Joshua 11:9, 15, 23

There is repetition in this chapter that stands out. Without argument Joshua does what God directly told him to do and what God had told Moses to do. No argument, no question, no “tweaking”, no wavering. Joshua just did it. He left nothing undone (v.15).

Joshua had to know what God had commanded before he could just do it. I am challenged again to be in the Word and to be in a close relationship with God so that I know what He wants me to do. I am also challenged then to just do it. No argument, no question, no “tweaking”, no wavering.

Lord, help me to be so close to You today to know what it is You want me to do. Give me a desire to obey you… to just do it. Give me a deep trust in you to know that what you want me to do is the very best thing that I can do.
