Strength & Courage


Joshua 1: 7
Only be strong and very courageous, that you may observe to do according to all the law……………
 
I’ve been studying the Word of God in Joshua as of late.
Moses has just died, and God put Joshua in charge, to lead the people into the Promised Land.
 
Not only did God charge Joshua to be strong and very courageous, but he also wanted him to be observant of the law—all the law!
I don’t know about you, but sometimes it’s easier to be strong, courageous and observant, when friends aren’t dying, ya know?
 
The people Joshua was leading, had been on a 40 year journey.
Maybe there was reason for him to be strong and very courageous?
 
How is your journey of faith going? Do You feel stuck in the middle of nowhere?
Do you need strength? How about courage?
 
Maybe we really do need to go to the One, who is able to do exceedingly and abundantly, all that we ask or think.
Maybe that’s where our strength and courage come from in the first place…………….
