God size answer

SUMMARY: Joshua was a man of prayer and trusted in God's promises. He knew that his victories were not a result of his leadership but of depending on the power of God. Joshua prayed confidently in the midst of combat, and God answered his prayer by making the sun and moon stand still. The church that prays and leaders who pray for the supernatural and extraordinary with humility and faith receive God-sized answers. The key is to put Jesus at the center, cry out for God's will, and trust in his power to do the impossible. Each day in Christ is a new opportunity to glorify God and worship Him in the midst of our battles.

Despite his stumbling blocks (what leader doesn't?), Joshua was a man of prayer who trusted the Lord's promises. I imagine Josué in the middle of the battles at a time when the sword of the adversary came upon him remembering the voice of the Lord encouraging him in a supernatural way: "Remember, I will not abandon you. This is my promise to the end. Just be brave and continue striving ".

No one is born a leader. The leader is made. There may be skills and attractions that point to certain leadership aptitudes, but it is character that defines leadership centered on the will of God. The church needs both men of charisma and men of character, but preferably the latter because they are the best candidates to lead others. Why? Because they give great importance to humility, because they know how to depend absolutely on the power of God for him to do His work of redemption and salvation. Joshua knew that the victories he left behind and the conquests of enemy territories by the sword were not a product of his obedient leadership, but of depending on the power of God.
