As we just read there in the book of Deuteronomy 12:8-9, Moses told the people, "You shall not do as we are doing here today—every man doing what is right in his own eyes," as they crossed over into the Jordan. From that point forward, they should have been coming into the place of rest. They should have been finding the peace that God would give them, which comes with His blessing in the land of promise and peace for those who would obey His voice. It was truly the land of peace that comes from living the Word of God.
