is typical of clods people they are to go on they are to be like israel to whom came the word moses i dead bat now therefore arise- and go under a new leader our lessons for this quarter cen- ter around the experiences of israel from joshua to david a period rich in historical data much of it with most helpful spiritual application it affords a real opportunity for effective teaching moses was now dead but that only brought forth i gods provision of a new lead er 1 l j god buries- his workmen at the end of their day of labor but gods work goes on the people had become attached to moses and had learned to trust bis leadership even though they often murmured with his death we might have assumed that there would be a letdown but that was not in gods plan the lord works through men he- gives them abilities and uses them for his glory often in a way which astonishes them and others but- let them not become proud for god has someone to take their place when they are gone they are not indispensable sometimes people talk sj though all the great leaders of the church had died or were dying yet god- has some obedient men who are ready to step into the gap joshua was ready when god was ready and he stepped into leader ship ii- gods promise of ttctory 13- 5 the promise given to moses was still good gods promises are al ways good they are the only real ly stable thing in a trembling uni verse the question is are we ready to accept him at his word 11 our love were but more aimple we abould tak him at his mid and w ttvwi would be all aihlm in the mttuxu of our lord fabor they were to step out by faith the land was promised to them only as the sole of their foot should tread upon r israel never took out the full promise of verse 4 they lacked faith do we god honors those who believe him and who move forward by faith to plant the foot of spiritual conquest m new territory some are doing it now are we the enemies of gods people were many and mighty but they were not able to stand in the way of gods people when they were moving for ward for him here again israel failed they did not drive them out because they did not take god at his word the- application truth to us is obvious iii gods plea for obedteace unt courage 1 68 be strong and of good courage character which calls for submis sion for turning everything over to god for being sweet and spiritual all that is good and very desirable but it can never be substituted for that other side which shows virile courage and fearless abandon to the cause of our god e joshua was made to realize as we must too that serving god and especially m a place of leadershipr calls for g measure of high courage unsurpassed tn any other pursuit of man it takes all there is of a man to be a real follower of christ be sure of that this courage however is not to be confused with a foolhardy brav ery which is reckless and unin telligent no indeed for it is based on the observance of gods law v 7 note v 8 the importance of
