GOD KEEPS HIS PROMISES

JOSHUA 11:16-23

 

Key Concept:

God fights for His people  is faithful in keeping His promises.

The next few chapters of Joshua describe the various battles that the Israelites fought as they took over the land of Canaan. Despite Achan's sin in Joshua 7, the Lord forgave the people and continued to go with them as He had promised Joshua. Joshua 10:42 says, "Joshua captured all these kings and their land in one campaign, because the LORD, the God of Israel, fought for Israel." The Lord led Israel in battle, and now the time came for them to divide the land among the tribes.

As you examine Joshua 11:16-23:

✞   Consider that God fulfilled His promise to drive out His enemies through Joshua's 

    faithful obedience.

     

✞   Recognize that the Israelites received the land as an inheritance as God had promised 

    Abraham.
