Single Sanctuary God is With You!
Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of good courage: be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the Lord thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest. (Joshua 1:9). When the Spirit of the Lord dropped this scripture in my spirit and I began to read it, it was as if HE was spiritually shaking HIS finger at me as if HE were scolding me. Prior to this I sat devastated at the loss of family to this virus. The world out of control with killings of maybe not so innocent people but, yet their crimes did not warrant death, yet they were killed. And I began to fear, worry, get anxious about everything and wonder why am I even trying to wait on him or HIM. HIM (Jesus) do not seem to be coming to my NOW rescue, and my time seems to be running out! Maybe I need to open my contact list and go back to one of my Ex’s or should I just hang in there with a relationship I KNOW is not working? Maybe this is the best it is going to get for me. As I keep marking the days that we are in I at times feel as though I am fading into a black hole of non-existence fearing that this is IT! SINGLENESS foreverrrr… Lord Help ME! When I sought the Lord for direction, He revealed to me the instructions He gave to Joshua to enter the Promised Land (Josh. 1:1–9). Joshua himself faced bouts of fear as we all do. After the death of Moses, the Lord gave Joshua the assignment of leading His people into an unknown land that was said to be inhabited by giants. As if that weren’t scary enough, they would have to cross the Jordan River during flood season. This would mean they would have to enter the water that was over their heads. With all the things that Joshua was facing I can pretty much guess that he was feeling a lot of what I was feeling. Just because we know Jesus does not mean we will not have bouts of fear it’s just that we know our way out of the fear. PRAYER! The main thing that caught my attention about this scripture was: The Lord GAVE Joshua something at that moment. Joshua trusted the Lord. In trusting HIM, He handed Joshua back what he had let go of, what he had lost. God encouraged Joshua “be strong and courageous.” God never said, “feel strong and courageous.” He told him to “be.” And there is a big difference between those two words. Feeling is an emotion that will come and go. But the word “be,” is something you take possession of, means to “occupy.” God told Joshua hey look dude you got to make the
