Moses is dead

The book of Joshua has a very interesting start. God speaks to Josh and is very matter of fact. Moses is dead (boom) and this is what you now need to do next and what I am going to do for you.

 

The starting point is "Moses is dead". From there, promises are made and prophetic vision given and confirmed. In our lives we often hang around and bemoan the dead, for weeks, months or years. God is saying to you today: recognize what is "dead" and move on, to the "better life" I have for you. There are things (and possibly people) that are not going forward into the new season with you. Deal with it, do business with God if you need to. Then get your marching orders and go and conquer what God has set aside for you. Don't tarry to long.

After Moses the Lord’s servant died, the Lord spoke to Joshua, Nun’s son. He had been Moses’ helper. 2 “My servant Moses is dead. Now get ready to cross over the Jordan with this entire people to the land that I am going to give to the Israelites. 3 I am giving you every place where you set foot, exactly as I promised Moses. 4 Your territory will stretch from the desert and the Lebanon as far as the great Euphrates River, including all Hittite land, up to the Mediterranean Sea on the west. 5 No one will be able to stand up against you during your lifetime. I will be with you in the same way I was with Moses. I won’t desert you or leave you. 6 Be brave and strong, because you are the one who will help this people take possession of the land, which I pledged to give to their ancestors. Josh 1:1-6

I will go before you and level the mountains [to make the crooked places straight]; I will break in pieces the doors of bronze and cut asunder the bars of iron. Is 45:2
