Deuteronomy 9:22

I sense that the Lord wants us to study the Holy Habit of Fasting. Fasting is going without food in order to feast on Jesus. I sense the Lord wants his people to learn more about fasting, how to practice fasting and learn how to do it well and effectively for the kingdom.

This is the fifth part of a reading plan through the Bible, following the lectionary pattern of reading in the Psalms, Old Testament, and New Testament each day. In addition, each day this month will feature a memorization challenge for the Apostles' Creed, and there will be brief devotionals from different people in our Church scattered throughout the plan.

Deuteronomy represents the precipice between Israel's wilderness journey and their conquest to come. As God draws his people into the promised land, Moses explains and amplifies the covenantal relationship between Yahweh and his people. By calling them to obedience, Moses looks forward to the day that Israel will be a blessing to all the nations of the earth.
