Today: [Joshua Chapter Thirteen]: Dividing the Inheritance. In this chapter Joshua is instructed by God to divide the lands that are yet unconquered. This set a vision before the people that was yet to be realized and would require effort on their part. God promises to drive out the inhabitants but it remains to the people to go forward in warfare to possess it. We usually perceive God’s purposes as some static plan that will deposit us at a place of rest. But God’s purposes are about dynamic process. He works from an unlimited timeline and wants us to think outside the boundaries of our own limitations to understand what He is doing in our lives.
