JOSHUA THE COURAGEOUS YOUTHFUL LEADER

God bless you for taking your time to study.

TOPIC: JOSHUA THE COURAGEOUS YOUTHFUL LEADER

TEXT: Deuteronomy 34: 1-8 
 
WEDNESDAY OCTOBER 19TH

Key Verse: “This book of the law shall not depart out of your mouth, but thou shall meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shall make thy way prosperous, and then thou shall have success” (Joshua 1:8)
God instructed Moses to select from the heads of the tribes of Israel one person each to go and spy on the land of Canaan, and to bring the report of their findings to the congregation of Israel. A greater number of the spies brought an evil report to the congregation and the people revolted against Moses and Aaron. They even made a proposal to pick a leader who will lead them back to Egypt, but Joshua and Caleb encouraged the people before Moses, and said, “Let us go up at once, and possess it; for we are well able to overcome it”.
We have in our midst today people who will discourage you from taking bold steps to serve the Lord or come out of sin. We are ready to go to any length to encourage you to remain steadfast in the Lord, like Joshua and Caleb. Those destroyers are the caterpillars in our midst, while the builders are the pillars. Many were the followers of Jesus Christ in His days of ministry, but the Bible tells us that some went back and followed Him no more (John 6:60-66) because the message was too hard for them to bear. Know that the mix of multitudes is still among us as in the days of Moses. Never get discouraged by evil winds around us, remain encouraged, and stay on in HOREMOW, which is the waiting room for heaven. 
Joshua was a youthful and courageous leader who took brave steps to fight, win and conquer lands for the children of Israel as instructed by God. Notable events in the life of Joshua are the crossing of the Jordan, the fall of Jericho, the battle of Ai, and the renewal of the covenant between God and His people. What can God say about you?

Thought for the day: Decide today whom you will serve

Song for the day: We can go up and take the country…

Bible reading for the day: 
Jeremiah 1-2; 2 Thessalonians 2
#Horemow.

THE LORD IS REMOVING UNCIRCUMCISED LEADERS

REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD. THURSDAY 30 DECEMBER THE LORD IS REMOVING UNCIRCUMCISED LEADERS TEXT: NUMBERS 14: 26-31  Key verse: Matthew 20:16 So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many  be called, but few chosen. Completion of the angelic message: The Lord continued. “Because of this mandate given to you, I am removing around you the uncircumcised leaders. I am going to fill their place with righteous and holy leaders from various nations and races.” Truly I had pondered if any minister has suffered like this. People I loved, cherished and lived peacefully with suddenly began to speak evil against me to my shock. Well, it happens in politics, but is limited to their countries, whereas mine is international! Yes, some ministers may have suffered these things, but that was before the advent of the Internet, so their sufferings were limited. Maybe through letters or newspapers for a limited time, but my own is in the world of the I...
