Joshua was one of the two brave spies that were sent out to check out the land God had promised to the Israelites. He then emerges as Moses’ assistant who is called by God to lead the people into the Promised Land. He does not have Moses any longer or all the details, but God has called Joshua to something much bigger than him. In the midst of fear, God told Joshua to be strong and courageous because He is with him, and the same goes for us.
