One of the greatest testimonials to God's love is His provision of His Word.

Moses warned them [Israelites] that the leading spiritual danger they would face on entering the [promise] land would be forgetting the Lord. What adversity would not do, prosperity and satisfaction could. They were to be on their guard against spiritual lethargy.

God is enough like us to understand our problems and enough above us to be able to solve them.

God never forgets a promise.

God's loving discipline brings us face-to-face with our pride.

Individual believers are not to usurp the role of civil government and judge people who are offensive.

Although their parents died in the wilderness for their stubbornness, Israel could profit from the older generation's failure by remembering that God had used adversity to train them.
