The History of the Israelites

November 05, 2023

Passage: Deuteronomy 1:1-2:7

God’s people, the Israelites, had traveled for a very long
time—40 years—to get to the land God promised would be the Israelites’ home. It was time for Moses to remind the people how God had cared for them along the way.
The people gathered in the wilderness across from the Jordan River. Moses began talking to the people.
“God told us to leave the mountain and go to the land of the Canaanites. God said to enter the land and take it as our own,” Moses said. “Our people began having children and more children. We needed leaders who would be wise and respected. When the leaders were chosen, I helped them know what to do and say,” continued Moses.
Next, Moses reminded the Israelites about times when the people were afraid to do what God directed. Moses said, “I told you God would fight for you. God even gave you a cloud and fire to lead you. But you did not trust God. This made God angry.” Moses told the people about other times on the long journey when the people did not listen to God.
God had cared for His people all the way. God blessed the people’s works and watched over the people while they wandered in the wilderness.
“The Lord your God has been with you these past 40 years, and you have lacked nothing!” Moses declared to the Israelites.
