#soap # Joshua 13 ## Title: Finish Strong ## Scripture: (Joshua 13:1) When Joshua was very old, the Lord told him, “You are very old, and a great deal of land remains to be conquered. (NET) ## Observation: Joshua has been on a long journey. He began his life as a slave. He is coming to the end of his life as a conquering general. God visits him and acknowledges his age, yet says there is still purpose for him. One of the saddest things about great seasons is the let-down at the end. We can build ourselves up to make it to the top of the mountain only to realize life continues after the “big win.” The great thing about God is that He always has a good next step for us. Finish strong. ## Application: Don’t quit. Keep going. Finish strong. Stay faithful. ## Prayer: Thank You, Jesus, for helping us finish what we started.
