Message Title: A Call for Courage
Message Truth: Courage requires putting a greater good before a lesser good. Courage is getting your heart in the right place at the right time and for the right reason despite the obstacles.
Message Text: Joshua 1:1-9
Four Courage Robbers
1.Fear of the Unknown / Lack of Control
2.Desire for Human Approval
3.Lack of Trust in God
A wrong view of God will dilute the real God. The real God makes people nervous that live for their own Kingdom.
4.Sin / Disobedience
Disobedience short circuits your peace, faith, confidence and courage.
Four Courage Builders
1.Meditate on God’s Word (v.8)
2.Obey God’s Word (v.8)
3.Believe God has Your Best in Mind (v.8)
- Prosperous- to get behind and push forward.
- Successful– when those who know you the best love and respect you the most.
4.Believe God Will Be with You (v.9)
