OUR FATHER WHO EXPECTS US TO OCCUPY WHAT HAS BEEN ASSIGNED TO US

Joshua chapter 19 verse 3 lists 3  towns as part of the overall  list of 17 towns that were encompassed by the land that was allotted to the tribe of Simeon.

Hazar Shual, Balah, Ezem,

The land allotted to Simeon was entirely within the area allotted to Judah.

The inheritance of the tribe of Simeon was etched out of the inheritance of Judah because Judah could not fully occupy the land they had been given and these three town along with the 14 other towns and their surrounding villages were towns that belonged to the tribe of Judah  but now fell to Simeon.

We must always strive to occupy the territory alloted to us so that it is not inherited by others who are more willing to utilize the area than  we are.

Amen.
