SAME LORD, DIFFERENT PEOPLE

                                           Joshua 1:1-2                                                       

Pastor Rick Jackson

I. THE MAN MOSES

1. He was a Sinner Saved by Grace [Dt. 32:48-52, Heb. 11:24-29]

2. He had a Strange Death [Dt. 34:4-7]

3. He had a Unique Ministry [Dt. 34:10-12]

II. THE MAN JOSHUA

1. He had the same Spirit of God as Moses [Dt. 34:9]

2. He had a Specific Will of God for His Life [Josh. 1:1-4]

3. He had the Promise of God's Presence [Josh. 1:5, Hebrews 13:5]

III. THE PERSONS WE OUGHT BE [Josh. 1]

1. Be Faithful [v. 7]

2. Be Biblical [v. 8, Galatians 5:1]

Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.

Galatians 5:13 For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another.

James 1:25 But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.

3. Be Encouraged [v. 9]

Will YOU rise to the challenge and be the person God wants you to be? Will you stand in the gap [Ezekiel 22:30]?
