In the section “Settlement: Seeing God,” what truth about God impressed you the most? Why?
-
His patience is so evident. Israel sinned over and over, yet God did not disown them, or cast them out.
-
God doesn’t need to rely on one man. I think so often we can see in the Western Christian world, churches and ministries that are reliant on a few or one individual. But God doesn’t call us to that, he shows very clearly in the story of Joshua how as one leader’s journey ends he is ready to raise up another to take on that mantle. It is an amazing leadership lesson, in that we should be looking to give away the ministry to others. If our ministry is reliant on us, then it is bound to failed because it has stepped outside of being reliant on the model God lays out for us and in turn blesses through multiplication when we follow.
-
Seeing God’s patience stuck me the most. That paired with his foreknowledge and providence. The fact that God knew all these mistakes and actions would happen by man he continues to move with us.
-
He keeps His promises.
Over and over in my life I found this to be true. A simple example is that He promise to be with us and I see it in my every day life -
GOd is patient with Sinners
God is make and keep his promises
