TIME TO ENTER THE PROMISED LAND By Nina Keegan

IT IS TIME TO ENTER THE PROMISED LAND...
Go get what’s yours… Go get what God has promised you and don’t let anything stop you!
It had been 40 years of roaming the wilderness… What was to be an 11 day trip was now 40 years in the making… Generations of Israelites came and went… But the whole time God met their needs with provision… Food fell from the sky… They witnessed  the absolute brilliance of a sea part as they walked on its dry ocean floor while watching the enemies chasing them being swallowed by walls of water behind them.

After all of these miracles… When they got to the walls of promised land.. they deemed the Giants inside to be too big for our God to handle.....All except Joshua and Caleb.... they saw how big their God was!
Numbers 13:30-33 The Message (MSG)
30 Caleb interrupted, called for silence before Moses and said, “Let’s go up and take the land—now. We can do it.”

31-33 But the others said, “We can’t attack those people; they’re way stronger than we are.” They spread scary rumors among the People of Israel. They said, “We scouted out the land from one end to the other—it’s a land that swallows people whole. Everybody we saw was huge. Why, we even saw the Nephilim giants (the Anak giants come from the Nephilim). Alongside them we felt like grasshoppers. And they looked down on us as if we were grasshoppers.”

The Israelites were told for years and years of a great inheritance that God had promised to them...
Can you imagine finally walking up to the border of this great and mighty promised land and looking over at it? Can you imagine  finally laying eyes on the great provision, the beautiful homes, gorgeous bountiful trees, beautiful flowing streams, amazing ,wonderful provision of God?

Of all the spies sent out to survey the land , it was  only Joshua and Caleb who declared, “let’s go up and take it!”

But just when you’re about to open the door to your victory, just when you’re about to enter into your breakthrough, just when you’re about to step a foot across the threshold into your promised land… The voices will most assuredly come..! The army of opposition brought forth by the enemy will try to thwart God’s plans in your life...! 

“YOU CAN’T  DO THAT!”...The negative on-slot of the enemies darts show up declaring that you’re too small, two weak, that the Giants on the other side are way too big… That you better turn back… That your situation is undoubtedly impossible!

MY FRIENDS..... GOD ALREADY KNEW ABOUT THE GIANTS IN THE LAND...

 There is nothing that he doesn’t already know about...Do you think God would do all of the things he did to lead them to this land of inheritance just to let the whole plan fail in defeat because God would be surprised and shocked that there were giants in the land..? 

GOD KNOWS WHAT HE ‘S DOING! 

He wants to see your faith... he wants you to declare victory with your mouth, he wants you to see the victory through the eyes of God!  He wants you to be strong and courageous and know that the God who promised this land to you is faithful. He will give us the land and release the inheritance to us when we stand strong knowing that when God is for us who can dare be against us and when he has told us something is ours…  THEN IT IS OURS.... TAKE IT!!  We must go in full armor and take what God has said we could have!!

GOD IS ON YOUR SIDE.. DON’T BE AFRAID OF THEM..  Numbers 14:12

Do you think after all the years of God’s  promises that they would enter into the promised land that God was now going to say, “oh .. I am so sorry I didn’t know about those big Giants … I guess you better give up and turn back...?”  God does not make mistakes and his plans do not fail … But it is up to us how many years we want to spend in the wilderness for whatever reasons... deeming our Giants to be bigger than our God. 

God left the giants in the land of inheritance to assure that only the people of strong faith in him would possess it… God’s promises are awaiting you.. his provision is right in front of you.. it’s ours for the taking… It’s time for breakthrough, it’s time to bind any spirit of fear and disqualification... it’s time to face the Giants and go get our inheritance, it’s time to go get back everything the enemy has stolen from us...it’s time to reach our promised land!!!

When we are about to enter in ...yes, there will be giants that will try to rise up in attempt to keep us from the great and mighty promises of God for our lives. Fear will come in like a thief in the night and there will be those convincing voices telling us to turn around… But this is the time we stand up with the word of God and declare that God‘s promises for our lives will be fulfilled and we will not back down!!!

 We are to be strong and very courageous God is faithful and he watches over his word to perform it! 

We are so much greater with who is in us,( God) then who is in the world…(the enemy)... If God is for us who can dare be against us? What giant in the land can come up against our amazing ,powerful, wonderful loving God..?

Let’s go up and take the land now! 

Do it  afraid!!!

GOD  always goes before us and makes the crooked places straight...  The battle is a spiritual one… We are not dealing with man but principalities and wickedness and rulers in high places… But we have dominion over them because of Jesus… We are Over-comers through the blood of the lamb and the word of our testimony… And there’s no demon in hell or giant in the land that can overcome the authority we have in Jesus!!!  JESUS!!!! 

It’s already yours, the promises of God still stand… The words of provision ,blessing, divine health, are all awaiting us in the promised land… Declare victory declare that the blood of Jesus stands and because of that we have the power to overcome and annihilate any giant that tries to stand in our way!!!

It’s always amazing to me that these Israelites had seen miracle after miracle... they were fed manna from the sky.. they crossed a sea on dry land and yet... 
they still had a hard time trusting the hand of God to protect them, guide them ,and lead them into their full inheritance....

are you trusting God for all that he has for you..? Are you looking at JESUS... or at your giant..? 

BELIEVE!!

Deuteronomy 31:8

"The LORD is the one who goes ahead of you; He will be with you He will not fail you or forsake you. Do not fear or be dismayed." 

Isaiah 45:2

"I will go before you and make the rough places smooth; I will shatter the doors of bronze and cut through their iron bars.

Numbers 14:14
and they will tell it to the inhabitants of this land. They have heard that You, O LORD, are in the midst of this people, for You, O LORD, are seen eye to eye, while Your cloud stands over them; and You go before them in a pillar of cloud by day and in a pillar of fire by night.

Exodus 14:19
The angel of God, who had been going before the camp of Israel, moved and went behind them; and the pillar of cloud moved from before them and stood behind them.

BELIEVE IN MIRACLES ... by Nina Keegan

MORE SIGNS AND WONDERS...
Our lives should be naturally supernatural...Our unending faith must make room for the extravagance of God…

Acts 1:8 
 “But you will receive POWER when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”

 And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man’s wisdom, but in DEMONSTRATION of the Spirit and of POWER : That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God. 
1Cor 2 :1-5

The Bible says we are to be like Jesus in the world, we are to be his image, we are to walk in power and do greater things than even he did because he went to be with his father... we have full access… Full access to his complete love, SUPERNATURAL POWER, undivided attention, and divine intercession, as we live and move and have our being in him. 

The Holy Spirit... living and moving in us, making us live and move in Him...

John 15:5  Apart from him we can do nothing... but with him we have the fullness of all power to fully display demonstrations of his signs and wonders and miracles.

We are always praying for revival, but revival starts in each of us, revival is an atmosphere for Christ’s power to be evident and to be manifested. We can walk in the evidence of God‘s glory… We were never meant to be powerless because if we are to do greater things than even Jesus did and if we have the power of the Holy Spirit living in us, then why are we not walking this out..?  Why are we not seeing evidence of the miraculous every day?… Our lives should be naturally supernatural!

Through signs and wonders hell is plundered and heaven is populated. Without revival, without signs and wonders, without evidence, of God’s goodness and glory and power to transform us all… Then hell is populated.

If you are saved, if you are a born-again child of God… Then there has been signs and wonders in your life… Behold, behold, all things are made new!
Your life should be radiating evidence of God’s grace, of God’s transforming power, and of God’s ability to take something lost and broken and restore it in complete Godly transformation to something new.. there is power to wash us clean and ready us as empty vessels available to be used for the glory of God….

 We want each of our lives to be a reflection of the power of God working in us.
The primary focus of our transformation of which we are all miracles in the making… Is to reveal the nature of God in us. If there is not an evidence of a new creation in the soles of Christians, then why would anyone want to be one? 
The lack of miracles, signs, and wonders, causes the world to suffer ..The world is crying out for something it doesn’t even know it needs...

The endless longing, and search for something more in each of us is what God uses to draw us to himself… We are souls seeking a Heavenly Father, we are souls searching for home… We all need a personal encounter with God.. our souls hunger and thirst for it...and that encounter must include great power.…

God‘s power is transforming, we are called to be witnesses for God! 
The idea of God without power is nothing less than a thief stealing the precious revelation that is just within the grasp of every man and woman and child.

When we come in the light of Jesus, we can expose sin, have words of knowledge that bring people to make a clear decision to call on Jesus. If we are not walking in power, then we are missing out on using the weapons that are available to us in the full arsenal of Jesus! 

It was the power of God that caused us all to call on Jesus ..He called us all to seek transformation  and desire a new life led by the power and grace of God… This new power in our lives has exposed sin in our lives... it has brought us to a place of divine seeking and a longing to know God as our personal savior more and more… And as we seek him, we will continually find him.. and he will continually reveal to us great and mighty mysteries of his will.
The revelations we receive help us to walk in his complete power so we can live a life filled with the signs and wonders of Jesus. We can be his disciples here on earth and walk in the glory of God in all we do.

We are God’s ambassadors ..we are to release his glory into great need, physical sickness, poverty, oppression, and fear...  these things represent the impact of darkness… But darkness hates light and we can infiltrate the darkness with the light of Jesus in us. This power displaces darkness and lets Gods light and glory fall.

Where there are miracles, there’s also the glory of God which is the manifested, presence and power of JESUS!!!

Let’s walk it out on purpose, let’s be the evidence, let’s be salt and light in this world, let’s do all the things Jesus died for us to do ...! 

How strong is your faith..?

We will not back down, we will fulfill the glory of God in it’s fullness, for the completeness of God’s good works, and for a continuous stream of evidence of God‘s purpose for our lives... and we will do it today!!

BELIEVE!! 

Acts 2:22
"Men of Israel, listen to these words: Jesus the Nazarene, a man attested to you by God with miracles and wonders and signs which God performed through Him in your midst, just as you yourselves know-- 

Mark 16:20
And they went out and preached everywhere, while the Lord worked with them, and confirmed the word by the signs that followed.] [And they promptly reported all these instructions to Peter and his companions. And after that, Jesus Himself sent out through them from east to west the sacred and imperishable proclamation of eternal salvation.]

Acts 14:3

Therefore they spent a long time there speaking boldly with reliance upon the Lord, who was testifying to the word of His grace, granting that signs and wonders be done by their hands. 

Hebrews 2:4

God also testifying with them, both by signs and wonders and by various miracles and by gifts of the Holy Spirit according to His own will. 

Acts 2:43

Everyone kept feeling a sense of awe; and many wonders and signs were taking place through the apostles.

HAPPINESS VERSES JOY by Nina Keegan

HAPPINESS VERSES JOY.. WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE?

The word happiness brings about visions of unwrapping gifts on Christmas morning, maybe strolling through a beautiful park with someone that you love, maybe it’s being surprised by all of your friends on your birthday when you never saw it coming, maybe it’s uncontrollable laughter while watching a funny movie or vacationing in a beautiful exotic location. Perhaps ,it’s finally buying the thing you have wanted for a long time… the thing you thought would make you happy... Everyone wants to be happy; we make the search of it a national past time it would seem… Everyone’s pursuing happiness, searching endlessly for happiness,… We make it a lifelong mission to chase this elusive ideal. We spend money we don’t have, we collect things we don’t need, and we search for new and exciting ways to fill the void just to bring us temporary happiness.

 This cycle will never end… It will be a constant circle of disappointment… if happiness depends on our circumstances, what happens when our toys and gadgets breakdown, when our loved ones die, when our health deteriorates, 

when the money is gone, and the party is over? Happiness often can leave as fast as it got there… and despair can set in just as fast.

In contrast to happiness stands pure JOY!

Running so much deeper and stronger, Joy is the peaceful calm, quiet, confident, assurance of God’s unending love and his powerful work in our lives...It’s us matter-of-factly knowing that he will always be there for us no matter what!

 Happiness depends on happenings, but joy unequivocally, wholly, and fully

depends on Christ! KNOWING CHRIST AS OUR LORD AND SAVIOR!

ALWAYS BE FULL OF JOY IN THE LORD; I SAY IT AGAIN-

REJOICE! Phil 4:4 (Paul speaking)

Paul’s letter to the Philippians was none other than a joy letter. Paul wrote to the Philippians with a personal expression of his gratitude ,love and affection for them; they had brought him great encouragement.. Paul likes to emphasize the real joy of a Christian life and how we can ALL HAVE PURE JOY! ..The concept of rejoicing or joy appear 16 times in the four chapters of Philippians and the pages radiate the positive message.. JOY .. no matter what... JOY!

Paul was a dedicated servant of Christ, probably the most powerful and amazing evangelist that ever lived. He faced excruciating poverty, abundant wealth, and everything in between; but he wrote this joyful letter even while being in prison ...that’s where he wrote Philippians which is full of JOY…

Amazing to me that a letter flowing with joy, rejoicing, gratitude and love flows from a pen of a man in prison.. We see his heart, we see that no matter what you can have joy…

 Whatever the circumstances Paul had learned to be content

4:11-12

Finding real joy comes from focusing all of our energy on knowing Christ, really knowing him as your personal Lord and Savior… Having a close, personal relationship with him and understanding, and obeying his word for your life… Paul’s desire to know Christ and to become closer to him, was above all else as he expressed his words in this wonderful passage:

“Yes, everything else is worthless when compared with the infinite value of knowing Christ Jesus as my Lord. For his sake I have discarded everything else, counting it all as garbage, so that I could gain Christ and become one with him… I want to know Christ and experience the mighty power that raised him from the dead. I want to suffer with him, share in his death.”

You can just hear Paul’s passion for Jesus in the scriptures... may we all aspire to know Jesus more and more like this man did… We must rejoice like Paul and rededicate ourselves to finding lasting joy that only comes from Jesus…

The search is over to fill the void with things, the next latest and greatest will not do what only the love of Jesus can do… Let every void you’ve been trying to fill your whole life through the endless search of pursuing happiness stop right now as you look to JESUS… Jesus is the author and the finisher of your faith ...He is the only one who can change everything… He is the one who behold...makes all things new… You will become what you behold…!! WHAT ARE YOU BEHOLDING?

The secret to Paul’s Joy is grounded in his relationship with Christ and it is available to each and every one of us! We all desperately want to be happy but we’ve tossed and turned over daily successes, failures, inconveniences, delays, setbacks and pitfalls.

 Christians are to be joyful in every circumstance even when things are not going as planned, because the joy of the Lord is our strength... it’s what we need to pull through… Reliance on Christ keeps our joy steadfast, it strengthens our faith as a result… It redefines love in our hearts as God’s perfect love casts out all fear and worry… Joy is the undercurrent, the byproduct of God’s perfect love flowing in us.. HE NEVER LEAVES US.. no matter what is going on... No matter what emotion is happening on the service there can be an underlining joy of knowing that Jesus will NOT leave you.. you are not alone in your trial… He is right there no matter what, so we can rejoice at all times… Again I say rejoice...

Until now you have not asked for anything in my name. Ask and you will receive, and your JOY will be complete.

John 16:24 

We can become unhappy but we can’t become un-joyed!

IT CAN BE MADE COMPLETE! 

  If you have not have not made Jesus your Lord and Savior call on his name today and receive the joy of the Lord that is the strength in you that will change everything… Let your ENDLESS pursuit of happiness END right now and begin at the same time with one word… JESUS... Call on the name of JESUS!

God bless you all! 

  You make known to me the path of life;

you will fill me with joy in your presence,

with eternal pleasures at your right hand.

Psalm 16:11 

 Though you have not seen him, you love him; and even though you do not see him now, you believe in him and are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy, for you are receiving the end result of your faith, the salvation of your souls.

1 Peter 1:8-9 | NIV

 The Lord has done it this very day;

let us rejoice today and be glad.

Psalm 118:24 

 Though the fig tree does not bud

and there are no grapes on the vines,

though the olive crop fails

and the fields produce no food,

though there are no sheep in the pen

and no cattle in the stalls,

yet I will rejoice in the Lord,

I will be joyful in God my Savior.

Habakkuk 3:17-18
