Thank God for Your Presence
Moses has died, and Joshua is
appointed by God to take the reins
of leadership. The people are
poised within view of the land
promised to their ancestors and
denied their unbelieving parents.
The time has come to cross over,
conquer and possess! But will
they succeed where their fathers
failed? The task seems impossible:
a turbulent river and walled cities
to conquer. So God begins to
prepare His people for the days
of warfare just ahead. He reminds
Joshua that careful attention to
His Word brings blessing & success
Lord, Thanks that I’m Never Alone:
I will be with you. I will not
leave you nor forsake you…
Have I not commanded you?
Be strong and of good courage;
do not be afraid; do not be
discouraged; for the Lord your
God will be with you wherever
you go. (Josh 1:5-9). Amen.
Father God, I will be strong and
courageous, I shall not be afraid
for the LORD my God is the
one who goes with me. He will
not fail me or forsake me. And
since You promised that It is the
Lord who goes before me. He will
be with me and will not leave me.
Therefore, I will not fear. Amen.
Lord, When I am afraid,
I will put my trust in You.
I sought the LORD, and He
answered me, and delivered
me from all my fears. Even
though I walk thro the valley
of the shadow of death, I fear
no evil, for U are with me. Amen.
Lord, You have not given me
a spirit of fear, but of power.
So I shall confidently say:
The Lord is my helper; I’ll not fear.
And now may the Lord of peace
Himself continually grant me
peace in every circumstance.
The Lord be with me. Amen.
