We seem to be bombarded these days with news of wars and conflict around the world. I happened upon this commentary in my Daily Walk Bible this week (NLT):
"The book of Joshua is a tale of war and peace. In the first twelve chapters, the people of Israel conquer the land of Canaan. Through three military campaigns involving more than thirty enemy armies, they learn a valuable lesson under Joshua's capable leadership: Victory comes through faith in God and obedience to His WORD rather than by military might or numerical superiority. "
In chapter one of Joshua, God is providing Joshua with the assurance he needs to face the towering giants and strongholds in Canaan. What is one situation in your life today in which you too can draw courage from the promises in the book of Joshua?
Be strong and courageous my friends!
