Deuteronomy 32:19

In Deuteronomy 29-32, Moses revisited the covenant with the Israelites at Moab, just before they enter the Promised Land. In these three chapters, he addressed the subtle danger of spiritual drift, urging God's people to identify "hidden roots" of pride and modern idolatry that often flourish during seasons of prosperity. Through the lens of Moses' final song and the transition of leadership to Joshua, this devotion highlights a sovereign God who is both "Great and Good"—one who remains a constant anchor through life's transitions and is uniquely moved by our deepest weaknesses.

This devotional delves into the truths of the book of Joshua, which will help us stand in the most challenging spiritual battles against the world, the flesh, and the devil. Using the fearless leader Joshua as an example, we will learn how to endure the spiritual battle with a hostile and fierce world and emerge victorious. We are called to fight until victory!

As we enter the Christmas season, we are all eager to celebrate the birth of Jesus, the point in history where God descended into humanity to bring life to a broken world. Each day leading up to Christmas, we will provide an overview of the biblical significance of a location in Israel, along with a devotional prompt that will connect that location with the life of Jesus in Scripture.
