We are asking God to fulfill hHis promises in our lives, yet we give up, quit, get discouraged, and fail to trust Him. Understand Joshuas conversation with God when He was about to take him into the promised land. He told him to arise (get up). He told him He was with him and that He would not fail him. He told him to be strong and if a good courage. He came back again and told him again ... be strong, courageous, and obedient. He him to speak the word, meditate on the word, and again to obey the word. He reiterated in the conversation at the end again for Joshua to be strong, courageous, not afraid, nor dismayed. Understand what God said to Joshua before he took him to the promised land. Grab hold to it and understand the same applies as He takes you into His promises for your life. Amen. SCRIPTURE MEDITATION Joshua 1:1-9 King James Version (KJV) 1 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, 2 Moses my servant is dead; now therefore arise, go over this Jordan, thou, and all this people, unto the land which I do give to them, even to the children of Israel. 3 Every place that the sole of your foot shall tread upon, that have I given unto you, as I said unto Moses. 4 From the wilderness and this Lebanon even unto the great river, the river Euphrates, all the land of the Hittites, and unto the great sea toward the going down of the sun, shall be your coast. 5 There shall not any man be able to stand before thee all the days of thy life: as I was with Moses, so I will be with thee: I will not fail thee, nor forsake thee. 6 Be strong and of a good courage: for unto this people shalt thou divide for an inheritance the land, which I sware unto their fathers to give them. 7 Only be thou strong and very courageous, that thou mayest observe to do according to all the law, which Moses my servant commanded thee: turn not from it to the right hand or to the left, that thou mayest prosper withersoever thou goest. 8 This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success. 9 Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the Lord thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest.
