YOU HAVE THE POWER

It was Jim Rohn that said that you cannot hire a man to do your push ups for you. There are things you can delegate and other things that only you can do.  Joshua 15：14 says, And Caleb drove thence the three sons of Anak Sheshai, and Ahiman, and Talmai the children of Anak. Those were giants that originally dwelt in Hebron. He drove them all out and occupied that city when he was already above 80 years. Why could he do that.

From what we know from Ezekiel 2：2, when the Lord speaks to a man, the Spirit of the Word spoken enters into him to give him the requisite ability to do what was spoken. I had not written a poem in all my life until the morning that the Lord told me He was going to enable me to write. This tells me that as soon as the Lord promised Joshua and Caleb that He was giving them Hebron, it was a done deal. He is the God that says a thing and it is done.

Notice however that it took Caleb taking some steps before the promise became a reality in his life. Nothing much happens when we are passive. The ten leppers cleansed in the book of Luke got their healing as they went. To Joshua, the Lord said, wherever the soles of your feet threads on, I will give to you. He came back to him in Joshua 13 and said Joshua, you are old and there are still much land to possess. That will not be our story in Jesus name.

What are the things that the Lord has called you to do？ What are those ideas you have nursed for a long time？ Begin to take steps towards accomplishing them. We do not have too much time in this side of eternity and we are not called to be at ease in Zion. Remember once again that you cannot hire a man to do your push ups for you.
