14, 2019 – “Canaan lay
before Israel and God had told them to go over and possess it but they
hesitated even though they knew it was a land flowing with “milk and honey.”
Why were they reluctant? There was fruit over there but they also knew that to
possess it they had a foe to fight! There is a connection between the fight,
the foe, and the fruit! You can’t have the one without the other. Have you
crossed over or are you still in the wilderness? Most of us have the same
problems as they did. They looked outward (giants in the land.) They looked
inward (we are as grasshoppers.) Instead they should have looked upward, (the
God!)” S. E. Trail
My prayer for you today is that the
prospect of a “fight” won’t keep you from reaching for the “fruit!”

Ecclesiastes Remember now thy Creator in the days of thy youth, while the evil days
come not, nor the years draw nigh, when thou shalt say, I have no pleasure in
them; KJV
“There was a
scientist who was studying frogs. The scientist told the frog to jump, so the
frog jumped, and he jumped 4 feet. So the scientist wrote in his notebook: a
frog with 4 feet jumps 4 feet. The scientist then cut of one leg. He told the
frog to jump, so the frog jumped. He jumped 3 feet. So the scientist wrote in
his notebook: a frog with 3 feet jumps 3 feet. The scientist then cut off one
more leg. He told the frog to jump, so the frog jumped. He jumped 2 feet. So
the scientist wrote in his notebook: a frog with 2 feet jumps 2 feet. The
scientist cut off one more leg. He told the frog to jump, so the frog jumped.
He jumped 1 foot. So the scientist wrote in his notebook: a frog with 1 foot
jumps 1 foot. The scientist cut off the last leg. He told the frog jump, Jump,
JUMP! But the frog did not move. So the scientist wrote in his notebook: a frog
with no legs goes deaf.” Christiansunite.com
