Fear

          1. Fear is a primal emotion.
          2. Moving from Moses to Joshua (Dt 34:8)

Call to Go and inherit the Land (Josh 1:1-5)

          1. Moses is God’s servant (Josh 1:1, 24:29)
          2. God is still speaking
          3. Moses is dead, let’s get moving (Josh 1:1-2)
            1. Joshua is to assume the mantle of leadership (Ex 17:14, Num 27:18-22)
            2. Is there something in this for us?
              1. First, it is easy to look backward and to become preoccupied with what has been.
              2. Second, too often I am worried about what is coming next, future contingencies, etc. and I can’t get God to speak to me about them.
            3. It will take effort to receive the gift of God (Josh 1:3)
            4. The extent of the Promised Land (Josh 1:4, Gen 15:18)

Specific encouragement to Joshua (Josh 1:5-9)

          1. I will establish you (Josh 1:5a, Mt 16:18)
          2. I will be with you (Josh 1:5b, Heb 13:5)
          3. Be strong and Courageous (Josh 1:6-9)
