BEAUTY FOR ASHES
   

Isaiah 61:3 ... To give them Beauty for Ashes

The good news of salvation is that Jesus Christ has come to give you beauty for ashes. We all have our ashy and dusty places and points in our lives. At times, we feel very inadequate in our service to God and less compared to others. Moses was a stammer but nonetheless God overlooked that and there has never arisen a prophet like him. Paul before his conversion was a terror top the body of christ, he eventually became His great apostle. Solomon was born of Bathsheba and David, however he became a king and the wisest man on earth. Sarah bore Isaac at the age of 90 years. David defeated Goliath while a shepherd boy. Out of the manger, Jesus Christ was born.
What is it in your life that is ashes that you want Christ to beautify?

BECAUSE YOU ASK A MISS
   

1 kings 3:5-14
"Ask. what shall I give you."
Before King Solomon asked what he wanted, he recognized;
1. the responsibility ahead of him
2. the people he was to lead were God's
3. what he needed to lead them
4. the predecessor walked before God in truth, in righteousness and in uprightness.
5. God was with these people,
6. he was inadequate but expressed the desire to be like his father,
7. his leadership was part of the inheritance

These elements in his prayer pleased God and He not only gave him an understanding heart but also riches and honor.
Matthew 7:7
God has given as the liberty to ask because He is more than willing to give us. However, when we ask, do we please God in the contents and intents of our hearts.

ARISE GO OVER THIS JORDAN
   

Israel had come to an end of their exodus. Between them and the land of promise was the Jordan. God commissioned Joshua after Moses had died. With the commissioning there were promises and conditions which he had to observe:
Promises
1. Every place that the soul of your foot will tread upon I have given you.
2. No man shall be able to stand before you all the days of your life; as I was with Moses so will I be with you. I will not leave you nor forsake you.
3. For to this people you shall divide as an inheritance the land which I swore to your fathers
4. You may prosper wherever you go
5. For then you will make your way prosperous and then you will have good success
