COT:
All prayers said and unsaid.

“Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.”
— Joshua 1:9 (NIV)

Reflection:
Sometimes leadership means standing firm when others waver, holding to your values when they’re not popular, and carrying a vision when few understand it. Joshua was called to lead the Israelites into the Promised Land — a massive task that required courage to stand alone at times, but he was reminded that he was never truly alone because God was with him.

Leadership Takeaway:
Great leaders are willing to stand alone for what is right, but they draw strength from knowing they are supported by a greater purpose and presence. Be courageous enough to stand firm in your convictions; your consistency and courage will inspire others to stand with you in time.
