Bishop Jakes

From Evernote:

Bishop Jakes

They took the city - the first city was Gods.
Then there was one brother - always one- who took the golden garment.
That didn't stop the fall of Jericho but the next time they went o battle... They were beat.
Joshua's response to defeat: he threw a fit. That is the appropriate response to defeat by a faith person because with people do not expect defeat!
Ordinary becomes extraordinary when you come into agreement.
Sometimes you have to move obstacles out of your way in order to get what God has promised you.
So Joshua had a fit and once it was over God told him to get up. One of you failed to come into agreement. Because one of you messed up you got the blessing but you missed the corporate blessing bc you failed to come into agreement.
Without agreement you may survive but  you miss out on the blessing. Get out of survival mode!

Joshua examined each tribe, family to find out who stole God's stuff.
You never tear up your history to get your destiny.
You can't say you ate prospering if you're stealing.
In the 8th book of Joshua, they go back to fight he battle that they lost. Do not go around it, do not cover it- demand victory. Go back to the site of your defeat and demand victory.
The power is not in the money, it's in the strategy.  If you get the strategy, the money will come. God will always send the resources to undergird the strategy.
The work is not in the performance- it's in the strategy. If you get there without a strategy, you won't be able to handle what God had for you. My people perish for the lack of a plan.

The power is in agreement.
Your Judas is always at your table.
