  God is in control.

  She's a happy girl. Hello, friends, and welcome back to another podcast of Woman
• 0:10
  at the Well Ministries, where we believe that all of us have to come to Jesus
• 0:15
  like the woman at the well in John chapter 4.
• 0:18
  Our highest priority is making God real in your life.
• 0:21
  Whether you are listening in our app, in your favorite podcasting app,
• 0:25
  or on our website at watwm.org, We invite you to sit down with us as we look
• 0:31
  to the scriptures to learn more about God and to strengthen your daily walk with Jesus Christ.
• 1:03
  Have you ever experienced the overwhelming goodness of God when you simply chose to obey Him?
• 1:09
  Deuteronomy chapter 28 paints one of the most vivid pictures in all of Scripture
• 1:14
  of what it means to live under the blessing of obedience.
• 1:18
  As the Israelites prepare to enter the promised land, God gave them this promise.
• 1:22
  And it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of
• 1:26
  the Lord thy God, all these blessings shall come on thee and overtake thee.
• 1:32
  In this chapter, Moses reminds God's people that their obedience would bring
• 1:35
  blessings so abundant that they would overflow into every part of life.
• 1:39
  Blessings in their homes, in their work, in their families, and in their future.
• 1:44
  But he also warns that disobedience would bring sorrow, loss, and despair.
• 1:49
  For those of us living on this side of the cross, the message is the same.
• 1:54
  Obedience brings blessing, not because we earn God's love, but because walking
• 1:58
  in His ways keeps us close to His heart.
• 2:00
  Join us in this episode of the Woman at the Well Ministries podcast as Erica
• 2:04
  Close teaches from Deuteronomy chapter 28 and explores how listening to the
• 2:09
  Lord and walking in obedience still leads to joy,
• 2:13
  peace, and overflowing blessing today.
• 2:17
  Let's jump right into the,
• 2:20
  Let's jump right into Deuteronomy chapter 28. It's a long one.
• 2:25
  And it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of
• 2:29
  the Lord thy God, to observe and to do all his commandments,
• 2:32
  which I command thee this day, that the Lord thy God will set thee on high above
• 2:37
  all nations of the earth.
• 2:38
  And all these blessings shall come on thee and overtake thee,
• 2:42
  if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God.
• 2:45
  Blessed shalt thou be in the city, and blessed shalt thou be in the field.
• 2:50
  Blessed shall be the fruit of thy body, and the fruit of thy ground,
• 2:54
  and the fruit of thy cattle, the increase of thy kind, and the flocks of thy sheep.
• 2:59
  Blessed be thy basket, and thy store.
• 3:02
  Blessed shalt thou be when thou comest in, and blessed shalt thou be when thou goest out.
• 3:07
  The Lord shall cause thine enemies that rise up against thee to be smitten before they face.
• 3:13
  They shall come out against thee one way, and flee before thee seven ways.
• 3:18
  The Lord shall command the blessing upon thee in thy storehouses,
• 3:22
  and in all that thou settest thine hand unto, and he shall bless thee in the
• 3:27
  land which the Lord thy God giveth thee.
• 3:29
  The Lord shall establish thee in holy people unto himself, as he has sworn unto
• 3:34
  thee, if thou shalt keep the commandments of the Lord thy God, and walk in his ways.
• 3:39
  And all people of the earth shall see that thou art called by the name of the
• 3:43
  Lord, and they shall be afraid of thee.
• 3:46
  And the Lord shall make thee plenteous in goods, in the fruit of thy body,
• 3:51
  and in the fruit of thy cattle, and in the fruit of thy ground,
• 3:54
  in the land which the Lord sware unto thy fathers to give thee.
• 3:57
  The Lord shall open unto thee his good treasure, the heaven to give the rain
• 4:02
  unto thy land in his season, and to bless all the work of thine hand.
• 4:06
  And thou shalt lend unto many nations, and thou shalt not borrow.
• 4:11
  And the Lord shall make thee the head, and not the tail. And thou shalt be above
• 4:15
  only, and thou shalt not be beneath.
• 4:18
  If thou shalt hearken unto the commandments of the Lord thy God,
• 4:22
  which I command thee this day, to observe and to do them.
• 4:25
  And thou shalt not go aside from any of the words which I command thee this
• 4:30
  day, to the right hand or to the left, to go after other gods, to serve them.
• 4:35
  But it shall come to pass, if thou wilt not hearken unto the voice of the Lord
• 4:40
  thy God, to observe to do all his commandments and his statutes,
• 4:44
  which I command thee this day, that all these curses shall come upon thee and overtake thee.
• 4:51
  Cursed shalt thou be in the city, and cursed shalt thou be in the field.
• 4:55
  Cursed shall be thy basket in thy store.
• 4:59
  Cursed shall be the fruit of thy body, and the fruit of thy land,
• 5:02
  the increase of thy kind, and the flocks of thy sheep.
• 5:06
  Cursed shalt thou be when thou comest in, and cursed shalt thou be when thou goest out.
• 5:11
  The Lord shall send upon thee cursing, vexation, and rebuke,
• 5:16
  and all that thou settest thine hand unto for to do until thou be destroyed,
• 5:21
  and until thou perish quickly because of the wickedness of thy doings,
• 5:25
  whereby thou hast forsaken me.
• 5:27
  The Lord shall make the pestilence cleave unto thee until he hath consumed thee
• 5:32
  from off the land, whither thou goest to possess it.
• 5:35
  The Lord shall smite thee, with a consumption, and with a fever,
• 5:39
  and with an inflammation, and with an extreme burning, and with a sword,
• 5:44
  and with blasting, and with mildew, and they shall pursue thee until thou perish.
• 5:50
  And thy heaven that is over thy head shall be brass, and the earth that is under thee shall be iron.
• 5:56
  The Lord shall make the rain of thy land powder and dust. From heaven shall
• 6:01
  it come down upon thee until thou be destroyed.
• 6:04
  The Lord shall cause thee to be smitten before thine enemies.
• 6:08
  Thou shalt go out one way against them and flee seven ways before them and shall
• 6:12
  be removed into all kingdoms of the earth.
• 6:15
  And thy carcass shall be meat unto the fowls of the air and unto the beasts
• 6:20
  of the earth, and no man shall fray them away.
• 6:24
  The Lord will smite thee with the botch of Egypt, and with the emeralds,
• 6:28
  and with the scab, and with the itch, whereof thou canst not be healed.
• 6:33
  The Lord shall smite thee with madness, and blindness, and astonishment of heart.
• 6:38
  And thou shalt grope at noon day, as the blind gropeth in darkness,
• 6:42
  and thou shalt not prosper in thy ways, and thou shalt be only oppressed, and spoiled evermore.
• 6:49
  And no man shall save thee.
• 6:51
  Thou shalt betroth a wife, and another man shall lie with her.
• 6:54
  Thou shalt build a house, and thou shalt not dwell therein.
• 6:58
  Thou shalt plant a vineyard, and shalt not gather the grapes thereof.
• 7:02
  Thine oxen shall be slain before thine eyes, and thou shalt not eat thereof.
• 7:07
  Thine ash shall be violently taken away from before thy face,
• 7:11
  and shalt not be restored to thee.
• 7:13
  Thy sheep shall be given unto thine enemies, and thou shalt have none to rescue them.
• 7:18
  Thy sons and thy daughters shall be given unto another people,
• 7:22
  and thine eyes shall look and fail with longing for them all the day long,
• 7:25
  and there shall be no might in thine hand.
• 7:29
  The fruit of thy land and all thy labor shall a nation which thou knowest not
• 7:33
  eat up, and thou shalt only be oppressed and crushed away.
• 7:37
  So that thou shalt be mad for the sight of thine eyes which thou shalt see.
• 7:42
  The Lord shall smite thee in the knees and in the legs, with a sore botch that
• 7:47
  cannot be healed, and the sole of thy foot unto the top of thy head.
• 7:51
  The Lord shall bring thee and thy king which thou shalt set over thee unto a
• 7:56
  nation which neither thou nor thornigh fathers have known, and there shalt thou
• 8:00
  serve other gods, wood and stone.
• 8:03
  And thou shalt become an astonishment, a proverb, and a byword among all nations,
• 8:09
  whither the Lord shall lead thee.
• 8:11
  Thou shalt carry much seed out into the field, and shalt gather but little in,
• 8:16
  for the locust shall consume it.
• 8:19
  Thou shalt plant vineyards, and dress them, but shalt neither drink of the wine,
• 8:23
  nor gather the grapes, for the worms shall eat them.
• 8:26
  Thou shalt have olive trees throughout all thy coasts, but thou shalt not anoint
• 8:30
  thyself with the oil, for thine oil shall cast his fruit.
• 8:34
  Thou shalt begat sons and daughters, but thou shalt not enjoy them,
• 8:38
  for they shall go into captivity.
• 8:40
  All thy trees and fruit of thy land shall the locusts consume.
• 8:45
  The stranger that is within thee shall get up above thee very high,
• 8:50
  and thou shalt come down very low.
• 8:53
  He shall lend to thee, and thou shalt not lend to him.
• 8:57
  He shall be the head, and thou shalt be the tail.
• 9:01
  Moreover, all these curses shall come upon thee, and shall pursue thee,
• 9:05
  and overtake thee, till thou be destroyed, because thou hearkenest not unto
• 9:10
  the voice of the Lord thy God, to keep his commandments and his statutes,
• 9:14
  which he commanded thee.
• 9:16
  And they shall be upon thee for a sign and for a wonder, and upon thy seed for ever.
• 9:22
  Because thou servest not the Lord thy God with joyfulness, and with gladness
• 9:26
  of heart, the abundance of all things.
• 9:29
  Therefore shalt thou serve thine enemies, which the Lord shall send against
• 9:34
  thee, in hunger, and in thirst, and in nakedness, and in want of all things.
• 9:40
  And he shall put a yoke of iron upon thy neck, until he hath destroyed thee.
• 9:44
  The Lord shall bring a nation against thee from afar, from the ends of the earth,
• 9:49
  as swift as the eagle flyeth, a nation whose tongue thou shalt not understand,
• 9:53
  a nation of fierce countenance, which shalt not regard the person of the old
• 9:58
  nor show favor to the young.
• 9:59
  And he shall eat the fruit of thy cattle and the fruit of thy land,
• 10:03
  until thou be destroyed, which also shalt not leave thee either corn,
• 10:08
  wine, or oil, or the increase of thine kind or flocks of thy sheep,
• 10:12
  until he hath destroyed thee.
• 10:13
  And he shall besiege thee in all thy gates, until thy high and fenced walls
• 10:18
  come down wherein thou trustest throughout all thy land, and he shall besiege
• 10:23
  thee in all thy gates throughout all thy land, which the Lord thy God hath given thee.
• 10:28
  And thou shalt eat the fruit of thine own body, the flesh of thy sons and of
• 10:33
  thy daughters, which the Lord thy God hath given thee in the siege and in the
• 10:37
  straightness, wherewith thine enemies shall distress thee.
• 10:41
  So that the man that is tender among you and very delicate, his eye shall be
• 10:45
  evil toward his brother and toward the wife of his bosom and toward the remnant
• 10:48
  of his children which he shall leave,
• 10:50
  so that he will not give to any of them of the flesh of his children whom he
• 10:54
  shall eat, because he hath nothing left him in the siege,
• 10:58
  in the straightness, wherewith thine enemy shall distress thee in all thy gates.
• 11:02
  The tender and delicate woman among you which would not adventure to set the
• 11:06
  sole of her foot upon the ground for delicateness and tenderness,
• 11:10
  her eye shall be evil, toward the husband of her bosom, and toward her son,
• 11:14
  and toward her daughter,
• 11:15
  and toward her young one that cometh out from between her feet,
• 11:19
  and toward her children which she shall bear, for she shall eat them,
• 11:23
  for want of all things secretly in this siege and straightness,
• 11:27
  wherewith thine enemy shall distress thee in thy gates.
• 11:30
  If thou wilt not observe to do all the words of the law that are written in this book.
• 11:35
  That thou mayest fear this glorious and fearful name, the Lord thy God.
• 11:40
  Then the Lord will make thy plagues wonderful, and the plagues of thy seed even
• 11:44
  great plagues, and of long continuance, and sore sickness, and of long continuance.
• 11:51
  Moreover, he will bring upon thee all the diseases of Egypt,
• 11:54
  which thou wast afraid of, and they shall cleave unto thee.
• 11:58
  Also every sickness and every plague, which is not written in the book of this
• 12:03
  law, them will the Lord bring upon thee until thou be destroyed.
• 12:07
  And ye shall be left few in number, whereas ye were as the stars of heaven for
• 12:12
  multitude, because thou wouldest not obey the voice of the Lord thy God.
• 12:17
  And it shall come to pass, that as the Lord rejoiced over you to do good,
• 12:22
  and to multiply you, so the Lord will rejoice over you to destroy you,
• 12:27
  and to bring you to naught, and ye shall be plucked from off the land whither
• 12:30
  thou goest to possess it.
• 12:32
  And the Lord shall scatter thee among all people from one end of the earth even.
• 12:36
  Unto the other, and there thou shalt serve other gods, which neither thou nor
• 12:41
  thy fathers have known, even wood and stone.
• 12:43
  And among these nations shalt thou find no ease, neither shall the sole of thy
• 12:49
  foot have rest, but the Lord shall give thee there a trembling heart,
• 12:54
  and failing of eyes and sorrow of mind.
• 12:57
  And thy life shall hang in doubt before thee, and thou shalt fear day and night,
• 13:02
  and shalt have none assurance of thy life.
• 13:05
  And thy life shall hang in doubt before thee, and thou shalt fear day and night,
• 13:11
  and shalt have none assurance of thy life.
• 13:15
  In the morning thou shalt say, Would God it were even, and at even thou shalt
• 13:19
  say, Would God it were morning.
• 13:21
  For the fear of thine heart wherewith thou shalt fear, and for the sight of
• 13:25
  thine eyes which thou shalt see.
• 13:28
  And the Lord shall bring thee into Egypt again with ships. By the way whereof
• 13:32
  I spake unto thee, thou shalt see it no more again.
• 13:36
  And there ye shall be sold into your enemies, for bondmen and bondwomen, and no man shall buy you.
• 13:44
  Deuteronomy chapter 28 is the longest chapter in the book of Deuteronomy,
• 13:49
  and it closely follows from the very end of chapter 27.
• 13:53
  In fact, 27 flows directly into Deuteronomy 28.
• 13:57
  At the end of 27, if you remember, the Israelites were gathered at Mount Ebal and Mount Gerizim.
• 14:04
  Half of the tribes stood on Mount Ebal and the other half on Mount Gerizim.
• 14:08
  The Levites and the priests spoke curses to those standing on Mount Ebal,
• 14:12
  and the people repeated them back.
• 14:14
  Then they were to speak the blessings to those on Mount Gerizim.
• 14:18
  And the whole point of this ceremony was to show that blessing and obedience
• 14:22
  were inseparable, and that the entire nation was agreeing together to obey the
• 14:28
  Lord and receive his blessings.
• 14:30
  As chapter 28 opens, Moses reminds the Israelites that their obedience to the
• 14:35
  voice of the Lord is the foundation of all blessing.
• 14:39
  The blessings that would follow were not random favors, but the direct result
• 14:43
  of a faithful and obedient relationship with God.
• 14:46
  They were literally the fruit of covenant obedience.
• 14:50
  In verses 3 through 6, Moses shows that all aspects of Israel's life would be
• 14:55
  touched by these blessings.
• 14:57
  They would be blessed in the city and in the field. Their children,
• 15:01
  their crops, and their livestock would flourish.
• 15:04
  Their baskets and their storehouses would overflow, providing for both the present and the future.
• 15:10
  They would be blessed when they came in and when they went out.
• 15:14
  God's blessings would touch every part of their lives.
• 15:18
  Verses 7 through 14 are full of promises. Promises of victory, abundance, and honor.
• 15:24
  And in verse 7, God promises victory over their enemies.
• 15:28
  In verse 9, He promises to establish them as a holy people unto Himself,
• 15:32
  if they would keep His commandments and walk in His ways.
• 15:36
  In verse 10, we see that other nations would recognize that they belonged to the one true living God.
• 15:42
  Verse 11 promises abundance in children, in livestock, and in crops.
• 15:47
  And in verse 12, the Lord promises to open his good treasure,
• 15:51
  the heavens, to give rain and to bless all the work of their hands.
• 15:56
  The Israelites would lend to many nations and would never borrow.
• 16:00
  And in verse 13, God promises that they would be the head and not the tail,
• 16:04
  that they would be a leader among all the nations around them.
• 16:08
  Finally, verse 14 closes the section with a clear command.
• 16:12
  They were not to turn aside from any of God's words, either to the right nor
• 16:16
  to the left, nor to go after other gods.
• 16:20
  The blessings of God would only come through complete obedience to his word.
• 16:26
  The second section of this chapter, from verses 15 through 68,
• 16:31
  is a really long and sobering warning about the consequences of disobedience.
• 16:37
  It begins with a reminder that the curses would come if the Israelites did not
• 16:41
  listen to the voice of the Lord.
• 16:42
  The same categories that were blessed earlier, the city, the field,
• 16:46
  the basket, the store, the body, and the crops, would now be cursed.
• 16:51
  Disobedience would unravel every one of those blessings that were previously shared.
• 16:56
  They would be cursed in the city and in the field. Their work would fail,
• 17:01
  their fruit would wither, and their comings and their goings would bring sorrow instead of joy.
• 17:08
  Verses 20-24 describe confusion, rebuke, pestilence, and drought as the result of disobedience.
• 17:15
  The heavens above would become as brass and the earth beneath as iron.
• 17:20
  Even nature itself would testify against their sin.
• 17:25
  God made it clear that their rebellion would not only affect them as individuals
• 17:30
  and them as a community, but it would affect the land itself.
• 17:36
  And remember, this was supposed to be a land that flowed with milk and honey.
• 17:42
  In verses 25-37, the Lord warns that Israel would face defeat and oppression.
• 17:48
  They would suffer the same plagues that struck Egypt.
• 17:51
  They would face mental and emotional anguish, blindness, and despair.
• 17:56
  Their marriages would be broken, their crops would fail, their livestock would
• 18:00
  die, and their children would be taken from them.
• 18:02
  The most tragic prophecy comes in verses 36 and 37, that a foreign king would
• 18:07
  rule over them, that they would serve other gods, and that they would become,
• 18:11
  quote-unquote, in astonishment, a proverb, and a byword among the nations.
• 18:15
  They would literally be a nation that people told stories about.
• 18:23
  Verses 38 through 44 describe economic loss and a complete reversal of what
• 18:30
  should happen in society.
• 18:33
  The Israelites' labor would be in vain.
• 18:36
  Foreigners would take what they had worked for. Their children would be taken into captivity.
• 18:42
  And instead of being the head, they would become the tail.
• 18:46
  Disobedience would completely undo all that obedience had promised to them.
• 18:53
  Verses 45 through 57 continue this really painful warning.
• 18:58
  Verse 45 makes it clear that once again, not listening to the voice of the Lord
• 19:02
  would bring about all of these curses.
• 19:04
  And the judgments would serve as a sign and a wonder, a warning to future generations.
• 19:10
  Verse 47 reveals the heart of the problem. Because of service not the Lord thy
• 19:15
  God with joyfulness and with gladness of heart.
• 19:19
  Their lack of joyful obedience would bring devastating consequences.
• 19:25
  They would be enslaved by a nation from afar with a fierce countenance.
• 19:29
  Their cities would be besieged, their walls torn down.
• 19:33
  This description turns really horrifying in verses 53-57 as people resort to
• 19:39
  literally eating their own children,
• 19:42
  a symbol of how sin corrupts even the most basic moral instincts.
• 19:51
  Disobedience didn't just lead the Israelites to ruin, but to a true moral decay
• 19:58
  that would cut to the very heart of their humanity.
• 20:03
  The last section begins with a final if-then warning.
• 20:08
  If they would not obey the Lord, all of these curses would come upon them.
• 20:13
  They would suffer plagues, diseases, and a great decrease in population.
• 20:19
  Verse 62 says that though they were meant to be as numerous as the stars of
• 20:23
  heaven, because of disobedience, they would be left few in number.
• 20:28
  They would be plucked from off the land that God had given them.
• 20:32
  The chapter closes with one of the most chilling prophecies in all of Scripture.
• 20:37
  Verse 64 says that the Lord would scatter them among all nations,
• 20:41
  and that in those lands they would find no rest or ease.
• 20:45
  Their lives would hang in doubt before them. They would live in constant fear,
• 20:50
  wishing morning would come at night, and night would come in the morning.
• 20:53
  And the final warning declares that they would be returned to bondage,
• 20:58
  just like they were in Egypt, and sold to their enemies.
• 21:03
  Deuteronomy 28 is one of the most powerful and sobering chapters in all of Scripture.
• 21:08
  It reminds us that our relationship with God is not a casual one.
• 21:13
  It is a covenant, a promise, and that covenant is marked by obedience.
• 21:19
  The Israelites were about to enter the promised land, a land that was overflowing with blessings.
• 21:25
  But the Lord wanted them to understand that the blessings were tied to their faithfulness.
• 21:30
  The blessings described in the first 14 verses are beautiful.
• 21:35
  They show that when God's people live in obedience, every part of their lives
• 21:38
  can be touched by His favor—their homes, their work, their families,
• 21:43
  their land, and their future.
• 21:45
  The Lord doesn't bless them halfway. He blesses abundantly, and His blessings
• 21:50
  overflow into every part of life.
• 21:52
  But obedience is a key that unlocks those blessings.
• 21:56
  As believers today, we know that we cannot earn God's favor.
• 22:00
  It is a gift of grace through Jesus Christ.
• 22:04
  Yet this chapter reminds those of us on this side of the cross that obedience still matters deeply.
• 22:10
  Jesus said in John 14, 15, if you love me, keep my commandments.
• 22:16
  Our obedience is not a way to gain God's love, but it is the natural expression of it.
• 22:23
  Obedience flows from gratitude, from the realization that everything we have
• 22:27
  and everything we are comes from him.
• 22:31
  The long section about curses is difficult to read, but it teaches us something essential about sin.
• 22:38
  Sin always has consequences.
• 22:40
  When we turn away from God, we lose not only his blessings, but also the peace
• 22:44
  and joy that come from his presence.
• 22:47
  Disobedience leads to confusion, loss, fear, and despair.
• 22:53
  It corrodes everything it touches, just like it did for the Israelites.
• 22:58
  Verse 47 speaks volumes. Because thou servest not the Lord thy God with joyfulness
• 23:04
  and with gladness of heart.
• 23:06
  That verse tells me that the Lord is not just looking for rule-keeping.
• 23:11
  He's looking for hearts that delight in him and joyfully obey him.
• 23:18
  True obedience is motivated by love, and it's sustained by gratitude and thankfulness.
• 23:26
  The end of the chapter reminds us how far sin can take us into bondage,
• 23:31
  fear, and hopelessness.
• 23:33
  But for those of us on this side of the cross, there is good news.
• 23:37
  Jesus took the curse upon himself.
• 23:40
  Galatians 3.13 says, Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law,
• 23:45
  being made a curse for us.
• 23:47
  What a gift of grace. Because of Jesus, we are no longer bound to the curse
• 23:53
  of sin and disobedience.
• 23:55
  We've been given the opportunity to live in the blessing of his presence,
• 23:59
  forgiveness, and eternal life.
• 24:02
  Deuteronomy 28 reminds us to live each day in obedience, not out of fear, but out of love.
• 24:08
  It reminds us that obedience brings joy and peace, while disobedience brings sorrow and loss.
• 24:17
  God still blesses those who walk closely with him, who listen for his voice, and who follow his word.
• 24:23
  Ask yourself today, am I living a life that reflects joyful obedience to God?
• 24:30
  Am I serving him with gladness of heart?
• 24:33
  The Lord longs to bless his people, and his blessings, even now,
• 24:39
  still overflow to those who listen, love, and obey.
• 24:44
  Remember, you are loved.
• 24:47
  Jesus loves you. Amen.
