Moving In

The Lord’s message to Joshua- See, I have delivered Jericho into your hands! (Joshua 6). It's moving day for the Israelites. God has brought them through the Jordan River and it's time to move into the promised land (or as Meyer calls it, the God Place). The plan is simple: March around the city once a day for 7 days, led by the priests. On the 7th day, march around 7 times. Blow the trumpets & shout. The walls will collapse. Simple plan, yet it required great faith.

God’s plans are not our plans. His plans require faith and trust in Him. His plans require obedience to Him. God wants us to trust Him. He wants us to lay everything down before Him so that He may move us in to His place… the God Place. You see, sometimes it’s a lot easier to be afraid of the future than to trust God with it. But that is just what we must do- trust Him. And God honors the confidence His people place in Him- and He shows Himself worthy of our trust!

God has a future for Western Hills! And it’s up to us to not let fear or uncertainty get in the way of doing what God has planned for us! We must listen to Him & obey. And it will be amazing what walls He knocks down as we MOVE IN through faithful ministry that lifts up Jesus! And we trust that He will lead us, day by day.

Keep Praying!
