0:03 we open the word of God to the book of
0:06 Hebrews we're thinking today about
0:10 Joshua as a picture of the Lord Jesus
0:12 Christ a
0:14 type and so we're reading Hebrews chapter
0:16 chapter
0:18 2 verses
0:33 thou Hast put all things in subjection
0:35 under his
0:38 feet for in that he put all in
0:40 subjection under him he left nothing
0:42 that is not put under
0:46 him but now we see not yet all things
0:49 put under him but we see
0:52 Jesus who was made a little lower than
0:56 the angels for the suffering of death
1:00 crowned with Glory and Honor that he by
1:03 the grace of God should taste death for every
1:04 every
1:09 man for it became him for whom are all
1:12 things and by whom are all things in
1:16 bringing many sons un glory to make the
1:18 captain of their
1:22 salvation perfect through
1:25 sufferings chapter 4 verse
1:29 one let us therefore fear lest a
1:32 promised being left us of entering into
1:35 his rest any of you should seem to come
1:39 short of it for unto us was the Gospel
1:42 preached as well as unto them but the
1:46 word preached did not profit them not
1:48 being mixed with faith in them that
1:53 heard it for we who have believ do enter
1:57 into rest as he said as I have sworn in
2:01 my wrath if they shall enter into my
2:03 rest although the works were finished
2:05 from the foundation of the
2:08 world for he spoke in a certain place of
2:12 the seventh day in this way and God did
2:16 rest the seventh day from all his works
2:19 and in this place again if they shall
2:21 enter into my
2:25 rest seeing therefore it remaineth that
2:29 some must enter into it and they to whom
2:31 it was first preached entered not in
2:33 because of
2:36 unbelief again he limith a certain day
2:40 saying in David today after so long a
2:44 time as it is said today if you will
2:48 hear his voice Harden not your hearts
2:51 for if Joshua had given them
2:54 rest then would he not afterward have
2:55 spoken of another
3:00 day there remaineth therefore a rest to
3:03 the people of God for he that is entered
3:06 into his rest he also hath ceased from
3:11 his own works as God did from his let us
3:15 labor therefore to enter into that rest
3:20 lest any man fall after the same example of
3:22 of
3:28 unbelief and that rest is found in Jesus
3:30 Christ the the only thing that most
3:34 people know about Joshua is that he fit
3:36 the Battle of
3:39 Jericho and this is really
3:41 unfortunate the Hebrew people have
3:46 produced many Giants throughout
3:50 history Abraham who forsook idolatry to
3:52 worship the true
3:56 God Joseph who preserved the nation when
3:58 he went to
4:02 Egypt Moses the great legislator David
4:04 the great
4:08 king the prophets like Isaiah and
4:11 Jeremiah John the
4:13 Baptist our lord
4:18 Jesus truly salvation is of the
4:22 Jews and among the Great Men of the
4:24 Hebrew nation is
4:26 Joshua and you and I had better get to
4:29 know this man Joshua because he is the
4:32 Nam sake of our Lord
4:38 Jesus Joshua is the uh name
4:43 jehoshua which means Jehovah is
4:45 salvation and by the time you get to the
4:49 New Testament it becomes Jesus Thou
4:52 shalt call his name Jesus for he shall
4:54 save his people from their
4:57 sins and so Joshua is a picture to us of
5:00 the Lord Jesus Christ
5:02 and it is in this way I'd like to
5:05 approach Joshua in this message
5:08 today you see Joshua is known for three great
5:10 great
5:12 achievements it was Joshua who brought
5:16 the people into the promised land it was
5:19 Joshua who led their armies as they
5:22 conquered the promised land and it was
5:24 Joshua who helped them to lay hold of their
5:26 their
5:28 inheritance now these three great
5:31 achievements of of
5:36 Joshua are also achievements of the Lord
5:38 Jesus did you know my friend that the
5:40 Lord Jesus Christ your
5:44 Joshua can bring you into the
5:48 land that the Lord Jesus Christ your
5:51 Joshua can give you victory over the
5:54 enemy and the Lord Jesus Christ your
5:58 Joshua can help you to claim your inheritance
6:00 inheritance
6:02 now these are the three achievements I'd
6:03 like us to think about let's take the first
6:05 first
6:09 one Jesus Christ like Joshua helps us to
6:13 enter the land now when you read the Old
6:15 Testament you have to realize that the
6:18 geography is
6:21 inspired whenever God talks about Egypt
6:23 he's talking about much more than just
6:27 simply a piece of property when he talks
6:29 about Canaan he's not just talking about
6:30 about a piece of
6:34 geography in the word of God places like
6:37 Egypt and Jerusalem and Bethlehem have
6:40 much deeper spiritual meanings this is
6:43 not true in our Atlas if you take a map
6:46 of Illinois though there are places in
6:48 Illinois that have deep historical
6:51 interest to them none of them is
6:54 inspired but in the word of God Egypt
6:58 stands for something and the Wilderness
7:00 stands for something
7:04 and Canaan land stands for something in
7:06 fact everybody listening to me right now
7:09 is in one of those three
7:12 locations I don't mean geographically I
7:15 mean spiritually you see Egypt is a
7:17 picture of the
7:20 world and when you're living in Egypt
7:24 it's a picture of being lost being in
7:26 bondage when the nation of Israel was in
7:30 the land of Egypt they were slaves
7:31 they were being
7:33 whipped they were being
7:36 tormented and in the land of Egypt you
7:40 have the picture of condemnation and
7:48 sin God delivered the nation of Israel
7:50 from the land of Egypt he did it by the
7:53 power of the blood of the
7:57 Lamb on that Passover night it was the
8:00 blood of the Lamb on the door HST that
8:04 delivered the people of Egypt from the
8:07 death the Judgment of death that was
8:09 upon the land and then God opened up the
8:12 Red Sea and they marched through and he
8:14 closed the Red Sea and when he closed
8:17 the Red Sea he closed a chapter in the
8:21 lives of those people Egypt is a picture
8:22 of the lost
8:25 man and I suppose I speak to some right
8:28 now who are spiritually speaking living
8:30 in Egypt you're
8:31 you're
8:34 enslaved you are in
8:37 bondage you are under the worst task
8:39 master a person can endure
8:41 endure
8:45 sin for the wages of sin is
8:50 death and the soul that sinth it shall
8:53 die now you don't have to stay in Egypt
8:55 you can be delivered by the blood of the
8:58 Lamb this is why here at Moody Church
9:00 day after day and week after week we
9:03 Proclaim to people that Jesus Christ has
9:06 died for the sins of the world he is the
9:09 Lamb that was slain from before the
9:11 foundation of the world and through the
9:13 blood of Jesus Christ there is
9:16 deliverance from sin and from bondage
9:18 and from
9:21 Death now God's plan for the nation of
9:24 Israel was to bring them out of Egypt
9:28 into Canaan because Canaan is a picture
9:32 of our in inheritance in
9:35 Christ Canaan is not a picture of Heaven
9:37 it's unfortunate that in some of our
9:39 very fine hymns and gospel songs when
9:41 you get to the last verse they have you
9:44 Crossing Jordan and going into Canaan land
9:45 land
9:48 dying and this is not
9:51 scriptural in the word of God Canaan is
9:53 not a picture of Heaven because when
9:55 they got into Canaan land they had to
9:57 fight I trust when we get to heaven
9:59 we'll not have to fight the Lord knows
10:02 we've had enough fighting down here no
10:05 Canaan land is a picture of The
10:07 Inheritance that we have in Christ we
10:10 have been delivered from the bondage of
10:14 Egypt and now we are to enter in to all
10:18 of the fullness and the blessing and the
10:22 rest that God offers us in
10:27 Christ now sad to say in between Egypt
10:30 and Canaan is the wilderness
10:33 and God's plan for Israel was that they
10:37 make that 11-day Journey from Egypt to
10:40 the border of Canaan and then go
10:43 in but they said well we're not sure we
10:45 should go let's spy the land out they
10:47 already knew what the land was like God
10:49 told them what the land was like God
10:52 said it's a land of Hills and Valleys
10:55 it's a land of milk and honey it's a
10:58 land where you can get iron out of the
10:59 Rocks it's a land where you can get
11:02 honey out of the Rocks it's a land that
11:05 God watches over day and night a land
11:08 upon which he sends the
11:10 rain they knew what the land was like
11:14 but they're just like um people today oh
11:16 I'm afraid to do what God wants me to do
11:19 I don't know what may happen I'll tell
11:21 you what will happen if you do what God
11:24 wants you to do you'll be blessed and so
11:26 they sent the spies in and the spies
11:28 came back and it was a typical religious
11:34 divided the majority said we'll never
11:38 make it there are giants in the land we
11:42 look like grasshoppers next to
11:45 them I think God can take care of
11:48 grasshoppers and their cities the walls
11:50 are so high we looked at the men and
11:52 they were this high and we looked at the
11:54 walls and they were that high if they
11:56 would just kept look kept looking a
11:58 little higher they would have seen God
12:00 but they didn't they said we'll never
12:02 make it and they all began to weep they
12:04 said oh would to God we would have
12:07 stayed in Egypt oh let's go back let's
12:10 go back but two of the spies Caleb and
12:14 Joshua said we can do it God is for us
12:16 God has called us the God who opened up
12:19 the Red Sea can take us into
12:21 Canaan and you remember what happened
12:25 the majority voted not to go in and for
12:27 40 years they wandered around in the
12:30 wilderness and this is is where most
12:32 Believers are
12:35 today oh how sad it is that so many of
12:38 us have been delivered from Egypt that's
12:41 salvation but we have never by faith
12:44 entered into Canaan and here we are
12:46 wandering around did you ever read what
12:47 they did while they were wandering
12:49 around in the wilderness they [Music]
12:51 [Music]
12:52 complained now you don't read that they
12:55 complained in Canaan land I find one
12:58 time in Joshua where they murmured they
13:00 murmured at their leaders for making a
13:03 wrong decision but you don't find them
13:05 murmuring in Joshua like you do back in
13:08 numbers they murmured and they murmured
13:10 and they murmured and poor Moses would
13:12 put his ear would put his hands over his
13:15 ears and say oh God have I begotten all
13:17 of these people that I have to take them
13:20 like a mother and nurse them whenever
13:23 you find a complaining Christian mark it
13:26 down he's wandering in the
13:28 wilderness and they always want to go
13:31 back as they were wand they'd say oh
13:33 let's go back to Egypt let's go back to
13:36 the leaks and the onions and the garlic
13:39 oh let's go back when we had all that
13:41 security ah but it was not Liberty we
13:44 don't care we would rather have security
13:47 than be wering here in the
13:49 wilderness whenever you find a Christian
13:51 who says I want to go back to the old
13:54 life go back to the old amusements go
13:57 back to the old diet you write it down
14:00 he's walking in the wilderness
14:02 you see God wants us to enter into
14:04 Canaan and this is where Joshua comes in
14:07 how do you get into
14:09 Canaan well you don't get in with
14:12 Moses the first thing it says in the
14:15 Book of Joshua is Moses my servant is
14:19 dead the law will never take you into
14:22 your inheritance oh you say I'm going to
14:24 pray six times a day and I'm going to
14:27 tithe and I won't do this and I won't do
14:29 that and I'll make a list of rules my
14:31 friend you'll be miserable when you do
14:32 that you're putting yourself into
14:35 bondage God never wanted that God says
14:38 Moses is not going to take you into the
14:42 promised land the law can never do this
14:45 Joshua is going to take you in
14:49 yosua Jehovah is our Salvation Jesus is
14:51 going to take you
14:56 in through Christ we enter the land now
15:00 how do you do this well
15:02 well to get out of Egypt you need the
15:04 blood of the
15:07 Lamb that's how you're saved if somebody
15:09 here today says Pastor I am in bondage
15:12 to sin and I want to get out of that
15:14 bondage I say to you you need the blood
15:18 of the Lamb what can wash away our sin
15:20 nothing but the blood of Jesus would you
15:23 be free from the burden of sin there's
15:26 power in the
15:29 blood but you get into Canaan like
15:33 Land by crossing a
15:36 river you see when God wanted to get the
15:39 Jews out of Egypt he killed a lamb When
15:42 what when God wanted to get them into
15:45 Canaan he opened a river and he said I
15:47 want you to go through this River
15:50 walking through the Jordan River is not
15:52 a picture of dying we get this from
15:55 Pilgrim's Progress when Pilgrim gets to
15:57 the end of his journey he goes through
16:01 the river and gets to the Heavenly City
16:03 it's not that way in the
16:07 Bible no crossing the Jordan River means
16:09 dying to
16:12 self it means coming to that place where
16:15 I turn everything over to the Lord and
16:18 God said Joshua is your leader you
16:22 listen to Joshua you obey Joshua you
16:23 trust what he
16:27 does and God says to me Jesus is your
16:29 Joshua and you know the thing that keeps
16:32 you in the wilderness is your own
16:34 stubbornness you've got to have your own
16:37 way and your own will and when you come
16:40 to Jordan you've got to die to that let
16:44 me put it this way coming out of Egypt
16:49 means Christ died for me going into
16:54 Canaan means I died with
16:57 Christ coming out of Egypt is Romans
17:00 chap 5
17:03 God commendeth his love toward us in
17:05 that while we were yet sinners Christ
17:08 died for us coming into Canaan is Romans
17:11 6 reckon yourselves to be dead indeed
17:16 unto sin and Alive unto God through
17:19 Christ you see too many of us don't want
17:21 to have that kind of an experience we
17:23 want to stay in the wilderness where we
17:25 can still have a little bit of
17:29 Egypt we can have our own self-will I
17:31 would remind you if that crowd that
17:34 wandered in the wilderness
17:37 died scripture says there are carcasses
17:39 were buried in the wilderness oh if you
17:41 want to kill your testimony and kill
17:44 your joy and kill your power stay in the
17:46 wilderness but oh if you want to know
17:50 the fullness of Life In Christ cross the Jordan
17:51 Jordan
17:55 River die to self now when God opened up
17:57 the Jordan River he said to Joshua put
17:59 some stones in in the middle of this
18:02 River 12 of them and they did and then
18:04 the waters came and buried them he said
18:07 put 12 more Stones here on the shore and
18:09 they did and the children came and said
18:12 what are these 12 Stones on the shore
18:15 and father said uh oh there's 12 more in
18:16 the middle of the river there are how do
18:19 you know we put them there all what's it
18:22 mean it means that we went through this
18:25 River and when we did the old life was
18:27 buried and we came out to live in
18:29 newness of life
18:30 kind of a picture of baptism
18:32 baptism
18:36 buried with Christ and raised to walk in
18:38 newness of
18:41 life has Jesus Christ ever had the
18:45 privilege of taking you into
18:47 Canaan or are you still wandering in the
18:51 wilderness or worse yet are you still in
18:54 Egypt these three geographical locations
18:56 picture the three kinds of people in the
18:59 world today the natural man
19:03 Egypt the carnal man the Wilderness the
19:08 spiritual man Canaan land through Christ
19:11 we enter the land
19:14 secondly through Christ we conquer the
19:17 enemy no sooner did they get into Canaan
19:23 land than they faced an impossible task
19:25 Jericho I've met multitudes of
19:28 Christians who have said pastor we've
19:31 died to self by faith we have yielded to
19:33 the Lord we've been trying to live a
19:35 spiritual life we've been praying and
19:38 reading the word and obeying him and oh
19:42 are we facing the problems what's wrong
19:45 nothing one of the evidences that you've
19:48 gotten into Canaan land is that you face
19:50 almost impossible
19:52 situations when they were wandering in
19:55 the wilderness they didn't face too many
19:58 impossible situations God fed them and
20:01 God gave them water and and God LED them
20:04 and God waited until the whole crowd of
20:06 old people had died off and he took the
20:09 young crowd and started all over again
20:11 oh but you cross Jordan River and there
20:14 you are what's that
20:18 Jericho look at those
20:21 walls look at that we can't do it oh
20:23 wait a minute the same God who opened
20:27 the river and brought you through can
20:29 give you the victory
20:31 how did they take
20:34 Jericho they simply trusted the word of
20:37 God that's all God said to Joshua be
20:41 strong and of a good courage this word
20:44 of the law shall not depart out of thy
20:46 mouth now we carry the Bible in our
20:49 hands physically we ought to carry it in
20:52 our hearts and our mouths spiritually he
20:54 said Joshua I want you to chew on the
20:58 word I want you to meditate on the word
21:01 just like a cow chews its cud I want you
21:04 to take the word of God and chew on it
21:07 because this word gives you faith faith
21:09 comes by hearing and hearing by the word
21:12 of God he says Joshua every place you
21:15 put your feet I'll give it to you now
21:18 Joshua just step out by faith here's the
21:22 word step out by faith I'm going to
21:23 watch your feet and I'm going to watch
21:26 your mouth if you've got my word in your
21:29 mouth and you're stepping out by faith
21:32 you'll make it lots of Christians have
21:34 got hoof and mouth
21:37 disease they won't step out by faith and
21:39 they don't take time to chew on the word
21:43 of God and so here stands Jericho and
21:45 Joshua said let's have a parade and they
21:48 March around Jericho and someone says
21:51 he's lost his mind oh no I've noticed
21:54 when you enter into Canaan land that God
21:56 sometimes does things that seem foolish
21:59 to other people because the wisdom of
22:01 this world is foolishness with God but
22:04 the wisdom of God is foolishness to this
22:06 world and so they marched around had a
22:08 prayed the second day the seventh day
22:10 they went around seven times and you
22:14 remember how God conquered the enemy and
22:16 he'll do the same thing for
22:19 you somebody here today says Pastor I am
22:22 facing a Jericho situation the like of
22:25 which Joshua never saw we have got a
22:28 financial Jericho or we have a physical
22:31 Jero irle there's something that has to
22:33 be done here there are insurmountable
22:40 problems the same Joshua who brought you
22:43 into the land can enable you to conquer
22:47 the enemy be strong and of a good
22:50 courage Don't Be Afraid lay hold of the
22:53 promises of the word of God obey what he
22:56 says and God will give you
22:59 Victory now they didn't always have
23:02 Victory when you read the book of Joshua
23:04 you discover they had some
23:07 defeats they conquered Jericho what a
23:09 tremendous victory that was then they
23:13 had to go after ai ai was just a
23:17 little village not too far away and oh
23:18 they said we can handle this we just we
23:22 just whipped Jericho and in their
23:24 overconfidence they failed they came
23:26 back with their tails between their legs
23:29 they said Joshua what's wrong
23:31 this what happens to a person he he by
23:34 faith enters into Canaan land he starts
23:36 winning some great victories then he gets
23:37 gets
23:39 overconfident well he says I've got that
23:43 alcohol problem whipped and he's down
23:47 I've got that bad habit taken care of
23:50 and he's down oh I'll never face that
23:57 overconfidence a second reason for their
24:01 defeat was hidden sin aen you'll
24:03 remember had stolen from Jericho and
24:05 buried it and his hidden sin brought
24:08 defeat as you enter into Canaan land and
24:11 you begin to win one Victory after
24:13 another watch out for hidden
24:16 sin I tell you friends it's easier to
24:19 sin in the light of Victories than it is
24:21 in the light of defeats you say well
24:23 I've won these victories I'm not doing
24:26 as bad as I used to do so I can have
24:28 this little thing or that little thing
24:34 defeat a third cause of defeat in Canaan
24:38 land was not waiting for God's guidance
24:40 boy did they fool
24:43 Joshua one day some men showed up and
24:46 their clothes were old and moth eaten
24:49 their bread was just filled with
24:51 mold and it looked as though they had
24:53 walked from the ends of the Earth they
24:55 said oh we've come from a long distance
24:58 away and we hear that you are here and
25:00 we want to become your servants and so
25:02 you make a covenant with us and they
25:04 were just a they were just a few miles
25:06 away they were the gibian ites they were fooling
25:08 fooling
25:11 Joshua and Joshua didn't take time to
25:14 pray the leaders didn't take time for
25:17 God's will they rushed ahead and then
25:18 they discovered they'd made a covenant
25:20 with their
25:23 enemies you know people do make mistakes
25:25 preachers make
25:27 mistakes sometimes we judge by
25:29 appearances and don't wait on the Lord
25:31 Church officers make mistakes sometimes
25:34 we judge by appearances and don't wait
25:37 upon the Lord you know what Joshua did
25:39 he said we've made a covenant with you
25:41 and we're not going to break our
25:48 gianitsos
25:51 youa he's a man who knew how to get his
25:54 mistakes to work for
25:56 him now when you and I can get to the
25:57 place where we can get our mistakes to
26:02 work for us God will bless us Joshua
26:05 enabled them to enter the land oh my
26:07 friend Jesus Christ will enable you to
26:09 enter into this
26:12 land The Inheritance you have in
26:16 Christ through Christ we enter the land
26:19 and through Christ we conquer the enemy
26:21 finally and most
26:24 importantly through Christ we claim the
26:26 inheritance when you read the last part
26:30 of Joshua from about Oh chapter 13 or 14
26:31 to the end of the book you know what they're
26:32 they're
26:35 doing casting lots now we don't cast lots
26:37 lots
26:39 today because this was an Old Testament
26:42 Practice basically but they were casting
26:44 lots to see where the different tribes
26:46 would get their inheritance and the
26:47 tribe leaders would come up and they'd
26:50 cast lots and God would guide in the
26:52 casting of the lots and they would draw
26:54 on the map and say this belongs to
26:56 Joseph and this belongs to Judah and
26:58 this belongs to Ephraim they were
27:01 claiming their inheritance that's why
27:04 you go in the land we go into the land
27:06 and we conquer the enemy that we might
27:11 inheritance now my friend you and I have
27:14 a tremendous inheritance in Jesus
27:17 Christ I think far too many people think
27:20 that salvation is only a fire escape
27:21 from Eternal
27:24 judgment oh I'm so glad I'm saved they
27:27 say and I can just hardly wait till
27:29 Jesus comes back they say but in the
27:32 meantime oh am I miserable and God never
27:35 meant it to be that way miserable Saints
27:38 are bad advertising for the Lord Jesus
27:42 Christ the New Testament book that
27:46 parallels Joshua is
27:49 Ephesians in Ephesians we are told about
27:52 the wonderful inheritance we have in
27:56 Christ in fact in chapter 1 of Ephesians
27:59 Paul prays like this verse
28:03 17 I pray that the god of our Lord Jesus
28:06 Christ the father of Glory may give unto
28:08 you the spirit of
28:11 wisdom and Revelation in the knowledge of
28:12 of
28:16 him the eyes of your understanding
28:20 literally the eyes of your heart being
28:23 enlightened that you may know what is
28:27 the hope of his calling and what the
28:31 riches of the glory of his
28:35 inheritance in the Saints what he's
28:38 saying here is oh that you might know
28:42 how rich you are in Christ and how rich
28:45 Christ is in you and oh that you would
28:51 inheritance during the Centennial of the
28:54 Civil War many stories were going around
28:56 about Abraham Lincoln the one that
28:59 interested me the most was about the old
29:02 soldier who used to wander from place to
29:04 place and B a bit of bread and a place
29:06 to sleep and anytime they'd be a crowd
29:08 he'd reach into his pocket and he'd pull
29:11 out his tattered old wallet and he'd
29:12 reach into this tattered old wallet and
29:14 get a piece of paper it was about ready
29:17 to fall apart and he'd say folks I want
29:19 you to know I've got Mr Lincoln's
29:22 signature and they'd look and say why
29:23 you sure
29:26 do one day a man said let me read that
29:29 paper Mr Lincoln signature happened to
29:31 be appended to a
29:33 a
29:35 pension from the United States
29:39 government for his service in the Army
29:40 and here was this man walking around
29:43 like a poverty stricken
29:44 stricken
29:47 hobo when he carried in his pocket a
29:50 signature that gave him all that he
29:53 needed now before we laugh at that man
29:54 let's look in the
29:56 mirror when you were
29:59 saved the holy the holy spirit of God
30:02 made you a part of Jesus Christ the Old
30:06 Testament Jew followed Joshua we are a
30:10 part of our Joshua where he is we are
30:15 John dares to say in his first letter as
30:20 he is so are we in this
30:23 world and we are bone of his bone and
30:26 flesh of his flesh and heartbeat of his
30:29 heartbeat he says now I want to share
30:30 with you my
30:32 inheritance I I've noticed in the book of
30:34 of
30:37 Ephesians 1: 7 he talks about the riches
30:39 of his
30:42 grace oh The Riches of his grace not
30:46 just saving grace but keeping Grace
30:49 Grace that strengthens us thou therefore
30:52 my son be strong in the grace that is in
30:55 Christ Jesus Oh you say I need Grace
30:58 it's there just claim it just come to
31:01 your heavenly Joshua and say I need
31:04 Grace The Riches of his grace I notice
31:07 in chapter 2 verse 4 The Riches of his
31:10 Mercy oh how we need
31:14 Mercy I notice in chap 3: 16 The Riches
31:17 of his glory that he would Grant you
31:20 according to the riches of his glory my
31:23 God shall supply all your need according
31:27 to his riches and Glory by Christ Jesus
31:29 why do we walk walk around like Heavenly
31:33 hobos when my father is rich in houses
31:36 and lands he holdeth the wealth of the
31:40 world in his hands rubies and diamonds
31:45 silver and gold his coffers are full he
31:48 has riches Untold and I'm a child of the
31:52 king through Jesus Christ you claim your
31:55 inheritance in fact says Paul in
31:57 Ephesians these riches are so wonderful
31:59 I can't describ them CH
32:02 3:8 unto me who am less than the least
32:05 of All Saints is this Grace given that I
32:07 should preach among the Gentiles the unsearchable
32:08 unsearchable
32:11 riches the unsearchable riches I don't
32:13 care who the richest man is in the world
32:16 his riches are nothing he has a piggy
32:20 bank compared to the riches of Christ
32:25 unsearchable and God says I want you to
32:27 go on in and claim your inheritance now
32:30 you why many Saints are
32:34 unhappy they want to Mark out their own
32:36 inheritance Lord I've got to have this
32:38 girl for my wife I've got to have this
32:40 fellow for my husband I've got to have
32:43 this job or this a home address we don't
32:46 tell the Lord this we tell him our
32:48 desires we tell him our needs there's a
32:51 beautiful statement back in Psalm
32:53 47 verse
32:57 4 the Lord shall choose our inheritance
33:01 in itance for us I like that whenever
33:02 you're watching some other Saint and you
33:04 think he's got more than you've got read
33:09 Psalm 474 the Lord shall choose our
33:12 inheritance for us let him Mark out your
33:16 inheritance and claim it through Jesus
33:18 Christ and of course with this
33:20 inheritance comes
33:22 rest we say how could they have rest
33:24 when they were fighting rest in the
33:28 Bible never means rest from labor it
33:32 means rest in labor it never means rest
33:36 from conflict as long as you are in this
33:40 flesh you will fight
33:43 battles it means Rest In
33:44 In
33:48 conflict the peace of God that passes
33:51 all understanding oh Joshua gave them
33:56 rest politically Joshua gave them rest
33:59 militarily Joshua gave them rest
34:01 economically Joshua couldn't give them
34:05 rest spiritually but Jesus does and our
34:08 Lord Jesus Christ our Heavenly Joshua
34:12 gives to us that peace that passes all
34:14 understanding so as we fight the battle
34:17 we fight the battle with peace in our
34:20 hearts as we claim The Inheritance
34:24 there's that peace of God I'm so glad
34:27 that I know my heavenly Joshua the
34:29 embarrassing thing in my life is that I
34:31 have claimed so little of what he's
34:34 purchased for me I'm like some of those
34:36 tribes who came and said where's our
34:38 inheritance and Joshua said go up and
34:41 get it Go claim it I want to be like
34:43 Caleb who came and said give me this
34:46 mountain 85 years old give me this
34:49 mountain and they said go get it and he
34:52 went and claimed his
34:54 inheritance through Jesus Christ we
34:55 enter the
34:58 land dying to self
35:02 through Jesus Christ we conquer the
35:06 enemy through Jesus Christ we claim The
35:10 Inheritance and experience that fullness of
35:11 of
35:14 life that brings glory to his name now
35:15 where are you
35:18 today what is your spiritual address
35:20 Egypt then you'd better come and give
35:23 your heart to Christ Egypt is the place
35:25 of judgment the Wilderness then you
35:28 better cross over Jordan quit murmuring
35:31 quit complaining don't have self-will
35:35 just die to self and come into the land
35:38 and enjoy the Blessed Victory and the
35:41 Blessed inheritance in
35:43 Christ gracious
35:47 father our hearts are filled overflowing
35:50 oh we have so much we live so
35:54 little forgive us we pray that today
35:58 there will be great victories in hearts
36:01 as people by faith
36:05 yield and cross over into the land of
36:07 inheritance and help that there will be
36:09 those who will flee from Egypt this day
36:12 and Trust the blood of the Lamb to save
36:16 them we pray in jesus' name and for his
