What book of the bible is moses denied into the promise land in?
It's found in Deuteronomy 32."...the LORD told Moses, 'Go up into the Abarim Range to Mount Nebo in Moab, across from Jericho, and view Canaan, the land I am giving the Israelites as their own possession. There on the mountain that you have climbed you will die and be gathered to your people, just as your brother Aaron died on Mount Hor and was gathered to his people. This is because both of you broke faith with Me in the presence of the Israelites at the waters of Meribah Kadesh in the Desert of Zin and because you did not uphold My Holiness among the Israelites. Therefore, you will see the land only from a distance; you will not enter the land I am giving to the people of Israel.'" (Deut.32:48-52 NIV)

Why didn't Moses lead the Israelites across the river?
Deut:32:48-52 48: And the LORD spake unto Moses that selfsame day, saying 49: Get thee up into this mountain Abarim, unto mount Nebo, which is in the land of Moab, that is over against Jericho; and behold the land of Canaan, which I give unto the children of Israel for a possession: 50: And die in the mount whither thou goest up, and be gathered unto thy people; as Aaron thy brother died in mount Hor, and was gathered unto his people: 51: Because ye trespassed against me among the children of Israel at the waters of Meribah-Kadesh, in the wilderness of Zin; because ye sanctified me not in the midst of the children of Israel. 52: Yet thou shalt see the land before thee; but thou shalt not go thither unto the land which I give the children of Israel.
Where was the place Moses struck the rock twice because his faith was weak?
This was at Meribah (also known as Kadesh-barnea) and is South-West of the Dead Sea in the top corner of the Sinai peninsula:-Numbers 20:7-13 13 Then the LORD spoke to Moses:8 "Take the staff and assemble the community, you and Aaron your brother, and then speak to the rock before their eyes. It will pour forth its water, and you will bring water out of the rock for them, and so you will give the community and their beasts water to drink."9 So Moses took the staff from before the LORD, just as he commanded him.10 Then Moses and Aaron gathered the community together in front of the rock, and he said to them, "Listen, you rebels, must we bring water out of this rock for you?"11 Thenraised his hand, and Mosesstruck the rock twice with his staff. And water came out abundantly. So the community drank, and their beasts drank too. 12 Then the LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron, "Because you did not trust me enough to show me as holy before the Israelites, therefore you will not bring this community into the land I have given them."13 These are the waters of Meribah, because the Israelites contended with the LORD, and his holiness was maintained among them.
Why was it bad for Moses to hit the rock twice in the Bible?
Because God only told him to speak to the rock, in hitting it he disobeyed God thus causing him not to be able to enter the promised land.AnswerGod told Moses to speak to the rock. This was evidently intended to clearly identify the totally supernatural provision of the water, without any human agency, since some could say that Moses' striking caused the water to come out. He was also evidently angry when he did so, rather than trusting calmly in almighty God. Numbers 20:7-13 (King James Version)7And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,8Take the rod, and gather thou the assembly together, thou, and Aaron thy brother, and speak ye unto the rock before their eyes; and it shall give forth his water, and thou shalt bring forth to them water out of the rock: so thou shalt give the congregation and their beasts drink.9And Moses took the rod from before the LORD, as he commanded him.10And Moses and Aaron gathered the congregation together before the rock, and he said unto them, Hear now, ye rebels; must we fetch you water out of this rock?11And Moses lifted up his hand, and with his rod he smote the rock twice: and the water came out abundantly, and the congregation drank, and their beasts also.12And the LORD spake unto Moses and Aaron, Because ye believed me not, to sanctify me in the eyes of the children of Israel, therefore ye shall not bring this congregation into the land which I have given them.13This is the water of Meribah; because the children of Israel strove with the LORD, and he was sanctified in them.
Why were the israelites anoyed with Moses?
God told Moses to speak to a rock to bring water out of it, obviously conveying the idea that God was providing for His people. Moses instead got angry and struck the rock twice, thus indicating his unbelief that God could do this miracle. For this Moses was not permitted to enter Canaan. The account in its context is below.=== === 1Then came the children of Israel, even the whole congregation, into the desert of Zin in the first month: and the people abode in Kadesh; and Miriam died there, and was buried there. 2And there was no water for the congregation: and they gathered themselves together against Moses and against Aaron. 3And the people chode with Moses, and spake, saying, Would God that we had died when our brethren died before the LORD! 4And why have ye brought up the congregation of the LORD into this wilderness, that we and our cattle should die there? 5And wherefore have ye made us to come up out of Egypt, to bring us in unto this evil place? it is no place of seed, or of figs, or of vines, or of pomegranates; neither is there any water to drink. 6And Moses and Aaron went from the presence of the assembly unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, and they fell upon their faces: and the glory of the LORD appeared unto them. 7And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, 8Take the rod, and gather thou the assembly together, thou, and Aaron thy brother, and speak ye unto the rock before their eyes; and it shall give forth his water, and thou shalt bring forth to them water out of the rock: so thou shalt give the congregation and their beasts drink. 9And Moses took the rod from before the LORD, as he commanded him. 10And Moses and Aaron gathered the congregation together before the rock, and he said unto them, Hear now, ye rebels; must we fetch you water out of this rock? 11And Moses lifted up his hand, and with his rod he smote the rock twice: and the water came out abundantly, and the congregation drank, and their beasts also. 12And the LORD spake unto Moses and Aaron, Because ye believed me not, to sanctify me in the eyes of the children of Israel, therefore ye shall not bring this congregation into the land which I have given them. 13This is the water of Meribah; because the children of Israel strove with the LORD, and he was sanctified in them.
How do Moses parting words to Israel show that he humbly accepted the discipline from Jehovah?
The whole of Deuteronomy 33 is a record of Moses' last words to Israel. It is one of the most powerful speeches he made, and is particularly pointed in the light both of Moses' own immanent departure from the scene and in the wishes he has for the blessing of God upon his people. Moses shows no regret or displeasure at God for God's discipline upon him. He points to God as the one who will bless His people.The concluding verses, particularly 27 and 29 show His acknowledgment of the vital importance of God's blessing upon the nation of Israel:Deuteronomy 33 (King James Version)1And this is the blessing, wherewith Moses the man of God blessed the children of Israel before his death.2And he said, The LORD came from Sinai, and rose up from Seir unto them; he shined forth from mount Paran, and he came with ten thousands of saints: from his right hand went a fiery law for them.3Yea, he loved the people; all his saints are in thy hand: and they sat down at thy feet; every one shall receive of thy words.4Moses commanded us a law, even the inheritance of the congregation of Jacob.5And he was king in Jeshurun, when the heads of the people and the tribes of Israel were gathered together.6Let Reuben live, and not die; and let not his men be few.7And this is the blessing of Judah: and he said, Hear, LORD, the voice of Judah, and bring him unto his people: let his hands be sufficient for him; and be thou an help to him from his enemies.8And of Levi he said, Let thy Thummim and thy Urim be with thy holy one, whom thou didst prove at Massah, and with whom thou didst strive at the waters of Meribah;9Who said unto his father and to his mother, I have not seen him; neither did he acknowledge his brethren, nor knew his own children: for they have observed thy word, and kept thy covenant.10They shall teach Jacob thy judgments, and Israel thy law: they shall put incense before thee, and whole burnt sacrifice upon thine altar.11Bless, LORD, his substance, and accept the work of his hands; smite through the loins of them that rise against him, and of them that hate him, that they rise not again.12And of Benjamin he said, The beloved of the LORD shall dwell in safety by him; and the Lord shall cover him all the day long, and he shall dwell between his shoulders.13And of Joseph he said, Blessed of the LORD be his land, for the precious things of heaven, for the dew, and for the deep that coucheth beneath,14And for the precious fruits brought forth by the sun, and for the precious things put forth by the moon,15And for the chief things of the ancient mountains, and for the precious things of the lasting hills,16And for the precious things of the earth and fulness thereof, and for the good will of him that dwelt in the bush: let the blessing come upon the head of Joseph, and upon the top of the head of him that was separated from his brethren.17His glory is like the firstling of his bullock, and his horns are like the horns of unicorns: with them he shall push the people together to the ends of the earth: and they are the ten thousands of Ephraim, and they are the thousands of Manasseh.18And of Zebulun he said, Rejoice, Zebulun, in thy going out; and, Issachar, in thy tents.19They shall call the people unto the mountain; there they shall offer sacrifices of righteousness: for they shall suck of the abundance of the seas, and of treasures hid in the sand.20And of Gad he said, Blessed be he that enlargeth Gad: he dwelleth as a lion, and teareth the arm with the crown of the head.21And he provided the first part for himself, because there, in a portion of the lawgiver, was he seated; and he came with the heads of the people, he executed the justice of the LORD, and his judgments with Israel.22And of Dan he said, Dan is a lion's whelp: he shall leap from Bashan.23And of Naphtali he said, O Naphtali, satisfied with favour, and full with the blessing of the LORD: possess thou the west and the south.24And of Asher he said, Let Asher be blessed with children; let him be acceptable to his brethren, and let him dip his foot in oil.25Thy shoes shall be iron and brass; and as thy days, so shall thy strength be.26There is none like unto the God of Jeshurun, who rideth upon the heaven in thy help, and in his excellency on the sky.27The eternal God is thy refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms: and he shall thrust out the enemy from before thee; and shall say, Destroy them.28Israel then shall dwell in safety alone: the fountain of Jacob shall be upon a land of corn and wine; also his heavens shall drop down dew.29Happy art thou, O Israel: who is like unto thee, O people saved by the LORD, the shield of thy help, and who is the sword of thy excellency! and thine enemies shall be found liars unto thee; and thou shalt tread upon their high places.
Where can you find in the bible the scripture that reads when you think of the goodness of jesus and all he has done for you your soul crys out hallelujah?
Psalm 106Good News Translation (GNT)The Lord's Goodness to His People106 Praise the Lord!Give thanks to the Lord, because he is good;his love is eternal.2 Who can tell all the great things he has done?Who can praise him enough?3 Happy are those who obey his commands,who always do what is right.4 Remember me, Lord, when you help your people;include me when you save them.5 Let me see the prosperity of your peopleand share in the happiness of your nation,in the glad pride of those who belong to you.6 We have sinned as our ancestors did;we have been wicked and evil.7 Our ancestors in Egypt did not understand God's wonderful acts;they forgot the many times he showed them his love,and they rebelled against the Almighty[a] at the Red Sea.8 But he saved them, as he had promised,in order to show his great power.9 He gave a command to the Red Sea,and it dried up;he led his people across on dry land.10 He saved them from those who hated them;he rescued them from their enemies.11 But the water drowned their enemies;not one of them was left.12 Then his people believed his promisesand sang praises to him.13 But they quickly forgot what he had doneand acted without waiting for his advice.14 They were filled with craving in the desertand put God to the test;15 so he gave them what they asked for,but also sent a terrible disease among them.16 There in the desert they were jealous of Mosesand of Aaron, the Lord's holy servant.17 Then the earth opened up and swallowed Dathanand buried Abiram and his family;18 fire came down on their followersand burned up those wicked people.19 They made a gold bull-calf at Sinaiand worshiped that idol;20 they exchanged the glory of Godfor the image of an animal that eats grass.21 They forgot the God who had saved themby his mighty acts in Egypt.22 What wonderful things he did there!What amazing things at the Red Sea!23 When God said that he would destroy his people,his chosen servant, Moses, stood up against Godand kept his anger from destroying them.24 Then they rejected the pleasant land,because they did not believe God's promise.25 They stayed in their tents and grumbledand would not listen to the Lord.26 So he have them a solemn warningthat he would make them die in the desert27 and scatter their descendants among the heathen,letting them die in foreign countries.28 Then at Peor, God's people joined in the worship of Baaland ate sacrifices offered to dead gods.29 They stirred up the Lord's anger by their actions,and a terrible disease broke out among them.30 But Phinehas stood up and punished the guilty,and the plague was stopped.31 This has been remembered in his favor ever sinceand will be for all time to come.32 At the springs of Meribah the people made the Lord angry,and Moses was in trouble on their account.33 They made him so bitterthat he spoke without stopping to think.34 They did not kill the heathen,as the Lord had commanded them to do,35 but they intermarried with themand adopted their pagan ways.36 God's people worshiped idols,and this caused their destruction.37 They offered their own sons and daughtersas sacrifices to the idols of Canaan.38 They killed those innocent children,and the land was defiled by those murders.39 They made themselves impure by their actionsand were unfaithful to God.40 So the Lord was angry with his people;he was disgusted with them.41 He abandoned them to the power of the heathen,and their enemies ruled over them.42 They were oppressed by their enemiesand were in complete subjection to them.43 Many times the Lord rescued his people,but they chose to rebel against himand sank deeper into sin.44 Yet the Lord heard them when they cried out,and he took notice of their distress.45 For their sake he remembered his covenant,and because of his great love he relented.46 He made all their oppressorsfeel sorry for them.47 Save us, O Lord our God,and bring us back from among the nations,so that we may be thankfuland praise your holy name.48 Praise the Lord, the God of Israel;praise him now and forever!Let everyone say, "Amen!"Psalm 27New King James Version (NKJV)A Psalm of David.27 The Lord is my light and my salvation;Whom shall I fear?The Lord is the strength of my life;Of whom shall I be afraid?2 When the wicked came against meTo eat up my flesh,My enemies and foes,They stumbled and fell.3 Though an army may encamp against me,My heart shall not fear;Though war may rise against me,In this I will be confident.4 One thing I have desired of the Lord,That will I seek:That I may dwell in the house of the LordAll the days of my life,To behold the beauty of the Lord,And to inquire in His temple.5 For in the time of troubleHe shall hide me in His pavilion;In the secret place of His tabernacleHe shall hide me;He shall set me high upon a rock.6 And now my head shall be lifted up above my enemies all around me;Therefore I will offer sacrifices of joy in His tabernacle;I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to the Lord.7 Hear, O Lord, when I cry with my voice!Have mercy also upon me, and answer me.8 When You said, "Seek My face,"My heart said to You, "Your face, Lord, I will seek."9 Do not hide Your face from me;Do not turn Your servant away in anger;You have been my help;Do not leave me nor forsake me,O God of my salvation.10 When my father and my mother forsake me,Then the Lord will take care of me.11 Teach me Your way, O Lord,And lead me in a smooth path, because of my enemies.12 Do not deliver me to the will of my adversaries;For false witnesses have risen against me,And such as breathe out violence.13 I would have lost heart, unless I had believedThat I would see the goodness of the LordIn the land of the living.14 Wait on the Lord;Be of good courage,And He shall strengthen your heart;Wait, I say, on the Lord!
