Joshua 1:8-9 “Keep this Book of the Law always on your lips; 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 afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.”

What wonderful assurance: God is with us!  His Presence strengthens us.  His Spirit encourages us.  We praise a powerful God who overcomes fear.  He commands us to know and follow His living Word for it empowers us with truth and courage. We are overcomers in Him.  We are strong and courageous because He is with us.
