The Future is Guaranteed for Evangelism(Joshua1:1~9)
Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go.“(9)
Hymn #440 Anywhere With Jesus I Can Safely Go(Unified Hymn 497)
Today’s passage describes the moment right before the Israelites entered the land of Canaan. This was the most important turning point in history, a moment when the world was about to shift. Once you see this, the way you view your past, present, future, and problems will change. If you don't see this, unbelief ends up controlling your life. There was something Joshua first saw. While staying with Moses, he saw the covenant of the blood sacrifice(Exodus 3:18) and the 10 miracles. He saw the miracles of the Red Sea and the wilderness, and he understood the mystery of the tabernacle and the Ark of the Covenant. As Moses' assistant, he saw God who was with Moses, and Moses who was with God. After becoming a leader, he saw the 12 tribes and the 12 regions. God had already said He had given them the land, and He told Joshua 7 times to be strong and courageous. You must understand the covenant Joshua held firmly as he moved forward.
1. The Path of Only that was Restored After 400 Hundred Years
This was the moment when the original Gospel Genesis 3:15 was restored and the time the covenant given to Abraham(Genesis 12:1~3) was fulfilled. With the power of the blood sacrifice, the Israelites moved towards world evangelization and the land of Canaan(Exodus 3:18). This was the restoration of their foundation.
2. The Path of Uniqueness Where the Word is Fulfilled
This was the path of Uniqueness where God fulfilled what He had spoken to Moses. God showed the Israelites His absolute mission when the Israelites were slaves. Also, during the Exodus, He showed them His absolute salvation. That’s how entering into Canaan became the absolute start of world evangelization.
3. The Path of Re-creation that Saves the World
God told the Israelites to cross the Jordan. This was to show the Remnants, who had not seen the 10 miracles that defeated Egypt or the parting of the Red Sea according to God’s Word.
The missionaries simply must find the path that’s already guaranteed. The method is to confirm yourself through the Word, prayer, and evangelism, as well as see the stream of the region you reside in. You must raise church officers and the Remnants and entrust them with one nation. You must also raise them into those who do 24 hour prayer. Jesus promised He’d be with you by the power of the Throne.
