Deuteronomy 34

"So Moses the servant of the Lord died there in the land of Moab, according to the word of the Lord.  And He buried him in a valley in the land of Moab, opposite Beth Peor; but no one knows his grave to this day." vv.5-6

Read chapter 34
Our beloved Moses now dies.  It's been such an adventure and growing experience as we've walked through the wilderness with them in scripture.  Moses was 120 years old when he died, not because he was too old and in a hospice type state for he probably just as strong as he was when they first set out from Egypt forty years prior (v.7).  He wasn't allowed by God to enter the Promised Land but God let him see it; he was probably about six miles from the boarder.  Verse five says he "died according to the word of the Lord," oh that be the goal of every believer to finish their race set before us.  Moses died in peace and honor and what a great honor to be buried by God.  God created Him out of the dust of the earth and now was digging up the earth to bury him in return.  Moses was not like Enoch or Eijah that didn't see death and were taken straight up to heaven, Moses died and was buried as it plainly says here.  We do know he will be raised in the resurrection as we read in Matthew 17 of the transfiguration with Elijah and Moses,  Perhaps his hidden grave was a good thing so that no one would try to worship him or some kind of superstitious use of his grave as the Israelites were prone to such things.
When a righteous man dies how can you carry on God's ministry to not let it just end in the next generation?  As you get older, can you say your endurance for God is just as strong if not stronger when you first began your walk with the Lord?
