The Giant Battle with Fear

The Hebrew nation had come to the edge of the land of promise, a land given to them by God. But they retreated. They withdrew their forces. They evacuated. And for 40 years they wandered in the desert, defeated in their minds by an enemy that never fired a single shot or mounted a campaign against them.
Now 40 years later, the Hebrew nation and their leader, Joshua, were back on the brink of the Promised Land. Ready for retirement, no doubt Joshua was apprehensive about taking on a major military campaign against a formidable foe. This sermon will challenge you to put your faith into action, to live in the present rather than the past, and to recognize God and his power in your circumstances.
