THE LIFE OF JOSHUA – LESSON 12 OF 12

CONCLUSION

Joshua Chapter 11 tells how he waged war victoriously over much of Canaan. From Jericho to his last battle was a period of seven years. He defeated many kings who each ruled over a city with it surrounding villages.

He also destroyed most of the Anakim, the giants. He cut off the giants from Hebron, Debir, the mountains of Judah, and the mountains throughout Canaan, except for three places. The Anakim remained in Gath, Gaza, and Ashdod. It was over 400 years later that King David finally got rid of the giants where Goliath and his relatives lived.

There were also pockets of pagans unconquered in various parts of Canaan. After Joshua died at age 110, the Book of Judges tells how the tribes of Judah and Simeon had to continue fighting them. Joshua had left the conquest of Canaan incomplete. This failure, from the careless league with Gibeon to the unconquered tribes, became a huge stumbling block to Israel for centuries to come.

Yes, Joshua’s heart was unto God. He loved the LORD. He was blessed by God with military victories for seven long years. But his men had grown battle weary and longed to get back to their families and to the inheritance of land that Joshua had given them. Joshua sent them home and retired from war.

Was that a failure? He did not complete the charge given to him by Moses who had received it from God. Christians always speak high praises about Joshua. How much better would things have been if he had completed the task?

What about you? What has God asked of you? Whatever it is, please be sure to do it to the fullest degree. God rewards obedience.

If you are unsure of what He asks of you, read the gospel account of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. That will tell you what you are to do or how you are to be if you’ve had no other specific leading.

Don’t be a Joshua by failing to live out what God has asked of you through to the end. Joshua was a godly and righteous man, but he didn’t see it through to the end.

THE INHERITANCE

There is a story told and many say it was true about a wealthy man. He loved God with all his heart and wanted his son to know the Lord like he did. No matter what he said to him the young man wanted nothing to do with God. One day the man died, and it came time to read his will. In the will the son was given just his father’s bible and nothing else. He was furious. He had expected to receive an inheritance along with a generous sum of money.

In his anger he took what money he had and blew it on alcohol and found himself homeless. He wandered for several years with nothing more than a backpack. In the backpack was the bible that his father had left him, but he never opened it. His anger grew and he found himself living under a bridge. 

One day, cold, lonely, and without hope he opened his backpack and there was the bible. He took it out and decided to open it up and read it since all else had failed him. As he turned the pages inside the bible, he found between every page a hundred-dollar bill. 

All the time that he had squandered all he had, the inheritance was hidden in the bible. Along with the money was a note from his father which told him how much he loved him and that he wanted him to have his inheritance. But beyond that, the father told him that the true treasure of life was on the pages surrounding the money. He said he hoped that he would find the value of the words rather than the value of the money.

Now whether this is true or not, it has a message. The greatest inheritance one can find is on the pages of the bible. We learn on those pages about a God that loved us so much that he gave all he had by letting his son die for our sin. We learn that that son rose from the dead and that his words written in the bible for us give us hope.

You may not live under a bridge in a hopeless situation, but I can assure you that the riches that can be found in the bible far surpass any money you can find. The greatest inheritance you can receive is from reading Genesis to Revelation, but you have to open the book to find these riches.

Don’t be like that foolish son angry with “father.” Find out what our heavenly Father wants you to know and have by reading his will. It is found in the bible.
