Achan in the camp
“Then he brought his household man by man, and ACHAN the son of Carmi, the son of Zabdi, the son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah, was taken.” Joshua 7:18. The Oasis of Hope Devotional for 2day! Until u recognize & deal with d enemy within, it will be impossible to have power over d external enemy.
Many are ready to pray, fast, give sacrificially, &, work for God, but are equally determined not to give up certain characters flaws. God cannot dwell in d midst of sin. In fact, He will withdraw Himself from d presence of His people as long as they continue to operate in it.
Beloved, could we be d one holding back d great blessings, healings, and deliverance of God for our lives, family & generation? The Word of God always works and if something is not working in our lives, there is a reason for it. As long as we would obey d Lord there would be nothing that could stop us from taking possession of all that God said we could have. The only thing that could stop us would be ourselves. Samson refused to deal with his lust, and it became his downfall! What is that secret sin causing us, our people, & our church from experiencing victory? Would we harden our hearts and refuse to repent? Achan stopped d blessing of God from not only flowing out into his life, his family, but also from flowing out into d children of Israel. How do u know when d enemy is inside: anger; unforgiveness; pride; stealing; failing to control yo appetites; worry, lust; doubt & anxiety; bitterness; when d flesh is in control of yo life; Hatred; secret sin; fear; disobedience, e.t.c. Sin separates us from God and if it separates us from God then it separates us from His blessings. Today, if u will turn away from yo sin & come to Jesus, He will do a miracle. What is d Achan in yo life? Get rid of d sin by confessing it. Get rid of d enemy within and d enemy without cannot hurt us. “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” 1 John 1:9. Prayer: Arrows of iniquity & secret sin in my life, melt away by d Blood of Jesus.
Hav a Testimony Thursday!
U r Blessed! Shalom.
