Once for All
Deuteronomy 17:16
But he shall not multiply horses to himself, nor cause the people to return to Egypt, to the end that he should multiply horses…


If I can pass this way no more, then —

I. I CANNOT DO WHAT I THEN MISSED DOING.

1. What thought I of myself?

2. Did I seek God's way or my own?

II. I CANNOT UNDO WHAT I HAVE DONE. What manner of tracks did I leave in the way?

1. Oaths.

2. Drunkenness.

3. Temptations to others to do wrong.

III. IN VIEW OF THIS, HOW SHOULD I WALK?

1. Confessing my past sins.

2. Repenting of, and forsaking them.

3. Exercising a cheerful faith.

4. Doing good to all men as opportunity offers.Lessons:

1. Sad and solemn things are in the past.

2. Eternal things are before us.

(B. Knepper.)
