DEVO. 09.18.26

“On the day the LORD gave the Israelites victory over the Amorites, Joshua prayed to the LORD in front of all the people of Israel. He said, “Let the sun stand still over Gibeon, and the moon over the valley of Aijalon.” ‭‭Joshua‬ ‭10‬:‭12‬ ‭NLT‬‬

- Joshua and his army was fight a huge battle.

- But scripture says that he prayed before the battle and he prayed in front of all the people of Israel.

- This was the secret to his success and if we can learn from his example it will be the secret to our success!

- It was a public prayer and it was a bold & somewhat impossible prayer!

- He said, “Let the sun stand still over Gibeon, and the moon over the valley of Aijalon.”

- Who prays like that?

- Only someone who has seen God do the impossible.

- The more that you pray and you see God do amazing things, the more your prayer life will grow!

- Joshua prayed this way because His God who parted the Red Sea could also stop the sun in the sky!

- His God who brought water from a rock could also stop the sun and moon!

- And verse 13 says, “So the sun stood still and the moon stayed in place until the nation of Israel had defeated its enemies!”

- Joshua dared to pray it so God did it!

- What kind of situations stand before you today that you have forgotten to pray for.

- What things have you already decided are immovable and impossible?

- What stronghold has held a tight grip on you?

- In Matthew 19:26 Jesus says, “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”

- Man says impossible and God says “Possible!”‭

- Man says, there are giants in the land, and God says, “Be strong and courageous, for you are the one who will lead these people to possess all the land…” (Joshua 1:6)

- What fear have you allowed to dominated your mind instead of letting the Spirit of God dominated your heart?

- Today is a day to Pray!

- Pray before your spiritual battle, during your battle and after your battle!

- Don’t let the word impossible take up space in your mind any longer!

- If God can cause the sun to stand still for Joshua, He can move the mountain of unbelief in front of you as well!

- Pray big, bold, audacious prayers today!

- Have a great weekend!
