Abraham was promised that what he could see would be his and his children's territory forever. God then shares with Moses and Joshua on separate occasions, that wherever they place the soles of their feet would be theirs. These promises were given to the children of Israel to express how the Lord would expand His Kingdom upon the earth. In the new covenant, we are also a part of an advancing Kingdom. The Lord is calling us into partnership with Him in our faith, through our prayers, and by means of taking "new territory" in the every day moments of our lives. It's by opening our eyes that we can see rightly. In seeing rightly, we can then partner with what the Lord is already doing through our lives, in our families, and within our community. A Kingdom awakening makes room for Kingdom advancement.
