Our text today is Judges 1:1-2:

"After the death of Joshua, the people of Israel inquired of the Lord, 'Who shall go up first for us against the Canaanites, to fight against them?' The Lord said, 'Judah shall go up; behold, I have given the land into his hand.'" — Judges 1:1-2

The book opens in a moment of loss. Joshua is gone. The strong leader. The voice of God’s direction. The man who filled Moses’ sandals and led battles with divine clarity. Now? Silence. No commander. No plan. Just questions.

But the people do something right—they ask God. And he answers.

"Judah shall go up; behold, I have given the land into his hand."

Notice that God doesn’t give them a detailed strategy. He just tells them who goes first. And that was enough. Judah. The tribe whose name means praise. The tribe from which kings would come. And eventually—Jesus.

Notice God’s tense in the statement: "I have given." Not will give. He speaks with certainty. It's the assumptive sale! That’s the language of divine sovereignty. Faith isn’t based on circumstance—it’s based on God’s character.

But here’s the rub: Inquiring is easy. Hearing is easy. Obeying is hard.

You’ve probably asked God for direction lately. Maybe about your job, your marriage, your next move. You’ve prayed, and maybe you’ve even sensed what God's telling you. But have you moved?

God isn’t asking for your full understanding. He’s asking for your next step. Obedience doesn’t require a detailed map—just faith in the One giving the directions.

Take one small step forward today, even if it’s just that—small. With God, the land and the territory have already been given.

ASK THIS:

Where do I feel unsure about my next step?
Have I truly asked God, or just tried to figure it out on my own?
What’s something God has already spoken that I’m hesitating to obey?
What would faith look like in motion today?
DO THIS:

Take one obedient step today in the direction God has already spoken.

PRAY THIS:
Father, thank you for leading even when I feel uncertain. Help me trust your voice and act on what you’ve already said. Amen

PLAY THIS:
"Same God."
