And what wilt Thou do for Thy great name?..Joshua
7:9.
Joshua and his men had just lost a great battle.
The men of Ai had struck down about 36 of them and pursued them. Their
hearts melted with fear. Joshua recognized that he had no answers for
their defeat, other than they had proceeded without prayer. They had grown
overconfident in their own abilities. Oh, how I identify with this foolish
strategy. It seems we have this great tendency to rely upon self and to
ignore that the victory always belongs to the Lord.
Today, Lord Jesus, let me trust only in You. I
have no plans, no knowledge, and no grasp of what lies ahead. I can only
claim that You will do something this day for Your great name. Is that not
what You are all about? Everything needs to be laid at Your feet.
Thank You for Your love and mercy. Amen.
