Arise / Joshua 1:1
Joshua 1:1
After forty years of wandering in the wilderness, a new generation of Israelites stands ready to claim the promises of God. Moses is dead, Joshua has been called to lead, and the responsibility to walk by faith now rests on their shoulders. As we begin our study through the book of Joshua, we discover powerful lessons about leadership, discipleship, the consequences of failure, and the responsibility of each generation to answer God's call. Just as Joshua was commanded to arise and take the land, Christ calls us to move beyond passive faith and engage the mission he has given us. The question is not whether God has called us, but whether we will arise and follow.
