TODAY’S TOPIC: God's Promise
Text: Joshua 23:7- 16 (NIV):
"23:7. Do not associate with these nations that remain among you; do not invoke the names of their gods or swear by them. You must not serve them or bow down to them.
23:8. But you are to hold fast to the LORD your God, as you have until now.
23:9. "The LORD has driven out before you great and powerful nations; to this day no one has been able to withstand you.
23:10. One of you routs a thousand, because the LORD your God fights for you, just as he promised.
23:11. So be very careful to love the LORD your God.
23:12. "But if you turn away and ally yourselves with the survivors of these nations that remain among you and if you intermarry with them and associate with them,
23:13. then you may be sure that the LORD your God will no longer drive out these nations before you. Instead, they will become snares and traps for you, whips on your backs and thorns in your eyes, until you perish from this good land, which the LORD your God has given you.
23:14. "Now I am about to go the way of all the earth. You know with all your heart and soul that not one of all the good promises the LORD your God gave you has failed. Every promise has been fulfilled; not one has failed.
23:15. But just as every good promise of the LORD your God has come true, so the LORD will bring on you all the evil he has threatened, until he has destroyed you from this good land he has given you.
23:16. If you violate the covenant of the LORD your God, which he commanded you, and go and serve other gods and bow down to them, the LORD'S anger will burn against you, and you will quickly perish from the good land he has given you."
SHOWER (Reflection):
God says He knew the plans He have for us; the plans of good, not of evil. And His promises unto us will forever come to manifest. In verse 15 of this, Joshua reminded us that His promises never failed? Have you seen, heard or experienced any of His failed promises? It is not possible. It can only be a delay...delays come to prepare us for fulfilment of the promises. Let's therefore be positive and hold on to enjoy His promises.
PRAYER/DECLARATIONS
1. O God, I know Your promises never failed. Help me to hold unto You and excel in life in Jesus name, Amen.
2. O God, send down Your power now to demolish and dismantle any throne existing in my life or home that is not from You in Jesus name, Amen.
3. I will manifest Your power today. I will showcase Your light as I move about today in Jesus name, Amen!!!
