Joshua 12
Today's Scripture
Chapter 12 of Joshua lists all the kings that the Lord, using the army of Israel, defeated. Moses led the army east of the Jordan before he died, and gave the land to the Reubenites. Joshua led the people across the Jordan after Moses' death, and conquered the rest of the land. Thirty-one kings in all were defeated. The Israelites were given victory after victory, and as long as they sought the Lord they were rewarded with the spoils of the land.
God wants us to live victorious lives, too. The problem is that we want to seek our own way instead of his. It seems it takes a lifetime to learn that what he has in mind for us is for our benefit, and if we seek and trust him with everything, we too will defeat the enemy and enjoy what God has for us.
