Difficulties are situations that often paralyze the spirit of any person. Obstacles usually slow people down and don't let them see the opportunities they have for God to act on their behalf.

When God announced to Joshua that his servant Moses had died, and that instead of him, Joshua would take command, the young Joshua became very fearful, so that God had to use words that encouraged Joshua to advance to achieve the goal of introducing the people of Israel into the promised land. What God was proposing to Joshua was not easy, since replacing Moses in leadership was a very demanding task for the same hardness of the heart of Israel. In addition, Joshua and the people of Israel were already facing a great obstacle that was the Jordan River that was stirred by its flood. All this filled Joshua with great fear that God had to tell him: “No one will be able to face you in all the days of your life; As I was with Moses, I will be with you; I will not leave you nor forsake you.

God encourages Joshua to be filled with courage and great courage and the Lord promises Joshua to be with him continually, just as he had done with Moses. This implied that in the way that God made way for the people of Israel in the middle of the Red Sea under the leadership of Moses, that way he would do with the Jordan under the leadership of Joshua.

God promised to accompany Joshua in all the battles he waged, so that no one could face him.

When God promises His presence in our lives, He will take care of fighting our battles, it is up to us to advance and believe God, because He promised Christians to be with us every day of our lives. In this sense, dear friend, move forward because God is with you.
