 Background Study from TOPIC: Part 2

 When God appears to be in waiting  mode whilst we are running out of Patience😓😨😰😣!!

Let's give some background to our study today, taken from our previous reflections. About why sometimes God's ways may not appear to make sense!

Last week, I explored the very essential subject of God's perspective on our life experiences including why He makes us wait! I have received some feedback that the insights shared were generally helpful. So I hope this background provides further elaboration to anyone who identifies with being in an extended Season of w-a-i-t-i-n-g.

As in a previous reflection, the subject of study was about the Hebrew immigrants, who had been delivered from slavery in EgyptLink to Exodus 14:26-31. They subsequently went on a long journey through the Sinai desert under the previous leadership of Moses. where the generation of their fathers died in the wilderness after 40 years of wandering That generation of fathers failed to possess their inheritance. Numbers 14:20-38 TLVThere are certainly lessons to be learned from their experience. Click for the story in Numbers 13:1-33 Hopefully, that will become a subject of another study! 

On this occasion, however, my focus is on the current generation who were talked about in the book of Joshua: We can call this generation of the children the Joshua generation! Our exploratory inquiry is about why God permitted them to wait for an extended period prior to experienceing their breakthrough. During this waiting period, they weren't passive but actively encircling the walls of Jericho for seven days. Why Seven days and not one or two or three or even less?

Please note I shall use the words Hebrews and Israelites interchangeably in reference to the Joshua Generation.

Scripture from the first Six chapters of the book of Joshua provides us with ample evidence about the Creator designer nature of Adonai, God of the Israelites. He is indeed our living God. the creator of all things.I also highlighted that our season of waiting provides us with an opportunity to get to know our Adonai and form a closer relationship with Him
