Compare all

6 ^aThere you shall take your burnt offerings, your sacrifices, your tithes, the heave offerings of your hand, your vowed offerings, your freewill offerings, and the ^bfirstborn of your herds and flocks.

7 And ^athere you shall eat before the Lord your God, and ^byou shall rejoice in all to which you have put your hand, you and your households, in which the Lord your God has blessed you.

8 “You shall not at all do as we are doing here today—^aevery man doing whatever is right in his own eyes—

9 for as yet you have not come to the ^arest and the inheritance which the Lord your God is giving you.

10 But when you cross over the Jordan and dwell in the land which the Lord your God is giving you to inherit, and He gives you ^arest from all your enemies round about, so that you dwell in safety,

11 then there will be the place where the Lord your God chooses to make His name abide. There you shall bring all that I command you: your burnt offerings, your sacrifices, your tithes, the heave offerings of your hand, and all your choice offerings which you vow to the Lord.

12 And ^ayou shall rejoice before the Lord your God, you and your sons and your daughters, your male and female servants, and the ^bLevite who is within your gates, since he has no portion nor inheritance with you.

Deuteronomy 12:1-10

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.
