Grace To Press Forward Joshua 1:1-18 The book of Joshua denotes the transition from the patriarchal age to the age of settled occupation in the land of Canaan. To the Christian, the book of Joshua is a roadmap for spiritual peace, protection, promise and prosperity. The book of Joshua is God’s object lesson on living the victorious Christian life. When we do that, the redemptive purpose of God, for us, will be fulfilled. HOW TO MOVE FORWARD TO RECEIVE THE BLESSINGS OF GOD 1. Stand on the Promises. v. 3. 2. Sense the Presence. v.5 3. Stay the Path v.7. 4. Start the Process. v.11God’s formula for success is outlined in Joshua 1:8. In fact, this is the only time the word “success” is found in the Bible. In God’s economy there is no other formula for success than obedience to God’s Word. In business, in marriage, in career, in finances, in family, in the future, the key to success is found in how we observe and obey the instructions God has set forth. When you’ve done it your way and failed, why not try God’s way and flourish? Try following the directions God has given because it leads to Canaan every single time.
