“Y’hoshua made war with all those kings for a long time.”
Joshua 11:18 CJB

Life is a war filled with many battles! We will win some and we will lose some, but remember, with Adonai the war is won, we just have a lot of daily battles!

“You won’t even need to fight this battle! Just take your positions, Y’hudah and Yerushalayim, stand still, and watch how Adonai will deliver you! Don’t be afraid or distressed; tomorrow, go out against them, for Adonai is with you.”
2 Chronicles 20:17 CJB

Again, we will have battles. Remember, as we go through them Yeshua is right beside us getting us, through them, all!

“Haven’t I ordered you, Be strong, be bold? So don’t be afraid or downhearted, because Adonai your God is with you wherever you go.”
Joshua 1:9 CJB

Today, we see that, as believers, we are at war with the world! What we need to do is not get downhearted or discouraged, but instead know Adonai has already won and we are with Him on the winning side!
Have a blessed day in Him!

“Y’hoshua captured all these kings and their land all at the same time, because Adonai the God of Israel fought on Israel’s behalf.”
Joshua 10:42 CJB

We have the same assurances as Israel, Adonai fights on our behalf, this should greatly comfort us!

“God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.”
Psalm 46:1 CJB

Life can stress us out from time to time and we can feel overwhelmed! We just need to remember God fights on our behalf, so we should let things go and watch what He will do!

“Desist, and learn that I am God, supreme over the nations, supreme over the earth.”
Psalm 46:10 CJB

Today, what a great reminder to let things go and just watch what Adonai is going to do, He has all things covered!
Have a blessed day watching and learning from Adonai!

“The man sampled some of their food but didn’t seek the advice of Adonai, so Y’hoshua made peace with them and made a covenant with them to spare their lives, and the leading officials of the community swore to them. But three days later, after they made a covenant with them, they heard that they were their neighbors, that they lived there with them.”
Joshua 9:14-16 CJB

Two things to see here, one; don’t lie and two; before you make a deal, ask Adonai and do some research!

“But if you will not do this, then you have sinned against Adonai, and you must understand that your sin will find you out.”
Numbers 32:23 CJB

When we sin it will always come back to bite us in one way or the other! So we all need to do our best at being upright!

“Don’t delude yourselves: no one makes a fool of God! A person reaps what he sows.”
Galatians 6:7 CJB

Today, know that we can’t pull the wool over God’s eyes nor can we make any good decisions without calling upon Him for advice and direction!
So have a blessed looking to Adonai!

“He wrote there on the stones a copy of the Torah of Moshe, inscribing it in the presence of the people of Israel.”
Joshua 8:32 CJB

We should always have on us a copy of God’s instructions, in order to walk in His ways and to know His will!

“I treasure Your word in my heart, so that I won’t sin against You.”
Psalm 119:11 CJB

We need the word of God to guide us and direct us through our day, I don’t know how anyone can live without it!

“Your word is a lamp for my foot and light on my path.”
Psalm 119:105 CJB

Today, realize we are super blessed to have access to the word of God to guide us and instruct us through out the day!
Have a blessed day getting into the word of God and doing it!

“Israel has sinned. Yes, they have violated My covenant, which I commanded them. They have taken some of what was to have been set aside for destruction. They have stolen it, lied about it and put it with their own things.”
Joshua 7:11 CJB

We see this today. When a nation sins, there are going to be consequences! Here we see not all of Israel sinned, but only some! Unfortunately, everyone was punished or felt the repercussions!

“Then, if My people, who bear My name, will humble themselves, pray, seek My face and turn from their evil ways, I will hear from heaven, forgive their sin and heal their land.”
2 Chronicles 7:14 CJB

Not just our nation, but many nations in the world today, are full of self centeredness, ungodliness and evil. Just like Aiken and his family they just want, take and then deny God! I believe that many of the issues we see in the world around us are due to the blatant sin against God!

“When I acknowledge my sin to you, when I stopped concealing my guilt, and said, I will confess my offenses to Adonai; then you, you forgave the guilt of my sin.”
Psalm 32:5 CJB

Today, if we want to see healing happen, realize confession and repentance starts with us! We all can see the world around us needs Yeshua! So let’s confess, repent and pray for salvation!
Have a blessed day knowing what God has is better than anything we may think we want!
