Today's reading from Joshua 13-14
King James Version with Web Encyclopedia links: Joshua 13;Joshua 14

Joshua 13
The land was to be partitioned among the remaining 9 1/2 tribes who would live west of the Jordan River. However, there were land which still needed to be conquered (v.1-7). East Canaan was divided among the other half of Manasseh, Reubenites and the Gadires, east of the Jordan. There was no inheritance for the tribe of Levi, the Lord was their inheritance. Just as in our Christian lives, there are areas in our lives which are not under the control of the Holy Spirit, God promised that He Himself would drive them out of our lives. The Christian life is a lifetime process of santification in our lives, it takes discipline and hard work. Arthur Pink has more details about the division

Joshua 14
The land was divided aong the 9 1/2 tribes west of Canaan (1-5). For some unknown reason Caleb madee a request and was granted the land of Hebron (6-15). Caleb was one of the two spies who with Joshua were faithful to God in encouraging the people to go and possess the land. The people had rebelled, the whole generation died out except for Joshua and Caleb entered into Canaan. God remembered and He rewarded Caleb. We should remember that God will reward us for our faith and service but it may take time for God to fulfill His promises. In this case, it took God forty years.
