The book of Joshua picks up following the death of Moses and describes the fulfillment of the LORD's promise to Abraham as He delivers the land of Canaan into the hands of Joshua and the nation of Israel. Our summary verse is Joshua 1:9: "Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go" (ESV). The LORD is strong and mighty and keeps His promises. We need not fear with Him at our side.

Deuteronomy is a review of God's work in the lives of the Children of Israel and was preparing them for the dangers that would be in front of them as they entered the promised land. Our verse is Deuteronomy 6:5: "You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength” (NKJV). Moses directs the people to the importance of following the LORD, and to trust in the promise of the coming Savior, who would be like Moses, but greater than Moses. Don't forget what the LORD has done and has promised to do for you!

The book of Numbers records the account of the Children of Israel and the 40 years they spent in the wilderness. Our summary verse is Numbers 23:19: “God is not a man, that He should lie, Nor a son of man, that He should repent. Has He said, and will He not do? Or has He spoken, and will He not make it good?” (NKJV). This book reminds us of the faithfulness of God as He provided for, led and protected His people during all these years even though they were not faithful.

Our verse is Leviticus 19:8: "You shall not take vengeance, nor bear any grudge against the children of your people, but you shall love your neighbor as yourself: I am the LORD” (NKJV). God's Law is good, because it reveals His will and what is good for us and all society. But only Jesus has kept it perfectly and He has done that our our substitute.
