Joshua 1:9
9 Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go."
Powerful words spoken from God to Joshua. Can you imagine the pressure of taking over the job of the guy who was considered the greatest leader of all time? Not an easy position to be in, some would consider it to be an impossible job. God moves people around to make room for new people, many time better people.
Joshua was Moses right hand man, Joshua supported Moses in every way, he studied Moses and followed his instruction without question. He was his most trusted advisor and friend. Both a warrior and a worshipper
There was no one more qualified to take Moses place, and yet Joshua felt completely unsuited for the job.
One of the biggest challenges we face is believing that God has called us.
Every person on the planet has a calling……EVERYONE!
We hide behind false modesty and honest ignorance. “Did God really call me to do the work of His kingdom?”
He was not only called you, He has gifted you, he has equipped you, he has annointed you and God has put you in the right place at the right time.
God is with us always.
See what God is calling you to do this week.
Have an awesome week.
See you in Church.
