Rev. John Lukomski, retired pastor in Southern Illinois, joins host Rev. AJ Espinosa to study Joshua 1.
“Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go.” This verse from Joshua 1 is one of the most popular in the Bible, but what exactly is God promising?
God does not promise to bless our every endeavor. He will be where He promises to be, and in the case of Joshua, that meant His aid in the battle for Canaan. It wasn’t because of Joshua’s personal qualities, but because of his faith in the promise God made to Moses. We too should go to where God has promised to be: in Christ’s Word and sacraments.
