What Do You See?

Today's Feast Sept. 15, 2015 – Joshua 11 What Do You See? “16 So we have come to know and to believe the love that God has for us. God is love, and whoever abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him.” 1 John 4:16 English Standard Version (ESV) clic aquí en español Please join with us sharing God’s Word daily. W e will spend about fifteen minutes a day praying and reading every word in God’s Word in approximately three years. Return to Admenu – Admenu’s Alternate Site Dear Saints, Thank you for joining us, as we prayerfully continue the Feast reading Joshua, Chapter 11; “Divers kings overcome at the waters of Merom. (1-9) Hazor is taken and burned. (10-14) All that country subdued, The Anakims cut off. (15-23)” - Matthew Henry Concise. Joshua and the army are following God into battle. The odds at times have been turned against them (see Joshua 7:10-12) due to the actions of men. However because they believed God he forgave them and the occupation of the new land moved forward. Most of the times it looked like the odds were against them, but because they had faith they did as God commanded. “6 And the Lord said to Joshua, “Do not be afraid of them, for tomorrow at this time I will give over all of them, slain, to Israel. You shall hamstring their horses and burn their chariots with fire.”7 So Joshua and all his warriors came suddenly against them by the waters of Merom and fell upon them.8 And the Lord gave them into the hand of Israel, who struck them and chased them as far as Great Sidon and Misrephoth-maim, and eastward as far as the Valley of Mizpeh. And they struck them until he left none remaining.9 And Joshua did to them just as the Lord said to him: he hamstrung their horses and burned their chariots with fire.” Joshua 11:6-9, English Standard Version (ESV). They believed God, and God blessed them. You and I are involved in a battle today. Though our battle may appear physical in nature it’s not. The enemy hates God, God loves us, so the enemy will attack us on any front possible. Look saints you know God gave us a commission. Because we all have a personal relationship with Jesus, we all have a mission. Now Satan may attack a loved one or else our health. He may do this so our spirits fall and we loose site of our mission. He hates God so much that he will do whatever it takes to scuttle our faith. God has given us written instruction that will prepare us to stand in this battle. “10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might.11 Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil.12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places.13 Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm.” Ephesians 6:10-13, ESV. God makes provisions for us so that we will triumph in our mission. What is faith and where do we look to bolster our faith? “1 Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.2 For by it the people of old received their commendation.3 By faith we understand that the universe was created by the word of God, so that what is seen was not made out of things that are visible.“ Hebrews 11:1-3, ESV. God’s Word tells us that faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God. If you think about it this Feast is used by our Lord to build our faith. No matter what you are facing, how big or insurmountable it may seem keep your eyes on Jesus. “7 But the Lord said to Samuel, “Do not look on his appearance or on the height of his stature, because I have rejected him. For the Lord sees not as man sees: man looks on the outward appearance, but the Lord looks on the heart.”” 1 Samuel 16:7, ESV. We are, keeping the first thing first. That is salvation through the blood of Jesus. I send the Feast out as the Holy Spirit inspires me. If the Lord Is willing I’ll send and post the Feast again tomorrow. Is Jesus knocking at your door?
