When You’ve Stayed Long Enough In One Place! Deuteronomy 1:6-8
I. Prepare to Move! 6
Exodus 19-31
• It’s Where God’s Word, Law and Instruction is Gathered!
Exodus 32:1
• It’s A Place of Grumbling, Rebellion, Idol Worship, , Betrayal and Immorality.
Exodus 33-Numbers 13

You have stayed at this place long enough! It’s Time to Leave!
II. Turn, Set Your Journey and Go To The Place God Wants You to Be! 7
III. Go Possess What God Has Promised You! 8
Possess – To seize, occupy, to take for one’s own! To Inherit and to “Utterly Succeed in Acomplishing the things God has called them to accomplish!
Trust and Do What God Says, Not What Man Might Say!
Numbers 14:1-12
How Did they Miss It?
1. Unbelief and Disobedience– Hebrews 3:8-4:1
• You Believe What God Says! When You Hear God’s Word and You Hear Man’s Word that Does not line up with God’s Word and You Choose Man’s Word over God’s Word: You Are in Trouble!
• When God says Go! You Say Yes and Go!
• You Never, say No and Stay Where You Are!
2. Fear – Deuteronomy 1:28
• You Fail to Press On to Victory.
• You Forget God Instead of Remembering God!
• You Will Fail the Tests of Life!
• You Will Fail to Press on to Greater Things With God
• You Won’t Use Your Gifts for the Glory of God!
• You Will Fail to Love Completely
• You Will Walk in a Greater Immaturity Instead of a Greater Maturity!
• You’ll Cause Your Children to Miss Out!
3. The Wrong Kind of Contentment,
God’s Promise! God’s Presence! God’s Peace! God’s Purposes! He Promises Financial Blessing, Emotional Blessing, Abundant Life, Life Change, The Fruit of the Spirit …..
Great sobering message!! Oh that I/we allow God to slay the giants and possess the land He has for each one of us!!
