Leaving nothing undone

Just as the Lord had commanded his servant Moses, Moses commanded Joshua. That is what Joshua did, leaving nothing undone of all that the Lord had commanded Moses. (Joshua 11:15)

There are several famous verses in the book of Joshua, including chapter 1, verses 5-9, and chapter 24, verse 15.

But this is also one of my favorites. “Joshua left nothing undone of all that the Lord commanded.”

I want to be that way too. Especially when it comes to sin.

I don’t want to make excuses for my sins. I don’t want to treat them lightly. I want to wipe them out as thoroughly as Joshua and the Israelites wiped out the Canaanites and their evil from the land. (See Leviticus 18, especially verses 24-25).

Father, help me to do just that. Let me leave nothing undone of all that you command.
