Deuteronomy chapter 30 ; 31; 32

God predicts Israel's rejection of their power.

Approaching the day of the death of Moses , he presents in his last speech to the people God's desire that they would follow him confident , obeying him , fulfilling his commandments , then they would be successful , victorious , would reside in the earth in great profit, but to allow the Lord to follow other gods , corrupting herself , would be punished , they would lose the land that now God gives them. Perhaps , if that happened , how it happened, and they repent their sins . " Then the LORD thy God will turn thy captivity , and have compassion upon thee , and will return and gather thee from all the nations among which I scattered you the LORD thy God . Even if your outcasts are in the uttermost parts of heaven , from thence gather thee the LORD thy God , and will take you there. " Dt . 30 : 3-4 The Lord is gracious , merciful , righteous in all his ways, and is nigh unto all them that call upon him in truth of heart. Psalm 145 : 8 ; 17; 18 Israel did all that Moses foretold , was punished and scattered throughout the world , back in the days of Nehemiah , but rejected the promised Messiah , Jesus , and returned to be punished . In the seventies was completely destroyed and scattered throughout the earth's universe. To remain faithful to God , there was only one condition not to forget the commandments , for consultation the word of God . " For this commandment which I command you today , you are not veiled, and is it far off ... But the word is very nigh unto thee , in thy mouth , and in thy heart , that you may do ." Dt . 30 : 11; 14 The Apostle Paul quotes it and complements it , claiming to be the " Word of Faith " . Rm . 10 : 8 And King David says : "I have hidden your word in my heart that I might not sin against thee ." Psalm 119 : 11 The careful consultation the word of God is strong and prepared to face the wiles of the enemy man of faith , for it is the sword of the Spirit . Eph . 6: 17

Man is not eternal , Moses was a hundred and twenty years already tired of the fights in front of the people , God replaces it with Joshua , this eighty years old , placing it as a leader in this new stage . God invites Moses and Joshua to go into the tabernacle of the congregation and there appears to them in the pillar of cloud , predicts that people will leave him for other gods and he will let them fend for themselves .

The song as a witness of God's care and rejection of the people .

As witness to this fact commands Moses to make a song extolling their exploits and rebelliousness of Israel . " Now therefore write ye this song , and teach it the children of Israel ; put it in their mouths, that this song may be a witness for me against the children of Israel. " Dt . 31 : 19 The first song of Moses and the people were to praise God's deliverance from the Egyptians , a song of joy. Eg 15 All Singing is an expression of the soul , is joy , sadness , safety , repentance , the Psalms portrays very clearly the feelings of the soul .

This is the song of Moses a challenge against the people who rebelled to the Lord God and be punished for it . Cap 32

The extended hand of God to those who repent of their error

But God know the heart of men , knowing that they could not by itself remain faithful to the law, gave them a lifeline , Christ Jesus , because through it , believing it would be redeemed and become a new creature . "Put on therefore , as the elect of God , holy and beloved , bowels of mercies, kindness , humility , meekness , longsuffering ; Forbearing one another , and forgiving one another, if anyone has a complaint against another ; even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye . And over all these virtues put on love, which is the bond of perfection ... The word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom , teaching you and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs , singing to the Lord with grace in your hearts . And whatsoever ye do in word or deed , do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks through Him to God the Father Col. 3 : 12-14 ; 16-17
