1 # Now after <0310> the death <04194> of Moses <04872> the servant <05650> of the LORD <03068> it came to pass, that the LORD <03068> spake <0559> (8799) unto Joshua <03091> the son <01121> of Nun <05126>, Moses <04872>' minister <08334> (8764), saying <0559> (8800),
Joshua had learned from Moses how to hear from God. So God could speak to him directly
2 Moses <04872> my servant <05650> is dead <04191> (8804); now therefore arise <06965> (8798), go over <05674> (8798) this Jordan <03383>, thou, and all this people <05971>, unto the land <0776> which I do give <05414> (8802) to them, even to the children <01121> of Israel <03478>.
3 Every place <04725> that the sole <03709> of your foot <07272> shall tread upon <01869> (8799), that have I given <05414> (8804) unto you, as I said <01696> (8765) unto Moses <04872>.
God had already given them the land.but until they put their feet on it it was not yet in their possession. This principle applies to all of God’s blessings and promises. God will always do His part, but we also have a part to play.

4 From the wilderness <04057> and this Lebanon <03844> even unto the great <01419> river <05104>, the river <05104> Euphrates <06578>, all the land <0776> of the Hittites <02850>, and unto the great <01419> sea <03220> toward the going down <03996> of the sun <08121>, shall be your coast <01366>.
5 There shall not any man <0376> be able to stand <03320> (8691) before <06440> thee all the days <03117> of thy life <02416>: as I was with Moses <04872>, so I will be with thee: I will not fail <07503> (8686) thee, nor forsake <05800> (8799) thee.
Here again there is a promise of victory. But it can only be experienced by going out with Him to cover us. God did not promise to fight the enemy in his place. But He promised to go with him to enable him to win every time
6 Be strong <02388> (8798) and of a good courage <0553> (8798): for unto this people <05971> shalt thou divide for an inheritance <05157> (8686) the land <0776>, which I sware <07650> (8738) unto their fathers <01> to give <05414> (8800) them.
7 Only be thou strong <02388> (8798) and very <03966> courageous <0553> (8798), that thou mayest observe <08104> (8800) to do <06213> (8800) according to all the law <08451>, which Moses <04872> my servant <05650> commanded <06680> (8765) thee: turn <05493> (8799) not from it to the right hand <03225> or to the left <08040>, that thou mayest prosper <07919> (8686) whithersoever thou goest <03212> (8799).
8 This book <05612> of the law <08451> shall not depart <04185> (8799) out of thy mouth <06310>; but thou shalt meditate <01897> (8804) therein day <03119> and night <03915>, that thou mayest observe <08104> (8799) to do <06213> (8800) according to all that is written <03789> (8803) therein: for then thou shalt make <06743> <00> thy way <01870> prosperous <06743> (8686), and then thou shalt have good success <07919> (8686).
The process of meditation involves speech. Meditate literally means to mutter or speak out loud. It also involves forming pictures in the mind. This is very easy to do while speaking.
Doing this often results in faith being created in the heart. And faith always brings prosperity and success. It also produces wisdom coming up from the spirit within.

12 And to the Reubenites <07206>, and to the Gadites <01425>, and to half <02677> the tribe <07626> of Manasseh <04519> , spake <0559> (8804) Joshua <03091>, saying <0559> (8800),

14 Your wives <0802>, your little ones <02945>, and your cattle <04735>, shall remain <03427> (8799) in the land <0776> which Moses <04872> gave <05414> (8804) you on this side <05676> Jordan <03383>; but ye shall pass <05674> (8799) before <06440> your brethren <0251> armed <02571>, all the mighty <01368> men of valour <02428>, and help <05826> (8804) them;
15 Until the LORD <03068> have given <05117> <00> your brethren <0251> rest <05117> (8686), as he hath given you, and they also have possessed <03423> (8804) the land <0776> which the LORD <03068> your God <0430> giveth <05414> (8802) them: then ye shall return <07725> (8804) unto the land <0776> of your possession <03425>, and enjoy <03423> (8804) it, which Moses <04872> the LORD'S <03068> servant <05650> gave <05414> (8804) you on this side <05676> Jordan <03383> toward the sunrising <04217> <08121>.
16 # And they answered <06030> (8799) Joshua <03091>, saying <0559> (8800), All that thou commandest <06680> (8765) us we will do <06213> (8799), and whithersoever <0834> thou sendest <07971> (8799) us, we will go <03212> (8799).
17 According as we hearkened <08085> (8804) unto Moses <04872> in all things, so will we hearken <08085> (8799) unto thee: only the LORD <03068> thy God <0430> be with thee, as he was with Moses <04872>.
18 Whosoever <0376> he be that doth rebel <04784> (8686) against thy commandment <06310>, and will not hearken <08085> (8799) unto thy words <01697> in all that thou commandest <06680> (8762) him, he shall be put to death <04191> (8714) : only be strong <02388> (8798) and of a good courage <0553> (8798).
