Fate Finale
“When they had made an end of dividing the land as an inheritance according to their borders, the children of Israel gave an inheritance among them to Joshua the son of Nun. According to the word of the Lord they gave him the city which he asked for, Timnath Serah in the mountains of Ephraim; and he built the city and dwelt in it.” Joshua 19:49-50 NKJV
One of the deceits of the Devil is the promotion of bad fate for obedient children of God. Most of those who buy this deceit are easily enticed by the flash of worldly prosperity, fraternity-clad promotion, and political power, at the expense of absolute submission to the Will of God and obedience to His words. Unfortunately, these worldly achievements are always temporary, since they were promised and provided by the changing words of limited men. Whereas, like Caleb, Joshua the son of Nun wholly followed the Lord; and he got rewarded with his inheritance at the end of dividing the land of promise to the children of Israel. It implies that mountains may quake and the seas roar, the words of the Lord remain unchanging. Also, only those whose trust and confidence in the fate finale of all His promises will wait to receive their rewards.
