Joshua

Courage Obeys

By | Eyesalve

Whosoever he be that doth rebel against thy commandment, and will not hearken unto thy words in all that thou commandest him, he shall be put to death: only be strong and of a good courage.” Joshua 1:18

 

This is the fourth time in chapter one of Joshua that the command is given to be strong and of good courage. Notice this is a command from God. A person may think, how can you command someone to be courageous if they have fear? Can you just command the fear away? No you can’t, but if you are willing to just obey what God tells you to do, you will be acting in courage. If you are going to fear anything, fear the consequences of not obeying God.

Generation To Come

Now after the death of Moses the servant of the LORD it came to pass, that the LORD spake unto Joshua the son of Nun, Moses’ minister, saying,” Joshua 1:1

 

Thank God there was another man who God called to lead and who God would talk to in the generation that followed after Moses. We have had men in decades past who have led Christ’s church and have had the Lord talk to them. Thank God we have such men today in our generation. I have a question for the young saints. Will there be such men in the next generation to come?
