What does Deuteronomy 3:5 mean? →

Passage Context

3So the LORD our God delivered into our hands Og also, the king of Bashan, and all his people: and we smote him until none was left to him remaining.
4And we took all his cities at that time, there was not a city which we took not from them, threescore cities, all the region of Argob, the kingdom of Og in Bashan.
5All these cities were fenced with high walls, gates, and bars; beside unwalled towns a great many.
6And we utterly destroyed them, as we did unto Sihon king of Heshbon, utterly destroying the men, women, and children, of every city.
7But all the cattle, and the spoil of the cities, we took for a prey to ourselves.

Devotional Reflection

GratitudeHopeCompassionAwe

Moses led the Israelites out of Egypt and through the desert, but because of his sin, he was not allowed to enter the Promised Land. Still, Moses took care of and trained the person who would do what he couldn't do. Joshua was that person. Who are you teaching, shaping, motivating, and calling to do the things you can't do? Who will go further with your dreams than you can? Who is Joshua to you?

Prayer

God, You are holy and righteous. Please show me the people You want me to share my life with and pass on Your faith to. Please let me see them by opening my eyes. Give me the strength to be honest and brave in front of them. In Jesus' precious name, I pray. Amen.
