Stay Strong



When Joshua was by Jericho, it tells us in Joshua 5:13-15, 
 that he didn't know he would encounter such a sight. 

What a surprise he received that day --- 
a man with a drawn sword. 

Would he do like he did -- talk to him?

Now Joshua was no ordinary person, he knew he could succeed
 with God by his side and a great deal of persistence.

As we read on, we find Joshua talking and like a reporter, taking down notes -

1. Humility was big for Joshua, and like you and I, should be big in our lives.

2. He stopped and worshiped God.

3. He asked God (Commander of Army) what he should do.


This was no small matter for Joshua.
 Thank God for men like Joshua. 

Let's be more like him!

The bible says in the Old Testament that the victory was their's. 

Years ago, I didn't realize what the Commander of the Lord's Army meant
 when he said "NO" to the question, 
Are you for us or are you against us?

Now, I think he meant it's up to you, make up your own mind.

First, you and I need to know God is for us, not against us.

No matter what we have said done, 
God is always for us!


Let's keep remembering I'm always for you even in the most trying and difficult situations.

We may wonder why God was using a drawn sword?
Was it to draw Joshua's mind to take his attention off himself 
and on to the battle that was to be?


Yes, I think so.

I read in the Winnipeg Free Press by Og Mandino -
Failure will never overtake me if my determination to succeed is strong enough. 

What do you think of that?

I think it is very good.

Let's stay strong.
