No One Can Stand Against Us

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Oct 16, 2025

God was with Joshua just as He was with Moses. God blessed Joshua and made him a great leader because of the qualities God saw and approved in him. If we live the way Joshua did and God is for us, no one can stand against us too all the days of our lives.

For our meditation today we will look at Joshua 1:5, “No man shall be able to stand before you all the days of your life. Just as I was with Moses, so I will be with you. I will not leave you or forsake you.” (ESV) These are the words of God to Joshua. The Lord told Joshua that no one would be ...read more

Running Your Race

Contributed by Derek Geldart on Oct 25, 2025

“Running Your Race” calls believers to reject comparison and discouragement, embrace their God-given lane with faithfulness and joy, and keep their eyes fixed on Jesus—the One who empowers, sustains, and rewards every step of the journey.

Running Your Race I remember the first time I attended a large Christian conference. Though we all shared a love for the Lord and His Word, this “unknown” attendee quietly wondered if anyone could see past the mask of confidence—past the polished smiles and ministry talk—to the ...read more
