God was so meticulous is outlining the boundaries for the Israelites. I was really blessed to see just how carefully God prepared a place for them. It shows me that God had a good and detailed plan for them. He thought deeply about what he wanted for the Israelites and he was faithful in fulfilling his promise to them. It also shows just how much he loved them to have such specific territories laid out. He made this promise because he loved them that much.
He has also made amazing promises to each of us and each of our students. This challenges me to be a better teacher, to show them how much God loves them and how much he has prepared for them, just like he prepared a way and a place for the Israelites. As I prepare Bible Study, I need to be mindful of their needs are and really seek out what God desires to do through me to meet those needs. It's not about how eloquent I can be, or how quickly I can whip up a lesson just to spit it out and send them off. It's about humbly taking part in revealing what God wants for their lives and helping them see a glimpse of how much God loves them. So, in order for me to be able to do that, I need God. My challenge is to pray over each student before I prepare Bible Study so that I can become a better mouthpiece.
