CRY TO THE LORD SYRIA

Cry to the Lord,God Syria!
He hears the small
as well as the great.
Say you not we have no oil.
See you oil in India?
Have they oil in China?
He's got his ways,
to prosper the nations.

Great rulers rush to kings
whose economy stand healthy
they make ties with the wealthy
But you Syria known by God,
let your help come from him
let the world know there is God,
who shows up in battle,
to defend the oppressed.

HOW DID JOSHUA BECAME THE LEADER AFTER MOSES?

Joshua was helping Moses through out perhaps thats when he acquired the leadership skills.He was also among the spies who went to check the promised land and gave a good report.

Joshua and Caleb were the people who gave a good report and encouraged the Israelites to conquer Canaan.They ignored the size of their enemies whom the other group called giants.Joshua and Caleb knew their God and trusted in him to fight for them and they said; Do not rebel against God and don't be afraid of the people of the land.They are only helpless prey to us,they have no protection, but the Lord is with us! don't be afraid of them.(Numbers 14:9)
Joshua had seen the power of God before and that is why he was positive about the whole process of conquering the land. He was a commander when the Israelites defeated the Amalekites(Exodus 17:13)
The other group's report did not please God because they exalted the enemies other than God, they did not believe him after all the miracles he had performed among them. We now learn that God did not allow them to enter the promised land.

Joshua now became the leader as they crossed Jordan(Joshua 1:2).Actually it was Joshua who led them. It could be that God is always looking for people who can trust him, those who can say God will see us through this. That faith which is in you will attract him to come and work with you.
If you trust him he will take you through because there are no giants before God.The other reporters saw themselves as grasshoppers, that means they did not recognise the presence of God among them but he was leading them day and night.There are some challenges which makes us feel the same but today's message is a reminder,if God is among us we are great people.Joshua witnessed the fall of Jericho with his kolo kolo eyes(natural eyes), he saw and spoke with the fighting angel who introduced himself as "The commander of the lord's army"(Joshua 5:13).

May the confessions of your mouth be in line with God's purpose upon your life
May your spiritual eyes open to see Gods army fighting on your side.
May your town be alloted to you and bear your name ie Pokoyoyo city, Topolino city, please put your name it is your enherited/promised land.
