Moses my servant is dead. Now therefore arise, go over this Jordan, you and all this people, into the land that I am giving to them, to the people of Israel. Joshua 1:2
D.L. MOODYWe need the courage that will compel us to move forward. We may have to go against the advice of lukewarm Christians; there are some who never seem to do anything but object because the work is not carried on exactly according to their ideas. They are very fruitful in raising objections to any plans that can be suggested. If any onward step is taken, …

One man of you puts to flight a thousand. Joshua 23:10
D.L. MOODYWhen in Glasgow, a friend was telling me about a man who was preaching one Sabbath morning on Shamgar. He said: “I can imagine that when he was ploughing in the field, a man came running over the hill all out of breath and shouted: ‘Shamgar! Shamgar! There are six hundred Philistines coming toward you.’ Shamgar quietly said: ‘You pass on; I can take care of them, they are four hundred short.’ So he took an ox goad and slew the whole of them. He routed them …

What means these stones? —Joshua 4:21
Ye also as living stones. —1 Peter 2:5
There should be something so remarkable, so peculiar about the life and conversation of a Christian that men should be compelled to ask, “What does this mean?”…Is there anything in your character, words, and habits of life so different from the world around you that men are involuntarily compelled to ask themselves or others, “What does this mean?” Not that there is to be a forced singularity, a peculiarity for the sake of being peculiar; that were merely …

Good sense wins favor, but the way of the treacherous is their ruin. Proverbs 13:15
D.L. MOODYDo you mean to say that God is a hard master? That it is a hard thing to serve God, that Satan is an easy master, and that it is easier to serve him than God? If I read my Bible right, I read that the way of transgressors is hard. It is the devil who is the hard master. If you doubt it, young man, look at the convict in the prison, right in the bloom of manhood, right in the …

Joseph of Arimathea, a respected member of the council, who was also himself looking for the kingdom of God, took courage and went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. Mark 15:43
D.L. MOODYI consider this one of the sublimest, grandest acts any man ever did. In the darkness and gloom, His disciples having all forsaken Him, Judas having sold Him for thirty pieces of silver, the chief apostle Peter having denied Him, the chief priests having found Him guilty of blasphemy, the council having condemned Him to death, and when there was a hiss going up …

As captain of the host of the LORD am I now come. —Joshua 5:14
Surely Israel might now face the foe with unwavering confidence, and sing of victory even before the battle was gained. And so may the Christian. It is to no conflict of uncertain issue that he advances; the result of the battle is not doubtful. The struggle may be severe, the warfare long; he may sometimes, like the pilgrim, be beaten to the ground, and well-nigh lose his sword; but “though cast down” he is “not destroyed.” The Captain of salvation is on his side, …
