.
It is not in heaven, that you should need to ask, ‘Who will ascend into heaven to get it for us and proclaim it, that we may obey it?’
Who will ascend into heaven — the word is near you
“But the righteousness that is by faith says: “Do not say in your heart, ‘Who will ascend into heaven?’ (that is, to bring Christ down)”
Read Romans 10:6›And it is not beyond the sea, that you should need to ask, ‘Who will cross the sea to get it for us and proclaim it, that we may obey it?’
Do not say: Who will descend into the deep?
“or, ‘Who will descend into the Abyss?’ (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead).””
Read Romans 10:7›But the word is very near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart, so that you may obey it.
The word is near you — in your mouth and in your heart
“But what does it say? “The word is near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart,” that is, the word of faith we are proclaiming:”
Read Romans 10:8›See, I have set before you today life and prosperity, as well as death and disaster.
For I am commanding you today to love the LORD your God, to walk in His ways, and to keep His commandments, statutes, and ordinances, so that you may live and increase, and the LORD your God may bless you in the land that you are entering to possess.
But if your heart turns away and you do not listen, but are drawn away to bow down to other gods and worship them,
I declare to you today that you will surely perish; you shall not prolong your days in the land that you are crossing the Jordan to possess.
I call heaven and earth as witnesses against you today that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing. Therefore choose life, so that you and your descendants may live,
and that you may love the LORD your God, obey Him, and hold fast to Him. For He is your life, and He will prolong your life in the land that the LORD swore to give to your fathers, to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.”
