// READ Joshua 5:13-15 //

¹³ Now when Joshua was near Jericho, he looked up and saw a man standing in front of him with a drawn sword in his hand. Joshua went up to him and asked, “Are you for us or for our enemies?”

¹⁴ “Neither,” he replied, “but as commander of the army of the Lord I have now come.” Then Joshua fell facedown to the ground in reverence, and asked him, “What message does my Lord^[a] have for his servant?”

¹⁵ The commander of the Lord’s army replied, “Take off your sandals, for the place where you are standing is holy.” And Joshua did so.

MEDITATION:

For a man to win in the battle of life there is a need to understand the following:

1. God takes instructional approach instead of relational approach; neither friend nor foe, when it comes to battle of life you should see God coming as your instructor not in relationship of friendship or that of the enemy. This is the understanding the heavens want Joshua to have in this place. His instructions will be for you assistance.

Prayer: Pray about this.
