Our Lovely Bijoux aka Cherub aka child of the most high God has given a great summary of what we covered in Fridays TERC meeting. What I’ve summarised below is in its entirety similar to her write up, but I wanted to focus on – if we followed a negative report - we still have the hope of staying on track to our vision, purpose or plan.

1. We need to follow instructions
2. Possess the promise – read His will, please God in our wait
3. Not to listen to negative report, as it will make us continue in circles, and so we need to stop doing this. And believe me when I say this, the report of whom we listened to will be there to blame us, condemn us, ridicule us, make us out to be fouls and then abandon us. We didn’t need to listen to them! will be what they will constantly remind us of.
4. But God is faithful and merciful, He will always give us another chance – Like He did to all who have gone before us.
5. But we need to remember this, that He never changes and is no respecter of persons. And if God can save David – a lair, rapist and murderer – by giving him undeserved chances, He would do it for us too whenever we fall short.
6. So for us to be successful in our walk with God, we need to:
1. Read the Word of God
2. Quote it
3. Think it
4. Obey it
5. Do it, then we will have good success – Joshua 1 – 10.
7. We also need to do a self examination, circumcising our hearts, taking communion and knowing our history i.e. our mistakes, so we learn from them and not repeat them.
8. So Even though God will forgive our disbelief and give us a fresh start, we still need to cross over to our blessings from God. That is, we need to make our mind up to cross our Jordan.
9. Then lay hold of the promises. So let us list our promises and dig deep for our treasures. When God brings us into our promises, let us do well in it. Make sure not to touch what belongs to Him – the things He has devoted to Himself, First born, Tithe – as disobedience will bring about catastrophic changes in our life.
10. Therefore let us make sure before we make our move into our promises / purpose to consult God, and acknowledging Him in our ways.

Therefore my friends let us begin to expect great and mighty miracles from God. And as we wait, let us not link ourselves with the wrong people; not to be unequally yoked. Be careful not to be tricked by them into fighting battles that isn’t your’s to fight. So I charge you guys, do not fear, even if you’ve made bad decisions and found yourself in a bit of bother, do not despair for God will fight your battles. Put the Word of God in your life and it will be difficult for you to be defeated. Read also Psalm 109 to show you what God can do to your enemies on your behalf.

I hope this has been a blessing.
