Joshua 1:5 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.
Moses is dead, but the work of God must go on. He chooses Joshua to lead Israel to conquer Canaan. He promises victory over every enemy. He promises His presence and power, and He keeps His promises. All Joshua has to do is trust Him.
The Lord makes the same promises to believers today, so why wouldn’t we want to live in spiritual victory? I believe we do. By His power we are able to live as close to God as we can. We can put Jesus first and shed whatever is hindering us. Spiritual victory involves reading and obeying God's Word. What about church attendance, money, and talents? You see, God wants all of us. Seek Him.
