Bootcamp Series #10 “Debut”

Series: “Preparing To Posses The Promises” Sermon #9 “Debut”

Are there things we can do NOW to prepare for what’s NEXT.

Debut:— First expression of our promise taking FAITH!!!

PICTURE OF JERICHO:
Jericho the oldest continuously inhabited city in the world. The retaining wall was some 12–15 ft high. Then a mud brick wall 6 ft thick and about 20– 26 ft high. At the crest a similar mud brick wall whose base was roughly 46 ft above the ground level. An impossibility for Israel.

Hebrews 11:30
“By faith the walls of Jericho fell, after the people had marched around them for seven days”

Hebrews 11:1 (NET)
“Now faith is being sure of what we hope for, being convinced of what we do not see.”

Joshua prepares the people: Passover and Circumcision
Joshua Has and encounter with God: He is challenged to see through the eyes of faith.

“ See” (râw-âw):— to envision something: to see far beyond the physical realm of present reality to see as it can, and will be.

African Impala can jump 10’ high and 30’ distance and yet can be held by a 3 foot fence. Won’t jump unless the landing is clear.

Matthew 4:4 (Message)
“It takes more than bread to stay alive. It takes a steady stream of words from God’s mouth.”
Public victories flow out of the practice of private visitation.

Joshua 6:3-5
“You shall march around (circles) the city, all you men of war; you shall go all around the city once. This you shall do six days. And seven priests shall bear seven trumpets of rams’ horns before the ark. But the seventh day (Sabbath) you shall march around the city seven times, and the priests shall blow the trumpets. It shall come to pass, when they make a long blast with the ram’s horn, and when you hear the sound of the trumpet, that all the people shall shout with a great shout; then the wall of the city will fall down flat. And the people shall go up every man straight before him.”

Joshua 6:10
“You shall not shout or make any noise with your voice, nor shall a word proceed out of your mouth, until the day I say to you, ‘Shout!’ Then you shall shout.”

We have to eliminate negative talk.
Hebrews 10:23 “Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful.”

Numbers 10:1, 9
“Make two silver trumpets for yourself; you shall make them of hammered work; you shall use them for calling the congregation and for directing the movement of the camps.”

“When you go to war in your land against the enemy who oppresses you, then you shall sound an alarm with the trumpets, and you will be remembered before the Lord your God, and you will be saved from your enemies.”

Leviticus 25:9-10
“Then you shall cause the trumpet (sho-far’) of the Jubilee to sound … consecrate the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout all the land…”

Colossians 2:15
“Having disarmed principalities and powers, He made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them in it.”

2 Corinthians 2:14
“Now thanks be to God who always leads us in triumph in Christ, and through us diffuses the fragrance of His knowledge in every place.”

Hebrews 4:1
“Therefore, since a promise remains of entering His rest, let us fear lest any of you seem to have come short of it. … ”

Hebrews 4:4
“For He has spoken in a certain place of the seventh day in this way: ‘And God rested on the seventh day from all His works’”

You don’t achieve victory you receive victory.
HIS REST:— I enter into the finished work of the cross. All the promises are YES in Christ and we say AMEN!!!

Ephesians 2:5-6
“…made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus,”

Joshua 6:20
“So the people shouted when the priests blew the trumpets. And it happened when the people heard the sound of the trumpet, and the people shouted with a great shout, that the wall fell down flat. Then the people went up into the city, every man straight before him, and they took the city.”

PICTURE OF AN IMPOSSIBLE WALL: Shout … The stones come tumbling down.

Prayer is receiving the victory. Worship is celebrating the victory!!!
