“Only be strong and very courageous, that you may observe to do according to all the law which Moses My servant commanded you; do not turn from it to the right hand or to the left, that you may prosper wherever you go.” Joshua 1:7 NKJV
In the scripture above, Moses had passed on the mantle of leadership to Joshua, who was to lead the children of Israel into the promised land. This was a massive change and God’s first instruction to Joshua as he prepared for this great change was that he should be strong and courageous.
This is God’s expectation for us that when we are faced with change, we should approach it with strength, boldness and courage because change requires courage.
Change is inevitable, nothing stays the same forever therefore, approach it with boldness. Change, especially God ordained change is inevitable.
“To everything there is a season, A time for every purpose under heaven:”
Ecclesiastes 3:1 NKJV
Shalom!
