Precedent Protected

Therefore thou shalt love the LORD thy God, and keep his charge, and his statutes, and his judgments, and his commandments, alway.

2 And know ye this day: for I speak not with your children which have not known, and which have not seen the chastisement of the LORD your God, his greatness, his mighty hand, and his stretched out arm,

3 And his miracles, and his acts, which he did in the midst of Egypt unto Pharaoh the king of Egypt, and unto all his land;

4 And what he did unto the army of Egypt, unto their horses, and to their chariots; how he made the water of the Red sea to overflow them as they pursued after you, and how the LORD hath destroyed them unto this day;

5 And what he did unto you in the wilderness, until ye came into this place;

6 And what he did unto Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, the son of Reuben: how the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed them up, and their households, and their tents, and all the substance that was in their possession, in the midst of all Israel:

7 But your eyes have seen all the great acts of the LORD which he did.

Deuteronomy 11:1-7

- The Lord it seems has kept a record of his judgements unto men down through the ages, particularly those noteable cases worth remembering that set a precedent if you will for how he deals with his people. Suffice to say that as the good Shepherd of all of his people he does not anything not without reason. Herein are his purposes found for a chastening rather as unto the Lord. It follows though their response in particular that these shouldest know or at least have come chasing on after.

- Nor does the chastening come all by itself but rather in a number of forms. There's greatness, a mighty hand, and an outstretched arm seen there for you with which he makes known his judgements there unto men and also is protecting his people and fulfilling his purpose just as he promised to men. The miracles and acts also are means of his purpose, his promise, and his deliverance rather with which we know that we are safe in his hands.

- There's Egypt mentioned first and foremost as a place to shelter and deliver his people which became that of terror instead of a refuge. In fact, far from sheltering these had turned into slavery with whips and with chains and of making of bricks without straw to be found all in the name of proving their greatness there among men. It's this perspective much rather and an unwillingness to listen to God while truth was there to be found that led to their downfall much rather as though he were somehow unjust which punished them that came chasing on after, a bringing down of their kingdom to nothing there in his sight. Sure, it still endures for a time yet when our God has called time down below it's running out just as the snow.

- Then there's his people though unbelieving at times who've never strayed too far from out of his hands. To these he's been faithful just as it's been said in his Word that he swore by himself when there was none greater besides. It's for this cause then that there's none else there besides our Father and then. So if it's he has just judged his people righteously by all of his children it's so that we too might pause and consider The greatness of our God that sends us by him.

- Finally, there's the last of the three witnesses of Christ wherever these be. These were made as unto nothing to the depths of the earth down below to wherever our God would have had then in store. It's a holiness and justness to be found then with him that suffers not any to fall from his Word yet again. Nor is there possibility that the believing should likewise perish or be cut off from the people even still in the presence of sin. These were they who rebelled against the leadership and the order created who sought to make themselves as gods in his sight. Not content with that these even employed themselves busily in cursing the people or making them to stumble in wandering off from the Lord. To these then it appears just that he's watching for them to bring them to a suitable end just as his judgement at hand is there to be found in the land.

Conditional Inheritance

Therefore shall ye keep all the commandments which I command you this day, that ye may be strong, and go in and possess the land, whither ye go to possess it;

9 And that ye may prolong your days in the land, which the LORD sware unto your fathers to give unto them and to their seed, a land that floweth with milk and honey.

10 For the land, whither thou goest in to possess it, is not as the land of Egypt, from whence ye came out, where thou sowedst thy seed, and wateredst it with thy foot, as a garden of herbs:

11 But the land, whither ye go to possess it, is a land of hills and valleys, and drinketh water of the rain of heaven:

12 A land which the LORD thy God careth for: the eyes of the LORD thy God are always upon it, from the beginning of the year even unto the end of the year.

13 And it shall come to pass, if ye shall hearken diligently unto my commandments which I command you this day, to love the LORD your God, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul,

14 That I will give you the rain of your land in his due season, the first rain and the latter rain, that thou mayest gather in thy corn, and thy wine, and thine oil.

15 And I will send grass in thy fields for thy cattle, that thou mayest eat and be full.

16 Take heed to yourselves, that your heart be not deceived, and ye turn aside, and serve other gods, and worship them;

17 And then the LORD's wrath be kindled against you, and he shut up the heaven, that there be no rain, and that the land yield not her fruit; and lest ye perish quickly from off the good land which the LORD giveth you.

Deuteronomy 11:8-17

- Well it seems like the three land problem has at last come for his children. See, the inheritance is much like the masters of it themselves, either a curse or a blessing depending on which one you'd choose for the eating. In fact, there's a problem too wherein possession of the inheritance isn't nearly the same as it is when making his name great among men. It's almost like one's connected to the other there in his sight making sure that you haven't his Word returned to him void by your actions and then or simply by finding no fault on the whole.

- That's to say that if there's something wrong with the land in the bringing of thorns and of thistles as there in his sight, it's simply that his name should be great among men. Egypt's land see came with it's own set of masters who'd trodden it down rather. In fact, the seed was often times watered and planted by the ages of man. It doesn't make sense does it for it to be merely watered by the blood of the saints or God's chosen people and their own sweat and their tears. That's to say there's something wrong with that picture for it's not as altogether righteous as our Father in Heaven.

- Then there's the inheritance in it's natural, freed-up state as it's already been promised to man. There's no curse anymore there on that land. In fact, it bringeth forth just he had said all the good things of the Lord. There's honey and milk flowing forth from his hand just cause he's tried it for then and so has it been promised to men. Just like anything else you'd consider, the inheritance too has come with conditional promises rather of faithfulness unto the Lord there in full lest all the curses and the ill-will told of time and again should then return to fall upon men.

- Though there's the third and final position, that of the land that has been cursed as of from Heaven. It's what comes after the deception that follows as unto the Lord. You know, when someone appears to be outwardsly serving the Lord yet within there's an open pit full of all dead men's bones and those of the prophets besides that up till that time were right in his eyes. There's a natural result then that follows so truly that of no rain from heaven or fruit therein to be found in the land and so too the barrenness follows as all good things that are shut up from the hand of the Lord. Then from the blackness there's creeping in all the bad things once again and speedily the Lord will make rid of his children. Though it doesn't make sense does it that he does all these things from the start.

Acceptance of Blessings

18 Therefore shall ye lay up these my words in your heart and in your soul, and bind them for a sign upon your hand, that they may be as frontlets between your eyes.

19 And ye shall teach them your children, speaking of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.

20 And thou shalt write them upon the door posts of thine house, and upon thy gates:

21 That your days may be multiplied, and the days of your children, in the land which the LORD sware unto your fathers to give them, as the days of heaven upon the earth.

22 For if ye shall diligently keep all these commandments which I command you, to do them, to love the LORD your God, to walk in all his ways, and to cleave unto him;

23 Then will the LORD drive out all these nations from before you, and ye shall possess greater nations and mightier than yourselves.

- The frontlets untowardsly speaking were almost as wedding bands there in the making that announced to all who'd listen their service to our good Lord in Heaven.

- It's a reminder diligently to each of their children and that their own ways should be pure in his sight just as his Word is the lamp for the eyes and makes the paths bright.

- No will or legal document is ever made binding regardless of all the swearing done of our Father in Heaven or in the presence there before men without the conditional acceptance of blessings and curses that outlined behavior there on the proper.

- Think of the law thusly perfected of an on an if and or shall basis there in full.

- The writing though isn't so much that the Lord remembers, just that it's done for the benefit of the rest of his people. You know, when he'd made a covenant there with Abraham it required the offering of a sacrifice of his choosing and also the driving away of all sorts of birds there until evening. Well, it didn't really but there's always that of our Father in Heaven and a man who wanted so badly to be a good servant of him. Therefore, the comings and goings are all protected from the Lord to the people and the children also to generations still to give number are freed from the nonsense to listen to our Father in Heaven and so to receive whatever sorts of generational blessings our God would've offered. The door posts too are covered cause they're just under the blood along with a dwelling place or a refuge there for the Lord, that is if he should've ever done as Revelation had said it would happen and choosen to make his home there with his children.

- On the other hand in the leaving and cleaving and much service of nations there's the bringing about of all things that our God allowed then to happen even that of his own good will in the process of service and so also the making a blessing that should the judgement then follow it'll be just of him and not then unto men.
