Joshua 1:9 Be strong and courageous. Don't be fearful or discouraged because the Lord your God is with you wherever y ou go.

\n

Who is sufficient for these things? Who is qualified? 2 Cor inthians 2:16

\n

God gives power to the faint and gives might to thos e without strength. He perfects His strength in weakness. (2 Corinthians 1 2:9)

\n

Three sources of Joshua's strength as a leader of God's peopl e:

\n

Faith Luke 16:10 Whoever is faithful with very little is also f aithful with a lot.  God's will for our life never comes through the big things but through the little things. If I can meet the slightest responsi bility and dignify the smallest duty with the most response of my mind\, h eart\, and personality\, one day\, God will relieve me of the little thing s and give me a big thing to do. Don't let past failures keep you from get ting back on your feet and moving forward in God's will. Don't be fearful or discouraged.
\nA distinct Call Joshua 1:5-6 No one will be victori ous against you for the rest of your life. I'll be with you just like I wa s with Moses - I'll neither fail you nor abandon you. One who is assured o f the call of God is invincible. A sure calling from God makes a way acros s rivers and mountains if you go forward with the Lord Jesus Christ. Jesus said\, \"I come not to do my own will\, but the will of Him that sent me. \" (John 6:38)
\nIndwelling of the Word of God Joshua 1:8 This set of instructions is not to cease being a part of your conversations. Meditate on it day and night\, so that you may be careful to carry out everything written in it\, for then you'll prosper and succeed. Through the Spirit of God\, the Word of God brings fullness to your life and heart. It brings p ower and strength by His indwelling Spirit. There is no shortcut to holine ss. If I want to be the least bit holy\, I must pray to God and meditate o n His Word. Jesus' power came from saturating Himself in the Word of God. \"It is written...\" (Matthew 4:1-11)

\n

John 6:63: The Spirit gives life\; the flesh accomplishes nothing. The words that I have spoken to you are Spirit and Life. To be immersed in the Word of God is to be assured o f the presence of God. Then\, no weapon formed against us shall prosper.\n

Isaiah 41:10 Don't be afraid because I am with you\; don't be anxio us because I am your God. I keep on strengthening you\; I'm truly helping you. I'm surely upholding you with my victorious right hand.

\n

Who i s sufficient for these things? Who is qualified? One who is faithful calle d\, and filled with the Word of God. I will take all my weaknesses\, anxie ties\, and fears before Him. I will submit to the indwelling power of His blessed Spirit. I will ask for the qualities revealed in Jesus the Messiah to be imparted to me so that they may be real in my life. I will be silen t with an open Bible and wait for God to speak. I desire to express heaven ly light that the river of God would flow through me as a great blessing t o others.
