God enabled Joshua to lead the Israelites into Canaan through their obedience, but they soon fell into sin and had only a brief rest from warfare. Despite the odds, Joshua obeyed God and defeated many kings. God offers eternal rest to those who come to Jesus, who secured our salvation through His sacrifice on the Cross. His burden is easy and light.
God promises us rest and peace in faithful obedience to His Word. The challenge of the human heart is trust in those promises. We tend to think that we can find rest and fulfilment by doing the things we want to do and fear following God will bring us heartache and disappointment. How can we come to a place of trusting in the promises of God? Only through the goodness of God in the perfect obedience of His Son Jesus Christ.
No matter how much we like to think differently, we are insecure people. We are always worried about being forgotten or abandoned. This is true of all our relationships including God. We worry that God will not show up to help us and save us in our times of need. Joshua 10 tells us of a grace filled God who helps and saves even the most unworthy sinners just like us.
