INTRODUCTION
First things first, let me apologize for the delay in publishing and ask that you pray for me as I go through these challenging times on my travels in Europe. Getting a computer has never been so hard in my life plus my Social Media is constantly invaded. Please bear with me!
Well, Mon peuple it is that time of the month again, the time for the Unchanging Changer that changes things. I hope you lived some of your dreams in the past month. Be reminded that we have moved on from ‘Just Do It’ to ‘Turning Dreams into Reality’. Be careful of what people want you to ‘Just Do’ it might destroy your life.
So many things to tell you from where I left you last month. I have covered quite a few kilometres and gotten quite a few tickets. I have also met one or two interesting characters. The way to deal with the latter is to tell them to read my Blog after that I have no more trouble. However, let me pick up at my forced visit to Dunkirk, France. I was actually trying to get out of Belgium to London and via my Google search thought that was the best route. I visited Oostende in Belgium to find out Belgium does not have a direct route to England anymore. I ended up in Dunkirk on a cold Friday night with a lot of Nazis and Mafias on my tail. We will deal with what is taking place with these loose cannons. Of course the Station Warden decided to shut down the station as soon as I arrived which was about 9:30 p.m even though there were other trains stopping at the station. I really cannot abide the small stations, they close too early. The major ones in the town closes at 1:30 to 2:00 a.m, hence my feet are warm up to that time and then they are cold from 2:00 a.m. to 4:00 a.m when the station re-opens. This station did not reopen until 5:00 a.m. In the interim I walked around exploring the town, just to see how it looked, nothing exciting! There is a car ferry system across the English Channel but no passenger system. Then I found myself at a War Memorial (or cemetery). I had a good prayer session. My feet were cold when I started but by the time I got into my session my feet were warm. One of my prayer points was (the only one I will reveal to you), Father, in the name of Jesus look how you have helped these Europeans in one of the darkest points of their history you sent the Americans to help them. Daddy, I mean innocent American blood has been shed on these shores. Daddy, look what these Europeans are doing in Africa and all over the world. I said, Father, in the name above every other name the name of Jesus as it was with the blood of innocent Abel, I invoke the blood of these innocent American soldiers to speak at this time. Father, give them… Unuh too faas (you are too inquisitive) I will not give any more information. I really do not know how long I prayed for then I went to roam around the town and then stood waiting for the station to open. At one point I went to warm my feet in a hotel but the pierced nose Caucasian fellow ran me out after five minutes.
I must pause here to tell you that the way I did my blogs in the past I cannot continue to do so in the future. The simple reason being in the past I used to have friends that I spoke to on the telephone and on Social Media now I have nobody, when I have nothing to do I read my Bible. Jesus tells no one your secrets. Hence, the only personal information the Nazis and Mafias are privy to they garner from my Blog or my stolen scribbles. Thus, they have been milking my Blog and messing up all the people and relationships that I am developing as I go along. In the future unless the person asked me to mention them personally all names of people and places and detailed information about what I have done will be excluded from my Blog. I just give bare facts and move along no analysis.
Speaking of facts, while I sat waiting on the train in the station in Dunkirk I fell asleep and one crook stuck me in my feet by opening up the slashes on my feet. I keep asking myself why is everyone running to Europe, obviously chasing an illusion that the continent is rich. Let me advise that there are a lot of refugees up here; a lot. They come from all over Africa, Asia and the Middle East which means that in terms of Human Resources to do criminality persons can pick choose and refuse, which is exactly what they are doing. I would have to write too many pages to tell you the types of antics that they get up to. The only thing they do is upset me more and more. Africa needs to be cleaned up to prevent the pride of Africa coming to Europe and be made to indulge in questionable life styles in order to survive. Unfortunately, this is what is happening to most of the young men. On another topic of concern to me there seems to be a market in the first World for old men who are in need of partners. I keep telling the old fools to go to church, of course they do not want to, they would have to clean up their lifestyles. I tell them I have been cleaning up mine for over twenty years if they come near me I will slit their throats.
On a happier note on my travels, the Nazis and Mafias keep messing up my travel plans so I need to have a number of routes worked out. I have almost travelled out the whole of northern France. I keep ending up in these remote villages. I ended up in one and decided to explore and had a ‘Coronation Market’ like experience. When I meet you all I will tell you about it. Let us examine the sermon at Hillsong Paris, it had some very good points about connecting but in terms of Raphleta, let us revise my case to set the records straight. You can also revise earlier Blogs to get the story straight (Oops forgot most of these introductions have been deleted) I need a quiet Island by myself to do all the stuff I need to get done, business, writing, Law etc. Moving along the fact of the matter is that when the Nazis and Mafias came after me I was in church. I remember the African Pastor tried to do everything to get me to leave. He did not have to be unchristian like, all he had to do was ask me nicely. People, those days I was very naive (we will not use the old word anymore). Thus, it was the ‘Christians’ who almost killed me. When I returned to Jamaica. I went back to my ‘fellowship’. My Pastor had to buy me a pair of shoes to wear to church because all mine were locked away at the Kingston Port and coming out of Canada all I had were my two Mississauga bus tickets and two Toronto Transit train tokens.. The Politicians had such a field day in the church that they had me also signing in at the church door to enter the building. They have gone as far as to emaciate the Articles and Memorandum of Association of the church at the Registrar of Companies in order to remove some of us from the document. Thank God that He does not need a Registrar of Companies for his information. He knew my prayer life before all of you. What you are witnessing is what took place in my living room, Jamaica Mutual Life and Island Life restrooms for years. I am just being advertised now by God.
The sermon at Hillsong was very good. I highly recommend it to new Christians and even the lukewarm people I keep meeting in these churches. Your relationship with your Christian brother is indeed higher than with your blood brother born of the same mother and father as promulgated by Jesus Himself, the only perfect example St. Matthew 12 verses 46 - 50, St. Luke 8 verses 19 - 21. Unfortunately, to date I have yet to experience this kind of relationship or consecration in the church. Before I proceed, I would like to mention a note of caution to a number of you Pastors who have gotten donations from the Nazis and Mafias just plain and simple you cannot twist the Gospel to assuage your consciences. Remember Proverbs 13 verse 18. Another thing, someone cannot be in need and you know they are in need and you are telling them in order to help them they need to join your church. I am glad Jesus was not like that I cannot think what would have happened to most of us. This was Jesus St. Matthew 9 verse 36, St. Mark 6 verse 34. That is why I came in pulling my slippers and left pulling my slippers my soul has already been bought hook line and sinker. I know whose I am! In conclusion, to the matter my God will have to do the connection this time and I will know when it is the right time because the fleeces are out there. I am trying to avoid blatant christian betrayal. Literally put, I am trying to avoid the Judas’ that think they need the money and there are a lot of these and the Pharisees and Saducees who feel their positions are being threatened. I am in no hurry to lose any more of my kink. Plus, I am enjoying the lack of clutter God and I alone.
Here I am at the bus terminal in Bercy, Paris on my way to London concluding my Blog on December 9. Well let us start with the Church Service I attended on Sunday at Hillsong again. The first time I heard the Sermon preached on the donkey there I was nodding my head in agreement not knowing I was the donkey. It was preached by Pastor Matthew Ashimolowo at House of Praise, Mississauga during the Making of Champions Conference. I have heard a number of versions of the same sermon but none of the sermons stuck. I had forgotten about this sermon, then the Pastor preached on the same scripture in St. Mark 11verses 1 - 11. One thing I seem to remember from Pastor Matthew’s sermon was that he went into the fact that the donkey was tied there not being used and a whole lot of stuff about the poor donkey and the significance of the two ways that met the location where the donkey was tied. Lord help my Holy Ghost!! You should have seen my face with concern for the poor donkey! On Sunday there was a play by the children about this donkey in addition to the sermon. People, from the get go the Spirit was unwilling and the body needed sleep with all the little cutey, cutey going on on stage I went to sleep immediately. I woke up briefly at the end of the play and I heard a little of the sermon, most of the time I slept like a babe. I tell you people, church sleep is the best sleep because the night before the corrupt and crooked Pakistanis almost cut off my feet in a night bus. I tell you I do not know how I could have overlooked these criminals all this time. They are so corrupt along with their South American partners. I ended up in a remote area with six of them; one was telling me they were going to Basel. I said ‘Basel, where is that? I tell you people most times Daddy just blind me to situations when they are happening because he knows what my reaction is going to be. I am now realizing that this was supposed to be a trap. They were to have invited me and I was to go with them like the Sheep that I am. If I had realized what was happening there and then I would have given them a proper Jamaican tracing and told them if they came near me I would call out for rape and the police. However, the fellows were quite polite and indecisive. I saw a bus passing and recognized the destination and ran in the direction of the bus. Of course the driver ignored me, things were not going as planned! Anyway, I continued to the bus stop behind another black fellow who was in the area (why are we not surprised) who seems to have been there to watch things unfold. We eventually got a bus which took us to La Chapelle and then a bus from La Chapelle to Gare de Nord where I was witness to the Third World type travel in the First World, Paris. The Police had to be called to got the bus door closed and got the bus moving.
In the continued evil, criminal network one of the nights while I was in Calais the Nazis and Mafias sent their drug dealer to tell me he could help me. This is one of the nights the Holy Spirit sat on my lips again because I really don’t know what I would tell this Caucasian fool. The train I planned to take to return to Paris was cancelled deliberately to leave me in the cold. I even had to draw my knife on a foolish and offensive Somalian fellow who dared to grab on to me me without my permission. Fear not people the Police is always within earshot because they are also the architect of some of these plays. Most times after these minions are finished you see the Police drive up, smiling. I had to tell the ones in Calais that they are crooked and I hope they got enough money for putting me out in the cold. Everywhere I go in France men are stopping men and are offering me money for sex. The last one I asked how much does an episode cost he said he could give me up to Fifty Euros I told him that was too cheap and he was to go do something with his life. I used to think prostitutes advertised their wear but with me, who is covered from head to toe in some big ugly sweaters that does not seem to matter. The last little fellow from the Cameroon I had to tell to go on his way and go make life. I had to ask if that is how cheap sex was Fifty Euros per adventure. Lord help my Holy Ghost! Reminded me of when I was in Jamaica and my brothers for some reason under the orders of the Politicians used to crush up the money and give it to me. I asked not what was the meaning of such foolishness because I know it would not be pleasant.The politicians in Jamaica are very warped people. Everywhere I go these men are being told my age. I really do not know what is the problem. As one gentleman asked me if all I did was go to church, yes, was there anything else? If I was not in church or at a business meeting I was in my bed by eight o’clock p.m. wrapped up with a book or my Bible. I had my recorder playing a sermon or music. In Jamaica you can safely listen to the Gospel for twenty four hours so my radio was always on love F.M. My Spirit has been fine tuned over the years to listen to only positive messages. When I went to Jaycees meeting and they were partying I was in my room reading or having a milk bath and doing my nails. My Jaycees President had one of the best minds I have encountered to date so our discussions were always exciting and exhilarating. I keep a very short account with the Lord. What you people call crisis in the First World in my Third World they are character forming exercises. In the Third World Jesus is still Lord and we know that there is always mañana. The Bible said the pleasures of sin last only for a season, let us say I have had my season that is why you all cannot tempt me Hebrews 11 verses 24 - 26. That is the reason why I had all my thirty two teeth minus one and you all have decided to destroy some more with your wicked selves. Just go in my mouth because you are ‘dior’ and rip up my teeth. That is why you have injected me to destroy my knees and is trying to cripple me because I have lived a good life and I refuse to have you defile my person. Please stop putting your poisonous white substance in my hair to destroy my kink and stop blackening my skin you damn criminals. I do not get my health from a bottle but from the Holy Spirit you all might want to try Him and stop depending on your money.
The people can have no peace because of the Nazis and the Mafias all the hobos, idlers, unemployed, homosexuals, lesbians, drug dealers and Tattoo artists, male everywhere I go. I am saying to myself is this foreign. I thought only we in the Third World were lazy and did not want to work. My disappointment in all of this is that Pastors have taken money from these people. It is painful to sit back and watch the manipulation and cynicism by their actions. The mockery of the church. It is only because we know that Jesus will have the final say in all of this. The Sunday, I was going to church in Paris a lady was following me. These black people in France are told to follow me but not to assist me in any way just inform on me. When I saw her following me I just said help police, someone is stalking me She quickly went on her way.
Fortunately, for me I had a little youngman from the Cameroon who lived most of his life in France assisted me with my bus fare to London. I had enough but because my card is not working I can make no payments online and when you buy a ticket over the counter there is a surcharge of Three Euros. The youngman is a Physicist with his Ph.D. He was sent to try and convince me that there cannot be only one way to God. I told him I served an omnipotent God. In the end we agreed to disagree because I am not in any long argument if you cannot show me an empty tomb. Then he tried to convince me about Darwin’s Theory of Evolution. I just told him that it is a theory. I am not arguing about any theory, Darwin went to his bed had tummy ache and the devil gave him a download. I wanted to tell someone a very long time that a theory is a theory. If you are a student of science you understand what a theory is versus a law for example Newton Laws of Motion. Anyway people, Natural Sciences are beyond the scope of this blog you will have to do your own research. He was waiting on his bus so we went to the National Library of France where we sat and talked and then started a poem on Africa. It is a good poem I would have loved to finish it. Of course people you know who are in the background at their manipulative best. As I have said on FaceBook if they want a complete analysis they are to pay my fees. I will give them all the information they need. Damn waste of time and evil people! Suffice it to say the young man gave me his email address I do not know when it was stolen. I tell you the criminal network is very wide. I left two Bibles at the airport and suffice it to say, that is the end of that. There goes eight Bibles since the commencement of this episode. I am hoping the Nazis and Mafias will return the Gideon Bible I borrowed from the Chaplaincy at the airport. I needed an English version to do some translation. There goes my nice French Bible. At Jesus House I asked for a Bible and was told there was none. I am going to have to start memorizing the first five books of the Bible like a Jew. Yes people I have started my demonstration against the Nigerians, they brought this lady out of retirement to tackle me on Sunday. She says she is an Evangelist. Of course the Nazis and Mafias are trying to tell me I need salvation.The placard people said ‘BROTHEL
OR CHURCH?
DECIDE!
AS FOR ME, MY
VAGINA IS
MY OWN AND
IT IS NOT
FOR SALE!
In this dispensation I am taking no prisoners. I need my life back and not to be chased around the world by a big criminal network. Make no mistake they are pure rich criminals the worst sort. Next time it will take more than an Evangelist to move me, they will have to bring out the World Council of Churches. I am not saved but they continuously try to disturb my prayer life. I mean everywhere i go they set up traps for me. If i am not saved we are all serving the same God and as Jesus said to other religious people a kingdom divided against itself cannot stand St. Mark 3 verses 22 - 26.
Before I go any further I would like to make a serious comparison between giving in Europe and in the United States of America, in the latter I found that there was a Spirit of liberality. What I am finding is the spirit of the Scrooge over Europe. People in the USA ran me down to give me money. When I went to Walmart and opened my placard in no time my coffers were full or almost full. I cannot tell you how many days I had to beg for Sixteen Euros in France. These people are tight and the Nazis and Mafias made them even tighter. Resulting in the fact that I would rather do without than beg. Hence, the reason why I decided I should go to America and then leave for Europe in the first place, my passage would have been much easier. Then my passports was stolen to try and stop me. The only people I have experienced as hard as the Europeans are the Canadians. I tell you people spirits know spirits make no mistake!!
I tell you Paris is indeed Africa’s toilet, people from Algeria, Morocco, West Africa, idlers all over the place. Then add the Asians, Bangladeshians, Pakistanis and to a lesser extent the Indians. Everybody looking for a breakthrough. If I lay myself careless they gone with me like they did with my bag. Right as I am writing there are a lot of Desperados standing and looking at me. They come in all shapes and sizes. I went to protest in front of the National Assembly in Paris, that is the House of Parliament. I tell you people you would think the place was under attack by an army a barricade of Police cars I stopped counting at fifteen, vehicles surrounded the place. They even told me I had to go across the street. I just walked around the Concorde Place.
Here we go again Daddy, the criminal network has expanded. I needed to pursue my law suit in Canada in keeping with the stinginess in Europe. Canada had to give me a teleconferencing number which was blocked by British Telecom along with all my emergency numbers. Now I will have to go back to Canada. People I was hoping not to have to do that because I have developed an intense dislike of Canada. The thought of having to go back there is not pleasant. I like my life now I am not dependent on anyone. My needs are minimal. One of my major problems is that once I am in Canada they will delay giving me a date for my cases because they want me to hang around the country. The only reason i got these dates was because I had left.
People I have forgotten to tell you about this, of course it is important! I saw a TShirt in Munich worn by one of the Nazis when I came out of the Library. The name of the town evades me now. The T-Shirt said ‘Most Wanted’ and had a picture of the continent of Africa under the words. I said to myself, I know. I was reminded of this incident because on my way out of the plaza one night another Nazi had on another black T-Shirt with a message. This time it said ‘We are DIOR’. Of course, people are thinking they are god. Since I know I serve the true and living God, we will indeed see who is ‘DIEU’. This is not surprising, after all we are in ‘Beatles’ Country, who remember the Beatles they made the mistake and said ‘We are more Popular than Jesus’. The poor fools signed their death warrants, the Kingdom of God is still expanding and I have to ask you if you remember them. Once they do not put it as ‘Dieu’ they are all right. The Lord thy God is one God, you shall have no other God before Him. Let us remind ourselves of the Ten Commandments I doubt most people remember they exist.
This also reminded me of the first time I took Communion at Westminster Abbey. The Pastor served a square Communion wafer to a lady beside me. Then a round one to me, I was wondering if I was being poisoned as per usual. Then I realized that there were two ladies and they seem to be Lesbians. They were most pious. I take this very seriously because the Church is aiding and abetting the damnation of people’s souls. Homosexuality and Lesbianism in the word of God is clearly a sin. That is why the sinners are having such a field day, these Pastors take money from anyone, no questions asked. Even the high Priest Caiphas in his back sliden state realized that you cannot mix holy and unholy and refused to put Judas’ blood money into the general collections St. Matthew 27 verse 6.That is why they would like me to do things against my will they are used to getting their way, they have all the Pastors wrapped up. If I was not a Christian already I would have serious problems becoming one in this atmosphere because the Church is sending a lot of mixed messages and confusing people. The whiteman’s problem is that he is so subtle that he thinks he can reason God out of His church, Lord help my Holy Ghost! Let us end on this note God Himself will have to destroy the European Union, if this is a foretaste of what is to come. These are people without souls because the third time they are going to have to get it right.
More anon these are the best of times and the worst of times!!
REFLECTIONS
Another fantastic reflection on the omnipotence of the God we serve. This month promises to be even more dramatic in the life of Joshua.
CRITICAL DEFINITIONS
They remain the same
Vanquish - To defeat thoroughly
Strategy - A plan of action designed to achieve a long-term or overall aim.
The art of planning and directing overall military operations and movements in a war or battle.
Spiritual Warfare - This is the best definition I could find: Spiritual warfare is the leveraging of everything that God promises against everything that opposes the purposes of God. Love it!!
SECTION I
Let us pick up where we left off last month, by first listening to a song Joshua Generation by Robert Gay and then do a little revision. My friend in the teaching world was told by the Head of the Business Department of which I was a part ‘your friend is a good teacher ‘ this after the result I got with my students. So like any good teacher would do you ensure that the students have grasped what has gone before, before you move on. We learnt seven lessons and two battle strategies in the previous Blog. They are as follows:
THE FIRST BATTLE - JERICHO - JOSHUA 6
This battle was fought completely in the spiritual realm, let us look at the methodology. How many of you could engineer a battle strategy like this, only God.
- The first thing they did was to walk around the wall for six days once each day quietly with seven priests before the ark of the covenant. Let us look at what is taking place here. The Priests were the representatives of God taking His presence around the wall. Seven is the number of completion so it was a perfect core of priest and the trumpets represent sounding in warning, anticipation,celebration or jubilation one of the ways we invite the presence of God. The weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty through God II Corinthians 10 verse 4. Invite God’s presence in your situation with great expectations.
- On the seventh day they went around the wall seven times and on the seventh time the Priests were to sound the trumpet seven times and the people shouted. Speak to the fact that when things seem hopeless that is the time you should double your effort and not give up. They were then to approach the wall which would yield. The scriptures say if you give up in the day of adversity then your strength is weak Proverbs 24 verse 10.
- Another principle that was established was that they were to take none of the spoils everything belonged to God, they were to be destroyed except for the gold and silver which were to be placed in the sanctuary.
STRATEGY ONE
The overriding strategy you need the presence of God in your every situation. Once God has surrounded you all you need is a shout for every wall to come down.
THE SECOND BATTLE - BATTLE OF AI - JOSHUA 7
- Lesson Number One: In the matters of the Spirit you cannot make decisions based on assumptions. No matter how confident you are in your strategies and methodologies YOU ARE NOT OMNISCIENT! I cannot emphasize this point enough the whole of matters Spiritual is based on this point. IT IS ALWAYS ADVISABLE TO SEEK GOD’S COUNSEL FIRST IN ALL THINGS. People, in my life this has been brought down to the soap and toothpaste I use. They have been poisoned so often that once I get a check in the Spirit I just throw them away immediately. This is a lesson that Joshua learnt the hard way and will run throughout the theme of the Book of Joshua. Suffice it to say they were defeated because sin was in the camp.
- Lesson Number Two: Sin will rob you of your victory every time even when you have the advantage. They had more seasoned fighters than Ai but Ai whipped them good and proper.
- Lesson Number Three: You have to deal decisively with sin. There is Joshua going before God on his face with torn garments. God did not mince words He went straight to the heart of the matter you have sin in the camp go and deal with the matter Joshua 7 verses 10 -11.
- Lesson Number Four: Every man shall give an account. God does not play with sin even now we are under grace. The destruction is not as swift Joshua 7 verse 15 but the Bible says everyone shall give an account of his deed Romans 14 verse 12.
SECOND ATTEMPT TO TAKE AI - JOSHUA 8
- Post Victory Celebration: One does not take out the drinks, tambourines and start a dance as in the days of Moses Joshua called all of Israel and in the presence of the Lord represented by the Ark of the Covenant he renewed the covenant and blessed the Lord.
STRATEGY NUMBER TWO
You can set ambushments for the enemy in the Spiritual realm. The book of Daniel when Michael had to remove the principality so that the answer to Daniel's prayer could manifest Daniel 10 verses 11 - 12.
THE DECEPTION OF GIBEON - JOSHUA 9
After a great victory one tends to become lax and Satan knows this. He does not wait until the euphoria has passed and you are more or less grounded he goes for the gullet in the midst of your celebration. Let us look at this story which establishes the fact that once you have established your principles under God you are not to turn to the right or the left and the fact that you are going to be tested. The parallel for this is the Prophet Elijah I Kings 19 verse 1-3 when he ran from Jezebel in fear after killing eight hundred and fifty of the prophets of Baal.
- Lesson Number Seven: God is a God of his Word and His people have to be that way also. Lesson learnt continuous consultation with God is the key to success.
SECTION II
We now pick up the story of the Children of Israel as told in the Book of Joshua at Chapter 10.
THE KING OF GIBEON- JOSHUA 10
Here it is Gibeon a great nation had taken the opportunity to make a bond with Israel. Then the King of Jerusalem formed a coalition with the other kings of the Amorites. The pact consisted of Adonizedec king of Jerusalem, Hoham king of Hebron, Piram king of Jarmuth, Japhia king of Lachish, and Debir king of Eglon. The kings came against Gibeon who sent to Joshua for help. Joshua went to their rescue. The Lord told Joshua he was not to be afraid because He had delivered them up to him Joshua 10 verses 1 - 5.
- Lesson number Eight: your future is guaranteed once you are on the side of God Joshua 10 verses 6 - 9. By aligning themselves with the people of Israel Gibeon automatically tapped into the covenant He had with Israel.
- Lesson Number Nine: Repeat of Lesson Number Five God will fight your battle for you when you are in good standing. God discomfited and defeated the Amorites. God threw enormous hales from the sky on them. The night was coming while they were fighting Joshua told the sun to stand still over Gabon and the moon to stand still over the valley of Ajilon Joshua 10 verses 10 14. Jesus, if you had faith as a mustard seed St. Matthew 17 verse 20. Jesus curses the fig tree St. Mark 11 verses 12 - 25.
- Lesson Number Ten: As a Believer your feet is in the neck of your enemy and you are more than a Conqueror Joshua 10 verses 24 - 27.
STRATEGY THREE
Before we proceed I would like to mention one of the leadership principles to be found in the book Good to Great by Jim Collins. It is ‘The Flywheel Concept’. It is a physical principle the fact that once you have overcome the initial energy needed to move a wheel then the force that is needed to continue the motion lessens as you continue until increase in motion is inverse to the effort expended.
‘The Flywheel effect is a concept developed in the book Good to Great. No matter how dramatic the end result, good-to-great transformations never happen in one fell swoop. In building a great company or social sector enterprise, there is no single defining action, no grand program, no one killer innovation, no solitary lucky break, no miracle moment. Rather, the process resembles relentlessly pushing a giant, heavy flywheel, turn upon turn, building momentum until a point of breakthrough, and beyond.’
This is the same here with Joshua after this battle because he has gotten everything in order he just moves through conquering the nations like flies. He is as we would say in colloquial parlance on a roll.
- The kingdoms of the south that fell:Let us follow the pattern start with the worshippers - Mighty Man of War by Robert Gay.
Joshua 10 verses 31 - 32 King of Lachish
Joshua 10 verse 33 King of Gezer
Joshua 10 verses 34 - 35 King of Eglon
Joshua 10 verses 36 - 37 King of Hebron
Joshua 10 verses 38 - 39 King of Debir
Joshua 10 verses 40 - 43 Summation of the Southern Victories Kadesh Barnea to Gaza and Goshen to Gibeon.
Just to advise there is a reason for destroying even the children of your enemy. They cannot return to take revenge later. Read the story of King of Solomon I Kings 11 verses 14 - 43.
STRATEGY FOUR
I cannot put it any simpler. Position yourself so that God will fight for you.
CONCLUSION
Mon peuple, when it is all said and done it boils down to one thing, ‘This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success Joshua 1 verse 8.
This was demonstrated graphically in the lives of King David and Daniel. How can we forget Pastor Moses? He said ‘God I am not moving one foot until you can assure me that you are there every step of the way Exodus 33 verse 15.
Remember people there are many types of success out there, ask yourselves is this ‘good success’. Anyone wants to come with their alternate ways let them come ONE WAY KING JESUS!!
To all my faithful readers let me apologize once again for the late publishing of my Blog this month. I ask you to first pray for me and then bear with me as I pass through Europe with the many challenges.
This is me Raphleta, Lillene’s baby girl coming to you from the Apple Store in Westfield, White City, London W12. The bargains over here are phenomenal.
