Joshua asked God to cause the sun and the moon to stand still (in the language of appearance). This was achieved by stopping the earth's rotation.

Where did Joshua son of nun get his courage?

In Joshua 1:1-9 God encouraged Joshua. God spoke directly to Joshua encouraging him to enter the promise land with the people of Israel. The words that God used were - "I will give you every place where you set your foot", "No one will be able to stand up against you", "As I was with Moses so I will be with you", "Be strong and courageous because you will lead these people to inerit the land I swore to their forefathers to give them". There were more encouraging words that God used to speak to Joshua so that he would have courage. The question I ask is why did God use these words? God chose His words carefully before speaking to Joshua. God would only use such words if He knew that Joshua needed it. Maybe Joshua was not sure of the task ahead? But the bible shows us that God encouraged Joshua. It is amazing how much God knows us and understands us. God knew what was going through the mind of Joshua. So God encouraged him. If there was anywhere that Joshua must have found courage it was in Joshua chapter 1 when God encouraged him. In verse 10 after God had encoraged Joshua - the bible tells us that Joshua got up and told the leaders of Israel to get ready for in three days time they would cross the Jordan river and take possession of the promised land. After God had encouraged Joshua - Joshua had the courage to cross over and take possession of the promise land. God gave Joshua courage.

What is the signifance of the prophecy of Joshua on the sign of the rain by Joshua in the bible during the draught and famine in Israel?

It purports the children of God that live by faith that if we trust the Lord for what we ask Him, it shall come to pass. Since faith is the substance of things hope for, the evidence of things not seen. The children of Israel were very distressed and hopeless until Prophet Joshua spoke and prophecy into their lives, things started to change. Joshua believed in His God and God testified to it and He brought rain in the land to quash their their hopes that was down by bringing to pass the prophecy of Joshua. Joshua being a man of God, saw the sign of the rainbow which was very significant evidence of rain.
