I am using the daily Bible reading schedule from “The Bible.net” for my daily Bible reading.

Today, I am reading and commenting on Joshua 18-20.

So, at this point, the tribes of Reuben and Gad, and half of the tribe of Manasseh, had settled east of the Jordan River.  The tribes of Judah and Ephraim, and the other half of Manasseh, had settled land west of the Jordan.  The other tribes were still living as nomads.  They had not yet claimed their territory in the Promised Land.  Many of us behave in the same manner.  We know the promises God has made to us, but we fail to take the actions necessary to claim those blessings, whether from fear, laziness, or some other reason.  We need to claim God’s blessings by doing as He directs us.
