Deuteronomy 34

There has never been another prophet in Israel like Moses, whom the Lord knew face to face. v.10
Moses was the only person who ever spoke with God face to face. He was called Israel's greatest prophet. Yet even this great man was not allowed to enter the Promised Land because he disobeyed God. No matter how good we are or how much we've done for God, we sometimes disobey him. The result of our disobedience is that we will be disciplined. God disciplined Moses severely but still called him his friend. When you experience the sting of God's discipline, respond as Moses did. Don't turn away in anger, embarrassment. Instead, turn toward God with love, openness, and desire to do better.
