When Trouble Comes
I will not leave you nor forsake you.
- Joshua 1:5 -
The nation of Israel was in big trouble.
But the Lord promised the nation’s new leader: “I will not leave you nor forsake you” (Josh. 1:5).
Joshua was taking over leadership of the Israelites after Moses’ death, just before they were to enter the Promised Land.
Trouble was on the horizon with numerous military campaigns against their enemies.
Without God’s presence, they couldn’t begin to acquire the land.
God graciously gave Joshua the reminder, so that he could be courageous because of His presence.
God promises the same to His children today (Heb. 13:5-6).
The Lord is always with us, even when we’re in much trouble.
When troubles call on us, call on God.
