Trusting God through every season, prayer, and the daily walk of worship.
Many times we limit ourselves. Limiting yourself is cursing yourself. While your goals must be realistic, they must be very high. While reality may inform you to be limited, faith should bolster you to the highest goals possible. With faith in God, everything is possible. Do not limit yourself!
When God doesn’t make sense, just trust Him. It is never obvious how God would act and conduct Himself with us, it takes faith. God will not work with your speed. God will not match your anxieties. God will not be pressured by your pressure. Yet God will always be on time and acting in your best interest. It is not obvious, it takes faith.
Is it possible that God is waiting for you to advance in that business? To take the step and start doing it? Is it possible that God is waiting for you to approach that potential partner then He does the rest? Is it possible God is waiting for you to enroll in school and start classes for Him to do the rest? Is it possible that God is waiting for you to start that project then He does the rest of what you need? God was waiting for Barak to advance in war. When Barak advanced, God stepped in and did the rest. He finishes what you start!
The crying has to be to the right persons who can help. Above all, we must cry to God. If we cry to God He will help us. You are wise if you cry immediately!
God tells Joshua to have memorabilia. National memorabilia. A collection that will trigger the memory of everyone in the nation. When dealing with memorabilia, it is not about what is collected but what memory is triggered. The item may be cheap but it carries the best memories ever that no money can buy. The memorabilia may be extremely expensive but its memory is pain that is so deep that one’s life span is shortened.
The unconquerable was conquered. This is God’s signature of approval! When the weakest beats and gains victory against the strongest, this is God’s signature of approval.
Now that this is the situation, what do we do? Over time we lose our zeal and passion, therefore we need a revival. Over time we die and we need a resurrection. Over time we forget our mission and vision and we need to be reminded. Over time we forget we are dispensable and we need to be shaken into the realization that we are not invincible. Those moments of reawakening must come from preaching, teaching, seminars, and seasonal evaluation.
Prayer is for the great only. God is a guaranteed present help in times of trouble. Problems are obstacles on our way to success. God removes all obstacles. He is the sure path to greatness at anything!
To save us from extremism God gave this command that we shouldn’t add or subtract to what He has said. An assessment of most contentious issues shows that they are additional or subtracted from God’s word. God is asking that we leave it as it is. Why can’t we leave it as it is?
