Joshua 21 – God Fulfills Every Promise
Read Joshua 21:43-45
Today’s Truth
Joshua 21 marks the culmination of God’s promises to His people. The land was divided, the Levites were given cities, and Israel was finally at rest. Most importantly, the chapter closes with a powerful declaration: “Not one of the Lord’s promises failed.”
This passage is a reminder that God is faithful. He keeps His word, no matter how long it takes or how challenging the journey may seem. For the Israelites, this was a moment to pause and reflect on all that God had done, from bringing them out of Egypt to settling them in the Promised Land. In the same way, we are called to look back on God’s faithfulness in our lives and trust Him with our future.
