               Arise As Bold Warriors

I would have you as My servants Joshua and Caleb, who firstly had seen 
My hand in operation throughout their travailing and journey from Egypt. 
They knew that I was capable of doing what I said I would do, and they
were unnerved when they beheld the giants of the land before them. They 
knew that they could not do the job of eradicating their enemies by
themselves, so they leaned upon Me for their strength. They refused to 
speak in unbelief when the rest of their brothers spread fear among the 
camp. They waited on Me and knew that I had given them the land for 
their inheritance.

As with My servants of old, you My people are on the threshold of your 
promised land. You have lingered in the wilderness long enough. Some 
of the "older generation" doctrine that caused you to turn back is 
disappearing as My truth is etched on your hearts. The land I have 
given before you is your inheritance. Yet I have allowed the giants in 
your way as a set up to show Myself strong in you. Do not look to the 
natural but to the supernatural.

As these giants advance and try to stop you from moving forward, declare 
My praises and My promises that will ensure the downfall of all that would 
oppose and hinder My work in you. Do you think that singular stone killed 
Goliath as it proceeded from the slingshot? Was it not My power that went
with it as David released the stone? Likewise today, I equip My army with 
such power. Your prayers and praise may not seem all that much significant 
to you. Yet when the focus is on Me, I would say unto you as I said to 
Jehoshaphat, "The battle is mine and I will fight it." Therefore fear not. 
Arise as bold warriors with the armor of the Lord on you. You are 
victorious because I say you are victorious for truly what I have spoken 
shall not return void.
