The Hornet

1997 and we moved out here in 1998. As I studied in preparation since I didn’t have any sermons to prepare. I studied my favorite character in the Bible: Joshua, and I came across this passage. It stuck out at me in bold print. Over the years I have had to remind me that God will open Las Vegas to us “LITTLE BY LITTLE” until we, as a church, are ready to handle it. I wanted a THOUSAND people in the first year but God knew we couldn’t handle it. I wanted to plant 20 new churches here but God knew Vegas wasn’t ready. “LITTLE BY LITTLE” he is opening up the land for us.

What is God saying to YOU in this passage?

Are you in the desert right now hoping, wishing, wanting the promised land?

Is he telling YOU to be patient because the land is not ready for you yet?

Is he telling YOU to be patient because you are not ready for the land yet?

Is God moving slower than you would like opening up to you LITTLE BY LITTLE?

Is God PROTECTING you by revealing LITTLE BY LITTLE?

What is God preparing YOU for right now?

Are you really, truly ready for the promise?

If you are really, truly ready than start watching for the green road signs telling you it is getting closer and closer – LITTLE BY LITTLE
