In this sermon from Joshua 1, we see God calling Joshua and the new generation of Israel to cross the Jordan River and take possession of the land He promised centuries earlier. The lesson is clear: God’s promises are certain, but receiving them requires courageous faith, obedience to His Word, and a willingness to step into the unknown. Drawing from Israel’s history, New Testament truths, and real-life applications, this sermon challenges us to stop settling for a fraction of what God offers. Whether it’s peace, joy, love, or purpose, God has already said “yes” to every spiritual blessing in Christ — but we must walk in them. Like Joshua, we face our own “Jordan Rivers” that test our trust and commitment. Will we remain in the wilderness, or will we step forward in strength, courage, and obedience to claim the fullness of what God has prepared?
