Title: Wholly follow the Lord your God.
“Nevertheless my brethren who went up with me made the heart of the people melt, but I wholly followed the LORD my God. So Moses swore on that day, saying,
‘Surely the land where your foot has trodden shall be your inheritance and your children’s forever,
because you have wholly followed the LORD my God.’”Joshua 14:8-9 NKJV.
It is the desire of God in Jesus Christ that you wholly follow the Lord your God,
that you put on the whole armour of God and that you have a strong conviction of His faithfulness,
His power and His might. Caleb the son Jephunneh, wholeheartedly followed the Lord His God and reaped the results.
He was of strong conviction concerning what God had spoken.
Point of reflection:
The word of God says in Ephesians 6: 10-12 NKJV:
“Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Put on the whole armour of God,
that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities,
against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.”
It is therefore important that you keep the whole armour of God, that you have strength of conviction about the work of the ministry.
The word of God teaches us, that when you hold fast to His word without wavering you will reap the results.
You need a key to all this and this is in your attitude towards Almighty God.
Attitude is what you need to work on- you may ask what does that mean?
You see, the word of God has built in capacity to produce the spiritual substance called faith
in those who hear it with a positive expecting attitude.
Those who have prepared the ground of their heart to be responsive to the word of God.
Those who have known Almighty God to be good, loving, holy, righteous, faithful, just and more.
Caleb's heart was deeply rooted in understanding the positive attributes of God.
So when the word of God was spoken to him- it sunk deep into his good ground, exploded- producing the spiritual substance -faith.
For His word says "So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God" Romans 10:17 NKJV.
Do you desire to reap the results of wholly following the Lord and having a strong conviction about His word?
When you are ready-
Prayer of consecration:
My Father in the name of Jesus Christ, I thank you for your increased grace and mercy.
Thank you for the sacrifice of the cross and the blood that was shed to deliver me from every weapon of the enemy satan.
I acknowledge the risen Jesus Christ as Lord of my life from today.
I set myself apart to wholly follow the Lord my God and to wait upon His word without wavering.
I reject, renounce and denounce the enemy satan and every demonic influence upon my life,
I command you to let me go and serve my God,
for you were defeated, disarmed and stripped naked by Jesus Christ- publicly and openly on the cross.
I ask you Father in the name of Jesus Christ to fill me with your Holy Spirit right now
and I receive the abundant outpouring of your Spirit upon my life.
I commit myself to wholly follow the Lord my God.
In Jesus Christ's name I pray. Amen.
