Tomorrow
Tomorrow
There is no subject that brings more mystery than tomorrow.
Jesus spoke about tomorrow
34 Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.
James spoke about tomorrow
13 Go to now, ye that say, To day or to morrow we will go into such a city, and continue there a year, and buy and sell, and get gain:
14 Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.
Yet tomorrow seems to be filled with both problems and Possibilities.
What does it take to face the tomorrows God has for us?
11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.
Jeremiah speaks of a future, a day beyond today..a Tomorrow
5 And Joshua said unto the people, Sanctify yourselves: for to morrow the Lord will do wonders among you.
6 And Joshua spake unto the priests, saying, Take up the ark of the covenant, and pass over before the people. And they took up the ark of the covenant, and went before the people.
7 And the Lord said unto Joshua, This day will I begin to magnify thee in the sight of all Israel, that they may know that, as I was with Moses, so I will be with thee.
1 Now Jericho was straitly shut up because of the children of Israel: none went out, and none came in.
2 And the Lord said unto Joshua, See, I have given into thine hand Jericho, and the king thereof, and the mighty men of valour.
6 And Joshua the son of Nun called the priests, and said unto them, Take up the ark of the covenant, and let seven priests bear seven trumpets of rams’ horns before the ark of the Lord.
16 And it came to pass at the seventh time, when the priests blew with the trumpets, Joshua said unto the people, Shout; for the Lord hath given you the city.
20 So the people shouted when the priests blew with the trumpets: and it came to pass, when the people heard the sound of the trumpet, and the people shouted with a great shout, that the wall fell down flat, so that the people went up into the city, every man straight before him, and they took the city.

5 And Joshua said unto the people, Sanctify yourselves: for to morrow the Lord will do wonders among you.
Tomorrow
Tomorrow

What a great word
It was a word of Faith
But what God was going to do required special preparation.
All For Tomorrow
Multiple Declarations
By Joshua
++By The Lord
7 And the Lord said unto Joshua, This day will I begin to magnify thee in the sight of all Israel, that they may know that, as I was with Moses, so I will be with thee.
This Day I will
++Begin something
++Magnify you
The People will
++See you differently
++Know I am with you
++See my signature on you
It is important for you to know your relationship with God.
But God wants others to see that he is at work in you.
Multiple Declarations
By Joshua
By The Lord
++By The People
1 Now Jericho was straitly shut up because of the children of Israel: none went out, and none came in.
The People Declared
++We are closing our Doors
++No one is coming in
++No one is going out
++All because of you
Have you ever felt unwanted, Undesired for an unspoken Reason?
I just don’t like you.. I don’t know why… I just don’t
With all the declarations God was at work.
God is not hindered
++By what men say
++By obstacles in our Way
++He is God
2 And the Lord said unto Joshua, See, I have given into thine hand Jericho, and the king thereof, and the mighty men of valour.
God’s Plan requires us to see differently.
Do you See it?
++You mean the city, _No_
++You mean the wall,_No_
++You Mean the Army _No_
When We see the obstacles He sees Destiny
When We see the obstacles He sees Destiny
Our Future is
++Not in the Hands of fate
++Not in the Mind of reason
++Is in what is given by God
2 And the Lord said unto Joshua, See, I have given into thine hand Jericho, and the king thereof, and the mighty men of valour.
The Children of Israel
++Were caught in the middle
++Between History and Destiny
5 And Joshua said unto the people, Sanctify yourselves: for to morrow the Lord will do wonders among you.
Get yourselves ready
++To morrow is coming
++You will see the Lord differently
You have hear the testimony of the Lord- How he brought deliverance to your parents form Egypt
Egyptian Might
++Enslaved them
++Normalized Oppression
++Marked them
God Delivered Them
God Delivered Them
A New destiny if on the rise
++Not connected to Oppression
++Not link to Egypt
++Tomorrow is Coming
The Lord will work Wonders For you
To embrace your Destiny
++Overcome the past
++Prepare in the present
++Tomorrow is coming
6 And Joshua the son of Nun called the priests, and said unto them, Take up the ark of the covenant, and let seven priests bear seven trumpets of rams’ horns before the ark of the Lord.
11 So the ark of the Lord compassed the city, going about it once: and they came into the camp, and lodged in the camp.
Simple Obedience
++Unknown plan
++Unreasonable plan
14 And the second day they compassed the city once, and returned into the camp: so they did six days.
Consistent Obedience
++Do it again
++Six days
15 And it came to pass on the seventh day, that they rose early about the dawning of the day, and compassed the city after the same manner seven times: only on that day they compassed the city seven times.
Complete Obedience
++They Kept Stepping
++They Relieve on God
++They never gave up
16 And it came to pass at the seventh time, when the priests blew with the trumpets, Joshua said unto the people, Shout; for the Lord hath given you the city.
20 So the people shouted when the priests blew with the trumpets: and it came to pass, when the people heard the sound of the trumpet, and the people shouted with a great shout, that the wall fell down flat, so that the people went up into the city, every man straight before him, and they took the city.
13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.
It seemed it took more than a week for them to get the victory
But God told Joshua that his work would be done tomorrow.
What was that work?
6 Be strong and of a good courage: for unto this people shalt thou divide for an inheritance the land, which I sware unto their fathers to give them.
Joshua found His Strength
Found His Courage
For he dared to believe Today
The Hope for the next Generation is not in what will be Tomorrow.
Hope is in whether we will believe Today.
We are in preparation.
5 And Joshua said unto the people, Sanctify yourselves: for to morrow the Lord will do wonders among you.
