SCRIPTURE: Joshua 23:9 The LORD has driven out before you great and powerful nations; to this day no one has been able to withstand you. 10 One of you routs a thousand, because the LORD your God fights for you, just as he promised. 11 So be very careful to love the LORD your God.
OBSERVATION: Joshua was giving Israel his farewell message. He had led them in their conquest of the land that God had promised them. He encourages them by recounting what God has done and he warns them of the dangers of breaking God’s laws.
It was not their power, but their God who made them victorious over their enemies. It was not their numbers, but their God that sent the enemy running.
Joshua would be leaving them, but God would always be there. There would be a change in leaders, but not in their God!
APPLICATION: My God’s presence is more powerful than my problems. His presence changes the odds to my favor!
There will be changes in key people in my life, but never in my GOD. Loving God and pleasing God must always be my first priority.
PRAYER: Mighty God, You are my God! Nothing is impossible with you! With you all things are possible! You are not tired or worn out. I count on you to work all things together for my good. Amen
