Episode 1: The Word Of The Lord Determines Our Victory
The context of the verses being shared is filled with vast truths that connect and align us to God’s will for our lives. We talk about the power of waiting for an assured victory, and how that can only be accomplished through faith. We also make it a point to inform our audience not to entertain relationships that God has instructed us to cut, because sin so easily entangles. Let it be known that sin fascinates before it assassinates. We then veer off to discuss the power of faith and how it produces a blessing for generations to come. Faith is not a one and done deal, rather it is cyclical. And lastly, we end with an impactful declaration that states when you choose God you choose legacy. We point out the fact that Rahab chose God, and as a result she was imbedded into the genealogy of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. The same goes for Ruth and this nameless man who built up the town of Luz. Who are you choosing today? Make the declaration and don’t turn back.
Notes:
Vicki – Verse 2: The Word of the Lord determines our victory and the determination to rule determines our victory. Trust and apply the word of the Lord so that they would believe that what the Lord told them would come to pass. You can’t do anything apart from the Lord. Compare to Numbers 33:55. Listen and move in action to receive our victory. Wait for the assured victory.
Brittany – Verse 15: Your faith produces blessing. Caleb was a warrior and was sent out into the land to spy out and see what Canaan had to offer. The men with Caleb spoke out of fear whereas Caleb and Joshua spoke the promise or out of faith. Compare to Numbers 14:24 – Because of Caleb’s faith his decedents will possess the land and now in Judges you see this promise coming to fruition. God rewards you for believing in him. Caleb’s daughter was able to partake in the blessing because of her Father’s faith.
Melissa – Verse 19: How you view success determines your victory. Success if not coupled with humility can sabotage the achievement. Our lack of faith leads to delay. Don’t entertain relationships that you know aren’t right. Don’t entertain what God has told you to cut. Sin fascinates before it assassinates. Have faith for what God is telling you to do. Success can be defined as peace of mind.
Jeanny – Verse 26: When you choose God you choose legacy (i.e. Rahab, Ruth and now this man). Who are you choosing today? No turning back!
