Winning Combination< ?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>

Numbers 33:1-4

The winning combination in all areas of life is boldness and character. When your boldness and character is intact, winning and being victorious will never be a stranger to you in all areas of life. The children of < ?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>Israel were finally freed from the bondage of over four hundred years. Numbers 33:3, ÒThey departed from Rameses in the first month, on the fifteenth day of the first month; on the day after the Passover the children of Israel went out with boldness in the sight of all the Egyptians.Ó They left with boldness, but there was no character to carry them through, except Caleb and Joshua. The children of Israel were able to leave with boldness because they have just witnessed the move of the great, good, and merciful hand of deliverance of God. They saw their slave-masters of many years burying their firstborn children, while the firstborn children of the Israelites were full of life. They were glowing while the oppressors were groaning. They were endued with boldness. In the course of their journey, the smoke of bad character revealed itself when the complaining spirit in them surfaced. Complaint caused patience to subside, and their journey was terminated. Boldness, which comes from the testimonies of what God is doing, will deliver victory into your hand — if your character is rooted in the word of God. As a child of the almighty God, your deliverance is meant for you to be a winner and an overcomer. God did not deliver you to lead you into another bondage — you know better. God meant deliverance for your good. Ask God to endue you with the grace to hold on to His testimonies in all areas of your life.

Not Impossible< ?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>

Numbers 32:8-15

The goodness and mercy of God was provoked when the cry of the children of < ?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>Israel reached God. Exodus 3:7, ÒAnd the LORD said: ÔI have surely seen the oppression of My people who are in Egypt, and have heard their cry because of their taskmasters, for I know their sorrows.ÕÓ God did not plan to get them stranded in the wilderness when He took them out of the bondage of over four hundred years. GodÕs plan was to get them out of bondage through the hand of Moses to a better land — a land flowing with milk and honey. God brought them out of bondage, but they could not leave Egypt behind. They could not follow God fully; they failed to let Egypt go. Let the past be past before your past turn you up as history. Numbers 32:11-12, ÒSurely, none of the men who came up from Egypt, from twenty years old and above, shall see the land which I swore to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, because they have not wholly followed Me, except Caleb the son of Jephunneh, the Kenizzite, and Joshua the son of Nun, for they have wholly followed the LORD.Ó It is not impossible for you to be in a rightful mind amongst thousands of people who arenÕt. When thousands are in one agreement, you can be the only one in disagreement and still be right.  Know whom you believe. Stand on His word of direction and do not compromise your faith. Ignore the dictates of your heart and you will not be surprised that you are the only one on His ground. God will enable you to take a rightful stand when situation demands it.

Breaking News< ?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>

John 4:46-54

This day, as you go on your way to work, school, and journey, you will get breaking news of healing, favor, and deliverance–if you believe the Word. The Bible recorded that a noble man heard that Jesus came from < ?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>Judea into Galilee, and he went to Him. Many times you have heard of Him, but you never went to Him. Today, as you have come in contact of the testimony that Jesus is Lord and the word of His mouth is power, breakthrough news will locate you. The noblemanÕs son was dying when he came to Jesus. John 4:49-50, ÒThe nobleman said to Him, ÔSir, come down before my child dies!Õ Jesus said to him, ÔGo your way; your son lives.Õ So the man believed the word that Jesus spoke to him, and he went his way.Ó Do you believe the power in His word? The same power that answered for the nobleman will answer for you this day in Jesus name. As the nobleman received direction to go on his way, he believed and went on his way without question, hesitation, or doubt. If you will believe and go on your way, the same Word that is still living today will locate you for breakthrough news. John 4:51, ÒAnd as he was going down, his servants met him and told him saying, ÔYour son lives!ÕÓ Because you have believed, you will also receive your breakthrough news in Jesus name. Every pronouncement that is negative will become news of positive to the glory of God. It is your day of good news as you go your way in the name of Jesus, Amen.

Appointment< ?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>

Acts 22:6-18

When He called Paul, it was the light of God that found Paul. It found him on his way to commit more crimes against the Lord. Where were you when the Lord called you? If in your journey you have received His calling, direction must be in place. When direction is in place, you will be a rider, not a pusher. God is a God of order and consistency; He will not just call you without direction. Your problem is coming from missing the direction He gave you when He called you. It could have been that you moved before listening for direction. If you have moved before His direction came forth, you have to go back for redirection. The calling of God cannot be fueled by emotion. Paul received a call from Him and he did not move without getting direction. Acts 22:10, Ò So I said, ÔWhat shall I do, Lord?Õ  And the Lord said to me, ÔArise and go into < ?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>Damascus and there you will be told all things which are appointed for you to do.ÕÓ He has an appointment for you; go and ask Him where you are going and what you are to do. Where you are now is not too late or too far for you to ask and get back into a right direction. There is an appointment for you, and you cannot afford to miss your appointment in the Lord. If you will, ask God to deliver you from whatever it is that causes man to miss divine appointments. 

Let Him< ?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>

John 4

There is a song that goes, ÒEverywhere he went He was doing good.Ó He was, and is the Almighty healer that heals the leper and gives light in the darkness. If you will let Him go through you today, you will not be left the same way. As much as Samarians were rejected by the Jews, as much as the Jews avoided the land < ?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>Samaria because of sin, Jesus had the need to go through Samaria. He wanted to touch the sinnerÕs life. John 4:4, ÒBut He needed to go through Samaria. So He came to a city of Samaria which is called Sychar, near the plot of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.Ó Will you let Him go through you? His going through will never leave you empty, but it will endue you with what it takes to be connected to heaven. He will be a fountain of living water instead of a dry well. His journey through Samaria was not to judge, but to take them from the past into where they should be with Him. There must have been another route that Jesus could have taken to go to Galilee, but He chose to go through Samaria. At the time He finished in Samaria, He was asked for stay a little longer. John 4:43, ÒNow after the two days He departed from there and went to Galilee.Ó If you will let Him go through you, he will never forsake you. After you have let Him through, His presence will continue in your life. Let Him go through you and you will never be the same again.
