Numbers 32-33: Settling for Less Than God’s Best

 

In this episode, we cover Numbers 32 and 33. In the last 5 chapters of Numbers, Moses is going to focus on the division of the land. These chapters are important to read because they lay the foundation that provide for understanding Israel’s frustrating future in the Promised Land.

HAYLEY’S BIBLE BENDER:

My takeaways were the notes Susan’s highlighted. When discussing Moses conceding, she noted that “there are always consequences when you step out of God’s will. People with a strong faith don’t settle for what they see, they wait for what is better.” Susan goes on to ask, “Are you prone to stepping out of God’s will to get or do what you want? Or have you mastered waiting for what is better–God’s will?” 

I think these questions are important to ask when making large decisions but also in everyday life too.

What was your Bible bender from Numbers 32 and 33? Did you learn anything new?
