Joshua: Meditations on the Book of Joshua

by H.L. Rossier

Originally Published in 1887The Book of Joshua gives us, in type, the subject of the Epistle to the Ephesians. The journey across the desert had come to an end, and the children of Israel had now to cross the Jordan led by a new guide, and to take possession of the land of promise, driving out the enemies who dwelt there. It is the same for us. The heavenly places are our Canaan, into which we enter by the power of the Spirit of God, who unites us to an ascended Christ, and seats us together in Him in the glory, so that thus we enjoy anticipatively this glory which He has acquired for Himself, into which He will introduce us, and which we shall share, ere long, with Him.

Solid devotional

I enjoyed reading something a little older, less contemporary. Rossier's view of joshua as a type of Jesus, and the constant pointing towards staying centered on Christ and his saving grace made this a solid devotional.
