Fear not

Today's verse is Joshua 1:8,9
     This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.
     Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the LORD thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest.

Because of the Word of God, we can face whatever we must face, maybe not without fear, but with courage. As Joshua and the Children of Israel were looking to enter into the promise land, there was much to fear: many of the people of the land were giants, they were well fortified, but God was with them, and when our God is with us we need not fear the difficulties ahead of us, no matter how impossible what God wants us to do may seem. Therefore, as God commanded Joshua, let us so do, "Be strong and of good courage. . . for the Lord thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest."

To God be the Glory
