Courage and strengthStrength and help in weaknessObedienceAuthority and leadership

16 So they answered Joshua, “Everything you have commanded us we will do, and everywhere you send us we will go.

17 Just as we obeyed Moses in all things, so we will obey you. And may the LORD your God be with you, as He was with Moses.

Anyone who rebels against your order and does not obey your words, all that you command him, will be put to death. Above all, be strong and courageous!”
