Deuteronomy 29:29 The secret things belong to the Lord our God, (At the Lord's direction, Moses has just lined out for God's people the blessings and curses that would come upon them, depending upon their obedience to the ways of the Lord. Here the Lord reminds the people that the future, relative to their actions and subsequent consequences, while unknown to them, is known by the Lord, and, yet, He loves them still and still calls them His Own. Neither they nor we know the future, but, in His omniscience and love, the Lord knows full well our past, our present, and our future, within which He allows us to exercise the free will that He has bestowed upon us.) but the things revealed belong to us and to our children forever, that we may follow all the words of this law.
(What we do know and what the Lord has revealed to us is what He has given us in His Word,
the truths of His love and mercy, of His commandments,
of His salvation and redemption,
all present and powerful truths for today.
These are not just nice-sounding phrases and inspirational encouragements when we need a little boost. His truths, what He has revealed to us about Himself and His purposes are rock-solid fact. And He has given us these truths and commandments so that we actually do what He calls us to do, to seek Him, to obey Him, to trust Him, to yield to Him, and to commit ourselves wholly to Him.).
