Joshua 23:14

"Now I am about to go the way of all the earth. You know with all your heart and soul that not one of all the good promises the Lord your God gave you has failed. Every promise has been fulfilled; not one has failed."

God is indeed so good and so faithful. How should i respond? To be faithful to him!

Joshua 16:10

¹⁰ They did not dislodge the Canaanites living in Gezer; to this day the Canaanites live among the people of Ephraim but are required to do forced labor.

The danger of not removing things of the past from our lives - they will make our lives difficult in the future.

Joshua 13:33

'But to the tribe of Levi, Moses had given no inheritance; the Lord, the God of Israel, is their inheritance, as he promised them.'

Is the Lord enough for me? He should be, shouldn't he?

Joshua 9:14

'The Israelites sampled their provisions but did not inquire of the Lord.'

A reminder of the importance not to rely on own self but to seek God's guidance always.

Joshua 7:20-21

'Achan replied, “It is true! I have sinned against the Lord, the God of Israel. This is what I have done: When I saw in the plunder a beautiful robe from Babylonia, two hundred shekels of silver and a bar of gold weighing fifty shekels, I coveted them and took them. They are hidden in the ground inside my tent, with the silver underneath.”'

Sin starts by seeing - if I do not stop it, one thing will lead to another.

Joshua 1:9

^"Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go."

I *will* be strong and courageous! It is so good to know that wherever i go, God will be with me. and not just where i go physically! where i am heading to in my life, God will be with me.

Deuteronomy 33:29

"Blessed are you, Israel! Who is like you, a people saved by the Lord? He is your shield and helper and your glorious sword."

Similarly, I am so blessed. God saved me, he is my shield and my helper.

Deuteronomy 30:11-14

¹¹ Now what I am commanding you today is not too difficult for you or beyond your reach. ¹² It is not up in heaven, so that you have to ask, “Who will ascend into heaven to get it and proclaim it to us so we may obey it?” ¹³ Nor is it beyond the sea, so that you have to ask, “Who will cross the sea to get it and proclaim it to us so we may obey it?” ¹⁴ No, the word is very near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart so you may obey it.

God's commands are not too difficult to follow. I mustobey his words.

Deut 6:10-12

"When the Lord your God brings you into the land he swore to your fathers, to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, to give you—a land with large, flourishing cities you did not build, houses filled with all kinds of good things you did not provide, wells you did not dig, and vineyards and olive groves you did not plant—then when you eat and are satisfied, be careful that you do not forget the Lord, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery."

I must not be ungrateful - i must remember what the Lord has done for me and to give the glory.

Matthew 28:20

"And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."

He will not leave me alone. I always have him with me.

"Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit..."

We are to make disciples of all nations. God truly loves the whole world!

Deut 4:2, 9

Do not add to what I command you and do not subtract from it, but keep the commands of the Lord your God that I give you.


Only be careful, and watch yourselves closely so that you do not forget the things your eyes have seen or let them fade from your heart as long as you live. Teach them to your children and to their children after them.

God's commands are sacred - and it is important that i follow them.

Numbers 35:34

"Do not defile the land where you live and where I dwell, for I, the Lord, dwell among the Israelites."

As my body is the temple of the Holy spirit, i should not defile it in any way.

Numbers 33:55

"But if you do not drive out the inhabitants of the land, those you allow to remain will become barbs in your eyes and thorns in your sides. They will give you trouble in the land where you will live."

We have to remove all the things in us that causes us to sin.

Numbers 27:14

"...for when the community rebelled at the waters in the Desert of Zin, both of you disobeyed my command to honor me as holy before their eyes.” (These were the waters of Meribah Kadesh, in the Desert of Zin.)

It is a serious thing not to honour God and not to obey his commands.

Numbers 25:10-13

The Lord said to Moses, “Phinehas son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron, the priest, has turned my anger away from the Israelites. Since he was as zealous for my honor among them as I am, I did not put an end to them in my zeal. Therefore tell him I am making my covenant of peace with him. He and his descendants will have a covenant of a lasting priesthood, because he was zealous for the honor of his God and made atonement for the Israelites.”

It pleases The Lord to be zealous for his honour.

Numbers 22:38

“Well, I have come to you now,” Balaam replied. “But I can’t say whatever I please. I must speak only what God puts in my mouth.”

I should only say and do what the Lord allows me to do.

Those who serve the Lord will be blessed by the Lord. He will not forget the service we render to him. The rewards will be for his servant and his/her family members.

Numbers 11:4-6, 20

When longing about things in our lives (before we knew Christ) which i have given up, i can be considered to be rejecting God.

The old has gone, the new is here. Leave the old in the past.
