A firm mind means courage. God spoke to Joshua at the time when he had to do the greatest work. A strong mind does not come without success.
Let's be strong depending on the Lord
Be strong and strong (Joshua 1:7)
A strong mind means courage. God spoke to Joshua at the time when he had to do the greatest work. Strength does not come without strength. But where does this strength come from? This is not human strength, but God's strength. We should get it only from God.
Who is saying this? God God is God. He does what he says. You can depend on him. Like Joshua, He will reward us no matter how big the task we have to accomplish or whatever we have to do. It can be strong.
The psalmist says that the Lord is my strength. Many today fear nothing because they do not take the Lord as their strength. Fortitude is not among them. Fear of anything. Fear of the future. Many depend on their own strength and wealth and not on God. True strength depends on the Lord Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord and trusts in the Lord (Jeremiah 17:7). Let's be strong depending on the Lord. Amen.
