This Book of the Law-6

Joshua 1:8 “This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.”
…From yesterday…
Beloved, I doff my cap for Moses. If you and I were told to replace him, we would be scared stiff as well!
I am sure part of the reason Joshua was scared was the thought of being the soldier, the priest and prophet, all put together.
Moses’ shoes were simply too big for Joshua to step into. I don’t envy him at all!
However, God knew all these; He knew He really needed to inflate Joshua with enough courage, but better still, He told Joshua Moses’ secret!
First, He told Joshua he was the secret behind Moses’ exploits:
Joshua 1:5 “There shall not any man be able to stand before thee all the days of thy life: as I was with Moses, [so] I will be with thee: I will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.”
He said his presence with Moses was what helped him. Joshua understood that, but he was still scared! On seeing that, God went ahead to further calm down his fears by telling him to be strong and courageous; then God told him something only Moses knew as of then, that is our focal scripture!
Joshua 1:8 “This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.”
God seemed to be saying, I was the one behind Moses and this is what I taught him that made him a success! If you can master it, you will be able to reproduce the same result, and even better!
God didn’t just say that to Joshua; he is saying the same thing to us as well! What he says to one he says to all.
To be continued…
