BRAGADAYJAH 231

So God having given instructions to His people, told them He would send an angel before them, to keep them in their way and to lead them unto the place He had promised them.
            They were cautioned to be aware of him and to obey him, and not to provoke him as he would not pardon their transgressions; for he represents the Almighty.
            On the other hand God told them, if they shall indeed heed the voice of the angel, and do all that they are commanded to do, then He God shall be an enemy unto their enemies, and sn adversary unto their adversaries.
            The angel, God told them further, shall go before them into the land of the Amorites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Canaanites, the Hivites and the Jebusites all of whom God would cut off.
            God’s people were not to bow down to nor serve the gods of those nations, nor do their works, but shall utterly destroy them when they come into their land.  They were to serve the Lord their God, as a result of which He shall bless them and provide them with their daily bread.
            Not only would the people be blessed and protected and provided for, their animals would be blessed also and they would give increase in their season. 
            With regard to the nations, God promised not to drive them out all at once, but would slowly drive them out.  Therefore His people were not to make any covenant with them
             “I will eventually drive them out,” said the Lord.  “And I will set your boundaries from the Red Ssea, even unto the sea of the Philistines and from the desert unto the river. I will not allow the people of other nations to dwell in the land with you lest you should follow them and serve their gods and sin against me.”  More
