Oct 2024 - Have I not commanded you, to be strong and courageous? Yes, You did God!!

Sabbath Shalom- Happy Oct 2024.

Have I not commanded you, to be strong and courageous? Yes, You did God!! 

Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go. - Joshua 1:9

This verse is like a pep talk, call to action, to step into next step, to face the God arranged trials telling us to have faith and trust in God's plan. When God's got our back, we have got nothing to worry about. Amen. 😊. He's like our personal superhero, giving us strength, courage, and all the wisdom we need to face any challenge. Period. We are called to be strong and courageous like Joshua, to meditate on God’s word so that we know His precepts above any accusation of the enemy or the culture around us. 

• This scripture emphasizes the need for courage as the Israelites face the challenges of conquering the Promised Land.
• The verse doesn't simply tell Joshua to be strong but gives a reason - "for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go." God's presence is the source of strength and courage for Joshua.
• The phrase "wherever you go" signifies that God's presence is not confined to a specific location. ADONAI is with His people wherever they are.

In Summary, this verse is a foundational principle for Christian living - facing challenges with courage due to God's constant presence and He should banish all fear and discouragement. True courage comes from trusting in God's promises and faithfulness.

Joshua was strong and courageous because he knew His God was with him. We should be also declare that God is with us, He will never leave us nor forsake us and will watch over us. Hallelujah ☺️

Wishing you an outstanding Oct 2024. 

Peace be upon The State of Israel and Us.🙏 
Shalom. 🙏🙏
In His Grip...🙏🙏🙏

Boldness

Boldness Reference: Heb 4:12-16 We do not have to tiptoe toward God. We can always enter His presence—not only when in need, full, or facing challenges. His Word pierces soul and spirit, joints and marrow. He knows our thoughts and intentions before we ask or think. So the author of Hebrews urges us: boldly approach the throne of Grace. Receive daily bread, seasonal help, mercies, and Grace He has already arranged. In time of need, at the right time, He will help us. As Peter assured, submit obediently in His hand. Confidence: Not because the week went well. Not because your prayers feel mature. Because the curtain tore. Confidence isn't arrogance. It's knowing God left the door open.  The barrier didn't get thin—it split wide open. The King on the throne is also our High Priest. He knows our weakness from the inside. We are not interrupting Him. We have been invited. Gentle invitation. Urgent invitation. If Grace finds us and fills the room, what happens to the pressure to...

The Lifestyle of David - Faith, Trust and Prayer

The Lifestyle of David - Faith, Trust and Prayer Reference - 1 Sam 17, Ps 59 and 2 Sam 15 David was known as a man after God’s own heart, as witnessed by God Himself. The Bible reveals many reasons for this, but one of the most notable is his unwavering faith—trusting God completely and placing all his hope in the One who is more than able to guide him. I would like to discuss three scenarios and observe his responses to inspire our faith and draw us closer to Him. 1) When the Israelite army fled from Goliath, David stood his ground, boldly declaring the giant’s defeat before the fight even began, trusting entirely in the Name of the Lord rather than physical weapons. With a single stone, David struck Goliath down, vindicated God’s Name, routed the Philistine army, and proved to all that the battle belongs to the Lord. He proclaimed victory before the clash, relying not on spear, sword, or javelin, but on the Lord’s power. David said, in 1 Sam 17:45-47, “You come against me with sword,...

Prayer is tactical, transactional and transformative practice in the Bible.

Yes, prayer in the Bible is indeed **tactical**, **transactional**, and **transformative**. Each of these aspects highlights a different dimension of prayer, showing its depth and power in the life of a believer. Let’s explore these three dimensions with biblical examples and insights: --- ### **1. Prayer is Tactical** Prayer is a **spiritual weapon** and a strategic tool in the believer’s life. It is used to engage in spiritual warfare, seek God’s guidance, and advance His kingdom. - **Biblical Example**: **Ephesians 6:18**     Paul instructs believers to "pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests." This is part of the "armor of God," showing that prayer is a tactical weapon in spiritual battles.    - **Application**:     Prayer is not passive; it is an active, intentional practice to combat evil, break strongholds, and bring God’s will to earth. It is a way to align ourselves with God’s strategies and overcome th...
