Be Strong and Courageous, Week 3 - No Fear!

Jan 17, 2016    Dale Oquist    Be Strong and Courageous

We are in our third week of BSAC (Be Strong and Courageous) series of messages. Four times in the first chapter of Joshua the phrase/command “Be strong and courageous” appears. The Israelites had every reason to be afraid as they were called to cross the Jordan River and possess the Promised Land. There was the danger of the crossing itself. But that did not compare to the fortified cities and the giant type people that awaited them on the other side. Regardless, the command was the same, BSAC. On Sunday, one of the questions Dale asked was: What is your Promised Land? What is the place of victory and blessing in your life? To get there will not be a matter of “trying” to do something. It will be a matter of our faith versus the fears that we face. We must Be Strong and Courageous so we can overcome fear, doubt and discouragement.
