Joshua 1:1-9 Joshua 1:1-9

1 After the death of Moses the servant of the LORD, it came to pass that the LORD spoke to Joshua the son of Nun, Moses’ assistant, saying: 2 “Moses My servant is dead. Now therefore, arise, go over this Jordan, you and all this people, to the land which I am giving to them—the children of Israel. 3 Every place that the sole of your foot will tread upon I have given you, as I said to Moses. 4 From the wilderness and this Lebanon as far as the great river, the River Euphrates, all the land of the Hittites, and to the Great Sea toward the going down of the sun, shall be your territory.

5 No man shall be able to stand before you all the days of your life; as I was with Moses, so I will be with you.

Faith in GodFaith in God Faith and fear CANNOT co-exist

John 12:42-43 42Yet at the same time many even among the leaders believed in him. But because of the Pharisees they would not confess their faith for fear they would be put out of the synagogue; 43for they loved praise from men more than praise from God.

Without faith it’s impossible to please God (Heb 11:6) and faith comes from hearing by the Word (Rm 10:17)

Fear comes from hearing of bad news!

Forgiveness from God

Forgiveness from God

Gen 3:9 Then the LORD God called to Adam and said to him, “Where are you?”10 So he said, “I heard Your voice in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked; and I hid myself.”

No one told them they were naked. Sin creates guilt and fear. Adam didn’t confess and repent, he blamed Eve instead. Confess and repent from sins. 1 John 1:9

The Battle of Ai Hidden sins would distract our friendship with God and

destroy our Faith, would create fear and would prevent us from receiving the fulfillment of God’s promises.
