Foundational Podcast

There is a basic presupposition of the Old and New Testaments that there are two opposing kingdoms on planet earth. It is an assumed fact that there is a very real being, a fallen angel named Lucifer, that was thrown out of heaven and 1/3 of angels with him because he rebelled against God because he wanted to be God. There is a second kingdom: The kingdom of God. There is an eternal Being, from everlasting to everlasting. He has no beginning or end of days, no mother or father. He has manifested himself in three Persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Show Notes For This Foundational Podcast: Psalm 8:4-8 What is man that You are mindful of him, And the son of man that You visit him? For You have made him a little lower than the angels, And You have crowned him with glory and honor. You have made him to have dominion over the works of Your hands; You have put all things under his feet, All sheep and oxen— Even the beasts of the field, The birds of the air, And the fish of the sea That pass through the paths of the seas.

• God's original design was that we be a kingdom of priests
• Mankind would be divine royalty
  • God designed planet earth to be the location of his kingdom and dominion
  • Sin destroys that
    • It causes the human race to live beneath what God created it to be
    • So God made a decision
  • Jesus became the last Adam
    • The first Adam committed high treason
    • Jesus reversed everything the first Adam did

Hebrews 2:6-10 But one testified in a certain place, saying: “What is man that You are mindful of him, Or the son of man that You take care of him? You have made him a little lower than the angels; You have crowned him with glory and honor, And set him over the works of Your hands. You have put all things in subjection under his feet.” For in that He put all in subjection under him, He left nothing that is not put under him. But now we do not yet see all things put under him. But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels, for the suffering of death crowned with glory and honor, that He, by the grace of God, might taste death for everyone. For it was fitting for Him, for whom are all things and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons to glory,

• We sit with God on an eternal throne
  • It will never be defeated
  • We have to learn how to behave like royalty
  • Mark 8:13-21
    • Jesus was deeply concerned that his disciples did not understand the principles of the kingdom
    • You can be born again and still live under the principles of this world
• We have to live right side up with God, and upside down to the world, to make the kingdom of God work
  • Do you live everyday with the assurance of who you are
  • Do you know how to walk and talk as royalty of the Kingdom of God

This is a turning point in history and men have to lead the way. We need men that know how to meet God. Sir, do you know how to meet God?

I imagine Joshua didn't know how to meet God, so he hung out with someone who knew how to meet God.

"So the LORD spoke to Moses face to face, as a man speaks to his friend. And he would return to the camp, but his servant Joshua the son of Nun, a young man, did not depart from the tabernacle." Exodus 33:11

A biblical account of Joshua and Caleb

• They were the only two out of 4.5 million people to enter the Promised Land
• These two men are a model for what America needs today

The church needs men to rise up in spiritual leadership

• Not "Aarons" who preach what the congregation wants to hear
• Not pastors who will please itching ears

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vud1hFcIFq0]

We need to teach and train the next generation to turn their back on the world and run to Jesus and let Him set their heart on fire.

• Men, what you need; your family, marriage, work-place needs more than anything else is to be a man that knows how to get to the face of God.
  • Reading a 2-minute devotional will not get you there
  • Plan your day around your time with God
  • Start your day in the presence of God
• Young men will not get to God if they don't have older men to model it for them.
  • We need to model for them how to want God
  • We need to model for them how to seek God

Moses is an example of someone who stood in faith and confidence that God is exactly who He says He is.

He wasn't always perfect at it:

• he had faith crises at times
• he struggled to believe that God could use him
• he even disobeyed God.

But when you look at his life, he consistently and faithfully, followed Almighty God; and even at his points of failure, he believe God is who He says He is and he followed Him.

God took an ordinary guy and used him in an ordinary way.

Show Notes For This Foundational Podcast:

God can use you in the same way!

I hear over and over that this is a Joshua Generation, but the only way it can be a Joshua Generation is if:

• There are thousands of Moses' who will rise up
• They need to be mentors
• They need know how to get face-to-face with God
• They know how to live in the glory of God
• They fast and pray and
• They go to mountain of God
• They live it out
• They mentor the next generation

Let's believe that God can use this Joshua generation - ordinary young people - to do extraordinary things!
