SEE THAT I COMMAND YOU TO STRIVE AND BE BRAVE
source
See that I command you to make an effort and be brave; do not fear or faint. Because Jehovah your God will be with you wherever you go. Josue 1: 9
This biblical text is the favorite of a large number of Christian preachers. Certainly God tells us to strive and be courageous because he will be with us wherever we go, but there is a nonnegotiable condition that we must fulfill and that which these preachers cut off and obviate. The text is very clear. Only strive and be very courageous, to take care to do according to all the law that my servant Moses commanded you; do not turn away from her or train her or sinister, so that you may prosper in all the things you undertake.
Never will this book of the law depart from your mouth but meditate day and night. Then you will make your way prosper, and all will be well. Joshua 1: 7,8 We should not get away from the law of Moses, these preachers do not. They justify themselves by believing to deceive God. The Most High is very clear in his demands.
The promises of God have always been conditional. They are always based on a covenant where God fulfills his part and expects Christians to fulfill also.
Many times we have to go through difficult times or situations and it takes away from us the focus or the goal that we have set to reach. It is a reality that these situations steal our breath, our courage, to continue and that is when we want to hang up our gloves, because we do not see an exit to the crisis or situations that we are going through.
