26.14: Jesus in Numbers Finale: All the Promised Land is a Sacred Place

It’s been a long and winding road for the Israelites to wander 40 years  in the wilderness. Finally, they are across the Jordan River from the  Promised Land. However, God has a little housekeeping — sanctification —  to do first. The Promised Land is a sacred land. God wants only  righteous people living there. The current inhabitants, in God’s eyes,  are idol worshipers,  evil, wicked people. The Israelites must go in and conquer them and  take over the land. That takes the men of fighting age that we counted in the last lesson — all of them. What happens when a couple of tribes prefer the land on  the east side of the Jordan? Can they compromise with God? Should anyone  try to compromise with God? Let’s dig in….. Keep reading in my blog where there are links to dig deeper and check out the maps…. It’s time to GET RIGHT WITH GOD! Jesus didn’t suffer torture and die so we could have religion! He died so He could have a Relationship with YOU! If you want to reap all the benefits of salvation including the 1-way, non-stop ticket to Heaven then… Believe. Repent. Be Baptized. Receive the Holy Spirit. Pray this prayer humbly and wholeheartedly… “Dear Lord Jesus, I know I am a sinner. I believe You died for my sins. Please forgive me. Right now, I turn from my sins and open the door of my heart and my life to you. I confess You as my personal Lord and Savior. I surrender my whole life to you and I will follow you for the rest of my life. Thank You, Jesus, for saving me. In Jesus' name, Amen.” Or visit: https://giselleaguiar.com/how-to-invite-jesus-into-your-heart/ This is a daily podcast, published each evening. Hit the subscribe button so can get to know God.
