Scripture:  Joshua 3:1-9; Joshua 3:15-16; Proverbs3:5-6; Matthew  6:33; Philippians 4:6-7; Joshua 1:6; Joshua 2:9-11; Romans 8:37-39

Speaker:  Scott Meyer

Summary: The sermon focuses on the theme of stepping out in faith to claim the promises of God. Scott begins by telling the story of a man who lost access to his cryptocurrency, using it as a metaphor for how we sometimes struggle to access what God has promised us. The sermon is centered around the Israelites entering the Promised Land in the book of Joshua, emphasizing that while God promised them the land, they had to take action, such as crossing the Jordan River and conquering Jericho, to claim it. The concept of "walking out the premise" is introduced, which means that in order to receive God's promises, we must take steps of faith. Scott also highlights Rahab's faith and how she grasped God's promise, leading to her significant role in biblical history, and concludes by encouraging listeners to trust in God's promises and be courageous in their battles.
