Aim: To grasp and emulate the qualities of a true, godly leader.
Exegesis: The leader as a man of action: he must rally (v. 10) and situate (vv. 11-13a) the troops. The leader as a man of prayer: this is often done in times of stress, in solitude, and in intercession (v. 13b). The leader as a man of faith: he entrusts all to God's designs (v. 14) and power (vv. 15-17). The leader as a man of obedience: he listens to God's word (v. 18) and God's people (v. 19).
Key verse: v. 10 ''Then Joshua rose up early in the morning and mustered the people, and went up, he and the elders of Israel, before the people of Ai.''
