Context — The Defeat of Og

32After Moses had sent spies to Jazer, Israel captured its villages and drove out the Amorites who were there. 33Then they turned and went up the road to Bashan, and Og king of Bashan and his whole army came out to meet them in battle at Edrei.

34But the LORD said to Moses, “Do not fear him, for I have delivered him into your hand, along with all his people and his land. Do to him as you did to Sihon king of the Amorites, who lived in Heshbon.”

35So they struck down Og, along with his sons and his whole army, until no remnant was left. And they took possession of his land.

Numbers 21:34 Summary

In Numbers 21:34, the Lord tells Moses to not be afraid of Og, the king of Bashan, because He has given Og into Moses' hand. This means that God is in control and will help us overcome any challenge we face, just as He helped the Israelites defeat Sihon, the king of the Amorites (Numbers 21:34). We can trust in God's power and provision, just as Moses did, and remember that God is always with us, as promised in Deuteronomy 31:8. By trusting in God, we can face our fears and challenges with confidence, knowing that He will help us overcome them, as seen in Isaiah 41:10.
