ONE MONTH TO LIVE - DAY THIRTEEN (COURAGEOUS)

We live in a broken world full of fears.  I have the fear of failure, fear of embarrassing myself in front of others, fear of large nasty insects amongst other things.  With all these fears, it isn't always easy to overcome our fears but Joshua chapter one continually says to be strong and courageous.  I'm reminded that strength and courage comes from our Lord.

Even when I have my doubts or my future is uncertain, the Bible says in verse 6, "Be strong and courageous, because you will lead these people to inherit the land I swore to their forefathers to give them."  It goes on to say that if we do not turn from His Word, that he would give us success wherever we go.

It is so encouraging to lean on God's word and to hear the promises of God in times of turmoil.  Are you letting God's Word overcome the fear in your life?  Be strong and courageous!
