But thou shalt remember the LORD thy God: for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day.
A verse can bring hope. Share this message of faith with someone you care about.
Verse 18 is found in chapter 8 of Deuteronomy. Moses again warns against forgetting the Lord when Israel achieves economic and military prosperity. Wealth can create the illusion that its own strength obtained the land. Therefore the people must remember that God is the one who gives the ability to produce wealth and remains faithful to the covenant. Forgetting God would lead to the same destruction that affected the nations expelled from the land.
