Song # 1741.1 from Our Gospel In Song Collection by Col Johnston. Before his death, Joshua spoke with the leaders reminding them of all the good promises that the Lord had given them. Joshua died at the age of a hundred and ten, and he was buried in the land of his inheritance, at Timnath Serah in the hill country of Ephraim, north of Mount Gaash.
You know with all your heart and soul not one of all the good promises the Lord your God gave you has failed. Every promise has been fulfilled, not one has failed (Joshua 23:14). But just as every good promise of the Lord your God has come true, so the Lord will bring you all the evil He has threatened, until He has destroyed you from this good land He has given you (Joshua 23:15). If you violate the covenant of the Lord your God, which He commanded you, and go and serve other gods and bow down to them, the Lord’s anger will burn against you, and you will quickly perish from the good land He has given you (Joshua 23:16).
Thought for today: trust in God today and prepare for your tomorrow.
Thought for the future: no-one is more secure than those in God’s hands. Where will you spend your eternity?
