TOPIC: COMMANDING THE YEAR ( PART 3 ) - THE FORCE OF COURAGE

TEXT: "Be strong and of good courage,  fear not, nor be afraid of them; For the LORD thy God, He it is that doth go with thee; He will not fail thee nor forsake thee"(Deut.31:6)

It takes a heart of courage to walk with God and accomplish great things in His name. And courage is the mental fortitude to take the required action regardless of the circumstances or sotuation.
When God sent Joshua to divide the land to the twelve tribes of Israel, He told him that courage is a capital requiment to take the promise land. Courage is not a gift, it's an ability that is consciously developed.  Are you feeling frightened by something God has asked you to do? The truth is this everyone that the LORD  has sent to do something significant also was frightened but they acted, and made the move regardless of how daunting the task is. The greatest enemy of courage is inferiority mentality. Its the feeling and a sense of inadequacy that comes when you are faced with a challenging situation.  And inferiority is the mother of fear and timidity and fear paralyzes your creativity and arrest your potentials. In Numbers 23:25-33 Moses sent out twelve spies to view the land ten of them came back with bad reports of how they will not be able to take the land and that they looked like grasshoppers before the Giants in the land but two people (Joshua and Caleb )  had different mind sets. While the rest died in the wilderness only Joshua and Caleb went to take the promise land. Your perception determines your destiny possibilities.  Mentality is what determines detiny.(see Pro 23:7). To develop the attitude of courage you need to know that GOD has sent you, He is behind you, He will never fail you, so you are well able to make your destiny happen this year because we serve a God who is more than able. A wise man said the antelope that has the backing of a lion will confront and elephant. Its time for you to confront and conquer!
