Deuteronomy 3:21–22
Throughout the wilderness journey, God reminded the Israelites of what He had done in the past in order to give them courage and hope for the future.As the reins of leadership were passed from Moses to Joshua, Moses encouraged Joshua with a review of recent victories.
Joshua saw with his own eyes what God did to those who opposed them.
If God has shown Himself faithful to this point, He will surely continue to do so.
God is the same yesterday, today and forever.
When we face intimidating circumstances in our lives, we can take heart from Moses’ words to Joshua: “Do not be afraid of them; the LORD your God himself will fight for you” (Deuteronomy 3:22).
God can strengthen and encourage us when we trust in Him.
