Joshua and Ai for Today

Rise up and sanctify yourself. You are holding onto and coveting things that are not of God and are cursed. They are impeding intimacy between you and the Lord and are preventing the blessings and protection that He promised from being realized. You will not be able to walk in His fullness until you cast aside all that is defiled and set your self apart for His holy purpose.
Yesterday you stood before your enemies and they were as giants; they mocked you and pursued you and drove you into the desert, where you were alone and vulnerable.
Repent and sanctify yourself for the Lord; for tomorrow He will be your banner and strong tower. The same enemies who chased you yesterday will now tremble and flee before you.

“Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged. Take the whole army with you, and go up and attack Ai. For I have delivered into your hands the king of Ai, his people, his city and his land.” – Joshua 8:1
