Walking in Faith

Walking in Faith信 心 的 路 程 - by Ps Jeremy 21/01/07
Introduction - Joshua 1
Why did God stating the obvious? Don’t they Know Moses was death?
What is your next step?

Bible Text Today: Joshua 3

1. Faith is needed every step of the way.
Joshua Chapter 1 - is about the FAITH needed to assume the mantle of leadership.
God had to assure Joshua no less that 3 times See v 6, 7, 9, "to be strong and courageous"
Then his followers had to remind him again.(v18)

2. Keys to Seeing God in action
Thirst: (Psalm 42:1-2)
Toil: (2 Tim. 2:15)
Time: perseverance and persistence
Teachableness: we will get the most when we come to the Scripture with a teachable spirit asking God to teach us His truth, for it is His truth and only His truth that sanctifies and sets us free (John 17:17; 8:32) .

3. Faith followed by Action that Yields result -
Look at The "You" in these verses –
V3,4 When you see, you must move out…
v4 It’s a new way, you’ve never been before! !
v5 Consecrate and keep your distance – reverence
V10 This how you will know that the living God is among you…(1)

4. God is magnified and glorified when Faith is shown.
1.Why choose a time when the river is flooded?
2. Nothing happens until the priest dipped their toes into the water…….

5 . Conclusion : How shall we Walk?
The church that grows, the church that glorifies Him is a church that hunger for the reality of God to be manifested here!
Enough of talk, enough of wishing. Enough of meaningless business to fill the void in our hearts.
Let us ask God for a tangible manifestation of His Power & Glory!
Jeremiah 32:27 "Behold, I am the Lord, the God of all flesh; is there anything too hard for Me? "
