Your mountain in front of you!

introduction

this song i learned at a young age, “Whose report will we believe? We shall believe in the report of the Lord”

they listened to their leaders

they obeyed

GEt your boat in the water

daily i take up my cross… daily!

its not be emotions

but its what the Lord has said

moving forward at all times

not looking back

standing on the word God gave you

wrestling

obedience

the wrong perspective

the write perspective

instead of looking at your mountain or the vision ahead of you that it is impossible take on this perception of joshua and caleb

leaving the things that were behind

lets get out of the wilderness and possess the mountain in front of you!own it lilke a boss:)

Numbers 14:5-9 Go aagainst the grain The land we passed through and explored is exceedingly great if the Lord is pleased with us, he will lead us into that land, a land flowing with milk and honey, and will give it to us. Only do not rebel against the Lord, and do not be afraid of the people of the land because we will devour them. Their protection is gone, but the Lord is with us. Do not be afraid of them.

As a child i learned the song “Who’s report will you believe,, i believe in the report of the Lord!”

picture of putting your foot in the water…the Lord was talking to Joshua and giving him instructions for the israelites to cross the jordan joshua 3:8 Tell the priests who carry the ark of the covenant: “when you reach teh edge of teh Jordan’s water , go and stand in the riverd”

put your foot in the river!

Do what God has instructed you?! to get to that mountain/ to climb that mountain

put your foot in the water… and see the Lord s

not going by emotions..

eyes forward not looking back

joshua and caleb

they came back with a good report

caleb laid claim to his inheritance what was promised to him.. he went up to Joshua and reminded him of what moses had said of the Land — he took hold of it

march around the walls of jericho

Gideons 300 the ones who lapped like dogs

watchfull and vigilent.. for your enemy .. a roaring lion

what is the purpose of the mountain

how are you going to climb that mountain

and what does it look like on the other side

me i ahve my own mountain to climb…

propelling wiht climbing gear

its a new adventure

if God said it will he not do it

or will you be as the israelites who marched around the walls of… jericho and it came down ibecause of their obedience and fiath in God

Gideons army.. tested to see who would go and fight

what has God put in front of you to accomplish

what task or mandate has he given to you?

do you see it in front of you

your mountain is your opportunity for promotion in the spirittual realm..

to make your spiritual muscles bigger

it is also just a portion of what God has for youin the bigger picture

what is the picture God gave you

what has God promised you

what pictures are you seeing?

do you have a model to imitate. is there someone you admire that has gone the road ahead of you and been successful

or are you seeing yourself as grasshoppers

instead of seeing yourselves as kings and queens

as warriors dressed for battle

where is your faith

what actions are taking along with your faith

the 300 men

be vigilent and on the alert for your enemy is going around as lion seeking whom he may devour

jesus the finished work of calvary

where is your faith?

is it in the Lord and what he has told you and promised you

what pictures are you seeing?

or is it in your past experiences your failures

break free of those chains.. put off the old yoke the old things that keep you from acomplishing the vision God has given to you

how are you seeing yourself

as the israelites in the new land of canaan as grasshopers

as joshua and caleb

as david

what are your actions to your faith: what are you doing towards vision

going around the walls of jericho

what has God told you to do? what has your Apostle told you to do?

or are you tripping up at the beginning
