Holy vs. Sacred (Cows) - Joshua Leadership Principles

Joshua 3:4 Then you will know which way to go, since you have never been this way before. But keep a distance of about a thousand yards between you and the ark; do not go near it.” The Israelites are now ready to cross over into the Jordan. This was a very Big Day for them. It was one that they had to prepare for - 40 years in fact. There is a lesson here you may not want to learn. Don't cross over, don't start a new business, don't change the direction of your life until you have prepared to do so. But what does that mean? Does it mean that your processes eliminate all the risks? Never! But your processes should negate all unnecessary risks. Does it mean that the Big Day will go off without a hitch? You hope so, but be prepared to make changes on the fly. Does it mean that you will not be challenged in the future? Absolutely not. In fact you will be, without a doubt. The goal of the Big Day is to get you off on the right foot.
