Have you ever taken a moment to identify your financial obstacles and considered how to tackle them?
These obstacles might be caused by job loss, mounting debt, bankruptcy, difficulties with mortgage repayments, unexpected expenses, or a combination of factors. Regardless of your situation, these barriers can be overcome.
Consider this example from the Bible: In Joshua chapter 6, Jericho was a military fortress and virtually impossible to defeat. Yet, God had already promised victory to His people, even before the battle began. Joshua and his soldiers were to view Jericho as already defeated. The city’s thick, towering walls were a terrifying obstacle, but they trusted in God’s promise. With God’s guidance and their perseverance, they witnessed those walls collapse:
“Now Jericho was securely shut up because of the children of Israel; none went out, and none came in. And the Lord said to Joshua: ‘See! I have given Jericho into your hand, its king, and the mighty men of valour. You shall march around the city, all you men of war… It shall come to pass, when they make a long blast with the ram’s horn, and when you hear the sound of the trumpet, that all the people shall shout with a great shout; then the wall of the city will fall down flat. And the people shall go up every man straight before him.” (Joshua 6:1-3, 5)
The walls became ruins, demonstrating one of the greatest manifestations of God’s power. No matter how impossible the obstacles may seem, nothing can prevent God from working as He did then. Just as the walls of Jericho fell through the faith and obedience of the people, the walls in your life can fall too, enabling you to seize the blessings awaiting you.
Like the Israelites, faith must be put into action to overcome life’s challenges, and the same principle applies today. Many people want results without effort or faith, but faith requires action.
To break down the walls blocking your prosperity, join us this Monday, 7th October. There will also be a special blessing for all immigrants as we begin our first cry out for the walls to fall down. Just as the children of Israel circled Jericho 13 times, we will dedicate the next 13 Mondays, leading up to the end of the year, to believing by faith that the walls in our financial lives will also collapse.
Event: The First Cry Out for the Walls to Fall Down
Date and time: Starting Monday, 7th October at 7:30pm (also at 7am, 10am & 3pm)
