On Sunday, October 22 at Redeemer Presbyterian Church in Charleston, SC, our senior pastor preached from Deuteronomy 34:1-4 as part of his Deuteronomy sermon series. He recounted the brief history of Redeemer, since we're five years this week from when the Lord provided for us in a mighty way! He encouraged us not to live any day like it was a warm-up to something greater or bigger. But that we'd say to the Lord, "Whatever your plans for us, may we joyfully and eagerly take part in them."
Though Moses was no doubt disappointed at not being able to enter the Promised Land, the Lord used Moses to bring about his Son Jesus--though Moses didn't know Jesus at all. God's sovereignty over all is amazing, so let's encourage each other in building God's Kingdom now. We're either building God's Kingdom or our own.
