So Joshua went up from Gilgal, he and all the people of war with him and all the valiant warriors. And the Lord said to Joshua, “Do not fear them, for I have handed them over to you. Not one of them will stand against you.” Joshua 10:7-8 New American Standard Bible
Few of us ever face military warfare.
But…
All face battles throughout their lives on this side of eternity.
Spiritual battles when Papa challenges you to become more like Jesus.
Physical battles when Papa challenges you to unconditionally trust Him for physical healing.
Financial battles when Papa challenges you to seek heavenly treasures, not earthly treasures.
Relational battles when Papa challenges you to sever ungodly relationships.
Although these battles may have different scenarios, they all require fearless courage— faith.
Faith that…
Refuses to allow circumstances or the cares of this world to dictate, dominate or deter you from an ongoing, intimate relationship with Jesus.
Dies daily to the desires of your flesh. Less concerned with personal notoriety because it is you honor to create a life that glorifies Jesus.
Courageously fights the forces of evil. Valiantly persevering until Christ’s return.
Is merciless regarding sin but merciful towards the sinner.
Teaches love not hate… encouragement not condemnation… legacy not failure.
Uses skills, talents and gifts to glorify Papa both inside and outside the four walls of a church building. Wisely stewarding all possessions so the Kingdom is glorified and supplied with whatever is required or needed.
Unselfishly helps and serves those who are downtrodden and lost.
Operates in the supernatural— spiritual realm as easily as in the earthly realm.
Is consecrated to the one and only King— Jesus.
Your King is waiting for you, His loyal subject, to kneel before Him. If you are wise, you will re-gift your life— your heart, relationships, finances, dreams, everything! Wrap these gifts in love and gratefulness and lay them at the feet of King Jesus. In return, He promises to treat each gift as His own.
REMEMBER!
Anything that is in the hands of King Jesus receives an eternal reward. Thus, giving you the final victory!
