Franklin Joshua chapter

11 I’ll just read verse 6 and maybe

verse

8 but the Lord said to Joshua do not be

afraid everybody say that do not be

afraid do not be afraid because of them

let’s say it do not be afraid because of

them I don’t know who I’m preaching to

but I want to tell you do not be afraid

because of

them for tomorrow about this time I will

deliver all of them slain before

Israel and you’ll hamstring their horses

and burn their chariots with

fire verse eight and the Lord delivered

them into the hand of Israel who

defeated them and I’ll stop there I want

to talk to you about this

miracle and I want to share share with

you what happened in the leadup to this

miracle I want to preach for a few

moments about a Fearless Spirit a

conquering Spirit a spirit of victory

that God wants on his people I believe

in this time Joshua was a brilliant

strategist he was a man who was very

gifted very able and yet he felt so

insecure that God when he called him to

stand in the footsteps of a legend named

Moses God said as I was with Moses so I

will be with you and then this is all in

Joshua chapter one God said to him four

times in that

chapter but in order for you to fulfill

the assignment that I have on your life

it is imperative that you not allow fear

to dominate you fear will cause you to

not perform the task that I have called

you to and he says to him in one anytime

God repeats something over and over to

the same person fear not fear not fear

not fear not it is because God is

acknowledging that even though I have a

plan and even though I have a purpose if

you allow fear to overwhelm you then you

will not do what I really wanted you to

do because fear can paralyze you fear

not be of good

courage I will give you the land to

possess

it and you cannot in this season Joshua

after all of the waiting of 40 Years of

wering in the wilderness after all of

the time of hoping and praying that some

something would change the change is

here it is a new season and it’s time to

cross over and possess the

land and you

cannot look weak

look frail look as though you are your

knees are shaking I want you to have

faith and I want you to look

Fearless the amazing thing thing about

and contrast about being a Christian is

even when you don’t feel strong you are

strong 2 Corinthians 12 and verse 9

says that when we are weak it says for

his grace is sufficient for us and when

we when when we are weak then he is

strong his strength is made perfect in

our weakness

and so when you feel at your weakest

when you feel incapable that is when you

are leaning on him depending on him it’s

a good place to be because his strength

cannot be perect perfected when we feel

strong and capable his strength is only

released to us when we feel weak but we

know we’re in the place God told us to

be and even when you’re scared to death

you can look like a

giant how do I know that cuz I do that a

lot on Sundays right

here hallelujah and God is faithful

Hallelujah I mean that I walk up here

and I

feel when I look at these pitiful little

notes I feel like Jesus help help help

help there is nothing in that that makes

me feel confident it is only when I

recognize that God put me here and God

put you there and God gets all the glory

when we’re at our weakest that’s when

he’s so strong Hallelujah I’m I’m

getting happy and I don’t mean to be and

I don’t know why I am but I feel burst

of

Joy Hallelujah that I don’t have to be

strong all the time and I don’t have to

be great all the time all I have to be

is make sure I’m shining Jesus Through

Me and if he they they took note of them

they had been with the Lord they were

ignorant fishermen the Bible said not

that fishermen are ignorant but those

were

Hallelujah from the beginning Joshua was

told don’t be

afraid I want you Joshua in this new

season have a Fearless

spirit it’s a season to conquer it’s a

season to

possess and he said possess the land the

word possess does not mean to ask for it

the the the it does not mean to to to

try it means to take acquisition of to

possess it to take it

over and

I believe that is the spirit that is

coming upon the church in this critical

hour in human history and in the nation

that we’re in we are at a major

Crossroad and the Lord does not want a

fearful church he wants a militant

church he wants a mighty church he wants

an aggressive church he wants a

triumphant church that says we are here

for such a time as this and we’re taking

the land we’re taking the country look

bold into the devil’s face and say in

the name of Jesus we depossession you

get out in the name of we

dispossess in the name of Jesus get out

Joshua had three battles instantly that

he had to face before he could possess

the land and this is what happened in

Joshua 3 and verse 14 and it came to

pass that when they

moved when they were ready to Camp

across over the Jordan that the priest

bearing the Ark of the Covenant before

the people bore the ark and came to

Jordan and when the feet of the priest

Who Bore the ark dipped to the edge of

the water this is so

important Jordan began to overflow its

banks during the time of harvest the

waters which came down from Upstream

Stood Still I want you to see what this

says it says for Jordan the King James

says for Jordan overflowed all its banks

at the time of

harvest you never get the Harvest from

God this is a Bible

principle right when you’re ready to

walk across right when you’re ready to

go the enemy comes in like a flood a

flood came and Jordan begin to swell for

Jordan overflows all its banks at the

time of the Harvest you never get the

Harvest without the

flood if the flood comes it means that

you’re closer to the Harvest than you’ve

ever been you get right to the door of

Revival and suddenly it’s flood stage

and the enemy does everything he can to

stop a family to stop a person from

being saved and and and it’s so amazing

it seemed like hell was Unleashed right

when they were about to step into what

God had for them the flood came and the

way that you will see this in your life

and I can say it’s true in mine you will

Mark you will Mark the floods and you

will Mark your Miracles by crisis that

you face the flood tide of that attack

of the enemy right before you moved in

on one side the river is flooding and it

looks impossible it looks dangerous I

mean it’s one thing to try to cross a

river even when it’s up to your waist or

neck that’s that the current is strong

but when it’s flooding you don’t take a

heavy Arc of the Covenant with the stone

tablets made of gold took seven men to

carry it and step up to the bank of the

river and step in to a flooding of the

dam has broke and the river is flooding

I don’t suggest you do that but God told

Joshua to get out 2,000

cubits in front of millions of

Israelites who were watching and you go

first with my presence the Ark of the

Covenant and he said you’ve never been

this way before where I’m taking you see

I believe that first the natural then

the spiritual I believe that we’re about

to see a harvest in in the kingdom of

God

worldwide like we have never seen in the

last days sayth God I will pour out my

spirit on All Flesh and everybody say

Gainesville is not going to miss that

we’re going to be in that flow of the

river this week in Jesus name now give

the Lord a praise I believe it I don’t

know if you’ve seen Jordan swell and

tell you you can’t have it you can’t go

there it’ll never happen but if you’re

facing the flood tide it’s just a

confirmation that on one side you will

Mark your Miracle by that

flood that right before my husband got

saved the enemy puffed up and like a

flood the enemy came in but when you get

to the other side side you’ll look back

and mark your miracle from that crisis

right before my business broke through

right before God rearranged me and gave

me the next step in the next in the new

season right before a breakthrough came

the the the the the flood came and

Jordan

swell and a voice said stay right where

you are you’re not going cross and

possessing what God said you can

possess and I want you to understand

that when you’re at the greatest impass

of your life that just means that only

Harvest comes only in the time of

flooding of

Jordan it’s the flood that brings you

into the promises Joshua G out front for

you have not passed this way before

you’ve never seen I want to say it like

I want to say it Free

Chapel you’ve never seen a

Revival like you’re about to see I’m

going to go on and talk Faith we’ve

never seen healings like we are going to

see these are the last days it’s time

for the church to believe in miracles

again

we have never seen our families on fire

for Jesus like we are going to see

somebody get up on your feet and say

Jordan you’re going to part Hallelujah

Jordan the enemy sends the flood but our

God rides on the flood the Bible said in

Psalms that the voice of the Lord is in

the flood Hallelujah and the Bible said

he is been

thrown on the waters and the

[Applause]

flood the second thing that

happened and I want you to hear

it is not only did he have to overcome a

natural

obstacle and brother Joshua did overcome

the natural because the Bible said as

soon as as the soul of his foot touched

the water God will require that step of

Faith won’t

he he says Nah as long as you stay on

the bank and I could almost see Joshua

doing like this I’m going to get right

here on the bank and God says no you’re

still not in Miracle territory you’re

not in Miracle territory until you step

out on nothing but what I’ve told you

and the moment you step out on what I

how many of you are worried that I’m

going to fall and break my leg it’s

because you don’t have any

faith I’m about to jump I feel like

jumping I feel happy this morning I feel

like something’s coming I feel a river

of Joy I feel ezekiel’s River in my

ankles and in my knees and coming up and

it’s going to be River to swim in I’m

expecting God to do something I don’t

know why but I’ve got expectation

something’s going to

happen and the Bible said the moment

that the soles of his feet touched the

water the water parted on both sides and

he walks out 2,000

cubits and gets in the middle of that

River and all those people saw it and I

love the the the accuracy of God’s word

and it said and they all walk across on

dry land they didn’t even have mud

between their toes they didn’t even get

stuck in their sandals in the in the in

the mud puddles there were no mud

puddles they walked across on dry

land it’s not going to be as hard as you

thought it

was and then the second thing happens

when they get

across they made it through

natural obstacles

the natural the the swelling of

Jordan Joshua needed God’s help in

defeating the enemies and he said well

if God could part that River now that I

got the enemy on the run and and dark

daylight is going away I need another

natural miracle and he points his finger

at the Sun and says I might as well use

this thing since I’ve seen God do

something so great son stand still this

is Joshua chapter 10 and the Bible said

the son stood

still God interrupted the whole

universe Natural Things can’t stop you

but then he gets across and then there’s

a city called Jericho and it’s a

man-made

obstacle the walls were built so high

these farmers had never seen anything

like those walls 65 ft High the ruins

are still there in Jericho I’ve seen

them and been there many times and

there’s they’ve never been rebuilt they

just are there and they’re flat they’re

they’re crumbled and there’s ancient

Stones down in the

ground and the walls 65 ft High wide

enough to race chariots side by side

around

and they look up and the man-made

obstacles said you cannot have what God

says you can have they built the walls

to keep them

out the will of the enemy is to

frustrate us if he can’t get you to

backslide he wants you to be held back

to be shut out to be blocked out he

wants you to give in to man-made

obstacles that say you cannot have what

God says you can have and I’m telling

you today that his formula was very

simple God spoke to Joshua and he

said I want you to tell the people to

March seven times around the walls of

Jericho and on the seventh day I want

them to blow the trumpet after they do

it seven times on the seventh day and

blow the trumpet and Shout

and when they shout the walls of Jericho

will fall and then he added something J

Joshua said now I want you to March

around the walls of Jericho and you can

read this when he gives the instructions

and he says do not say a word zip your

lip I don’t want to hear you talk I

don’t want to hear you whine I you know

why he did that because 40 years before

right when they were on the brink of

crossing over under

Moses he sent 12 Spies to spy out the

land and two came back one was named

Caleb and one was named Joshua the same

Joshua and he said we’re well able to

take the land let’s go let’s go but the

10 spies said we can’t do it there’s

Giants in the land oh they are great

people oh we’re nothing we can’t do it

and they taught them out of the miracle

and Joshua said let me just preach it

like I want to Joshua said zip your lips

and if anybody says one word for the

next seven days kill

them I don’t want you to talk yourself

out of a

miracle so just be quiet and keep taking

steps

forward and watch what I’ll do I

preached a whole sermon on that on that

one time called

quiet a miracle is in

progress

Hallelujah get quiet about your fears

and get loud about how Mighty your God

is and on the seventh time they shouted

and the walls fell down and the manmade

walls are going to fall this week

in the name of

Jesus I believe in Kingdom connections I

believe that God knows when you need to

hear what you need to hear and this is

your moment this is your

hour this is where you change the

direction of your life not in your own

strength but because of the blood of

Jesus Christ you can turn and you can

change and you can see that cleansing

power gloriously set you free today pray

missile attacks we have consulted Ed

with the top Security Experts and they

all agree this is a must to keep those

precious families safe I’m simply asking

do this project without you but there is

a promise found in Genesis 12 and3 I

will bless those who bless you Israel

loves and God favors there is a blessing

that that will come into your life and

what we’re doing together in the nation

of

Israel on October 7 Israel was attacked

by the dark Forces of Hamas it was the

worst massacre the Jewish people

experienced since the Holocaust the

eshal region in southern Israel was

attacked directly women faced

unspeakable atrocities and infants were

assassinated numerous families were

burnt alive and both mothers and their

babies and Holocaust survivors were

abducted to the Hamas tunnels in GSA and

now we stand at a pivotal moment poised

to provide a Lifeline for the people of

eshal who continue to be attacked by

terrorists every

day Jensen Franklin media Ministries

recently committed the largest amount of

funding ever towards the initiative

provides physical safety that is why we

are building civil defense centers and

over 800 safe houses making sure every

family in the region has a safe room in

case of terrorist attacks this is home

place we can be and this safe room

became our little Safe Haven it’s

something that every single person in

our area needs I can’t stress it enough

October and it will continue to save

lives when you give to a project like
