Deuteronomy 8 · Grade 2
God Took Care of Them
Read the Story
Moses said, Remember the long walk in the desert. It took forty years. God led you every day.
God gave you manna to eat. He taught you that people need more than bread. We need God's word too. Your clothes did not wear out. Your feet did not swell.
Now God is giving you a good land. It has water, wheat, grapes, and figs. When you eat and are full, bless God. Do not forget Him. Do not say, I got rich by myself. God gives you power to do it.
Memory Verse
“He humbled you, allowed you to be hungry, and fed you with manna, which you didn’t know, neither did your fathers know, that he might teach you that man does not live by bread only, but man lives by every word that proceeds out of Yahweh’s mouth.”
