Joshua Chapter 13
In chapter 13, Joshua draws near to the end of Life's Journey. Would it not be wonderful to be allowed to live a full life, and yet in our latter years, to still be strong, to have our natural forces about us, and to still see as a young man. Not many are granted this. Joshua was not young, and he did not have all of his forces still in tact. But even though he was not strong in body, The Lord did not desert him in his old age. And all of us who know Jesus as Lord and Savior, he will in no wise cast us out.

I. Joshua Draws Near to the End of Life's Journey
Josh 13:1 Now Joshua was old and stricken in years; and the LORD said unto him, Thou art old and stricken in years, and there remaineth yet very much land to be possessed.
We are told in verse 1 that Joshua was advanced in years and well stricken. It is a great blessing if God allows us to live to old age. Consider Moses when he became old.
Deu 34:1 And Moses went up from the plains of Moab unto the mountain of Nebo, to the top of Pisgah, that is over against Jericho. And the LORD showed him all the land of Gilead, unto Dan,
Deu 34:2 And all Naphtali, and the land of Ephraim, and Manasseh, and all the land of Judah, unto the utmost sea,
Deu 34:3 And the south, and the plain of the valley of Jericho, the city of palm trees, unto Zoar.
Deu 34:4 And the LORD said unto him, This is the land which I sware unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, saying, I will give it unto thy seed: I have caused thee to see it with thine eyes, but thou shalt not go over thither.
Deu 34:5 So Moses the servant of the LORD died there in the land of Moab, according to the word of the LORD.
Deu 34:6 And he buried him in a valley in the land of Moab, over against Bethpeor: but no man knoweth of his sepulchre unto this day.
Deu 34:7 And Moses was an hundred and twenty years old when he died: his eye was not dim, nor his natural force abated.
Would it not be wonderful to be allowed to live a full life, and yet in our latter years, to still be strong, to have our natural forces about us, and to still see as a young man. Not many are granted this. Joshua was not young, and he did not have all of his forces still in tact. But even though he was not strong in body, The Lord did not desert him in his old age. And all of us who know Jesus as Lord and Savior, he will in no wise cast us out.
