God speaks today Monday | May 6, 2024

And it came to pass, when Joshua had spoken unto the people, that the seven priests bearing the seven trumpets of rams' horns passed on before the LORD, and blew with the trumpets: and the ark of the covenant of the LORD followed them. (Joshua 6:8)
By faith the walls of Jericho fell down, after they were compassed about seven days. (Hebrews 11:30)
Faustino de Jesús Zamora Vargas

Tactic and strategy

God's methods and strategies are infallible and cannot be understood by human understanding. The city of Jericho was conquered by Joshua by following God's instructions to the letter. The city was given over to depravity and disobedience, but a remnant was saved, including Rahab who became part of Jesus' genealogy. Sin has dire consequences, but God never tires of calling us to repentance and salvation. Christ established his church to be an instrument of salvation and to work where he is working. We should blow the Shofar, the trumpet, and praise the Lord to see the walls of iniquity fall. Read more...

Franklin Garrido: I am in a very difficult situation, tests after tests, my family, my house, my children, my marriage, we are in a process that I do not see the end of, I cannot get out of one, when two more come, I pray to my Almighty God and I see that he helps, but that help is to calm the situation for a moment, for one day, another day passes and more problems come, so on it is day after day, I do not want to throw away what I have gained by my faith and by seeking God, I need God to tell me what he wants from me, because I am getting weaker every day, both physically and mentally, I wish that God could tell me about this process I am in.
Franklin, I understand that you are going through a very difficult time and full of trials that seem to never stop. It is in these moments of challenge that our faith is put to the test, but as Faustino de Jesús Zamora Vargas mentions, God has unusual tactics and divine strategies that we often fail to understand. It is important to remember that God is with you in the midst of your difficulties, even if you feel that the trials are constant. I invite you to remember the words of Hebrews 11:30: "By faith the walls of Jericho fell, after being surrounded for seven days." Although the trials are persistent, faith in God can break down any obstacle. Continue to trust in His power and His unconditional love. Pray sincerely and seek His will in prayer and in His Word. Remember that He has a purpose for your life and in His time and in His way, He will give you the strength and direction you need. Stand firm in your faith, seek comfort in God's presence, and allow His peace that surpasses all understanding to fill your heart. May the strength of God be your support in the midst of adversity. I will be in prayer for you, Franklin. You are not alone in this fight! God will sustain you and guide you! 🙏🕊️
