Week 2 “Joshua: The Promise You Can Trust”

YouVersion Bible App Event (19 July 2020): https://bible.com/events/25646105

In today’s message, you will learn about the promise of God for His people Israel to “rest” in the Promise Land.

BUT FIRST…

The people have to trust God and fight.

This promise represents God’s promise to us that we will inherit eternal life.

God is calling His Church to take the land. But can we do it when hope is dead? Can the Church be strong and courageous against a vicious enemy? This is the “THE PROMISE YOU CAN TRUST.”

Be strong and courageous, for you shall cause this people to inherit the land that I swore to their fathers to give them.

Joshua 1:6 (ESV)

YouVersion Bible App Event (19 July 2020): https://bible.com/events/25646105

Fight for Rest | Week 1: Joshua

“Remember the word that Moses the servant of the Lord commanded you, saying, ‘The Lord your God is providing you a place of rest and will give you this land.’ Your wives, your little ones, and your livestock shall remain in the land that Moses gave you beyond the Jordan, but all the men of valor among you shall pass over armed before your brothers and shall help them, until the Lord gives rest to your brothers as he has to you, and they also take possession of the land that the Lord your God is giving them.

Joshua 1:13-15a (ESV) | Joshua speaking to Two-and-a-half Tribes
  1. Be Prepared | Joshua 1:10-11
  2. To Fight for Rest | Joshua 1:12-15, Ephesians 6:10-18, Deuteronomy 3:20, Joshua 22:4, Hebrews 3:16-19, Hebrews 4:1-11
  3. Through Trust in God | Joshua 1:16-18

“Just as we obeyed Moses in all things, so we will obey you. Only may the Lord your God be with you, as he was with Moses!”

Joshua 1:17 (ESV) | Two-and-a-half Tribes responding to Joshua

"The first and most important thing we need to know about forgiveness is that the goal is to win our brother to the truth. Our goal is to win the person who's hurt us, who's sinned against us, who's offended us. Our goal is to win them to God."
