DEUTERONOMY 3
The Ever-Faithful God Gives Victory to His People
SCRIPTURE
1 Next we turned and went up along the road toward Bashan, and Og king of Bashan with his whole army marched out to meet us in battle at Edrei.
2 The Lord said to me, “Do not be afraid of him, for I have delivered him into your hands, along with his whole army and his land. Do to him what you did to Sihon king of the Amorites, who reigned in Heshbon.
3 So the Lord our God also gave into our hands Og king of Bashan and all his army. We struck them down, leaving no survivors.
4 At that time we took all his cities. There was not one of the sixty cities that we did not take from them-the whole region of Argob, Og’s kingdom in Bashan.
5 All these cities were fortified with high walls and with gates and bars, and there were also a great many unwalled villages.
6 We completely destroyed them, as we had done with Sihon king of Heshbon, destroying every city—men, women, and children.
OBSERVATION
When the time of the fulfillment of God’s promises has come to fruition, it is exactly the time… to harvest. To have victory. Though Israel went around for forty years in the wilderness, when God permitted them to enter the Promised Land, God has to do everything to make His people victorious. He will destroy whoever will go against His will and against His people. He will even go with His people and help them conquer and never allow His people to be defeated. God is really Faithful.
APPLICATION
As I was reading this chapter, I remember the Project Macedonia Strategy that Rev. Domeng Rivera mentioned in SLOP Meeting. It is all about Conquering 10% of the community every year for 5 years, making it 50% of the community to be brought to the Lord and their lives be transformed.
In the verses above, they conquered all the 60 cities under King Og of Bashan. Though, the context is destroying completely the cities and all men, women, and children (v4; 6)… this is because God is giving the Promised Land and He did not want His people to co-inhabit the enemies. Likewise, God will do the same in our days. He will help us conquer the land and the people for Christ. All we have to do is listen to God (v.2 “Do not be afraid…) and follow His commands like in Matthew 28:19, “Go and make disciples of all nations.”. Not some but ALL…
PRAYER:
Father God in Heaven, we believe it is Your Kairos time to redeem and conquer the whole world and all the peoples before the Lord Jesus Christ comes back again. Help us to do our part in winning people and places. Let signs, wonders, and miracles accompany our sharing of the Word. Allow victory and Your presence to be felt and experienced by the people, in Jesus’ name, Amen.
DECLARATIONS:
We declare that Jesus Is Lord over the life (the name of every family member).
We declare that the blood of Jesus covers (the name of every family member).
