Joshua 5, Psalm 9:1-10, Prov 3:1-4
Joshua was obedient.
v.12 - the manna ceased because they were positioned for permanent blessing
v.6 - " a land flowing with milk & honey"
v.15 - The army commander of the Lord (Prince of the Lord's host) told Joshua to take off his sandals for the place where he stood was holy ground (compare Exodus 3:5)
Host = angelic army. Lord of the Hosts = God of the angelic armies.
King of Glory (Psalm 24:10)
Old custom of Israel - removing sandal is a part of an official matter taking place (Ruth 4:7)
what followed? Moses - Israel's deliverance, Joshua - Jericho
(I am sure that it takes more than us taking off our Grosby's to be successful, or does it (metaphorically)?)
OBEDIENCE TO GOD = SUCCESS (more obedience equations below)
Psalm 9:1-10 Declare this just as David did. Say it out loud.

Luke 11:10 - He who seeks finds.
