Simple Obedience Leads to God's Supernatural Results

a shout. So sometimes we shout because of what God has done, and we're giving him praise for that. Other times, we are shouting. And like the trumpet would call people to war, we are shouting, calling, and signaling to the armies of heaven to start being activated in the situation that we find ourselves in. And yet another reason that we shout is we give God praise for the victory that's still to come. We haven't seen it yet, but it's a shout of faith. [00:06:20] (26 seconds)  #ShoutOfFaith

Joshua and the people of God, they they are us. They are believers. They are Christ followers who are going into to take this city. And Jericho represents the enemy who doesn't want you to walk into the promises of God. It represents an impossible situation. It represents an impasse and something standing in your way. So this story for us, it's not so much about actual land. Although, if God has promised you some actual land, then that does represent that for you. But it represents for us taking the promises of God that he has for us in our lives, and it represents the enemy who really exists and who really wants to keep you from walking into the promises that God has for you.

So we see this amazing supernatural story. The walls fall down. The people shout. They didn't even fight. And the walls come crumbling down. And you you might be thinking yourself, well, yeah, well, was Joshua. That was this man of God. That was, you know, back in those days. And okay.

Did you know that depending on what theologian you read and how you calculate it, there's between three and eight thousand promises in the word of God for all of us? What does that mean? That means there's more promises than you will ever experience in your entire life. And yet what do we do sometimes as believers? We go, yeah. But, God, what are you calling me to do? Lord, I'm just hey. How how are doing? Oh, I'm just, know, I'm praying. I'm just seeking God's will. Like, well, he he wrote you his will.
