A few things on my mind this morning.

Acknowledge and take to heart this day that the Lord is God in heaven above and on the earth below. There is no other.
Deut:4:39

Hear O' Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one.  Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength.  These commandements that I give you today are to be upon your hearts.
Impress them on your children.  Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up.
Tie them as symbols to your hands and bind them on your foreheads.  Write them on the doorframes of your houses and on your gates.
Deut 6:4-9

Fear the Lord your God, serve him ONLY and take your oaths in his name.
6:13

The Lord commanded us ot obey all these decrees and to fear the Lord our God so that we might always propser and be kept alive, as is the case today.
And if we are careful to bey all this law before the Lord our God, as he has commanded us, that will be our righteousness.
6:24

Are yo wondering why I am listing these passages in Deuteronomy today?
These were in my Bible reading yesterday. These really spoke to me.
Especially the one where is says.
"As is the case today"

Are you wondering why I am writing these passages from Deutoronomy today?
Well, these were part of my reading yesterday and they really spoke to me.
Especially the one that says
"As is the case today"

Why?
Well I fear that many people read through parts of the Bible and figure that things that were written in the Old Testament before the Birth of Jesus just are not as important as things written after the Birth of Jesus.

This simply is not true. 
God Is God, God has always been God. God will always Be God.
HE is the Alpha and Omega. The Beginning (Genesis) and the End (Revelation)
Things in the Old Testament are just as important and things in the New Testament. Yes a few things may have changed with it came time for Jesus to be Born, but no matter what, Gods word. Is and always will be Gods word.
Every single word of the Bible is 100% important!
Nothing is un-important.

"As is the case Today"

Whether you were reading this 2000 years ago, or 100 years in the future.
"As is the case Today" will still be there. and it means what it says.
The Lord commanded us to bey all these decrees and to fear the LORD our GOD, so that we might always prosper and be kept alive, AS IS THE CASE TODAY"

---and if we are careful to obey all this law before the LORD OUR GOD, as he has commanded us, that will be our righteousness!
