Our Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth or B.I.B.L.E. teaches us that our inheritance of God's blessings is the result of obedience. And in the book of Deuteronomy, God is challenging us to live a future worthy of His great inheritance through faith and obedience. He promises His children, those who devoutly love Him through faith in Jesus Christ, an inheritance of eternal blessings through genuine love evidenced by our holy living and loving others. In Deuteronomy 28:1-14, we see these promised blessings spelled out. However, God's inheritance of blessings is not to be taken for granted. These blessings are far more valuable than perishable money, silver, and gold. 

Also, it is also important to know that disobedience brings punishment. In Deuteronomy, through Moses, God warns us to teach the next generation to believe He is the one true God and that His power and faithfulness can be depended on during times of need. But He also warns that we must teach our children to fear the Lord and keep His commandments in order to inherit His blessings rather than curses (Deuteronomy 28:15-68).

Bottom line? God promises blessings for obedience and curses for disobedience. 

This is why it is so important that each generation teach the next how to develop a proper relationship with God. And discipleship under the leading of the Holy Spirit in Christ Jesus leads us to the fulfillment of God’s invaluable promises and perfect inheritance.
