Joshua 19:8, Where we are weak, God is strong. Where we fear, God tells us to fear not. Many of God’s promises are to address our weaknesses, shortcomings, and fears. Sometimes we may have all we need to overcome adversity, but we get discourage and need encouragement from God. This was the case with Joshua.
