Live By Faith
And without faith
it is impossible
to please God,
because anyone
who comes to him
must believe that he exists and
that he rewards those
who earnestly seek him.
Hebrews 11:6
Love Like Christ
Jesus said -
"A new command I give you:
Love one another.
As I have loved you,
so you must love one another.
35 By this all men will know
that you are my disciples,
if you love one another."
John 13:34-35
Learn to Serve
Therefore, my dear brothers,
stand firm.
Let nothing move you.
Always give yourselves fully
to the work of the Lord,
because you know
that your labor in the Lord
is not in vain.
1 Corinthians 15:58

Joshua 1:1-9

1 After the death of Moses the servant of the LORD, the LORD said to Joshua son of Nun, Moses’
aide: 2 “Moses my servant is dead. Now then, you and all these people, get ready to cross the
Jordan River into the land I am about to give to them—to the Israelites. 3 I will give you every place
where you set your foot, as I promised Moses. 4 Your territory will extend from the desert to
Lebanon, and from the great river, the Euphrates—all the Hittite country—to the Great Sea on the
west. 5 No one will be able to stand up against you all the days of your life. As I was with Moses, so
I will be with you; I will never leave you nor forsake you.
6 “Be strong and courageous, because you will lead these people to inherit the land I swore to their
forefathers to give them. 7 Be strong and very courageous. Be careful to obey all the law my servant
Moses gave you; do not turn from it to the right or to the left, that you may be successful wherever
you go. 8 Do not let this Book of the Law depart from your mouth; meditate on it day and night, so
that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful. 9
Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged,
for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go.”
