Forward by Sam Matthews
Alan Tan shares this word of challenge and strength with us. He reports that God is moving in the nation of Malaysia and that things are changing because God is releasing Himself and establishing His Kingdom. When God is moving, He does so through His people and we don't just watch Him do something, but He shows us how to be involved with Him and how our believing and obedience are so important. Be encouraged by this Word from the Lord.
****************************************************
Recently, I am challenged by the reading of 2 Chronicles 20 when King Jehoshaphat was under siege by 3 armies and he sought the Lord. The Lord told him in v 17 "… take up your position and stand firm and see the deliverance the Lord is giving you."
I feel very strongly that we are to take our positions - position of victory, position of strength, position of courage. The Apostle Paul encouraged us in Ephesians 6:13 “...having done all to
stand your ground."
In verse 11 - we are to stand against the devil's schemes...
In verse 13 - we are to stand our ground...
In verse 14 - we are to stand firm...
We are standing on the Promises of God.
We are standing on the Purpose of God.
We are standing on the Word of God,
and we will take our “positions in God” and see the deliverance of the Lord!!
I sense in my spirit that there is a call going out from the Throne of God to take up our positions!!!!
Blessings, Alan Tan
