approach to
address root spiritual issues holding back Africa.
Consider how Joshua's
fighting men might have felt as they passively walked around the seemingly
invincible fortress of Jericho for six days. How futile and foolish these
challengers must have looked to the city's guards staring down at them from
walls 25 feet high and 20 feet thick.
God directed Joshua to have
his armed men walk around the city for six days behind seven priests carrying
the ark of the LORD. On the seventh day they walked around seven times before
the priests blew their horns and everyone else shouted. The walls then crashed
and the city was overrun by the Israelites.
As improbable as it sounded,
it worked because it was of the LORD who already had determined to hand the
city over to the Israelites as their first conquest upon entering the Promised
Land.
Our Rock board believes our
Jericho moment has come in following God's lead to build the Kingdom View
Fellowship and Guest House in Uganda.
We need $150,000 for Phase
One which includes purchase of land. The land may not be available after July
5. It's a tall order, but we are affirmed in God's leading and sufficiency by
the story of Jericho.
God will get all the glory for Kingdom View, just as He left no doubt the battle belonged to Him at Jericho.
