The book of Joshua is the record of God fulfilling his promise to bring his people into the promised land. But God is not going to merely give them the land. The call to his people and to his leader, Joshua, is to be strong and courageous. The book of Joshua is the challenge of faith. Will we trust in God so that we will be strong and courageous to face the obstacles that are before us? Or will we trust in ourselves, trusting in what we see, rather than in the unseen God who controls what we see? In Joshua 3-5 the scriptures are going to ask if we are willing to step in faith.
