It's Time For a Change

let's go into the word for a few moments today I don't want to hold you long because I know you got a lot of things going on but today we've set aside this time we've set aside this moment we said this is my church time this is my service time it's when I go into the word of the Lord so today we're going to go into the book of Joshua Joshua is where we're going to go the very first chapter and I'm going to begin reading around the first verse I might skip around a little bit but the very first verse says now after the death of Moses the servant of the Lord it came to pass that the Lord spake unto Joshua the son of nun Moses as minister saying Moses my servant is dead now therefore arise and go over this Jordan thou and all of this people unto the land which I do give to them even to the children of Israel and every place that the sole of your foot shall tread upon that have I given unto you as I said unto Moses so if you wanted he's saying here walk on it if you want it you gotta walk on it down in verse 5 he says the Lord is telling him there shall not any man be able to stand before they all of the days of their life for as I was with Moses so shall I be with thee I will not fail thee I will not forsake thee be strong and of good courage for unto this people shalt thou divide for an inheritance the land which I swear unto their fathers to give them verse 7 only be thou strong and very courageous that thou mayest observe to do according to all the law which Moses my servant commanded they turn not from it turn not from what I have told you to now I don't care what's happening I don't care the wind what winds are blowing don't turn aside from what I have said to you don't turn to the right hand don't turn to the left that thou mayest prosper whatsoever thou wheresoever whithersoever thou goest this book of the law this word right here shall not depart out of thy mouth but thou shalt meditate therein day and night that thou mayst observe to do according to all that is written therein and when thou shalt make thy way and then thou shalt make thy way prosperous and then thou shalt have good success have I not commanded thee be do you hear that right there have I not commanded thee be strong be strong and of good courage be not afraid neither thou be thou dismayed for the Lord here we are again the LORD thy God is with thee whether so ever thou goest then commanded the officers of the people are then Joshua commanded the officers of the people saying pass through the host and command the people saying prepare you victuals fall within three days Oh y'all know something happens that that number three is big with God so within three days he shall pass over this Jordan to go in to possess the land which the Lord your God giveth you to possess prepare your victuals because within three days three days I'm telling you within three days something is getting ready to change may the Lord add the blessing to the reading of his word today I want to take the next few moments and just minister from the subject it is time for a change it is time for a change how many of you agree right there it you who it is time for something to change in my life spirit of God we thank you because we understand that you are the God that changes time was and you are the God that changes seasons and as we prepare now feast at your table may the word Lord that has been written ages ago become live in our hearts today encourage every man woman boy and girl speak to us make it a Rhema in our spirit God wherever they're watching from South Africa wherever around the world where people might be watching us today I pray that this word becomes live in them Lord encourage your people will thank you in advance for a change it's time for things to change in Jesus name Amen and amen you may be seated to listen to me you may be seated wherever y'all y'all sit on down take a load off if you were standing sit down you know it's funny but I have gotten word that some y'all stand for the reading of the word I love y'all for that I love you for that I have you know I love to preach about people in the scripture I loved to pull up characters and preach about them and Joshua really is a man who I have great appreciation for I grew up I didn't know a whole lot about him but I did grow up singing Joshua fought the Battle of Jericho that's if you were in a white church we would sing Joshua fought the battle if you were in an african-american church we'd say Joshua fit the Battle of Jericho but I grew up singing about Joshua and how the walls came tumbling down I knew the song before I knew much about the man but as I grew older I began to look into the life of Joshua the closer I looked the more I learned about him and the more I learned about him the more I began to respect him as a leader Joshua did not establish the free nation of Israel Moses was the one that that but Joshua respectfully succeeded Moses in this task he finished the work that Moses began and he led the people of God into victory by leading them into the land that God had promised Joshua taught has taught me a lot of things Joshua taught me how to remain submissive and how to remain respectful to God's chain of command because God does have a chain of command ease got a set time to bless all of our lives and Joshua understood about that set time he never once tried attempted to displace Moses his leadership even when Moses grew old and he couldn't do it as good as he had done it in earlier days but Joshua he always waited his turn and the way that he waited was important because the way that you wait for your turn is you need to wait respectfully and so Joshua waited respectfully and he waited with a very faithful spirit on all levels faithful on all levels now Joshua was a second generation leader Moses had led the the the parents out but Joshua was now dealing with the children of those parents that Moses had let out and he was a different kind of leader he was tired for one thing he was tired of all the stuff that the people had put Moses through he saw it and he was just tired of it and when it became his turn he made changes he was a very confrontational leader he was an in-your-face type of leader he was a no-nonsense kind of leader and and he would pay whatever price he had to pay to accomplish the will and and the purpose of God whatever had to be done Joshua was a man that would do it and he raised up a generation of people that would pay that price as well and he ultimately moved the nation of Israel the people of God into and he settled them into the promised land now one of the many words that I think of when I think about Joshua is the word courageous that's probably my top word because Joshua was a man that was courageous and and make no mistake about it the book of Joshua is not for those who are faint of heart it is not for wimps you don't just want to open this on a on a just a random day and and and make this oh yeah I'm gonna open this and understand this today you have got to be in a certain mind frame to be able to embrace the book of Joshua because this is a book about conquering this is a book about transition this is a book about acquisition it's a book about taking back what belongs to you and what God has already put your name on so as we go into the first chapter of this book the one thing I want you to notice about this chapter is that everything is moving but God everything is moving by God the children of Israel they're leaving slavery and so they are at the door of a new beginning now new beginnings are often good things but they can also be somewhat frightening they can even be challenging at times and so the people of God they are transitioning from being nomadic from being Wanderers from being rootless people and they are now becoming owners and proprietors and they are becoming possessors of property and possessors of the land and what they are moving into in to possess is rightfully theirs it belongs to them but they don't remember that they don't remember it they are at home but they have never been there before their father and their ancestors left there four hundred years ago and so they have no memory of what they are on the verge of possessing they have no memory of what they are on the verge of coming into all they know is that it's new now the problem that they are facing by the problem that they all are facing is they're facing a new future but they're facing a new future without their old leader so you know their leader was it was Moses my Moses wasn't just any leader okay he was God's chosen man he had been the voice in their life for 40 years Moses Moses you know Moses was he was the one that spoke face-to-face with God he was the one that God spoke to exclusively and showed God God showed Moses things and he didn't show anybody else you know who Moses was he was the man whose rod that when he put it out the the Red Sea began to roll back so that the children of Israel can walk through on dry ground Moses you know him he was the one that established the Covenant and the laws of God he was the one that prayed until manna fell down from heaven he was the one that cut off the tree trunk and threw it into the water and when he did the bitter waters of Marah became sweet waters the only problem is that Moses went up on the mountain and he never came back so now they are trying to figure out Who am I with how loza's how do I know what I need to know and get where I need to go with how Moses and they never really didn't know what happened to Moses they never got the body of their revered leader back God buried Moses and the scripture says that to this day no one really knows exactly where Moses is God had taken him upon the mountain to show him Canaan to show him the Promised Land and he said I'm gonna show this to you and you're gonna see it with your own eyes you're gonna see what the children of Israel are going to enter into but you yourself will not get there so it was they didn't know what had happened to him but this is it was God who told them listen my servant Moses is dead now when they heard that the man that had led them how the man that was there for them the man that had power with God who was leading the charge when they heard that he was dead they wept and they cried and they wept and they cried they cried for days days turned into weeks and the weeks turned into a month and they were distraught and they were distressed and they were completely disillusioned and here's why they were disillusioned because they was they were almost there I mean almost there now Moses is gone it's amazing what can happen when you're almost there they had pressed for forty years to get to the place that they were in every step of the journey was a step that they had taken by foot one step right behind another step every inch of the land had their footprints all over it they had walked through the blistering heat of of the day and the cold of the night they they knew what it was like to depend on God to be their daily bread not not bread that they could store up but they knew what it was like to believe God on a daily bread they knew that when they woke up in the morning that because they were connected to Moses that manna would be at the front door of their tent and it would be there in proportion to size of the family so you couldn't look at the family that had five in their tent and look at the family that had two in their tent and say this is not fair because God knows who needs what and he is always just even when it seems like it is unfair what each of them needed every day was to sustain them through this transition was within their reach it was brought daily to their front door it didn't notice here it did not justify what doesn't say that it fell into their mouths but the Bible said that it did come within their reach I said it did come within their reach so if you're sitting around today just with your mouth open waiting for God to drop a blessing into your mouth you might just need to shut your mouth and start reaching because your blessing is within reach hear me today your blessing is within reach you might have to stretch a little bit but God is faithful if he promised he will be faithful it is not God's job to pause you to open your mouth it's God's job to send it but it is our job to reach for it it is our job to stretch for it and this whole journey has been a journey that has been very traumatic for these people now they're dealing with the death of their leader so losing Moses was like trauma on top of trauma on top of trauma Moses because Moses was a true leader everybody that tells you today that they are leaders they are not always leaders they Moses was a true leader and and if you've ever had a true mother a true father a true leader a true Shepherd a true pastor if you've ever had a true leader then you understand just how much they are a gift from God into your life whether it's a leader in your family maybe it's somebody that the whole family looks up to whether it's somebody on your job a leader in your church a leader over the country whatever good leadership is always a blessing bad leadership however is a curse because the Bible says in proverbs 29 and 2 that when the righteous are in authority that the people rejoice but when a wicked man rules the people grown they they grow when wickedness is in charge everything that's up underneath it will begin to suffer and you know the truth is you can't make somebody a leader just because you give them a title or because you give them a position or because you vote them in or because you give them an office or you give them a degree that goes behind their name or because you give them power and you give them authority you can get them all of that stuff and it will never make them a leader because leadership is about perspective and Moses was a man that was a leader whenever Moses would open his mouth things would change when he stretched forth his rod things had to change when he lifted up his hands enemies were defeated he stopped plagues and he brought water up out of the rock but now the problem is he's gone so how how do we go forward with help Moses how do we get where we are going without Moses they cried they grieved they mourn and they did it for 30 days God gave him 30 days and then God said okay enough is enough Moses is gone but I am not gone Moses is dead but I am God and I am NOT dead and as well hear this as I was with Moses soul shall be with you as I was so shall I be as I was so shall I say that again as I was so shall I be everything in the text is changing and when things change in our lives it can make us fearful it can make us feel threatened it can make us trouble it can make us feel stressful when change comes in you got to have faith because you don't always have all the facts so you have to anchor into your faith when things are changing you don't always know what you think you need to know you don't always see what you need to see you don't always understand you know things become uncertain to you but but now more than ever in these moments is when you have to have your faith intact if you're going to embrace what is unknown so no matter what comes our way we got to hold on to our faith because our faith has its greatest relevance when everything around us is shifting and everything around us is moving and everything around us is changing the darker the days the brighter your faith will shine faith is a great stabilizer when everything in your life has become unstable when everything that you used to hold on to when everything that used to hold you up when everything that used to lead you into the unknown when everything that used to be there for you is no longer there for you when that which was there to support you is no longer there to support you that my friend is it might be troubling to us but it is also one of the greatest moments of our lives because it is in that moment that we discover God because it's when you run out of Moses that you run into God well I don't know who I'm talking to what somebody here today you need to let somebody that's listening to me just pastor Brady all I ever hand had was God all I know is God all I got to hold on to is God all I got going for me is God listen though if God before us he is more than the world against us that he said to them he said as I was so shall I be this is the only thing in the text that's not changing the territory is changing the atmosphere is changing the leadership is changing expectations are changing instructions are changing everything that can be shaken is being shaken and the only thing that is remaining the same is as I was so shall I be I am the same yesterday today and forever everything around you is shifting everything around you is rocking and reeling and shaking and moving and spinning everything in your life can change but God says I am with you I am still here and I got you I am the same God that had here yesterday and the God that had you yesterday will be the same God that has you tomorrow you are facing changes in your life who would have ever thought that 2020 would have brother so many changes but God said just remember in the middle of all of these changes that I am with you and I got you you're out of work but I got you you're living on unemployment but I got you your quarantine but I got you can't even go to church like you're used to going to church but I got you relationship status is changing but I got you health status is changing but I got you being threatened with eviction being threatened with foreclosure the odds are against you but rest assure that I got you in people under value.you and under to mate you know beyond the shadow of a doubt that I got you I am with you now let me tell you something right here though today's message might not be for everybody if you have made up your mind to just sit in your wilderness and die then today's blessing in a message is not going to bless you if you made your mind up I'm just gonna throw myself a pity party I'm gonna feel sorry for myself and I'm gonna cry myself to sleep for the rest of my life then you might want to flip the step to turn the channel right now you might want to click off right now because they know need and you listening to me any further because today's message is for people that have made up their mind yeah it's been tough but I'm going on I've made up my mind that I'm going on I filled my help in this empty room today oh I've been through a lot but I'm going on I've had to cry but I'm going home I'm uncertain but I'm going home I'm being challenged what I'm going on I don't know what's next but I'm going on I don't know when I'm gonna the promised land but I am going home because I've come too far from where I started from nobody told us that the road would be easy but I don't believe that he brought me this far to leave me so I'm going on no my life may be filled with variables my life is filled with inconsistencies just when you think this is what its gonna happen you turn on the news and something else happens just when they tell you don't wear a mask it ain't necessary then you turn on the news and they say only home without your mask just all of those things are shifting and moving and changing when things uh you realize things are completely out of your control you got a make up in your mind in those moments yes all of these are variables in my life and in the middle of it I'm gonna find a way to focus my eyes my heart my my attention my spirit on everything that is absolute and not on that which is variables I'm gonna focus on the absolute in my life and what is that that is God I'm gonna focus on him when I wake up in the morning I'm gonna remind myself that he is God and beside him there is no other there is no god like him there is no God beside him we sing there is no God like Jehovah I am God and as I was with you six months ago so shall I be with you today God is saying I am who I said I am no matter what you're facing no matter what season you are in no matter who left you no matter who died no matter who gave up on you no matter who died in the wilderness no matter who lied about you no matter who betrayed you no matter who divorced you no matter who forsook you no matter who failed you God said I will not fail you look at God making promises to his people in the midst of a crisis he's saying no matter who did I won't no matter who did trust me when I tell you that I will not leave you nor will I forsake you God is telling Joshua some things here he said Joshua the people are unsettled he said so go walk among them and when you walk among them I want you to tell them what to expect tell them I said to be strong tell them I said to be very courageous God over and all and over again throughout this first chapter here he repeats himself be strong and be of good courage be strong and be of good courage why does God keep saying be strong and be of good courage I'll tell you why because we are facing things that's trying to take our strength we are facing things that's trying to wipe us out we're facing things that's trying to break us down we're facing things that's trying to weaken us we're facing things that's trying to steal our courage so he is commanding Joshua to command the people to be strong and of good courage this is not a suggestion Church he is telling them be strong I am commanding you be strong hear me Potter's house north hear me whoever's watching me today you've got to be strong in this hour you've got to be of good courage because if you're not strong if you don't have courage you might not survive so be strong in the body in you but be strong in the Lord tell yourself you got to get it together I remember my momma she she I watched her go through soup so much she buried to her mother her father she buried two brothers she buried she buried three children she buried two husbands my mama went through a whole lot of loss she was a hard worker she would work she bought her a house and was determined to pay for that house she was gonna pay it off and is exactly that's exactly what she did she would work double shifts she'd worked two eight-hour shifts and then she'd come home after 16 hours at work and she'd go pick beans out of her garden and she'd sit there and break her beans and cut her corn off the cob and put him in the freezer and she was preparing for her family while she was on very little sleep she was a hard worker and when she'd sit down in her chair to rest she wouldn't sit there for very long she would she would arouse herself and I can still hear my mama saying Rosie you better straighten up and fly right she would tell herself straighten up and fly right there's a reason I heard that there's a reason that it's stuck in my head because there's been some times that I've had to remind myself you're stronger than this you got you got more strength than you think you have that's what she was telling herself you got things that you got to do you got to pull yourself together you gotta pull yourself up by your bootstraps you got whatever it takes to go where you need to go and to do what you gotta do and just say what you gotta say my mama had a strength that was beyond her strength she had courage that was beyond her courage and I'm just telling somebody today you do too you got more strength than you know that you have and the reason that my mama had it and the reason you got it and the reason I got it is because the Lord is with us it's not because we're so strong anybody else let me tell you something they wouldn't be able to carry what we carry and they might look at you and say how can you have joy how can you sing the song of the Lord in a strange land because wherever I am the Lord is with me and so God is telling just Rolla remind my people God is telling pastor brady remind my people that I am with the bear oh I am with them I preach this text so many times I've preached it so many times and and the way I've preached it and the way I read it I preached it that the prize of the tix was the promised land but I want to tell you today that the real prize of the Texan might not be the promised land but it might just be the promise that his presence is with us I will be with you and here's the good news Church that if you got here and if you make him your goal you he will be with you no matter where you are and having God with you is everything don't misunderstand me just because you got him with you does not mean that you won't have to fight it doesn't mean that you won't struggle from time to time it doesn't mean that you won't cry sometimes but the promise is that whatever you're doing I'm right there with you I don't care who left you I am there with you and as a matter of tack let me go on the record and say to you out of pure experience that there will be times that you got to fight there will be times that you want to throw in the towel somebody right now is in one of the biggest fights of their life but god interrupted your schedule for me to tell you I'm in this fight with you when if you're facing an uncertain season you gotta know that he's with you if you're in a storm he's with you if the wind is about to blow you off your foundation rest assure that God is with you in a crisis he is with you in the unemployment line he is with you be strong today and be of good courage because I got you I got you the only thing that is really certain is the fact that I got you I got you in your fight I got you in your decisions I got you in your business I got you in the classroom I catch you on your job I got you when you're strong I got you in your week I got you in your proudest moments I got you in your life's most embarrassing moments I am with you and that is my promise to you when your back is against the wall I won't turn around and walk away from you when you fail I won't leave you disappoint me I am God and I still be with you well somebody oughta shout right now in your living room so God talks to Moses I mean God talks to to Joshua when he talks to him about the people he talks to him about the promise and the third thing he talks to him about is he talks to him about the priority through somebody holler priority priority he said Joshua tell the people pastor Brady tell the people that I want to be the priority in their life tell them I said to create a space of devotion for me tell them that I want them to meditate in my word both day and night because I got to know that I am a priority in their life I got to know that I've got to know because if you are in this simply for vote for the right reason God said I am gonna bless you but the way I'm gonna know that you're in it for the right reason is that you carve out space for me and you make me the priority of your life and he notice what he said he said I want him to meditate in my word day and night and I want you to do it outside of the promised land you ain't got there yet but I want to know out here that you will make me a priority I want to know if you're grateful before you go in I want to know if you're grateful before you get there I want to know if you're grateful when you're broke I want to know if you're grateful when you confuse I want to know if you're grateful wouldn't you feeling sick I want to know if you're grateful when you're lonely I want to know that you understand that I'm still God even when you don't understand me I want to know that you will wipe the tears from your face and say you're still God I still love you I don't understand you but I magnifier you will never stop being card in my life I just want to know that you know that I swear I'm gonna bless you I got the land I've already designated it for you but I gotta know that your priorities are straight I got to know that your heart is open to me for who I am and not the things that I can get you because if you love me for who I am you can get what I've got I just gotta know that you love me for who I am and not just what I can do for you and not just what I can give you I don't love me for the things because I can get your things I've got a know that your love is anchored into me because there will be moments that things will come and things will go but if you'll seek first the kingdom of God and all of his righteousness all these things shall be added unto you when you make me a priority you will be stable in every star stable to every man I'll make you stable things are gonna come things are gonna go jumps we'll come and go friends will come and go finances will come and go but if your anchor in me you're gonna be alright when those things come and go so Joshua tell them make time for me devote yourself to me not two things devote yourself to me show me that I am valuable in your life because whatever is valuable to you you make time for if it's valuable to you you make time goddess just say tell them that I want them to put me into their daily routine I told you a couple weeks ago one of the ways you can do that is by GW f and g WL what does that mean God's Word first and God's Word last at the beginning of your day open his word at the ending of your tape open his word because he said if you will make me a priority I will bless your life so he talks to Joshua about the people about the promise he talks to Joshua about the priority and now he talks to Joshua about the purpose he said Moses is thin but my purpose is not dead the way that I was doing it is dead but I'm still God and I'm gonna still do it and as I was with Moses he said I am gonna be with you he said I am gonna do through you what I said that I would do through Moses you know what he's telling us right there he's telling us that this is not about personality this is about my purpose to be quite frank God we don't see that God mourn the death of Moses God wanted his purpose done and if Moses wasn't going to it God said okay I'll talk to somebody who will god only cares about getting his purpose done and he will use anybody who will make themselves available to him he'll use animals he'll use donkeys he'll use whales just ask Jonah about that he'll use people that have problems and issues in their life ask Rahab she was a prostitute but God used her in all of the mess she had going on in her life she will use idolaters that's what he did when it chose Abraham he will use a roof who is a Moabite woman who knows absolutely nothing about God but when God gets ready to snatch somebody out and use them he will use them he is looking for somebody whose heart says I might mess up but my heart longs for you I wanna be in your wheel I wanna be in your purpose oh the safest place in the whole wide world is in the purpose of God because he will protect you big while he's protecting his purpose he will protect you as you are a part and the reason he protects you and protects me and ain't because we're so great but his purpose is so great many are the plans of a man's heart but his purpose shall prevail all things work together for good to those who love God and are the called according to what to purpose he's saying no matter what you find yourself in no matter what you find yourself facing I will get in it and I'll work it together they've meant it for evil but watch me work it together you know I'm gonna rock it together for you because my purpose matters to you and you're true to my purpose and when you are in my purpose he is saying right there I'll get in your battle and I'll fight it for you I'll subdued your enemies because now if my purpose is your purpose then your enemies are my enemies I'll pull down powers and principalities I'll Drive back Pharaoh's I'll heal your diseases I'll strengthen you in your old age and I'll years to your life I'll add years to your life you don't believe it ask Hezekiah Hezekiah was dying the prophet of God even said the real prophet of God even said he was cold died but Hezekiah turned his face to the wall and he began praying to God and he committed himself to the purpose of God and gave him 15 more years to live his life I dare you today to get into the purpose of God get into something that's bigger than you are get into something that's not about you and it might not look like you thought it was gonna look and it might not feel somebody needs to hear me today it might not feel like you thought it was going to feel but if you get into his purpose he might just let you live have life and have it more abundantly I am Alive beyond the shadow of a doubt today because of purpose I dare you to get intentional about his purpose and don't let anything drive you away from the purpose of God not a desire not a door not a dream not a dollar not a man not a woman now I'm preaching in here today not an opportunity not a contract not a friendship not a relationship because if I compromise the purpose of God then I compromise my blessing because my protection isn't my purpose and my provision is in my purpose I am blessed today because I showed up when he said show up and I found myself going when his head cold and I said what he said say and because her path bless whoever I'm talking to the day stay committed to his purpose I'm on my last point now you say I don't know what the purpose is well I have preached on that before and it's imperative that we know what the purpose is but the way I found my purpose was I got behind somebody who knew theirs and every time they moved I moved and every time they holiday holiday and every time they praised I praised and every time they worshiped I worship I got behind them that's just exactly what Ruth did when she got behind the Gleaners she didn't know how to blame but she followed people who knew how to glean and where did it lead her it led her to the purpose of God for her life it let her out of Moab and it let her into Bethlehem Judah let me tell you something if you don't know what to do get behind somebody that does and quit worrying about what I didn't think it would look like this I thought God hurts I mean I just listen you're getting older quit trying to make your life happen and just accept what God has given you I don't know who I'm talking to today but somebody better hear this word you're thinking oh I got it vision this away and I am going go gonna go that way I'm just doing this right here until the the path clears for me to do that you're go full around and be old and not realize you are on the path the whole time trust in the Lord trust his plan over yours don't ask him to come in and start black god bless this god bless that find out what God is blessing and if he has given you a space in that blessing work it with all that you've got and say if he won't bless your life talked enemies to talk to them Joshua about the people talk to them about the promise talk to them about the priority talk to them about the purpose number 5 and this is my last point he said talk to them about the provision he said they gonna need you to tell them this because for 40 years I have provided everything that they needed I brought it to the 10th to the door of their tent but I'm over it now I'm through passing out freebies to people and through bringing it via rooms I'm in tenth service I'm through making it easy for you tell the people has said prepare your victuals what does that mean he said tell him I said to start preparing their own food now this is the first telling that he has made this Joshua generation have to prepare themselves they have never had to cook can you imagine mama what you doing I don't know I'm just I'm catching this animal I'm gonna have to figure it out but I'm hungry mama well hold on I know I'm gonna get it they have never imagined how stressful it must have been God said the manner has ceased and when the manna ceases it's a sign that you have got to prepare and listen to this it's not a sign that you can't eat Oh somebody hear me it's not a sign that you won't have anything to eat it's just a sign that God says I'm getting ready to do it different in your life just because it ceases to be that it ceases to be easy does not mean that it ceases to be it just means in the course of providing for you God will change his methodology from time to time here's a big FYI for you just because it doesn't come as easy as it always had it does not mean that it won't come and by the way things that are easy are always temporal sooner or later you're gonna have to get your hands in the situation God said I've been doing it for you I've been doing it for you but now tell them they don't have to get their hands in it I don't know if you were here I'd say touch your neighbor and tell him put your hands in and get your hands in it he said I'm still gonna feed you but you're gonna have to get your hands involved and God God in this quarantine time in the coronavirus in the middle of everything that we have been facing God said I have now got you all to myself I set aside some time in 2020 to pull you off to myself he's saying because I'm taking the provision and I'm putting it in the hands of the believer he said I've been dropping it at your doorstep but now I'm getting ready to put it in your hands that's exactly what Boaz said when he looked out and he saw Ruth leaning in the fields he said I don't want her to have to pull up pull that blessing down I want some of you who are Reapers to just pour her some handfuls of purpose and lay him down where she can see him God is I want your hands available you have been having to stretch for it but now if your hands are available if your hands are clean and your heart is pure I'm getting ready to put it in your hands you've been destabilized you've been just lefted you've been displaced by all kinds of stuff but God is saying it's time for you to grow it is time for you to grow I've been giving you miracles here and I've been giving you miracles there but miracles sister be blessings when you stop when they stop us from growing so God said we're getting ready to take you I've got to know that your hands are available get your hands in it why because in three days three is the number of Resurrection three days you said in three days we're crossing over into a new dimension but you can't go into that do too if you know if you're not willing to get your hands into some stuff God wants somebody that's listening to me today to know that everything in your life is getting ready to shift you've been too stabilized I don't know what's going on what you have been - pinned it on now you can't depend on so you're having to depend on God but he said be strong and a good courage Moses is dead but as I was so shall I be get your hands ready Potter's House North get your heart ready get your mind already because God is about to put you on the other side this plane I'm moving from just being your provider into being your progressive and I'm don't worry about requesting you and you gotta worry about the profusion I'm about to progress you I am about to be an adventure I am about to be a promoter I'm about to be an accelerator I'm about to be you show you that I am your way out no way Rosa your way through and your way around and the reason that I took you out of Egypt where you didn't have enough it was not enough not enough grip not enough straw not enough nothing and the reason I took you out of that and put you in the wilderness where I gave you just enough every day is because of my plan was to keep you moving because now I'm gonna take you into the Promised Land where you will have more than enough I don't know but somebody needs to know you are about to be on the other side of this somebody it's getting ready for change I said somebody is somebody is getting ready to cross over
