“The Lord our God has secrets known to no one. We are not accountable for them, but we and our children are accountable forever for all that he has revealed to us, so that we may obey all the terms of these instructions.“
Deuteronomy 29:29

God speaks:

• God speaks, and but doesn’t tell everything
• God speaks, and what He says matters.
• God speaks, and expects us to obey.
• God speaks, to all generations.

Secrets are for our good. If we knew everything, we would just mess everything up.

Secrets are His tell, and ours to obey.

But don’t just listen to God’s word. You must do what it says. Otherwise, you are only fooling yourselves.
James 1:22

I loved this from Enduringword.com, in response to Deuteronomy 29:9, “Therefore, obey the terms of this covenant so that you will prosper in everything you do.”

Each of these great wonders (each proof in themselves of God’s power and love for Israel) has a spiritual counterpart in our lives.

• In the wilderness God provides clothes for us.
• He gives us shoes
• In Him we conquer our enemies
• We can take the land of our spiritual enemies.

“Therefore, I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature? So why do you worry about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; and yet I say to you that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. Now if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?“
Matthew 6:25-30 (NIV)

Obey the secrets God tells me.
