July 3 ~ I HAVE NO REASON TO FEAR: WHAT GOD HAS FOR US IS OURS, BUT WE MUST POSSESS IT

July 3 ~ I HAVE NO REASON TO FEAR: WHAT GOD HAS FOR US IS OURS, BUT WE MUST POSSESS IT   

 

Deuteronomy 1:21 “Behold, the LORD thy God hath set the land before thee:  go up and possess it, as the LORD God of thy fathers hath said unto thee; fear not, neither be discouraged.”

What is God requiring of you in order to take possession of His promises? Are you listening, seeking, and obeying the Spirit of God? When the time came for Israel to possess the Promised Land, the vast majority of them succumbed to discouragement and fear.  But as Joshua and Caleb believed and obeyed God despite what they saw, let us have this same mind to lean and depend on God and grasp by faith the things He has promised.  Possess it!
