Joshua 21:20-45
The rest of the Kohathite clans of the Levites were allotted towns from the tribe of Ephraim.
The total number of towns of the Gershonite clans came to thirteen, together with their pasturelands.
The Merarite clans (the rest of the Levites) were given:
The total number of towns allotted to the Merarite clans, who were the rest of the Levites, came to twelve.
The towns of the Levites in the territory held by the Israelites were forty-eight in all, together with their pasturelands. Each of these towns had pasturelands surrounding it; this was true for all these towns.
So the Lord gave Israel all the land he had sworn to give their ancestors, and they took possession of it and settled there. The Lord gave them rest on every side, just as he had sworn to their ancestors. Not one of their enemies withstood them; the Lord gave all their enemies into their hands. Not one of all the Lord’s good promises to Israel failed; everyone was fulfilled.
Why?
God's word is the truth and fulfilled to his people.
Not one of their enemies withstood them. When they obey the word of the Lord, it is true, when they turn away from the Lord, God's love turns to the warning and gives them the training and testament.
God's promise never failed. Keep the promise of the Lord and follow Jesus Christ will come true.

利未人分三個支派。哥轄又分祭司家族的亞倫支派及哥轄家族。等於4個支派。
原來各支派得到的土地，都要交出這些城給利未，有奉獻的含義，因為他們得到的土地也是白白得來的，所以也交出去。有利未人的產業就是神，所以有利未人的地方就有神的祝福、神的公義、作為、榮耀。透過利未人彰顯神的公義、榮耀。利未人他們領受神的恩典，也要去對外彰顯神的榮耀。
四面平安，不是的沒有敵人，但是沒有任何敵人能夠站立在他們面前。在神面前，敵人若有似無。因為在神面前敵人沒有任何作為。好像清朝末年，歐美國家在中國土地上分地盤，土地上依然住著中國人。
我們已經因耶穌基督已經得勝，已經得著，但是敵人依然在，神也就容許他們存在。這卻也是我們最軟弱面對的地方。

How?
My God is great, my God is love, knowing the Lord is the best blessing in my life.
