DAILY WISDOM “He that trusteth in his own heart is a fool: but whoso walketh wisely, he shall be delivered.” [Proverbs 28:26] FOOD FOR THOUGHT DO YOU SENSE THE PRESENCE OF THE LORD? Joshua 5:10-15 In everything we do, we should sense the presence of the Lord. Joshua meets Jesus in this passage. He is the true Captain. 1) God’s presence is found in the middle of the battle. Canaan is the place now where we are to live in God’s will. There are enemies and battles in the Promised Land. The Promised Land is not Heaven. 2) God’s presence is adequate for our protection and victory. The Captain has a great sword and wisdom. 3) God’s presence is for those who need it and may not be seen by others. He is manifest to those who need Him. 4) God’s presence is a natural place of worship. Worship happens in a situation where we place ourselves where only He can handle the problem. We need to direct our worship correctly. RELIGIOUS AWARENESS Do you understand the difference between the Christian faith [based off the Bible] and the “Christian” religion [based off man’s traditions]? The lost are looking for true born-again believers who are genuinely living for the Lord, not those who are religious. They have enough religion – they need Christ. Do they see Him living in us?
