- 0:00Hello. Welcome to the No God Coach
- 0:02Huddle for uh May
- 0:055th, 2025. Your twominut play of the day
- 0:09for applying God's word to your life.
- 0:11So, let's huddle up and hear today's
- 0:14play from Deuteronomy 5 that says, "The
- 0:17Lord spoke to you face to face out of
- 0:20the fire on the mountain. These are the
- 0:22commandments the Lord proclaimed in a
- 0:24loud voice to your whole assembly there
- 0:26on the mountain from out of the fire. a
- 0:29cloud in the deep darkness and he added
- 0:31nothing more. Then he wrote them on two
- 0:34tone stone tablets and gave them to me.
- 0:37And then you replied, for what mortal
- 0:39has ever heard the voice of the living
- 0:41God speaking out of fire as we have and
- 0:44survived? Then God replied, oh that
- 0:47their hearts would be inclined to fear
- 0:48me and keep all my commands always so
- 0:52that it might go well with them and
- 0:53their children forever. So be careful to
- 0:56do what the Lord your God has commanded
- 0:58you. Do not turn aside to the right or
- 1:00to the left. Walk in obedience to all
- 1:03that the Lord your God has commanded you
- 1:05so that you may live and prosper and
- 1:07prolong your days in the land that you
- 1:10will pro possess. A great way to
- 1:13commemorate Cinco deio is to read and
- 1:16meditate upon the fifth book and fifth
- 1:18chapter of the Bible. Deuteronomy 5 is a
- 1:22retelling of the giving of the ten
- 1:24commandments. These commands God spoke
- 1:27by his own voice in the hearing of all
- 1:29his people. Only ten commands God gave,
- 1:32nine more than the one he gave in
- 1:34paradise before the rebellion against
- 1:37him by man led by Satan. These ten
- 1:40commandments remain nearly universal
- 1:42among humanity as the standard
- 1:45definition of right and wrong. They're
- 1:47seared upon our conscience from birth. a
- 1:49divine homing device to bring us back to
- 1:52God, the author of righteousness and the
- 1:54judge of our souls for eternity. All of
- 1:57these commands are so simple and so
- 2:00logical for our well-being. We continue
- 2:02to ignore them and disobey them to our
- 2:05demise. Our leaders have too long mocked
- 2:07God and his ways. Instead, they promote
- 2:10pleasure and their own wisdom above God,
- 2:13to the poverty of our nation. Our
- 2:15cities, our schools, and our government
- 2:17are filled with corruption and lies that
- 2:20cause us poverty, shame, and death.
- 2:23Obedience to God's ten commandments will
- 2:25not earn us heaven, but they will make
- 2:27us a better people, which is why they
- 2:29used to be taught in our schools and
- 2:31valued by our society so that we could
- 2:34live together in greater harmony and
- 2:36health morally and relationally. God now
- 2:39equips his people. All those who have
- 2:41humbled themselves before him,
- 2:42confessing their remorse at rebelling
- 2:44against God and now seeking him to lord
- 2:47over their lives through Jesus the
- 2:49savior. These he has given his holy
- 2:52spirit, his very presence for helping us
- 2:54to obey. Not only the letter of these
- 2:57commands, but the spirit behind them.
- 2:59The mission of the Christian is the
- 3:01great commission which teaches obedience
- 3:03to all Jesus's commands. The Ten
- 3:06Commandments in spirit and letter are a
- 3:08great place for Christians to begin
- 3:10obeying Jesus in their homes and in the
- 3:12marketplace. And they are a great way to
- 3:15commemorate Cinco de Mayo.
