Joshua 1:7-9

"Only be strong and very courageous, that you may observe to do according to all the law which Moses My servant commanded you; do not turn from it to the right hand or to the left, that you may prosper wherever you go. 

This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate in it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success.

 Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.”
~Joshua 1:7-9

Today, as you go about your day to day tasks, meditate on these verses.  Especially think about verse nine in the context of the other two.  What does it mean?  God has promised to be with us and to help us meditate on His words and obey Him.  We do not need to fear, for although the path of obedience and of knowing His Word intimately will not be easy, it is possible through Christ. 

May the Lord bless you today as you grow in grace and in the knowledge of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.  May He always be front and center in your life.
