Be strong and courageous, for you are the one who will lead these people to possess all the land I swore to their ancestors I would give them. (Joshua 1:6 NLT)
There is a direct correlation between knowing the God of the Word, as revealed in the Word of God, and leading in bold obedience.
Be strong and very courageous. Be careful to obey all the instructions Moses gave you. Do not deviate from them…. Then you will be successful in everything you do. (Joshua 1:7 NLT)
Study this Book of Instruction continually. Meditate on it day and night so you will be sure to obey everything written in it. Only then will you prosper and succeed in all you do. (Joshua 1:8 NLT)
Study. Meditate. Obey. “Only then” will you be successful!
If God has called you to lead, lead in His strength—not in your own strength.
