God told Joshua, "Arise and cross the River Jordan with the Israelites to the land I am giving them." (Joshua 1:2)
However we see that even though He had given them the Promised Land, they had to fight many battles to posses it.
Therefore understand that even though God has given you something through the promises in the Bible, you may still have to fight spiritually to possess it and make it a reality in your life.
To fight these spiritual battles so that you can possess the Promises of God you have to put on the armor of God (Ephesians 6) which consists of:
1. Salvation (Get saved by saying with your mouth that "Jesus is Lord" and believing in your heart that when He died for our sins, God raised Him from the dead and you will be saved. {Romans 10:9})
2. Righteousness (Do the right thing in the sight of God at all times)
3. Truth (Speak the truth at all times)
4. Gospel (Read the Bible)
5. Word of God (Speak Scriptures over your situation)
6. Faith (Believe God's Word) For instance you may have to fight with faith by simply believing what God has told you in His Word even if the world and your reality tell you that it is impossible.
Therefore, do not be afraid of fighting and taking your Promised Land by spiritual force.
