Knowing God - He Will Magnify Us


Josh 3:7

And the Lord said unto Joshua, This day will I begin to magnify thee in the sight of all Israel, that they may know that, as I was with Moses, so I will be with thee.

The Lord tells Joshua that He will show His calling on his life through the crossing of the Jordan.  The Lord will confirm His calling on our lives as we lead and carry out those things He has asked us to do.  Sometimes people have a hard time accepting leadership.  We don’t need to defend ourselves or try to convince others that the Lord has called us.  We need to focus on walking in the calling He has for us.  In doing this, the Lord will magnify us in the sight of those that surround us.  It is not our place to commend ourselves.  The Lord will show that He is with us and we need to leave that to Him.  He is the One who calls us and it is His job to confirm our calling in others’ eyes.  Let’s get on with what He asks us to do and leave our reputation in His hands.
