Victory through the Lord

Joshua 12- List of Defeated Kings
Whoa! Joshua and gang defeated 31 kings in total. This means 31 lands that God has given victory to them. Can you imagine the vastness of the land that is being given to them?

Joshua 13- Land still to be Taken
Haha God so funny. At the start He said to Joshua: "You are very old, but they are still many lands to be taken over." 31 pieces of land is not enough still.

This just reminds me of how God really fulfills His promise to Abraham that He will make him a Father of many nations. (Genesis 12) God showed Abraham the land. God used Joshua to lead the people into the land.

In this chapter, Joshua assigned the land to the Israelites (Which was actually assigned by Moses), except for the Levites cos their inheritance is the food offerings that is presented to God.

Joshua 14
Allotment for Caleb
Wa Joshua and Caleb very old already. Caleb (85 years old) asked for a place. He served God for 45 years. When he was sent out as a apy he was "only" 41 years old. God promised Caleb that He will bless him with a land as he has followed God wholeheartedly. So Joshua blessed Caleb with Hebron

Joshua 15- Allotment for Judah
Got boundary one. I suppose the boundaries are there to protect the people of Judah.

Caleb drove out the 3 Anakites. Then so random, he said he give the daughter Aksah in marriage to his brother Othniel.

Judah could not drive out the Jebusites. To this day, the Jebusites lived with the people of Judah.
