FIRE SCRIPTURE
Numbers 13:25-33
25 The men explored that country for 40 days, and then they went back to the camp. 26 The Israelites were camped near Kadesh, in the desert of Paran. The men went to Moses and Aaron and all the Israelites. They told Moses, Aaron, and all the people what they saw and showed them the fruit from the land.
27 The men told Moses, “We went to the land where you sent us. It is a land filled with many good things! Here is some of the fruit that grows there. 28 But the people living there are very powerful. The cities are very large and strongly defended. We even saw some Anakites there. 29 The Amalekites live in the Negev. The Hittites, Jebusites, and Amorites live in the hill country. The Canaanites live near the sea and by the Jordan River.”
30 Caleb told the people near Moses to be quiet. Then Caleb said, “We should go up and take that land for ourselves. We can easily take that land.”
31 But the men who had gone with him said, “We cannot fight those people! They are much stronger than we are.”
32 So those men gave a report that discouraged the people. They said, “The land we saw is full of strong people. They are strong enough to easily defeat anyone who goes there. 33 We saw the giant Nephilim people there! (The descendants of Anak come from the Nephilim.) We felt like little grasshoppers. Yes, we were like grasshoppers to them!”
MFM Daily Devotional 18th March 2023 MESSAGE
Our subject of discussion for today has become very necessary so that many Christians will not remain mere church goers but heaven-bound believers. Strangely, many people go to church, but they are already dead spiritually.
Can we say therefore that such churches are spiritual cemeteries, because the people in them are spiritually dead and inactive? God is looking for Christian soldiers who are ready to take the battle to the enemy’s gate; believers who are ready to possess their possessions without bargaining with the enemy. Christian soldiers therefore cannot be baby Christians but mature believers, who have been tested and proven in the battlefield of life.
Can your faith stand the test of time? Are you mature enough to stand and face the enemy eyeball to eyeball? There are Christians who have passed through the rigorous process of growth unto maturity. Breaking evil strongholds and achieving spiritual breakthroughs are not mean feats achieved by Christian babies, but believers who are striving to maturity. What a tragedy when a person claims to be a believer and he or she does not grow in the Lord.
It is when individual Christians are growing that the church can grow. When men who are on fire for God gather together to hold fellowship and to pray, people in their environment will know that these are not ordinary people because they would tum their environment upside down for the Lord. Daniel 12:32 tells us that those who know their God shall do exploits. You must have a deep knowledge of God to do exploits.
Beloved, it is time to arise and begin to make positive spiritual impact where you are by taking your spiritual growth more seriously. When you grow, you can take responsibility and do exploits for God.
The old popular song of our forefathers in the Lord affirms this truth: “We are able to go up and take the country, to possess our land from Jordan to the sea, though the giants may be on the way to hinder, God will surely give us victory. Move on to the righteous side of God.”
It is only the spiritually mature that can take territories for the Lord. Arise, beloved, take your position in Christ. Get ready to do exploits.
