Good Morning to all my friends. This is another day that God has given us, let us be glad and rejoice in it. My prayer for you is that God will bless each of you today and give you His peace and His comfort in all that you do. Todays Challenge ------------------- Trust And Have Faith Not a man of this evil generation shall see the good land I swore to give your forefathers, except Caleb son of Jephunneh. Deuteronomy 1:35-36 When the twelve spies were sent into Canaan to spy out the land, ten of them returned with a bad report. Their assessment was that it was impossible to conquer the land that God had promised them. Forgetting how God had led them with a pillar of fire by night, and fed them manna from heaven during the day, brought forth water out of a rock, and parted the Red Sea, they saw the situation with only their natural eyes. They failed to walk by faith, and succumbed to fear. Joshua and Caleb however, returned with a good report. Refusing to be discouraged by what they saw, they fully trusted that their supernatural God was not going to break His promise to His people. This lesson is a good one for us to remember, as we are also living in days where the world looks bleak, and the evils seem to grow more threatening and dangerous. How will we react? Will we be devastated, and terrorized like the ten spies with a bad report? Or will we do something extraordinary. Will we walk by faith like Joshua and Caleb, trust in the love and power of our God, and seize the opportunities that are at hand? Today, I would encourage each of you to think about this message, and walk by faith, and stand firm in it. Face every challenge, and take hold of every opportunity that awaits you. If you use Joshua and Caleb as your examples of faith and courage in these evil days, you too can be victorious in your daily walk with God. When you trust and have faith, that God will lead you on the right paths, you also can reach your promised land, and be victorious in every battle.
