"From the wilderness and this Lebanon even unto the great river, the river Euphrates, all the land of the Hittites, and unto the great sea toward the going down of the sun, shall be your coast.There shall not any man be able to stand before thee all the days of thy life: as I was with Moses, so I will be with thee: I will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.
Be strong and of a good courage : for unto this people shalt thou divide for an inheritance the land, which I sware unto their fathers to give them.
Only be thou strong and very courageous , that thou mayest observe to do according to all the law, which Moses my servant commanded thee: turn not from it to the right hand or to the left, that thou mayest prosper whithersoever thou goest .
This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous , and then thou shalt have good success .
Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage ; be not afraid , neither be thou dismayed : for the LORD thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest."
Joshua 1:4-9

CANAAN LAND (The Carnal)
It would'nt be appropriate for us to go any further unless we explain a little about this land that the Adonai (Lord) says we must conquer.
This land was chosen and hand picked by Elohiym (God) himself. And represents vast smaller territories that make up the whole land. The symbolics here are fascinating! This whole book representing a walk through a transformation unto holiness that only our Elohiym(God) could aquire and put together. What a glorious and inspiring Elohiym(God) we serve. For there is no greater force in the heavens or on the earth that could hide such knowledge within the archives of our universe and designated these things solely for his glory and our success. He will not fail! He would not fail! He could not fail! For the cost of this Salvation was dear to his heart. It came in the form of Adonai Jesus our Messiah.
In a literal aspect we see a people, a people whose lineage and geneology trace all the way back to Noah. Only these people take another course. The demo-graphics as we know it trace back to the very establishing of Babylon. It is here that the epidemic could be seen in full force. And from this epidemic called sin they suffer major consequences. Utter confusion (Babylon), confusion about Elohiym first and foremost which sets them on a path for destruction and ultimately ruin if he would not intercede.
Many don't realize the devistating effects of this epidemic, and because we all seem to bare it, it very well may have become a norm. But Halleluyah! Here in the book of the one called Salvation we see wonderful remedies established in the pharmacy of heaven. Lets couragely continue our course! But first,,, what does Canaan represent?
"There shall not any man be able to stand before thee all the days of thy life: as I was with Moses, so I will be with thee: I will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.
Be strong and of a good courage : for unto this people shalt thou divide for an inheritance the land, which I sware unto their fathers to give them." Joshua 1:5-6
Canaan -- meaning: (materialism, trader, merchant)
The land of Canaan is, in fact, the "land" (reality) of the carnal mind or nature. It is the nature of the carnal mind to focus on materialism. It is the trader and merchant of all of its "things" (and the carnal mind incorporates into its reality many, many "things"). It is also the merchant and trader of all of these "things," which also carries with it an awful lot of baggage. It is the carnal "self."
Canaan is the place! Its territorial, its self motivated, it's egotistical. This is self without the unity of Elohiym (God). All the things we gained in the world in order to survive. Self dependency has to be killed and thrown out. As we said all these areas are not just some fluke, they were especially picked out. Keep this in mind as we watch salvation set out to conquer these areas but first some further lessons to be learned,,,,
We are to know our enemies! We may think we are just dealing with the devil, but most of the time Self is your greatest foe! In order for this conquest to continue realizing that our father Adam may have passed something unto us that when looking at the Adonai (Lord), we can't pass blame, we must see our "self".
But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members. Romans 7:23
Look at Canaan as a continent. In the continent there are great areas called states, and within these states are cities. And this takes us right to where we left off. What area's have to be affected the most before the whole continent can be restored? Dealing with just the cities will give us minimal results. But you conquer a whole state at a time? You cover alot of territory quickly. Our state in our intellect is known as our "soul"
SALVATION FOR THE SOUL
Soul-(hebrew)-Nephesh=
soul, self, life, creature, person, appetite, mind, living being, desire, emotion, passion
that which breathes, the breathing substance or being, soul, the inner being of man
living being
living being (with life in the blood)
the man himself, self, person or individual
seat of the appetites
seat of emotions and passions
activity of mind
dubious
activity of the will
dubious
activity of the character
dubious
"Then the LORD God formed man of dust from the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life ; and man became a living being (nephesh)." Genesis 2:7
Soul-(greek)-Psuche=breath
the breath of life
the vital force which animates the body and shows itself in breathing 1a
of animals 1a
of men
life
that in which there is life
a living being, a living soul
the soul
the seat of the feelings, desires, affections, aversions (our heart, soul etc.)
the (human) soul in so far as it is constituted that by the right use of the aids offered it by God it can attain its highest end and secure eternal blessedness, the soul regarded as a moral being designed for everlasting life
the soul as an essence which differs from the body and is not dissolved by death (distinguished from other parts of the body)
"Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind." Matthew 24:37
(So visualize our whole bodies as the land (continent), our heart or mind is the city and our soul is the state. Each state has a governing seat (our emotions).
And the multitude of them that believed were of one heart and of one soul: neither said any of them that ought of the things which he possessed was his own; but they had all things common. Acts 4:32
"Confirming the souls of the disciples, and exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that we must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God." Acts 14:22
"And cinnamon, and odours, and ointments, and frankincense, and wine, and oil, and fine flour, and wheat, and beasts, and sheep, and horses, and chariots, and slaves, and souls of men. 14 And the fruits that thy soul lusted after are departed from thee, and all things which were dainty and goodly are departed from thee, and thou shalt find them no more at all." Revelations 18:13-14
"And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image , neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years." Revelations 20:4
Therefore the redemption is of the very precious thing that the Elohiym (God) blew into us. The thing that sets us apart from every other creature. This takes us right back to the beginning, the fruit that our parents digested got into our souls. This area, this "state" belongs and should only belong to the one it came from. And thank him that he was'nt about to just give it up without a fight.
The soul is said to be the seat of our emotions,,, don't confuse emotion with feeling! Feelings are just the results of the emotions. Love is an emotion that brings on many feelings,,,, Love the Adonai thy Elohiym (God) with all thy heart, with all thy soul and all thy mind. It was all Elohiyms to begin with and it'll all be his to end with. Salvation is for the soul.
The root word for the word Nephesh (soul) is the word Napach which in the hebrew means to be "refreshed".
"It is a sign between Me and the sons of Israel forever ; for in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, but on the seventh day He ceased from labor, and was refreshed." Exodus 31:17
"The king and all the people who were with him arrived weary and he refreshed himself there." 2 Samuel 16:14
Why do we need refreshing? We were in bondage in sin, we labored hard and long. We toiled and never saw an end to our suffering. We were wounded and beaten. We lacked daily nutrients and dwelt in famine. Sin is hard hard work! But Halleluyah the Adonai had a plan for our souls, a great refreshing, a wonderful restoration of peace and joy within the confine of our own being, where he himself would come and dwell and once again become the divine architect that he is. He would restore the barren places and heal all the wounds. He would set us on a new course, only if we could see! Our Salvation no longer draweth nigh. IT'S HERE!!! It came at the cost of a beautiful being and at the curse of an old wooden cross. Elohiym (God) in the form of a man would himself suffer for the epidemic of his people and every living soul, that he breathed the breath of life would be granted the wonderful opportunity to take a walk with him, on a new highway called "SALVATION".
The course is set, the foundation lain, so from now on as we travel this journey together through the land of Canaan, through Yahoshua (Salvation), verse for verse, may we be granted wisdom from on high, and be refreshed in our SOULS, this precious commodity whose cost was flesh and blood! Halleluyah and AMEN!
The voice of him that crieth in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the LORD, make straight in the desert a highway for our God.
And it will be said, "Build up, build up, prepare the way, Remove every obstacle out of the way of My people." Isaiah 57:14
Go through, go through the gates, Clear the way for the people ; Build up, build up the highway, Remove the stones, lift up a standard over the peoples. Isaiah 62:10
