God is telling Joshua to be strong and courageous as he follows the commands given to him.God was telling Joshua this before he went out in battle. Just as Joshua is encouraged to be strong and courageous in order to follow God’s commands, tasks, and assignments for him, we too need to be strong and courageous, following what God has given us to do. The word “strong” here means to be courageous, to be firm, to conquer, to seize.
“Be strong” is a command from God to you as it was to Joshua, so that you don’t have to feel weak or unable, causing you to yield to the enemy in what you are facing today. Instead, you can stand firm footed and move forward with God’s instructions for you in courage and bravery! To be strong is to be infused with God’s supernatural strength and ability. You are empowered with a special touch of God’s strength in your innermost being. So take that strength and apply it to whatever you will face each day!
Just as Joshua is encouraged to be strong and courageous…we too need to be strong and courageous, following what God has given us to do.
As you face each test or challenge, face it with courage, knowing you are able to do all God has given for you to do this day!
In what situation can you apply God’s command to be strong today?
How is the Holy Spirit leading you to proceed with this challenge?
Walk with the King…
