- Joshua 1:8 This is the only place in the early English versions where the word “success” is found. The secret of success is given in verses 5 through 9. Joshua accepted Moses’ place of leadership without misgivings. God’s will for him was his will, and he did not hesitate. To go “all out” for God was already habitual with him; it is the unfailing prerequisite of eternal success (Deut. 6:3-5; Ps. 1:1-3; Luke 10:25-28).
Joshua 1:8
New International Version
8 Keep this Book of the Law(A) always on your lips;(B) meditate(C) on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful.(D)
