Deuteronomy 8:7-10 LOOK 👀 UP!

 7For the LORD your God is bringing you into a good land, a land of brooks and fountains and springs that flow through the valleys and hills; 8a land of wheat, barley, vines, fig trees, and pomegranates; a land of olive oil and honey; 9a land where you will eat food without scarcity, where you will lack nothing; a land whose rocks are iron and whose hills are ready to be mined for copper. 10When you eat and are satisfied, you are to bless the LORD your God for the good land that He has given you.


“The reference to iron and copper in the hills is remarkably exact. Ancient copper mines and smelters have been discovered in recent years in the Arabah below the Dead Sea, and geological survey has demonstrated the presence of ores of copper and iron in the nearby hills.” (Thompson)


LOOK ðŸ‘€ UP!

Do you see a correlation between verse 10 and this verse?

Matthew 6: 33But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added unto you.


Brethren, when you eat and are satisfied, you are to bless the LORD your God for everything you have, giving thanks to Him.

Seek first the kingdom of God! And all these things will be added unto you.

Do you bless Him for His blessings or take everything He gives you for granted?


Blessings
