Here are four (4) truths from Joshua 1 that will empower you and New Life to reach the fullness of God’s promises this year.

1. You are an object of God’s immense possibilities.
Jos 1:3-4 Every place that the sole of your foot shall tread upon, I have given that to you, as I said to Moses. From the wilderness and this Lebanon even to the great river, the river Euphrates, all the land of the Hittites, and to the Great Sea toward the going down of the sun, shall be your border.

2. God is on your side. You will not fail.
Jos 1:5 No man shall be able to stand before you all the days of your life. As I was with Moses, so I will be with you. I will not fail you nor forsake you.

3. Don't be discouraged no matter what your circumstances are because God is always fighting your battles.
Jos 1:9 Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage. Do not be afraid, neither be dismayed. For Jehovah your God is with you in all places where you go.

4. Be humble, teachable, obedient and submitted to God’s leadership.
Jos 1:16-18 They answered Joshua, "We will do whatever you command us, and we will go wherever you send us. We will obey you just as we obeyed Moses. And may the LORD your God be with you as He was with Moses. Anyone who rebels against your orders and does not obey your words and everything you command will be put to death. So be strong and courageous!"
