Scripture:
Joshua 1:9
"Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go."
Reflection:
As the Israelites prepared to enter the Promised Land, they faced new challenges and battles. God’s command to Joshua to be strong and courageous was a reminder that courage is not the absence of fear but the presence of faith. When we consecrate ourselves to God, we are empowered to face new challenges with confidence, knowing that He is with us. Courage is fueled by the assurance of God’s presence and promises, enabling us to step into the unknown with boldness.
Prayer:
Lord, thank You for Your promise to be with me wherever I go. Help me to be strong and courageous as I face new challenges. Remind me that my strength comes from You and that I can trust in Your presence and guidance. Fill me with faith to overcome fear and discouragement. Amen.
Action:
Identify a challenge or opportunity you are facing. Write down God’s promises related to it and meditate on them. Take a step of faith today, trusting in God’s presence and strength to guide you.
