Joshua's Legacy Of Prayer

Joshua said to the Lord in the presence of Israel:
"O sun, stand still over Gibeon, O moon, over the Valley of Aijalon." So the sun stood still, and the moon stopped, till the nation avenged itself on its enemies.(Joshua 10:12-13)
Joshua's audacios prayer, asking God to stop the sun and moon in their tracks so that he could win the battle, remind us of the startling words Jesus spoke to his disciples about the power of faith:"I tell you the truth, if anyone says to this mountain,'Go, throw yourself into the sea,' and does not doubt in his heart but believes that what ha says will happen, it will be done for him" (Mark 11-23). Because Joshua believed every word God spoke and because he acted on that faith, he became Israel's deliverer, leading God's people into all the good land the Lord has promised.
We ask the Father to give us a faith like Joshua's, so that We can fight the good fight of faith no matter what obstacles We may face.To use us to encourage others in their own battles as well. To help us to be strong and very courageous, remembering the God's promise that He will never leave us or forsake us.
