Only at the end of his days does Joshua make a specific reference to the declaration of the Name of God, when he speaks of "Jehovah ... a holy God ... a jealous God". Yet Moses' comment upon Joshua: "I will set him on high, because he hath known my name" (Ps. 91:14) implies that the Father foresaw Joshua's future spiritual attainment and treated him accordingly. We likewise need to remember this in coping with the spiritual immaturity of our brethren. Moses considered that Joshua would "say of Jehovah, He is my refuge and my fortress; My God, in whom I trust" (Ps. 91:2). And yet only twice does Joshua use the phrase "my God" or "my Lord". Again, it seems that Moses is imputing to Joshua a higher level of intimacy with God than he actually achieved.
