Video of the Day: Trailer from the 2005 movie “End of the Spear”
Bible Verse of the Day:
See, I set before you today life and prosperity, death and destruction. 16 For I command you today to love the Lord your God, to walk in obedience to him, and to keep his commands, decrees and laws; then you will live and increase, and the Lord your God will bless you in the land you are entering to possess. 17 But if your heart turns away and you are not obedient, and if you are drawn away to bow down to other gods and worship them, 18 I declare to you this day that you will certainly be destroyed. You will not live long in the land you are crossing the Jordan to enter and possess, Deuteronomy 30:15-18.
Biblical Connection:
During his farewell address to the nation of Israel with Joshua set to take over as their spiritual leader, Moses highlights the importance of the choices that you make in life. In the film End of the Spear, based upon the truth story of 5 male missionaries, each died a martyr’s life. Sometimes following God’s call to fulfill the great commission, Acts 1:8, is just as dangerous as making a bad decision which gives the devil a foothold over your life, Ephesians 4:26-27.
The book of Deuteronomy means second law. As human beings, we tend to be forgetful individuals. Subsequently, the further you drift from God and the Bible, the more your mind is open to the ways of this progressive age. Yet, to those who look to the Bible for daily guidance, Moses points out that this results in blessings from God. As Christianity becomes a habit and way of life, this life changing decision will prepare you for any situation that you may encounter.
Closing Song:
Mincayani is born into a violent tribe who lives by the motto spear and live or be speared and die. After taking part in the deaths of 5 missionary men, who activated their faith, Mincayani’s life is transformed when he meets the son of the father he killed. One life changing decision led to the salvation of many members of the Waodani tribe. This is what God can do when faith is activated.
