0929 Seasons - Joshua Generation

But your little ones, whom you said would be victims, I will bring in, and they shall know the land which you have despised.

Numbers 14:31

Moreover your little ones and your children, who you say will be victims, who today have no knowledge of good and evil, they shall go in there; to them I will give it, and they shall possess it.

Deuteronomy 1:39

1. God sees POTENTIAL where we feel PITY!

Little Ones

No Knowledge

Look like Victims, “I WILL BRING IN, THEY SHALL POSSESS IT.”

God is creator, not duplicator!!!

No rod but ark. No Moses but Joshua. No Red Sea but Jorden. No manna but milk. No plagues but power.

They don’t know the past revivals, God will not copy and paste. He is creator.

We are not pillars but people. We are not monuments but movements.

Revival that’s coming will not look like revival of the past!

Goliath saw a dog, brothers saw a shepherd, Saul saw a threat, others saw a boy, God saw a king

3. We will expend territory not just grow the army.

Shift from growing in numbers to growing in land. Family became an army.

They entered as family but existed as an army.

Egypt they got bigger, promise land they got more land.

Moses didn’t do all the fighting, they all did their part…

Salt not suger.

We will not only grow our churches, we will expend the kingdom. Their numbers grew but their territory expended.

Jesus preached kingdom. Church will be taken but kingdom will remain. Competition, jealousy, growing church by shrinking other is not goal.

Mindset to take people outside into spheres of influence...

2. Carry Gods’ presence on your shoulders

As donkey did, as priests did...

Power follows presence. Presence rests on people, not just person.

In Jesus’ time, power came on person, in Acts, Spirit came on people (not apostles).

It doesn’t remove the need for Joshua, it empowers everyone with same task.

4. We will move from deliverance to dominion.

Original intent wasn’t deliverance. Promise was authority. Grace is to reign...goal is not deliverance...

He will deliver u from Pharoah but he will entrust you with phillistines...

Whatever God hasn’t removed - he has empowered u to resist...

I Haven’t seen police run from gangsters, it’s always the other way around...devil is criminal, you are police. Don’t running from him.

5. Before fighting the enemy we must cut our flesh.

Cutting before conquering. God is bringing consecration...circumcision...cutting of the flesh. Early prayer...fasting...if u want to last got to fast...if u don’t wanna stray u got to pray...house will be called a house do prayer once again...

6. Build memorial to miracles, not monuments to mysteries.

Don’t put God at the mercy of your mood.

Don’t link your faith to your feelings.

We will build memorials to miracles not monuments to mistakes and mysteries of unanswered prayers. God will not always give u inspiration, he gives you good memory to remember what he has done - draw your faith from his previous activity in the face of crazy battle.

Remember lowest points - take stones as memorials to Gods faithfulness...so when life gets hard u don’t go back to cucucombers of Egypt but stones of Jorden...

Love by Faith, love by Gods Faithness when u feel God left you - abandoned you. When Walla stare at you. Giants laugh at you. People ridicule you:

When teacher is silent - don’t panic. Remember what he said before this...it’s a test...
