SEE IT FIRST
Joshua 6:1-5

When God promised to take the children of Israel out of bondage, of over four hundred years, to the Promised Land, He meant what He promised to do. He is God, and whatever He says He will do. In His plan for His children, there is no man, or force, under heaven that can stop, or deny, God’s promise, except when the children of God choose to go in the way that seems right to them. Unfortunately, no man goes in the way that seems right and get to His Promised Land because the way that seems right is a way of death. Proverbs 14:12, “There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is death.” Among the great challenges that stood in the way of the children of Israel, was a closed gate where no one went out, and none could come in. It was a device to make sure that the children of Israel could not pass through. In their journey, there were challenging confrontations, but none could stop the hand of God from seeing them through. Are you experiencing any challenging confrontation that insists on stopping you from where God has spoken for you to go to? The children of Israel had to take over Jericho, in order to continue their journey to the Promised Land. Jericho’s attempt to stop the children of Israel culminated with the shutting of gate as recorded in Joshua 6:1, “Now Jericho was securely shut up because of the children of Israel; none went out none came in.” Is your confronting situation like that of Jericho? If you believe in the God that is the same yesterday and today you can begin to celebrate your breakthrough, because the One that promised you, has the key to every door in heaven or on earth. He alone is the almighty God, “… He who is holy, He who is true, “He who has the key of David, He who opens and no one shuts, and shuts and no one opens” (Revelation 3:7) The word of God is true and He will deliver you as promised. Let your confrontations keep its own key to your open door, God will deliver unto you the master key that cannot be resisted by any force or demon under heaven. God’s key message to Joshua was, “…See! I have given Jericho into your hand, its king and the mighty men of valor.” (Joshua 6:2) Joshua has the need to see victory as being there before making any other move. To be able to see victory in place in the process moving forward in the direction of hindrance is evidence of having an unshakable faith that God is able. “The same God that cannot be pleased without faith” (Hebrews 11:6), will no doubt be pleased with faith and He will move on your behalf like He did for Joshua. Begin to see your breakthrough as being there before you march into your Promised Land.

Prayer for today: Lord let the eye of the spirit be open, that I may have a manifestation of my breakthrough, in Jesus name.
