Joshua 1:10-15 (NLT)- “Joshua then commanded the officers of Israel, “Go
through the camp and tell the people to get their provisions ready. In three
days, you will cross the Jordan river and take possession of the land the
LORD your God is giving you.” Then Joshua called together the tribes of
Ruben, Gad, and the half-tribe Manasseh. He told them, “Remember what
Moses, the servant of the LORD, commanded you: ‘The LORD your God is
giving you a place of rest. He has given you this land.’ Your wives, children,
and livestock may remain here in the land Moses assigned to you on the east
side of the Jordan River. But your strong warriors, fully armed, must lead the
other tribes across the Jordan to help them conquer their territory. Stay with
them until the LORD gives them rest, as he has given you rest, and until they,
too, possess the land the LORD your God is giving them. Only then may you
return and settle here on the east side of the Jordan River in the land that
Moses, the servant of the LORD, assigned to you.”
1.) Remember The Cost
Just because God has given you a promise doesn’t mean He won’t ask you to fight for it.
Hebrews 10:23 (NLT)- “Let us hold tightly without wavering to the hope we
affirm, for God can be trusted to keep his promise.”
Hebrews 11:1 (NLT)- “Faith is the confidence that what we hope for will
actually happen, it gives us assurance about things we cannot see.”
Just because you’ve reached the promise doesn’t mean that your assignment has reached completion.
2.) Blessing Doesn’t Cancel Responsibility
Galatians 6:2-3 (NLT) – “Share each other’s burdens, and in this way obey
the law of Christ. If you think you are too important to help someone, you
are only fooling yourself. You are not that important.”
Your breakthrough could be meant to help equip others to reach theirs.
3.) It’s Time To Cross
Their fight may be inconvenient for you, but you are imperative to it!
You can help someone else reach the end of their line because Christ already carried you to yours!
Philippians 2:4 (NLT)- “Don’t look out only for your own interests but take
an interest in others too.”
Proverbs 17:17 (NLT)- “A friend is always loyal, and a brother is born to
help in time of need.”
