That question is probably not answerable except to say that when God told
them to move, they did it. It could have been also done as the resources were
used up in each area, but mostly when God told them to move.
The Bible says that God provided their protection, their clothes and shoes
didn't wear out, a pillar of cloud denoted His presence by day and a pillar of
fire denoted it by night, He fed them with manna and meat as they needed it,
directed them to water or miraculously provided it for them etc. Other than
these things, no one but God probably knows how many times they moved -
from place to place unless it is in an ancient document somewhere preserved
by the Jews over many thousands of years. A rabbi may be able to answer this
also.
Addendum: Please read the 33rd chapter of the book of Numbers to get a
better grasp of the Israelites movements. I believe I counted approximately 42
times. The above answer is correct in mentioning that depletion of natural
resources, as well as strategic progressive and protective measures needed,
created a measure of necessity for God to move His people at different
junctures of their lives. Each move still required a corporate obedience,
comprised of individuals' respect for God and their building trust in His plans for
them. Even as a good shepherd plans grazing fields and durations of use in
advance, so that the sheep do not destroy shrubs below the root-line and
grow so comfortably fat that they are prone to down casting, so God mapped
out "grazing fields" for His people and kept them progressing, industrious, and
obedient for their own well being.
Jewish answer:
The Israelites moved camp exactly 42 times.
Jewish Answer #2:
The notion of the Israelites camping and living off of the resources until they
were depleted, and then moving on, is so absurd, and misses the whole point
so completely, that it almost borders on naive sacrilege. Anyone who has
visited the Sinai desert, as I have, is thunderstruck by a new understanding
of the 40 years that followed the Exodus from Egypt.
The whole point is: There ARE no resources there . . . No water, no topsoil,
no vegetation, no shade, no building materials, nothing edible. When we read
the account of the 40 years that followed the Exodus, we're in danger of
missing what may have been the greatest miracle of all, simply because it
permeates every moment of the Torah from early in the Book of Exodus
(mid-parshat Bo) until the end. We miss it because there is no break in the
constant environment, and no contrast with any other.
Simply put, there is nothing in that place on which an individual can survive,
and yet the nation of Israel flourished in their millions, thriving for decades,
in a place hostile to life, thanks to continuous Divine intervention.
In the Roman Catholic Church, someone can receive holy orders once, becoming a deacon, priest, or bishop. Each ordination is considered sacramentally valid and permanent. However, in some other Christian denominations, individuals may be ordained multiple times if they serve in different roles or move between denominations with differing views on ordination.

In the Bible Moses who was called by God to lead the people, was a good man and he followed the word of God. But he did make a major mistake . And it was God told Moses to speak to the rock in the desert, as the people were crying out for water in the heat. But Moses stroked the rock and water gushed out. So as a punishment Moses was not allowed to put his foot in the promised land.
