The children of Israel allowed themselves to be duped out of part of their inheritance because they were taken in by some deceiving "ambassadors" who lied to them and tricked them into making a covenant with them – despite the Lord's command to destroy all the wicked Canaanites.
It is strange to think that the Israelites got into this mess because they repeated a failure that they had just recently made in the matter of their attack upon Ai – they did not pray to the Lord and seek His guidance before making their plans and decisions.
The Christian life must be a life of prayer. A prayerless Christian misses out on so much blessedness. Without prayer and the reading of the Word, true communication does not exist between the Lord and our souls.
As a part of the Body of Christ, we ought to be lifting one another up in prayer – following the example of our Lord Jesus Himself, Who is repeatedly depicted in the Gospels as spending much time praying for His people!
