GO FORWARD CONFERENCE|| DEC 2024| DAY 12 (part b) | RISE YE UP AND EMBRACE GOD'S COMMAND | CHIMDI OHAHUNA

Welcome to continuing exploration of Deuteronomy 2:24, where God commands, "Rise ye up, take your journey, and pass over the river Arnon. Behold, I have given into thine hand Sihon the Amorite, king of Heshbon, and his land: begin to possess it, and contend with him in battle." This episode delves deep into the meaning and significance of the phrase "rise ye up" and how this divine command resonates with us as Christians today.

Teaching Key Points:

1. Understanding "Rise Ye Up":

- This is a clarion call from the Lord, urging the children of Israel to rise from their state of rest or inactivity. It's a powerful reminder that God often calls us, as believers, to action, both physically and mentally.

2. The Five Moves of God:

- We are currently in the fourth move of God, heralding the fifth. This episode discusses the significance of these moves and how our actions today are crucial in God's grand design.

3. The Dangers of Spiritual Complacency:

- God doesn't want us to sit at ease in Zion. Delays in our spiritual journey are often due to our lack of understanding or premature actions. We explore the importance of seeking full information from the Lord through the prayer of inquiry.

4. Lessons from Biblical Figures:

- Learn from the stories of Rebecca and Hannah. Their experiences teach us the value of understanding God's plans before acting and the importance of praying correctly.

5. The Call to Arise and Shine:

- Everyone is attracted to light, and as Christians, we are called to rise and reveal the light of Christ. Discover the meaning of the Hebrew word for “rise ye up” which translates to "arise" or "stand up," and how it applies to our lives today.

6. Your Scene is Important:

- In the grand movie of reconciling men to God, your role is crucial. God has placed you on this earth for a purpose. It's time to stop packaging Christ and start revealing Him in all His glory.

Join us as we unpack these themes, urging every believer to heed God's call to "rise ye up" and fulfill their divine destiny. Tune in to gain insights and inspiration for your spiritual journey.

Grace to you!

Jesus is Lord.
