I have hidden Thy word in my heart.

Joshua 1. “I will give you every place where you set your foot, as I promised Moses. Your territory will extend from the desert to Lebanon, and from the great river, the Euphrates—all the Hittite country—to the Mediterranean Sea in the west. No one will be able to stand against you all the days of your life. As I was with Moses, so I will be with you; I will never leave you nor forsake you. Be strong and courageous…” (Verses 3-6). This begins the journey into the promise. Joshua is taking the first steps towards God’s second chance for His people. In these verses God promises that everywhere their feet touch or step will be their’s to possess. This morning I woke up worried. There is something I am praying about. Much like, Joshua, I feel as though God is leading me (and my family) to a promise. But we have to walk, we have to face the enemy, and we have to be prepared to battle in Christ to achieve the goal He has for us. These verses are true for us all, God has a direction and a call for all of us. He has a promise for each of us to posses, but we must trust and like Joshua, follow where He leads even if the request seems unreasonable. God blesses our obedience, ALWAYS.
