Under Gods Command
Joshua 4:14 That day the LORD exalted Joshua in the sight of all Israel, and they revered him all the days of his life, just as they had revered Moses.
The Israelites revered Joshua for his role in leading them across the Jordan River. He, like Moses, would receive Israel’s praise’s generation after generation. Although Israel was not a world power at that time, Joshua’s reputation for handling his responsibilities God’s way brought him greater glory than if he had been a hero in a “superpower” nation. Doing right is more important than doing well.
