You're listening to my morning devotional podcast, episode 997. Today's devot is called the road to a thousand, part two. Hey there.
00:00:10.486 --> 00:00:53.689
We're the Alessis, a ministry family working together in our church in Miami, Florida. And if you're like us, when days get busy and to do lists get longer, it can be hard to find devotional time. That's why we've partnered with our friend Allison to produce a five minute daily dose of heaven. This is the my morning Devotional podcast. Good morning, everybody. Happy Tuesday. This is a very special week as we are leading to our 1000 episode on Friday, but also because for the entire week we have a very special guest, Allison. She's going to be joining us and we're just excited just to hear from her as I am pretty sure you guys have missed her, but she's back with us and it's going to be an amazing week.
00:00:53.722 --> 00:01:04.656
How you doing, Allison? Hey, guys, I'm good. How are you? Good. Well, happy Tuesday. I'm so glad that you guys kept that the happy Monday, happy Tuesday, happy Wednesday. We have a shirt that actually says happy Monday.
00:01:04.719 --> 00:01:52.902
I need to give the link to you guys so we can start. We'll pick up on our merchandise where we kind of left off. But today we're going to continue that theme around 1000 since we are celebrating 1000 episodes on Friday. And so today we're going to be in Joshua, chapter 23, verses eight through ten. It says, but you shall cling to the Lord your God, just as you have done this day. For the Lord has driven out before you a great and strong nation. And as for you, no man has been able to stand before you to this day. One man of you puts a flight of a thousand since it is the Lord your God, who fights for you, just as he promised you. And today is part two of this road to a thousand. And what we really wanted to talk about today is the idea of clinging to the Lord in your faith.
00:01:53.058 --> 00:01:56.549
The idea that time like we've been talking about will pass.
00:01:56.701 --> 00:03:16.991
But just imagine what your life can look like four years from now if you cling on to your faith today. Yes, and you can take this podcast daily to continue to sharpen you, but you can continue to go to your churches, your local churches, get involved, serve and see what God does in your life through time. Yeah, because things will happen and come against you, as always. But it's really the lens that you put on to look at when things happen towards you, who's really standing in your way. And the reality is no one's standing your way. We know that God is going to fight for you, and this is continuing to strengthen that faith in you. So whatever you're looking at today, whatever you want to do, whatever season of life that you're in, imagine what your life can look like four years from now, a thousand episodes from now, if you cling on to your faith today. So I know that even this show, for instance, it's been hard to produce. This is a daily show, and I remember having to produce them either really late at night or really early in the morning. But I was determined to never miss a day. And even to now, when you guys take this over or when you took this over, it's been a challenge to coordinate schedules to make sure that we're all in the same room and we're all gonna be together for the Friday's episode.
00:03:17.127 --> 00:03:46.051
But that takes challenge, and that's because there are. There is a very real enemy that wants to knock you off your path. But if you remember that nothing can harm you, God fights for you. And if you cling on to your faith, just be ready for God to do something incredibly special in your life over time. Yes, we're celebrating a thousand episodes. That's the commitment to doing something for a thousand times. Yes.
00:03:46.147 --> 00:03:53.692
So take that into your own life, apply it, and be faithful to something a thousand times and see what God can do in you. Yes.
00:03:53.747 --> 00:04:04.867
I love that. Well, thank you for sharing that, Alison. I really believe that it's gonna bless many today to just cling to God and just choose him, no matter what. Cause he's fighting for them.
00:04:04.955 --> 00:04:19.548
Yeah. Can you lead us into prayer? Of course, Father. God, we thank you, Lord, for this Tuesday. God, we thank you that your word continues to. To strengthen our faith, that we cling on to you with everything. We understand that nothing can harm us, nothing can come up against us. You have us.
00:04:19.596 --> 00:04:33.732
You fight on our behalf. And so, lord, we hold on to that. We hold onto our faith, and we cling on to you for the next thousand episodes, for the next four years, let's imagine what our life can look like if we continue to keep you centered in our life. We thank you for that.
00:04:33.788 --> 00:04:37.446
We pray this in your son's mighty name today and every day. Amen.
00:04:37.540 --> 00:04:59.434
Amen. So there you have it. Your five minute daily dose of heaven. Thank you so much for tuning in today. We pray these devotionals empower you to take on your day. If you found value in this devotional, share it with a friend, leave a comment or review for us on the app you're using right now. Until tomorrow, we pray that your latte is strong, but your love for Jesus is stronger.
