Forward: 21 Days of Fasting and Prayer預覽

PURSUING THE VICTORY In Joshua 10, Joshua held on to God’s promise of victory over Israel’s enemies and was not content until Israel achieved total victory. His conviction resulted in him asking God to cause the sun to stand still. In that significant moment of history, God did cause the sun to stop in mid-day, until the people of Israel completely defeated their enemies! The pursuit of victory begins with a conviction in our hearts . In the pursuit of victory, there is no place for doubt. In the heat of the battle, it was Joshua's bold proclamation that touched God’s heart. The key to winning the battles in our lives begins first with the conviction that God will accomplish all that He says He will. The conviction in our hearts determines our response. When we know that God is on our side, we have the boldness to make faith-filled requests, knowing with full confidence that God will work on our behalf. We begin to take spiritual authority in the midst of our situation, confident in our identity as sons and daughters of God. Press on and contend for all of the promises that God has given to you, until you see them come to pass! What are you believing God for at the beginning of this new year? Share that with someone who can pray and believe with you. Keep praying, keep declaring and keep living in faith as you wait for God to bring you your victory! Reflect: * What are some bold, faith-filled declarations that you can make over your life? Declare them over your life today! * Is there an area of your life that you have not experienced victory in? Commit your doubts to God, ask the Holy Spirit for a fresh conviction as you continue pursuing the promise of victory. Prayer: Dear God, I know that You have good things planned for me and You are faithful to Your word. Help me to hold on to Your promises despite my circumstances and to persevere in faith until I see the victory. In Jesus’ name I pray, Amen.
