引言：

‘摩西之歌’是神为着将来的世代预备的一首属灵的歌曲，让神的子民落到悖逆失败时，可以追念神的教导与恩典，回转向施恩的神！

一、歌颂恩待人的神（V1-14）

1. 父神买赎祂子民（V1-9）

神要摩西写这歌真正的目的不只是要责备，乃是要使神的百姓灵里苏醒。明白神是永远可靠信实如磐石，虽然神的子民向祂行事邪僻，慈爱的天父还是把他们从罪恶中买赎出来，并且重新建立他们。

救恩是白白得来的，已经得着的我们，应该随时随地传讲，使未得救恩的人同得福音的好处！

2.神保护引导百姓（V10-14）

这里说明神对祂百姓至深的爱，在旷野环绕、看顾、保护他们！并且独自引导他们进入丰盛。神也是如此地恩待我们：寻见我们，保护我们，引导我们，使我们生命得富足！

二、警戒人勿背逆神（V15-43）

1. 忘恩离神惹怒神（V15-21）

当神的百姓蒙恩离弃神，惹怒了恒久忍耐等待他们回转的神，神严厉的管教便要临到他们！

2. 背逆神必受管教（V22-34）

当神的百姓离弃神，神就施行严厉的管教。神不是要虐待祂的子民，神是要借着管教，让他们知道，原来他们转而去跟从的假神，其实不能拯救他们，反而会使他们败坏受审判！

神对祂的子民施行管教的另一个目的，是要他们因所遭遇的事而醒悟，去思念他们的结局！

3. 在神以外无别神（V35-43）

摩西之歌的最后这个段落，给我们看见，原来神让百姓受苦，是要让百姓明白，在神以外无别神！神的管教虽然彻底，神的拯救也是完全彻底的，能够使百姓重新经历神的慈爱，使百姓重新回到神的恩典之中。

三、摩西的训言与见证（V44-52）

1. 摩西的最后训言（V44-47）

摩西在这里留下他的最后训言，告诉百姓神的律法不是虚空的，不但不是与他们无关，其实是与他们的生死攸关！

2. 摩西的生命见证（V48-52）

最后这一段记载了神让摩西登山，只能看却不能进去的应许之地，原因是在旷野神要摩西吩咐石头出水，摩西却拿起杖来击磐出水，因此没有尊神为圣得罪了神。

摩西的经历却成为警戒后人的生命见证，使神的百姓紧记，神是轻慢不得的！领袖如摩西犯罪也要受罚！

总结：

愿我们从摩西之歌，牢牢记住：人能否蒙福、兴旺、日子长久，在于遵守神的诫命！ 愿我们也能留下一首生命之歌：成为后代的祝福！激励他们敬畏神敬爱神！

Deuteronomy 32: The Song of Moses
GK611 Morning Devotion
25/11/2022
Speaker: Ps Daniel Kew + Rev Tan

Introduction:

The 'Song of Moses' is a spiritual song prepared by God for future generations, so that when God's people fall into disobedience and failure, they can recall God's teaching and grace and turn back to the God of grace!

1. Sing praises to a gracious God (V1-14)

(1) God the Father bought and redeemed His people (v1-9)

God's true purpose in asking Moses to write this song was not merely to rebuke, but to revive the spirit of God's people. They were to understand that God is ever reliable and faithful as a rock, and that although God's people acted wickedly toward Him, the loving Father redeemed them from their sins, and rebuilt them.

Salvation is freely given, and we who have been saved should preach at all times and in all places, so that the unsaved may receive the benefits of the gospel together!

(2) God protects and guides the people (V10-14)

Here God's deep love for His people is shown, as He surrounded, watched over, and protected them in the wilderness! And leads them alone into the fullness. God is so gracious to us: He finds us, protects us, guides us, and gives us an abundant lives!

2. Warn people not to rebel against God (V15-43)

(1) To anger God by forgetting His grace and forsaking Him (V15-21)

When God's people are blessed, but they turn away from God and anger God who has been waiting patiently for them to turn back, God's severe discipline will come upon them!

(2) The discipline for rebellion against God (V22-34)

When God's people turn away from Him, He imposes severe discipline. God does not want to mistreat His people, but He wants to show them through discipline that the false gods they have turned to will not save them, but will cause them to be corrupted and judged!

Another purpose of God's discipline of His people is to awaken them to what has happened to them and to think about their end!

(3) There is no other God beside Jehovah (V35-43)

This last passage of the Song of Moses shows us that God made the people suffer in order to make them understand that there is no other God beside Jehovah! Although God's discipline is thorough, God's salvation is also complete and thorough, enabling the people to experience God's love again and bringing them back to God's grace.

3. The Discipline and Testimony of Moses (V44-52)

Here Moses left his last words, telling the people that God's law was not vain, not only was it not irrelevant to them, but it was actually a matter of life and death for them!

(1) The Last Exhortation of Moses (V44-47)

Here Moses left his last words, telling the people that God's law was not vain, not only was it not irrelevant to them, but it was actually a matter of life and death for them!

(2) The testimony of Moses' life (V48-52)

This last passage records that God told Moses to climb the mountain, but he could only see but not enter the Promised Land, because in the wilderness God asked Moses to command the rock to bring forth water, but Moses took his staff and struck the rock to bring forth water, thus offending God by not honouring Him as holy.

But Moses' experience became a warning to future generations to remember that God is not to be taken lightly! Leaders like Moses also will be punished for their sins!

Conclusion:

May we take from the Song of Moses and remember: whether a person will be blessed, will prosper, and to have long days, lies in keeping the commandments of God!

May we also leave behind a song of life: to be a blessing to future generations! Inspire them to fear and love God!
