The book of Joshua begins, 'Moses, My servant, is dead.' Did you ever wonder why God had to tell Joshua that in the first place? It was through Moses that some of the most glorious events took place: the judgments of Egypt, the Passover, the parting of the Red Sea, and the giving of the Ten Commandments. It would be easy for the children of Israel, even for Joshua to long for the days of Moses. So by telling Joshua that Moses was dead, God was saying this: 'Don't long for the days of Moses. I am alive and I am with you.' So you were once strong or beautiful or you had all the time in the world. And now that's all gone. Who cares? Not God. That's all in the past. And the Spirit is saying 'Moses is dead.' Stop looking back. Stop looking for the past. God is not there. God is here and now. Now is the day of salvation. Now is the day of His presence. Now is the day of the miracles He has yet to do in your life. Now get moving. You have a Jordan to cross.
From Message #609 - Moses Is Dead
Today seek to not ponder or dwell on anything from the past. But seek instead to look forward to the miracles and blessings that are ahead of you.
