  35. 4 Questions to ask the Lord about the book a Why do you want your people to enter into the land of Canaan? - I keep my promises and want my people to enter into the blessing of them Deut 1:8 - I love my people and want them to experience the faithfulness of who I am. Deut 7:7,8 “It is a feature of the Old Testament’s portrayal of Yaweh that easily grates on the modern person because of the infectious pluralism that disapproves such exclusivity. But it is also, of course, fundamentally reassuring. The covenant relationship between God and God’s people really means something only if God is totally committed to it.” “A God who is not jealous for the reciprocal commitment of God’s people would be as contemptible as a husband who didn’t care whether or not his wife was faithful to him” Chris Wright

  38. Am I teachable? “A point is reached in soul-history when the people of God are prepared to review the past, and to take account of it under the instruction of Christ, of whom Moses is undoubtedly a type. We are not capable of taking a spiritual review of God’s ways with us, or of our own behaviour relative to those ways until we reach a position which answers to the “land of Moab.” C A Coates
