I looked it up and this is what came up. Deuteronomy 26:1-10
This is the exact verse referenced on the day Bill & I closed on the land that he gave us. It represents 'first fruits', and thankfulness after being delivered from oppression and slavery. I believe this word is not just for Bill & I, but for the Nation at this time; God has delivered us from oppression and slavery to sin. Just as the Israelite's wondered in the desert doubting, and stumbling, those that believed his promises were brought into the promised land. There were many ungodly inhabitants there that needed to be removed before they could possess it.

We are in that time. God is doing the work, we simply need to obey him and believe him. To do that we need spiritual ears to hear his Holy Spirit guidance every step of the way. Seek him. Love him. Talk to him. Listen to him. Receive and possess God's promised land.
"The basket (Cornucopia) of summer fruit served as tangible evidence of God's faithfulness to deliver them. Its existence stood firm proof that He was "able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think"
(Ephesians 3:20). Remember, God promised the patriarchs land (Genesis 12:7; 13:14-15; 15:18-21; 17:8). But what He actually gave His people was so special, so grand, that only "a land flowing with milk and honey" could properly describe it."
