Joshua

 

Joshua

Joshua, born and raised in Egypt, was perhaps in his twenties when God delivered the Hebrew people from slavery. Joshua, appointed by Moses as General of the Hebrew army won the battle of the Amalekites while Moses lifted up his hands to God in prayer. Aaron and Hur held up Moses’ arms until the battle was won.

Joshua leads Israel from victory to victory as they follow the Lord and claim their inheritance. This book written by Joshua records the dedication of the nation, the defeat of the enemy, and the division of the land.

He learned that the children of Israel could not save themselves; only God could save them. He was commissioned by God to enter the land, conquer the land, and divide the land between the twelve tribes of Israel. Thus, they began life as a nation under God.

Joshua immersed himself in the assurances of God and lived in day-to-day obedience.

Following the Lord is not complicated when we trust and obey. “Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.” Matthew 6:33.

We can have victory, even over what seems impossible, if we put our faith in God.
