2Cor.5:17(Amp) says, "Therefore, if any person is ingrafted in Christ Jesus (the Messiah), he is a new creation (a new creature altogether); the old previous moral and Spiritual condition has passed away. Behold, the fresh and new has come."
Witnessing the things occurring under this present Administration in America, leads me to Ex.1:8(Amp), which says, "Now a new king arose over Egypt who did not know Joseph." I see a pharaoh, who is trying to make himself god over the American people. Looking at the things the world is showing us can be overwhelming, but this is why we look to Jesus, Who is the "Author and Finisher of our faith."
We must keep our eyes on our Heavenly Father and His Promises, which are all "Yes and Amen to His Praise and Glory in Christ Jesus," so our discouragements turn once again to victory. There might be giants in the Land, but we serve the One Who is Greater than them. In these Last Days, God is looking for people who will take the Land and believe in Him and His Promises. This is a Joshua Generation that will simply trust God at His Word and take the Land, instead of dying in the Wilderness.
Many feel alone in what we're doing, but that is a lie from the enemy. God is raising up a people all over this Land, who will walk in the Rest He has Promised in His Word. Joshua took Canaan and we can take back America. The time has come to put our faith in God's Promise, in Psalm2:8(Amp), where He says, "Ask of Me, and I will give you the nations as your inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth as your possession."
Things might look bad and things might seem to be in disarray, but we must stand in faith on God's Word. Heb.4:2(Amp) says, "The Message they heard did not benefit them, because it was not mixed with faith (with the leaning of the entire Personality on God in absolute trust and confidence in His Power, Wisdom and Good); by those who heard it. Neither were they united in faith with the ones (Joshua and Caleb) who heard and did believe." We're not alone in believing God for deliverance. God is raising up a people who will enter in and we're called to go with them, instead of murmuring about the giants.
The mention of "Rest," wasn't speaking about entering into Canaan, because if Joshua had given them rest, then God would not speak afterward about another day of Rest in Heb.4:9(Amp), which says, "So then, there is still awaiting a full and complete Sabbath-Rest reserved for the true people of God." The Sabbath-Rest refers to our having faith in God, to do what He has Promised to and for us. This isn't only for when we get to Heaven, but is our resting in Him now, during our time of trial and testing by the enemy who "knows not Joseph (Jesus). God never instructed us to give back this Land to the devil, but to stand our ground and retain what He has given us.
Those who say, "We can't fight city hall," don't understand what our Almighty God can do. He won't only fight city hall, but He will overcome it for us, if we'll do what He said and "mix faith with His Promises." It might look dark, but God's Word is True and the Light will overcome the darkness. This is for all people in all nations, as well as America.
This isn't about politics, but about Light and dark, in the kingdom. America is about to enter into her best days, by the Hand of God for His people and for those who are unsaved yet. The awesome things we read about in the first covenant, are still in the Hands of the One Who did those things to deliver His people. We must keep our eyes on Jesus, instead of the giants or anything else the enemy tries to show us. I don't know how He's going to do it, but I know that He is going to do it.
There will soon be an outpouring of the Manifest Presence of God in this earth, so that even those who don't believe, will surely say, "This is God in our midst." The eleventh chapter of Hebrews is not yet complete and we will overcome all obstacles by faith in God and His Word. I look for your name to be written in the Believers Hall of Fame. The Church isn't going out of here with a whimper and crying, but with glorious and triumphant praise and Glory. God hasn't forsaken or forgotten His children and "Pharaoh will let His people go."
We must use the things we learned and have laid dormant in our hearts, because, just prior to His Ascension, Jesus Promised in John14:26(Amp) that, "The Holy Spirit is coming to bear fruit." Thus, He said, "But the Comforter, (Counselor, Helper, Intercessor, Advocate, Strengthener, Stand-by), the Holy Spirit, Whom the Father will send in My Name (in My Place, to represent Me and act on My behalf), He will teach you all things and He will cause you to recall (will remind you of, bring to your remembrance) everything I told you."
Our having faith in the Power of Jesus' Name, the power of confident prayer, the knowledge of God's will and faith in His Word, will bring about all God has Promised. We can't only have faith for ourselves, our families and our loved ones, but we must have faith for our nations and the world. Some in the Church, who don't have faith in the Message they've heard, might choose to remain in the Wilderness, like those who came out of Egypt did. The giants might look bigger than what they can handle, but we're not the ones who have to handle them. We only must believe and Rest in God and take the Land He has given us. God will take care of the giants, as we go.
