As we continue to trek the Israelites' journey after entering the Promised Land, we realise we are far from the end of their story. There were still battles to fight, enemies to defeat and above all – there was a choice to be made. A choice to obey God fully and walk with Him daily. A choice to believe the Promise Keeper would not fail them.
This series helps us recognise that we're presented with the same choice today. In Joshua's last words, he urges the people to cling tightly to the Lord and be very careful to love Him. Perhaps he knew it would be a choice they had to make every day to see God's promises fulfilled.
Every day, we have a choice to make. Would we choose to love God, trust Him and walk with Him? When we do so as His people, our lives will testify of who God is.
