  1. Are you a Worrier or a Warrior?

  2. Remember the Warriors

  3. Joshua 7: 4 – 9 “So about three thousand men went up there from the people. And they fled before the men of Ai, and the men of Ai killed about thirty-six of their men and chased them before the gate as far as Shebarim and struck them at the descent. And the hearts of the people melted and became as water. Then Joshua tore his clothes and fell to the earth on his face before the ark of the LORD until the evening, he and the elders of Israel. And they put dust on their heads. And Joshua said, “Alas, O Lord God, why have you brought this people over the Jordan at all, to give us into the hands of the Amorites to destroy us? Would that we had been content to dwell beyond the Jordan!”

  4. “O Lord, what can I say, when Israel has turned their backs before their enemies! For the Canaanites and all the inhabitants of the land will hear of it and will surround us and cut off our name from the earth. And what will you do for your great name?”

  5. We will fail in obedience to God at one time or another

  6. Joshua 7: 10 – 12 “The LORD said to Joshua, “Get up! Why have you fallen on your face? Israel has sinned; they have transgressed my covenant that I commanded them; they have taken some of the devoted things; they have stolen and lied and put among their own belongings. Therefore the people of Israel cannot stand before their enemies. They turn their backs before their enemies, because they have become devoted for destruction. I will be with you no more, unless you destroy the devoted things from among you.”

  7. When you fall, remember: the warrior will get up!

  8. When you identify the problem, don’t linger.

  9. We must move forward in obedience, even when it’s not easy.

  10. Joshua 8: 1 “And the LORD said to Joshua, “Do not fear and do not be dismayed. Take all the fighting men with you and arise, go up to Ai. See, I have given into your hand the king of Ai, and his people, and his city, and his land.”

  11. What can Joshua teach us? Moving from being a Worrier to a Warrior!

  12. We can’t conquer our battles on our own! All of us fight, but worriers fight themselves and warriors fight the problem.

  13. We must rest in God’s promises. Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with you with my righteous right hand.- Isaiah 41:10

  14. We are NOT alone. Surround yourself with a fire team of believers that have your back.

  15. Obedience leads to victory!

  16. You will fail… But God gives you the strength to get back up. You were made to be a warrior and not a worrier.
