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

“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.”

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,

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!

In Jesus name I pray,

O Sovereign Lord, you have only begun to show your greatness and the strength of your hand to me, your servant. Is there any god in heaven or on earth who can perform such great and mighty deeds as you do?
‘How wise and prudent are the people of this great nation!’ 7For what great nation has a god as near to them as the Lord our God is near to us whenever we call on him?
But from there you will search again for the Lord your God. And if you search for him with all your heart and soul, you will find him.
You have six days each week for your ordinary work, 14but the seventh day is a Sabbath day of rest dedicated to the Lord your God. On that day no one in your household may do any work.
Lord God my Father,
Show your greatness on this country once again. Restore us to your order and Truth. We call on you to pour yourself over us and make us clean. We seek you and look forward to delighting in your presence in great ways. Help us to be still in your presence and allow you to have your way.
“As for me, I stayed on the mountain in the Lord’s presence for forty days and nights, as I had done the first time. And once again the Lord listened to my pleas and agreed not to destroy you. 11Then the Lord said to me, ‘Get up and resume the journey,
And you must always obey the Lord’s commands and decrees that I am giving you today for your own good.
Therefore, change your hearts10:16 Hebrew circumcise the foreskin of your hearts. and stop being stubborn.
“Look, today I am giving you the choice between a blessing and a curse! 27You will be blessed if you obey the commands of the Lord your God that I am giving you today. 28But you will be cursed if you reject the commands of the Lord your God and turn away from him and worship gods you have not known before.
Lord God my Father,
I pray for our nation, for it to get back under your blessing. Help me to be a good witness to you and cause others to seek you. Make us stubborn to only follow you if we are to be stubborn. Help me to follow your design over my own decisions.
In Jesus name I pray,
Amen
