Fear can paralyze anyone. When it comes to making decisions, we often need courage much more than we need more information.

In the first chapter of the book of Joshua, we see God continuing to answer an old promise through new leadership. Taking the reigns from one of Israel's most beloved leaders, Joshua reminds all the people that taking a hold of God's promises will require great courage in spite of the fact that God promises the battle to already be won.

In the same way, all Christians will require to be courageous as they fight sin and live in obedience to the mission that Jesus has called them to live.
