What are his final words of motivation? Trust and Obey. It’s the only way to keep the freedom God has given them.
What about you? What will you pass on to the next generation? Let’s read Deuteronomy as the final sermon of a man who saw the miracles of God. His final words are to trust God completely and obey God completely. It’s the way of continued freedom.
