“Past counsel with Moses had made him familiar with God’s way and will. Past victories had given him confidence in God. Past communications from God had pointed to his leadership. Thus, forty years before, ‘Rehearse it in the ears of Joshua.’ (Ex. 17:14.) Joshua was equally prepared in the minds of the people.” (Page 3)

“II. God’s plans are, sometimes, best advanced by the removal of men who have been eminently useful.” (Page 4)

“The occasion of our forgetfulness is often found in the pressure of earthly duties” (Page 56)

“You may be only as Joshua, who was simply a liberated slave, with ‘good parts’ about him. Work on, for you may succeed where better men fail. 2. But let not him who happens to be working in the hour of success forget the labour of his predecessors. Joshua’s work was simply the harvesting; the tilling and sowing and weeding had been arduously completed by Moses.” (Page 4)

“That no man is necessary to God. 2. That the work of the godly man is not suffered to collapse. Such workers are not like children in the winter, engaged in making mere snow men, which the first sun shall melt away for ever. He who labours within the scheme of God’s purpose, necessarily works for immortality.” (Page 4)
