Jos 18:8 | MHM | STEP | v. 8-9 : The surveyors went out and described the land, dividing it into seven parts. They brought their report back to Joshua at Shiloh. Even though there were still many Canaanites in the land, the surveyors trusted God to protect them as they did their duty ( v. 8, 9 ). General Note : Joshua’s plan made sure the land was divided fairly and that everyone trusted God’s decision. This is a reminder that God gives us blessings, but we must take action to receive them. Like the Israelites, we should not be lazy or afraid, but trust God and do our part (Ecclesiastes 11:4; John 17:2,3 ).
