GOD'S PRESENCE WITH JOSHUA

joshua 1

God's Word is a source of guidance, strength and hope to His people.

Moses led the Israelites through the wilderness for forty years
because of the people's failure of faith in refusing to take the
promised land a generation earlier. Now a new generation had
arrived on the edge of the promised land, but Moses would no
longer lead them, for he too would die outside the land for his
own disobedience. So this next generation would need a new
leader, and God had raised up Joshua in the shadow of Moses
to fulfill this role. In the midst of a climate of disappointment,
failure, and death, God set the stage with Joshua to demonstrate
His faithful commitment to His people despite their sinfulness.

Points to consider:

   God gives direction and comfort through
     His presence.
     * What are some ways God reminds us
        that He is still at work in our lives,
        regardless of our circumstances?
     * What does the promise of God's presence
        mean for believers today?

✞   God gives strength and courage through
      His Word.
     * What are some future promises that help
        believers be strong and courageous today?

✞   God gives hope and victory through
      His promises.
     * Why did Israel have reason to have
      confidence in Joshua's instructions?
