Facing Life’s Obstacles
Joshua 1:1-9

As Joshua stepped into Moses’s giant-sized sandals, he faced a tremendous challenge: bringing the Israelites into the Promised Land.

The responsibility was huge, and we can surmise from the Lord’s repeated commands to “be strong and courageous” that Joshua was probably not feeling up to the task.
Joshua 1:6-7; Joshua 1:9

At one time or another, we all face obstacles that seem insurmountable.

The question is, how will we respond?

Some people try to push through or manipulate their way around the barriers, while others wallow in hopelessness and give up.

But the Lord wants us to trust Him to remove each problem or impediment.

Any obstacle that stands between us and God’s purpose is subject to His supernatural power.

Most of us would readily agree that nothing is too difficult for the Lord, but fear and worry reveal our doubts.

With Gods blessings, fear and worry are wasted energy, that can be put to better use.

By focusing on the problem, we allow it to grow and block our view of almighty God.

Knowing the difficulty of Joshua’s assignment, the Lord assured him that he would be successful in completing the mission.

God’s responsibility was to remove every hindrance that stood between the Israelites and the land He had promised to give them.

Joshua’s job was to believe the Lord and carefully obey all His commands.

Obstacles are one way that our faith can grow.

When we are confused and cannot see how God could work out our situation, do not walk away in defeat and miss His blessing.

God wants to teach us His way of obedience, trust and courage.

Have faith and Believe God, He always keeps His promises.
