God is a God who covenants with HIs people and is faithful to keep His promise.
In Numbers 21, a vow is made by Israel with God " 'If Thou dost certainly give this people into my hand then I have devoted their cities.' and Jehovah hearkeneth to the voice of Israel and giveth up the Canaanite (Numbers 21 v 2, 3)
The Bible is not a history book or a sociology book or an economics book. Nor is it a book written by various different men as some suppose, but it is a book written by the Holy Spirit of God at the hand of these writers who were in fact prophets, communicating what God had spoken to them.
It is not possible to understand the Bible without the Holy Spirit for who has known the mind of God but the Spirit of God. I Cor 2:11
Jesus tells us that the Scriptures are written by the Holy Spirit.
"And Jesus answering said, teaching in the temple, 'How say the scribes that the Christ is son of David? for David himself said in the Holy Spirit, Sit thou on My right hand, till I place thine enemies - thy footstool: therefore David himself saith of him Lord and whence is he his son?" (Mark 12: 36)
Paul says: -"We do give thanks to God continually, that, having received the word of hearing from us of God, ye accepted, not the word of man, but as it is truly, the word of God, who also doth work in you who believe. 1 Thessalonians 2:13
Jesus said to the Sadducees, when they were mockingly asking Him about the resurrection, "Are you not therefore mistaken because you do not know the Scriptures nor the power of God?" Mark 12:24
"Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind." Romans 12:2
This is the covenant I will make with the house of Israel, after those days, saith the Lord, giving My laws into their mind, and upon their hearts I will write them, and I will be to them for a God and they shall be to Me for a people. Hebrews 8:10
If we understand the destruction of Canaan in the Old Testament in the Spirit, we must see that we cannot make an alliance with the world and also follow God. We cannot leave part of our old life intact and follow Jesus. We must give it all up, discard it utterly, destroy it completely and become a new creation in Jesus.
"so that if any one is in Christ - he is a new creature: the old things did pass away, lo, become new have the all things." 2 Cor 5:17
