The Israelites waged war against the Midianites 
and claimed their land and  the land of Canaan.

were given the land of Sihon, king of the Amorites
and the kingdom of Og, king of Bashan.

The land of Canaan was divided  by lot among the Israelite clans

Dear God, please give peace to the people of the Middle East

Praise the Lord from the heavens,
praise him in the heights.

Praise him all his angels,
praise him all his spirits.

Praise him, sun and moon,
praise him, shining stars.

Let them praise the name of the Lord.
His word gave life to all of them.

Praise the Lord from the earth,
sea creatures and all oceans.

Praise him fire and hail, snow and mist,
stormy winds that obey his word.

Praise him all mountains and hills,
all fruit trees and cedars.

Praise him all animals, wild and tame,
reptiles and birds in the air.

Praise him all earth's kings and peoples,
earth's princes and rulers.

Praise him young men and maidens,
old people together with children.

Let them praise the name of the Lord.
He is the praise of all who love him.

Lord our God and Creator, you are worthy of all praise

Some religious leaders asked Jesus
"Why do your disciples ignore many external practices of our religion?"

Jesus answered, with the words of the prophet Isaiah:
"This people honors me with external lip-service,
while their hearts are far from me."

Jesus also said
"It's not certain foods or lack of washing  that makes a person unclean.
It's evil in the  heart that makes a person unclean.

Evil intentions like murder, adultery, fornication, theft, perjury, slander.
These are the things that make a person unclean."

Jesus, please  clean my heart
