FASTING AND PRAYER - DAY TEN
“Then Caleb silenced the people before Moses
and said,
‘We should go up and take possession
of the land, for we can certainly do it.”’ Numbers 13:30
God is in the moving business. He is always in the process of moving His
people. Although we are often content where we are, God loves us enough not to
leave us there. In this year 2015, there are changes that God has in mind for you.
Sometimes these changes makes us uncomfortable and we become stubborn in
accepting them.
A good illustration is found in the children of Israel as they were
moving from Egypt to the Promised Land. God sent miracle after miracle to get them
out. But they did not want to go on in and possess what He intended for them.
In fact, they said in Numbers 14:3, “... Wouldn’t it be better for us to go
back to Egypt?” It seems God could take His people out of Egypt, but His people
couldn’t leave Egypt behind.
The old song says, “I have decided to follow Jesus – No turning back, no
turning back.” Paul says in Philippians 1:6, “Being confident of this, that He
who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of
Christ Jesus.”
God has begun a spiritual project for you in 2015. May we take heed of
the lesson we learn from the children of Israel going to the Promised Land. May
we be wise enough to realize that God began this great project, and He will
continue this work until completion.
Prayer Focus:
- Pray that God will continue to lead the way and that your faith will remain strong as we continue with this vision He has given us this year.
- Thank the Lord for loving you enough not to leave you where you are.
- Also thank Him for the privilege of being a part of this church body of believers during this exciting time in our history.
