Good Morning!
Now arise, continue on, and go through the valley of the Arnon. Look, I have handed over to you Sihon the Amorite, king of Heshbon, and his land. Begin! Take possession [of it] and fight with him in battle. -Deuteronomy 2:24
How many times are we sitting in one area feeling overwhelmed or defeated? That is where the enemy, Satan, wants us to be, inactive and overwhelmed. How many times is God telling us to get into action, to begin! Often God has the battle won for us already but all we have to do is to engage! If the enemy can convince us that it is a lost cause and what we do won’t make a difference anyway, then he has won. When I read through the Old Testament there are lots of stories that the Israelites were outnumbered 10 to 1 and God came through in big victorious ways, God hasn’t changed and is still in the business of having big victories if we are willing to partner with Him and give Him the glory! The more the world seems to slip into depravity the more we need to engage, one person with God on his/her side CAN make a difference. Are you willing to engage? To allow God to use you to make a difference?
“Live in such a way that those who know you, but don’t know God, will come to know God because they know you.”
“God is responsible for the consequences of our obedience, we are responsible for the consequences of our disobedience.” -Charles Stanley

People who like it would be ceiling fans.
