FAITH CAPSULE:\u00a0<\/strong>All should know that God is forever faithful to His promise.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Deuteronomy 1<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

When it was time for the Israelites to possess the promise of God, it was time to move from dwelling at the mountain bottom.\u00a0
The mountain bottom could be a place of comfort that takes away the sight of potential breakthroughs in life.\u00a0
The Bible records in\u00a0Deuteronomy 1:6-7, \u201cThe Lord our God spoke to us in Horeb, saying: \u2018You have dwelt long enough at this mountain.\u201d<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0
One can engage in comfort and not continue the journey to possess fully.\u00a0
Are you dwelling in the wrong position long enough not to move to pursue and possess the promise of God?
When God called the Israelites out of the mountain bottom, He called their attention by stating,\u00a0\u201cSee, I have set the land before you; go in and possess the land…\u201d (Deuteronomy 1:8)<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0
Possessing what is yet at hand demands faith to see in the place of nothing.\u00a0
The word of God and His promises are not visible physically until one begins to see it as the truth to go after it.\u00a0
The truth of God cannot fail to deliver.\u00a0
Above all, His word does not return to Him void, but the world voids His word, not doing according to the word of God.
In addition to coming out of the mountain bottom (comfortable dwelling position) and not seeing, there shall be no room for fear and discouragement.\u00a0
Moses warned about fear and discouragement while emphasizing to the Israelites the need to see and be able to possess in\u00a0Deuteronomy 1:21, \u201cLook, the Lord your God has set the land before you; go up and possess it, as the Lord God of your fathers has spoken to you; do not fear or be discouraged.\u201d\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>
Fear is the opposite of faith.\u00a0
Fear sinks faith.
Discouragement denies the ability to see in line with what God has promised.
Can you consider where you are in the promise of God for your life?\u00a0
Identify if you are at the mountain bottom or you have engaged in rising to possess.
Have you allowed fear and discouragement to take over the seat of driving your journey?\u00a0
All should know that God is forever faithful to His promise.\u00a0
Do not fail to engage and possess the promise of God.\u00a0 \u00a0
God called Abraham,\u00a0\u201cTake now your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you. So Abraham rose early in the morning and saddled his donkey, and took two of his young men with him and Isaac his son\u2026\u201d (Genesis 22:3)\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>
Abraham rose to the calling of God to deny the mountain bottom.
Rise up and not delay!\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prayer for today:<\/strong> Ask God to enable you to rise to His promise for your life. <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
