If God gave us His definition for success, would you pay attention? Everyone in the world is battling for success, yet most of us aren’t prioritizing God’s definition of success. 

Guess what? For the vast majority, success is never easy. Success always comes with internal challenges and external opposition. This is especially true spiritually because there’s an enemy fighting against God’s purposes and promises. That’s why God tells Joshua and Caleb time and time again to be “strong and courageous.” 

Success is a battle on many levels. It is a battle spiritually, mentally, and physically. In this series, we’re going to discover and develop the lion inside of you. 

The tenth message of Courageous is from Joshua 7:1-26. What happens when we don’t heed the Word of God, but especially the warnings of God? Why does God warn us? His warnings aren’t about withholding goodness; they are about protecting us. 

Chapter seven of Joshua is one of those chapters where God could easily be misrepresented or misunderstood. When God’s consequences feel harsh, it’s important to learn why. God is never harsh just for the sake of being harsh. He is good and is always looking out for our good. 

Tune in to this message and learn the importance of heeding God’s warnings. God can use this message to protect you from some of life’s greatest regrets. Lastly, the flip side of consequences are the blessings. God’s heart for us is to receive the blessings and avoid the consequences.

The ninth message of Courage is from Joshua 6:1-7. What do you when the battle finally arrives? In many respects, the Israelites waited over forty years for this battle. This is the moment of faith. 

Faith is so much more than a set of beliefs, rather, faith is confident trust in the one true God. Would the Israelites believe an improbable battle plan? Would they trust and obey God to deliver Jericho into their hands? 

None of us live in this fallen and broken world without battles. God desires for us to live in the fullness of His promises today. 

Every battle has defining moments, what is necessary for us to win and sustain the victory on the seventh day? As you listen to this message, you’ll face key decisions and actions for sustain victory:
Follow His Presence
Go Forward
Take the City
Do not Covet
No Compromise

The eighth message of Courageous is all about the keys to victory. It is important to remember that every victory has a backstory. Everyone knows about the Jericho victory, but most people don’t know the backstory. This message walks us through the circumcision of approximately 600,000 men. If nothing else, that statement alone should make you curious enough to listen. However, it also walks us through the celebration of Passover, the end of the manna, and the arrival of the Captain of the Lord’s Army. 

Victories are almost always internal before they’re external. The biggest battles in life are fought internally first. Once we win the internal battles, we are equipped and empower to fight the external battles. This message will prepare you for life battles. We are to win the small battles to win the big battles.

Lastly, we are the Lord’s soldiers. Therefore, we don’t have to fight our battles alone. This is a new type of war with a new type of warfare. Our approach is radically different when we’re being led by the Captain of the Lord’s Army. This is the ultimate transition from fear to faith.

The seventh message of this message is from chapters 3 and 4 of Joshua. Last week was about Consecration, this week is about Crossing Over. It is important to focus on the future, but it’s also incredibly important to learn from the past. If don’t learn from the past, then we and even our children are doomed to repeat the past.

If we don’t mark the moment by creating spiritual markers then we begin the process of forgetting and failing. Please prioritize listening to this message for yourself, but also for your family and friends. It is essential for those in our circle to know the stories of God’s work in us and through us.

There’s lyrics in a song that says, “My God did not fail, that’s the story I’ll tell.” It is important for to be strategic about remembering God’s work and retelling the stories. Remember Revelation 19:10 says, “For the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.” The more we remember old works, the more we’ll experience new works.

The sixth message of this message is from Joshua 3:1-5. Verse five is one of the greatest conditional promises in all of scripture. It says, “Consecrate yourselves, for tomorrow the Lord will do wonders among you.” What would you do to experience the wonders of God done for you and through you? 

Listen to the gain understanding about consecration, but more importantly, listen to this message to consecrate yourself. At the end of this message, you will be invited into and guided through a prayer of consecration. Regardless of when you listen to this message, your prayers will be heard by God in real time. 

Please do more than listen to this message. Whatever you do, don’t rush through the ending. This is more than a message; this is an opportunity for you to consecrate yourself. You will never regret applying these truths by dedicating uninterrupted time to consecrate yourself. Ask for more of the Holy Spirit and trust the wonders of God to come in fullness.

Down on planet earth, we miss so much of God’s perspective. In the fifth week of Courageous: You’ve Got a Lion Inside of You, we are quickly reminded that regardless of one’s past, no one is disqualified from making kingdom impact. Whether you are the leader, a teammate, or an outcast, Joshua 2 and the story of Rahab provide an incredible backdrop to remind us how our opportunities to exercise courage are not lost on our Heavenly Father. Join Pastor Karin Conlee as she applies the timeless truths that Rahab and the spies’ challenge us to step into so we can experience the joy of being a part of God's bigger story. Be inspired as you consider how taking one step of courage could exponentially change your future and the future of those you love.

The fourth message of this series originates from Joshua 1:7-9. God’s definition of success is worthy of at least two messages; therefore, this focuses on the habits of holiness. When we put first things first, everything else falls into its proper order of importance. 

Tune into this message and you’ll learn the priorities, plan, and pathway to experience God’s prosperity.

The third message of this series originates from Joshua 1:1-9. If you knew God’s definition of success, would you follow it? Absolutely, right? Tune into this message and commit to all your desires and dreams coming true. That’s not a promise of our definition of health, wealth, and prosperity, but it is a promise of God’s definition of success and prosperity.

This message answers three crucial questions:
Should you wait for God to complete the plans before you obey?
Should you wait for God to remove the uncertainties before you obey?
Are you missing God’s promises because you are demanding the plans?

Lastly, prioritize listening to this message to discover the secret behind discerning and discovering the fullness of God’s will.

The second message of this series comes from Numbers 14:1-45. This chapter is jammed packed with incredible truths on so many different levels. In addition to tuning into this message, I highly recommend reading this chapter 5 to 10 times in a discipline of observation, interpretation, and application. That’s an investment of time that will yield rich results. 

Back to the message, learn how Joshua and Caleb had a different spirit and followed the Lord fully. This is one of the greatest compliments in scripture. To follow the Lord fully doesn’t require perfection, but it does require a new understanding of what it looks like to be in an abiding relationship with God. 

Some people might feel defeated by the challenge to follow the Lord fully. Don’t believe that lie. This is an inspiring invitation. It is an invitation to be whole-hearted. No one wants to be half-hearted. When we our hearts are focused, our lives are full. In the best use of this word, you become the exception when you follow the Lord fully.
