Today’s Reading:
Deuteronomy 11
Malachi 4
Psalm 107
For the land, into which you are entering to possess it, is not like the land of Egypt from which you came, where you used to sow your seed and water it with your foot like a vegetable garden. But the land into which you are about to cross to possess it, a land of hills and valleys, drinks water from the rain of heaven, a land for which the Lord your God cares; the eyes of the Lord your God are always on it, from the beginning even to the end of the year. “It shall come about, if you listen obediently to my commandments which I am commanding you today, to love the Lord your God and to serve Him with all your heart and all your soul, that He will give the rain for your land in its season, the early and late rain, that you may gather in your grain and your new wine and your oil. He will give grass in your fields for your cattle, and you will eat and be satisfied.
Deuteronomy 11:10-15 NASB1995
I heard the Spirit of the Living God say,
This is the crossing over. This is the Promised Land. This is the place where the fields are lucious and the gardens are tended by the eyes of the Lord who waters them year round. Where you once had to water your garden by foot in Egypt, you are now in a place of great fruitfulness with much less effort, because of the sunlight and the springs and the rainfall of My favor.
“But for you who stand in awe at the sound of my name, a new dawn is coming. For the sun of righteousness will rise with healing radiating from its wings. And you will be free and leap for joy like calves released from the stall. In the day that I, Yahweh, Commander of Angel Armies, am preparing, you will overcome and trample down the wicked like they were ashes under your feet.” “Remember the law of my servant Moses, the commands and instructions I gave him at Mount Sinai for all Israel to obey.”
Malachi 4:2-4 TPT
You will skip like a calf loosed from the stall. You will delight in this newfound freedom and the newfound changes of your circumstance, even the changes of conditions in the atmosphere. Change is here. It is in your midst. It’s not coming — although there will be more. You have crossed over. This is the day of the Lord’s favor. This is the field and the garden I have gone at head and prepared for you. Trust Me that the other shoe is not going to drop. Trust Me that things really are this good. When you walk into your dream come true, you can rub your eyes. But believe that it is all for you. I did it all for you. I set it all up and established this place, a suitable city in which to dwell, for you.
Some of us once wandered in the wilderness like desert nomads, with no true direction or dwelling place. Starving, thirsting, staggering, we became desperate and filled with despair. Then we cried out, “Lord, help us! Rescue us!” And he did! He led us out by the right way until we reached a suitable city to dwell in.
Psalms 107:4-7 TPT
Favor is here. Recompense is here. Fruitfulness and a time of great reward is here. Watch as I pour out My favor and My refreshing so generously upon you that you will not recognize your life any longer. This is grace. This is favor. This is repayment, and this is what winning feels like. This is the posture of the victorious one. Expect to win more, because more fights are ahead. But the victories are assured when you remain in Me. Great is My faithfulness. No promise of Mine ever falls short. This is the day of a great salvation.
How to Respond
- Worship the Lord. And expect to see His goodness.
- Pray, Holy Spirit thank You for who You are. Thank You for Your great faithfulness. Thank You for going before me and for preparing a place of establishment, fruitfulness, favor and victory. Help me to prosper in this new place, and help me to quickly adapt to the extreme favor of these new circumstances that You are opening up to me. Help me to stay close to You and obedient to Your voice, so I can remain assured of every victory.
- Declare, So lift your hands and thank God for his marvelous kindness and for all his miracles of mercy for those he loves. How he satisfies the souls of thirsty ones and fills the hungry with goodness!
Psalms 107:8-9 TPT - Decree, The crossing over has happened, and I am now in a time of victory, prosperity, favor, recompense and repayment.
- Sing, The enemy has been defeated, death couldn’t hold You down. I’m gonna lift my voice in victory, I’m gonna sing Your praises loud. Shout unto to God with a voice of triumph. Shout unto to God with a voice of praise. (Click here for the song by Hillsong United)
