The Church of Jesus Christ is in a time of crossover. God is giving us the opportunity to cross over, take over and possess new land and promises. But we must be willing to follow the same pattern of instructions given to His first nation, Israel, to secure them.
This podcast will give you some insight on those instructions as you prepare to move out of your wilderness and into your land of promise!
Step 1 — Circumcision — Josh. 5:1-9
In preparation for your crossover, you must be willing to submit to the pain of circumcision — you must allow God to cut away the excess to ensure proper reproduction in your new land. Circumcision is a symbol of new eternal covenants with the Almighty.
Step 2 — Your diet must change — Josh. 5:10-12
Your spiritual diet and taste will change in your crossover place. Manna prepares you and changes your taste to desire living bread. Jesus said, “Is it not written: ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God'” (Matt 4:4). In your new land, only God’s Word can sustain you.
Step 3 – You must have a renewed commitment to holiness — Josh 5:15
You must maintain an awareness that your new place is a holy place. Sins, iniquities, trespasses and lawlessness from your past cannot cross over with you. Clean yourself up!
Step 4 — Possessing lands and securing territories requires you to fight!
No fight … no win — No win … no in! Having knowledge of spiritual warfare is not enough. You must possess the skills needed to fight and win! Knowing your enemies, your weaponry and God’s strategies to wage warfare will be crucial to possessing and maintaining your place of victory.
Step 5 — Stop being religious and recognize why you’re being defeated! — Josh. 7:1-26
In this new place, you must be willing to identify the sin or behaviors you being defeated by. God wants you to win but your victory must be secured by your ability to kill Achin in you and destroy the accursed things in your life. Achin must be dealt with harshly. A renewed commitment to sanctification is the key to victory in every battle! {eoa}
