INSPIRATIONAL NEWSLETTER

THURSDAY

JULY 9, 2026

We pray that this newsletter and its contents that we share will help you on your daily journey with Christ, causing you to grow in the ways of the Lord.

The giftings of the fivefold ministry (Apostle, Prophet, Evangelist, Pastor, Teacher) should have one purpose, and that is the teaching and equipping of the saints until we come into unity.

This is why we teach so that you can grow stronger in your faith until unity comes in the body of Christ. Take what you have learned and share it with others so that we can further the kingdom for Jesus Christ.

FAITHFULNESS BRINGS PROMOTION

When Moses told twelve leaders to check on Canaan land, only two came back with a good report. One of those was Joshua. Joshua was a person of faith.

He was Israel’s military leader in the battle against Amalek. While he fought the battle, Moses stood on a hill and as long as his hands were in the air Joshua would win the battle. He knew authority and was eager to serve Moses. When Moses was tired and his arms came down, the Israeli’s were defeated. Aaron and Hur kept Moses’ arms in the air so Joshu could win the battle. He then defeated Amalek.

Joshua was the servant of Moses for forty years before he was promoted. How many of us would be content to wait that long? During those forty years he saw how God used Moses. He was on the mountain when Moses received the ten commandments. He was Moses’ faithful servant.

Joshua was filled with the spirit of wisdom. In Deuteronomy 34:9 it says, “And Joshua the son of Nun was full of the spirit of wisdom; for Moses had laid his hands upon him: and the children hearkened unto him, and did as the LORD commanded Moses.”

In Deuteronomy 27 we see that this was not a random impartation. In verses 15-23 God instructs Moses about Joshua. In verse 20 it says, “And thou shalt put some of thine honor upon him, that all the congregation of the children of Israel may be obedient.”

The transference of this anointing or honor enabled Joshua to be the next leader. He led the Hebrews into the promised land. He had been a faithful servant to Moses for all those years, which eventually brought promotion.

Has God shown you what his plan is for your life? It most likely will not happen instantly. Be a servant to someone in ministry. Learn all you can from that person, and then, when you have passed the test of being faithful, God will bring promotion to you like he did for Joshua. Be patient as you wait for it to unfold. It may not take forty years, but it will take time to prepare you for what God has for you.

PROPHETIC WORDS AND EXHORTATIONS

PROPHETIC EXHORTATION

Don't be surprised when God shuts a door that has been open for a long time. He is moving you up! Let go of that open door as it closes and be ready to move forward into your destiny. Change is a good thing when God is in it.

Thursday Thought For Today

I read a sentence recently that has impacted me. It is this: Seek after finding the purpose of your life and then go do it. God has a purpose and a plan for each of us. I cannot emphasize enough the importance of seeking and following after the plan and purpose of God for your life. It is not a time to fear but a time to stand and go knowing the direction God is leading you.

We often forget to encourage each other as we are seeking God’s plan for our life. But God knows the hearts of His kids and He truly wants us to be strong and able to stand against the wiles of the enemy. We just have to remember the authority that He has already given to us.

”But rise and stand on your feet; for I have appeared to you for this purpose, to make you a minister and a witness both of the things which you have seen and of the things which I will yet reveal to you.“

‭‭Acts‬ ‭26‬:‭16‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

“Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.”

‭‭Joshua‬ ‭1‬:‭9‬ ‭NIV‬‬

PROPHETIC EXHORTATION

_____________

Now we all know that GOOD people DO make bad MISTAKES; And at times those same GOOD people WILL in fact for sure make BAD CHOICES. YES they’ve been known to MESS UP and in doing so they WILL let other GOOD people they love and care for…DOWN!! However, that my friend is called being HUMAN!! Oh, but in NO WAY will it ever make them BAD PEOPLE. You see, we ALL make MISTAKES every once in a while on life’s highway; And yes, it’s been made known that some of those MISTAKES just happen to be EXPOSED... While other people and their MISTAKES are totally HIDDEN!! Oh but...HIDDEN or EXPOSED; Each and every one of us must LIVE, LOVE, LEARN, FORGIVE, FORGET and GROW from it ALL!! Just remember that our loving and faithful Father God STILL allows U-TURNS…For YOU, for ME and for us ALL!! So come on now and let’s give GOD some good praise for that fact!!

You can't enter in to a battle, thinking it's a "loosing battle" but instead, knowing that you have entered a "fixed fight", because you know that there is Victory in Jesus.
