It Was By Faith

I was reading the Bible just to be edified, trying to keep my spiritual side satisfied. When I came to the story of  Abraham almost sacrificing his son, Didn't he know Sarah was too old to have another one. So I said to the almighty, omnipotent God above, that Abraham wasn't too bright good thing he had your love. Then I read about Moses leading those people into the Red Sea. Did he think it was a wading pool that only came to his knee. So I asked God, was Moses the best you could find, what didn't anyone back then use their logical mind?

Finally I read of Joshua marching around that wall. I'm not questioning tactics, but soldiering was not his call. So I said to God, was Joshua mentally all right, I mean everyone knows the best time to attack is late at night. God said, you're reading about My children who lived to obey, the ones who waited on my voice and did it no other way. IT WAS BY FAITH that Abraham prepared to sacrifice his son. He didn't question from where he would get another one. IT WAS BY FAITH that Moses led them into the Red Sea. You see Moses believed in God, yes Moses believed in Me! IT WAS BY FAITH that Joshua marched round and round. He didn't doubt for a second that the wall would tumble down. And this is what I ask of My children today, but you can't imagine how hard it is to find a group to obey.

I have some who can walk that line a little while, I'm looking for marathoners who are consistent mile after mile. Then I have those who get on their knees and pray, asking Me to just this one time let them do it their way. What My children have got to understand is I'll call on the rocks if necessary to complete My plan. Tell them to get on with what they were told by me to do. My children know My voice they won't confuse me and you. But tell them right now to get into place, I don't want to leave anyone here when I withdraw My grace. I could tell by the words He spoke this was no joke, God is getting ready to open the heavens and retrieve His folk.
