Joshua 23 - Worship the God Who Blesses You

It is almost time for Joshua's journey on this earth to be completely over.  His own eyes have seen how the LORD God has delivered the people and has given to them to good land that He had promised.  But, not it is time for his life to be over and he warns the people not to be straying and following after other Gods.  Joshua warns them not to be unfaithful to the one who has been so good to them.

A good warning to all of us.  There are days I want to just to say:  "Would you cut it out, already!  There is one God.  Quit following after false gods - gods that are leading you astray - gods that will take the land from you - gods that will take everything you have and keep you from prospering, keep you from knowing peace.  Please, cut it out for your sake - for all of our sakes - for the sake of the land.  Cut it out!  There is only one God.  Worship Him.  Seek first His Kingdom and then you will know peace - then you will know joy.  Repent already, turn around, for the kingdom of God is at hand!
