And you will drive out the Canaanites from the valleys, too, even though they are strong and have iron chariots.”

Lord God my Father,

Give me the courage and strength to face and defeat my strongholds.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

 And Joshua did as he was told, carefully obeying all the commands that the Lord had given to Moses.

16So Joshua conquered the entire region—the hill country, the entire Negev, the whole area around the town of Goshen, the western foothills, the Jordan Valley,11:16 Hebrew the Shephelah, the Arabah. the mountains of Israel, and the Galilean foothills. 

No one in this region made peace with the Israelites except the Hivites of Gibeon. All the others were defeated. 20For the Lord hardened their hearts and caused them to fight the Israelites. So they were completely destroyed without mercy, as the Lord had commanded Moses.

Lord God my Father,

Help me to become obedient to your desire, above my own dysfunctional one. Bless me with your Peace and use it to guide me thru this day. Allow your army to defeat what ever stands in your plan for me. Cause Peace to flourish in my day.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

A man named Achan had stolen some of these dedicated things, so the Lord was very angry with the Israelites.

“Get up! Why are you lying on your face like this? 11Israel has sinned and broken my covenant! They have stolen some of the things that I commanded must be set apart for me. 

Then Joshua said to Achan, “My son, give glory to the Lord, the God of Israel, by telling the truth. Make your confession and tell me what you have done. Don’t hide it from me.”

Achan replied, “It is true! I have sinned against the Lord, the God of Israel. 21Among the plunder I saw a beautiful robe from Babylon,7:21a Hebrew Shinar. 200 silver coins,7:21b Hebrew 200 shekels of silver, about 5 pounds or 2.3 kilograms in weight. and a bar of gold weighing more than a pound.7:21c Hebrew 50 shekels, about 20 ounces or 570 grams in weight. I wanted them so much that I took them. 

But when the people of Gibeon heard what Joshua had done to Jericho and Ai, 4they resorted to deception to save themselves. 

So the Israelites examined their food, but they did not consult the Lord. 

Lord God my Father,

Keep me strong against the deceiver, keep me from taking any glory from you in my actions. Restore me to your purpose and give me strength over my struggles. Cause me to be honest before you, restoring me to my place in your plan. I have sinned against you, keep me from temptation. Cause my enemy to fear you thru the strength you give me.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

Then Joshua told the people, “Purify yourselves, for tomorrow the Lord will do great wonders among you.”

These armed men—about 40,000 strong—were ready for battle, and the Lord was with them as they crossed over to the plains of Jericho.

So the Lord was with Joshua, and his reputation spread throughout the land.

Lord God my Father,

Help me to become clean and live under your authority. Be with me as I move thru this day. Make my reputation all about you.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

So Moses, the servant of the Lord, died there in the land of Moab, just as the Lord had said. 6The Lord buried him34:6 Hebrew He buried him; Samaritan Pentateuch and some Greek manuscripts read They buried him. in a valley near Beth-peor in Moab, but to this day no one knows the exact place. 7Moses was 120 years old when he died, yet his eyesight was clear, and he was as strong as ever.

There has never been another prophet in Israel like Moses, whom the Lord knew face to face. 

This is my command—be strong and courageous! Do not be afraid or discouraged. For the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.”

They answered Joshua, “We will do whatever you command us, and we will go wherever you send us. 17We will obey you just as we obeyed Moses. And may the Lord your God be with you as he was with Moses. 18Anyone who rebels against your orders and does not obey your words and everything you command will be put to death. So be strong and courageous!”

Lord God my Father,

Humble me and build me up in your image to do your will. Use me to be strong and courageous in your plan and give me discernment to be obedient to only you!

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

O Lord, come back to us!

How long will you delay?

Take pity on your servants!

14Satisfy us each morning with your unfailing love,

so we may sing for joy to the end of our lives.

Let us, your servants, see you work again;

let our children see your glory.

17And may the Lord our God show us his approval

and make our efforts successful.

Yes, make our efforts successful!

Lord God my Father,

I cry for you to join me today, keep me under your authority and strong against the enemy. Help me to release my doubt and fears, to live confidently and joyfully. Make me successful.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

“The Lord our God has secrets known to no one. We are not accountable for them, but we and our children are accountable forever for all that he has revealed to us,

“Today I have given you the choice between life and death, between blessings and curses. Now I call on heaven and earth to witness the choice you make. Oh, that you would choose life, so that you and your descendants might live! 

So be strong and courageous! Do not be afraid and do not panic before them. For the Lord your God will personally go ahead of you. He will neither fail you nor abandon you.”

In the days to come, disaster will come down on you, for you will do what is evil in the Lord’s sight, making him very angry with your actions.”

Lord God my Father,

Reveal to me your desire, give me strength to follow you and discernment to deceit. Cause me to choose life abundant and protect me from fear. You are my God and my protector. Without your guidance I fail and fall into my sin nature. Hold me in your protection.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

“The Lord our God has secrets known to no one.

“The Lord your God will change your heart30:6 Hebrew circumcise your heart. and the hearts of all your descendants, so that you will love him with all your heart and soul and so you may live! 

After you are gone, these people will begin to worship foreign gods, the gods of the land where they are going. They will abandon me and break my covenant that I have made with them. 17Then my anger will blaze forth against them. I will abandon them, hiding my face from them, and they will be devoured. Terrible trouble will come down on them, and on that day they will say, ‘These disasters have come down on us because God is no longer among us!’ 

Lord God my Father,

Help me to surrender my will and allow you to have your way so I may be blessed as you desire. protect me from temptation.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

‘With this gift I acknowledge to the Lord your God that I have entered the land he swore to our ancestors he would give us.

 So be careful to obey them wholeheartedly. 17You have declared today that the Lord is your God. And you have promised to walk in his ways,

 You will be a nation that is holy to the Lord your God, just as he promised.”

Lord God my Father,

Help me to honor you and live by your promise without anxiety. You are in control and I am unable to understand your plan and that is ok. Help me to honor you with my thoughts and actions today.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

The Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, is with you!

Lord God my Father,

You are in charge and if you call me to do something, you will be with me. Keep me from fear and delay, help me to act as you desire.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen
