TERRITORIAL VICTORY

-

Joshua 15:20,41,54,57,59-60,62

This was the homeland allocated to the clans of the tribe of Judah.

Gederoth, Beth-dagon, Naamah, and Makkedah—sixteen towns with their surrounding villages.

Humtah, Kiriath-arba (that is, Hebron), and Zior—nine towns with their surrounding villages.

Kain, Gibeah, and Timnah—ten towns with their surrounding villages.

Maarath, Beth-anoth, and Eltekon—six towns with their surrounding villages.

There were also Kiriath-baal (that is, Kiriath-jearim) and Rabbah—two towns with their surrounding villages.

Nibshan, the City of Salt, and En-gedi—six towns with their surrounding villages.


It was a total of 38 towns, initially allocated to the tribe of Judah. So much an inheritance in the promise land. We saw yesterday the victory of the faithful, how we reap the fruit of plenty when we remain faithful.


As believers we talk of territories not only as land area occupation but more importantly as territories won for the Lord.


The fulfilment of the prophesy:


Habakkuk 2:14

For as the waters fill the sea, the earth will be filled with an awareness of the glory of the Lord.


We use all the Lord has given us to fulfil this one purpose.


That the whole world come to know the Heavenly Father revealed through Christ Jesus.


Listen, definitely the whole world would know when the end comes, but we don't have to wait for that.


For Jesus said:


Matthew 24:38-39

In those days before the flood, the people were enjoying banquets and parties and weddings right up to the time Noah entered his boat.

People didn’t realize what was going to happen until the flood came and swept them all away. That is the way it will be when the Son of Man comes.


We don't have to wait till then, we must reach out to those who will believe.


As Paul wrote by revelation:


2 Corinthians 5:18-21

And all of this is a gift from God, who brought us back to himself through Christ. And God has given us this task of reconciling people to him.

For God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, no longer counting people’s sins against them. And he gave us this wonderful message of reconciliation.

So we are Christ’s ambassadors; God is making his appeal through us. We speak for Christ when we plead, “Come back to God!”

For God made Christ, who never sinned, to be the offering for our sin, so that we could be made right with God through Christ.


How? You may ask. I don't have much money, I am not eloquent, I am not a mega pastor etc.


Listen,


You have your area of influence.


You have your internet presence.


You have your neighbourhood presence.


You have your family.


You have your local assembly. (Join the evangelical team and give a hand)


Give a hand somewhere, your talent must not be hidden, it must be multiplied.


Areas abound.


No believer is left out, spread the gospel.


The true gospel, not breakthrough promises, or generic prayers, or other distractions. But the gospel of Christ the saviour of the world. God revealed on earth.


Let us take over territories.


Fill the airwaves with the real gospel of Christ!


Help us Good Lord.


PRAYER

O Lord reveal to me my part in Your kingdom business. Help me Lord be Your representative everywhere You locate me. May all the wisdom revealed in these later times be my tool to fulfil Your purpose. Glory to Your name Lord forevermore.


He calls us blessed.


Love

@the watcher.

DO YOU STILL SEE?

Habakkuk 2:3 For the vision is yet for an appointed time; but at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, it will not tarry. It may have been easy when we first believed, to visualize the promises. We reach out with zeal, loving God, seeking to do exploits. That was when we first believed, just as Jesus said: John 3:3 Jesus answered and said to him, "Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God." When we become born again we see God's kingdom, our spirit man is reborn and we count the flesh as nothing. Then time passes by, we are in the world, all its distractions, temptations, responsibilities, challenges and so on begin to reveal themselves. The question then is: * Can we still see heaven? John 3:3 * Are we still zealous? John 2:17 * Are we continuing in those things? Acts 2:42 * Are we walking in love? 1John 4:7 or Has the cares and worries of life and service ta

DO UNTO OTHERS . . .

-
Matthew 7:12 "Therefore, whatever you want men to do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets. It is hypocritical of us to expect people to stand with us when we are experiencing challenges yet when we see others face their own challenges, we begin to imagine what they must have done wrong or maybe they annoyed God or did one evil or the other instead of reaching out to help as we would desire others to do for us. The same thing goes for prosperity, when the Lord opens a door for us and we have abundance of wealth or a breakthrough we expect others to rejoice with us, more so, some would even find it hard to give to others. What is our reaction when someone else gets this breakthrough, do we get suddenly suspicious without reason. Do we expect the person to reach out to us? It is better to stay on the side of encouragement than to sit as a judge or prosecutor. Jesus said, Matthew 7:2 "For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the same

MY YEAR OF FULFILMENT

-
Psalms 57:2 I cry out to God Most High, to God who will fulfill his purpose for me. We just finished the book of 1Samuel, in this book we see the cry of Israel for a king and how God raised Saul to rule them. We also saw how Saul disobeyed God and lost kingship for himself and his generation. He did not stop there, he went on to seek for the death of David, whom he saw as the next heir of the throne. In chapter 31, the last chapter, we see how Saul and all his sons and men were killed, it was tragic, however it was as a sign of relief for David. We could go on counting all the struggles and difficulties we faced in the past year. No, we should not, we should begin to look at all the positives, remembering all the good things God has done for us. If He promised it, He will do it and that is what we hold onto as we go through this year. Hebrews 10:23 Let us hold tightly without wavering to the hope we affirm, for God can be trusted to keep his promise. This is the year of fulfilment, and
