Overview

Wiersbe's "Be" Series on the Old Testament—Practical, devotional, and concise describes the "Be" series. Each of these mini-commentaries contains a wealth of practical insight into God's Word. This resource covers the entire book of Deuteronomy.

Are you equipped to face the future?

There are opportunities ahead—and battles. Are you ready?

The truths that Moses shared in Deuteronomy are just what we need today as we face the unknown future:

• How to recognize and use the lessons of the past
• The importance of God's law
• The preeminence of love in the life of liberty
• How God deals with failure
• What it means to share in God's covenant

As Israel's new generation prepared to enter the Promised Land, Moses taught them the basic truths they needed to know in order to defeat the enemy and claim their inheritance. These spiritual principles still work today!

The future is your friend when Jesus Christ is your Lord and the Bible is your guide! Learn from Moses, one of history's greatest teachers, what it means to be an overcomer, able to fulfill the purpose God has for you.

“Philosopher George Santayana wrote, ‘Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it,’^{1” (Pages 10–11)}

“Believers today must find their life and victory in God’s Word. Unless we know what God commands, we can’t obey Him; but if we know His commandments, believe them, and obey them, then His power goes to work in our lives. ‘And His commandments are not burdensome’ (1 John 5:3, nkjv). Obeying the Lord becomes a joyful privilege when you realize that His commandments are expressions of His love, assurances of His strength, invitations to His blessing, opportunities to grow and bring Him glory, and occasions to enjoy His love and fellowship as we seek to please Him. God’s Word is the open door into the treasury of His grace.” (Page 27)

“We aren’t blessed because of what we are in ourselves but because of what we are in Christ (Eph. 1:3–14).” (Page 45)

“Moses urged his people to love the Lord, because love is the greatest motive for obedience” (Pages 6–7)

“It’s when we forget our high calling that we descend into low living.” (Page 24)
