Pray the word with David Platt as a resource from Radical.net.

Remember the last time they did this, and the report came back, this land is full of big people that we could never overtake, and we can't go in there, even though God had promised it to them, and they turned back, rebelled against them in an entire generation, died in the wilderness, and now a new generation is on the scene, and they go into the land, and they see it, and they come back, and they report to Joshua, truly the Lord has

given all the land into our hands. In other words, we believe God. We are trusting God to lead us, as He has promised He would lead us.

Is that not a good word? What happens when God's people trust Him, to lead them, as He has promised He would lead them?

And even this picture, the Lord has given all the land into our hands. The reality is God owns that land. They know it, and they know that the only way they can take it is if God gives it to them. In the same way you and I should know, God owns all things, which means anything good we ever receive that we ever have is given to us by His hand.

And all of this then leads us to pray, God, help us today to take you at your word. In all that you're calling us to do according to your word, the leadership of your spirit, help us to boldly step into what you are calling us to without fear, with humility before you, with trust in you, with whole-hearted Caleb-like, Joshua-like, trust in you, and God help us as your people.

To trust your promises, your plans, your purposes, and God not to shrink back from all that you are calling us to.

Especially when we think about the mission you've given us in this world to make disciples of all the nations, God help us to step fully into this mission.

To go into all the lands and to all the places that you've called us to go, starting right around us, God help us to go into our cities, our neighborhoods, our communities proclaiming the good news of your love, and God repaid that many people around us would come to know your love, God help us to spread the gospel, make disciples right where we live.

And God help us not to stop there, help us to keep going into all the lands and all the nations to the nosu of East Asia.

God, I think about this people group where I've been a part of trying to spread the gospel there and taking the good news of your love there, God repaid for the spread of the gospel to more and more nosu people.

God, we pray that you would help us as your church to go into all the lands trusting you to fulfill your plan, your purposes according to your promises. God give us faith like we read about here in Joshua chapter 2 verse 24.

We pray this in Jesus name and the name of the one who leads and guides and directs us as the church in Jesus name we pray. Amen.

you
