Joshua accepts the mission

After Moses died, God personally called Joshua to take over the heavy responsibility of leading the Israelites. God encouraged Joshua three times to be strong and courageous, promising that wherever he went, God would be with him and would never leave him. Joshua immediately took action, telling the people to prepare food, and within three days they would cross the Jordan River into the promised land of Canaan. The warriors from the tribes of Reuben, Gad, and half of Manasseh also promised that although they had already received their inheritance east of the Jordan, they would lead the way in battle and help their brothers until all the people had rest. All the people replied together that they would obey Joshua's commands, just as they had obeyed Moses.
