Please read Deuteronomy 17.

Meditate on this phrase from verses 7 and 12.
Purge the evil…
God knows allowing evil to remain in the land corrupts people, desensitizing them to callously continue sinning. In this chapter, the LORD tells you how to stop sinning.
· Purge the evil from your midst (v. 7).
· Write God’s Word, making a copy for yourself of verses you need to remember (v. 18).
· Keep it with you, reading God’s Word every day of your life, that you may learn to fear the LORD your God by carefully observing all His Words (v. 19).
Ask the LORD to search and purge you of evil thoughts and actions. Fill your mind with God’s Word: write it; read it; memorize it; tell it, so others can know how to please God.
Pray Deuteronomy 17:7 and 18-20 over yourself and those for whom you stand guard as a faithful, prayerful watchman (Isaiah 62:6-7).
“LORD, please purge the
evil from ________ and me.
Help us write a copy of Your
Word and keep it with us.
Let us read it all the days
of our life that we
may learn to fear You by
carefully observing all the words
of Your law and statutes, that
our hearts will not be
lifted up above others and
that we may not turn aside
from the commandments
to the right or the left, so
that our children may continue
long in Your Kingdom, Jesus~”
