The Peaceable Fruit Of Righteousness


Ohh How I have invited the Lord to share with me areas of my life that would cause me to miss the mark. For you see God is Omnipotent, Omniscient, he is truly powerful. As we allow him to correct us, we begin to hook up to his resources. I remember Joshua who began a successful campaign In causing the children of Israel to inherit the Land promised to them. There came an instances when there victory was overthrown. Joshua came before the Lord deeply disturbed. God did not withhold the light needed to cause their connection to return and victory to continue. Fear not to enquire of the Lord on every matter that is not connected to his loving source.

Joshua 7:6-12
6 Then Joshua tore his clothes and fell facedown to the ground before the ark of the Lord, remaining there till evening. The elders of Israel did the same, and sprinkled dust on their heads. 7 And Joshua said, “Alas, Sovereign Lord, why did you ever bring this people across the Jordan to deliver us into the hands of the Amorites to destroy us? If only we had been content to stay on the other side of the Jordan! 8 Pardon your servant, Lord. What can I say, now that Israel has been routed by its enemies? 9 The Canaanites and the other people of the country will hear about this and they will surround us and wipe out our name from the earth. What then will you do for your own great name?”
10 The Lord said to Joshua, “Stand up! What are you doing down on your face? 11 Israel has sinned; they have violated my covenant, which I commanded them to keep. They have taken some of the devoted things; they have stolen, they have lied, they have put them with their own possessions. 12 That is why the Israelites cannot stand against their enemies; they turn their backs and run because they have been made liable to destruction. I will not be with you anymore unless you destroy whatever among you is devoted to destruction.
