Your "land of milk and honey"

In Numbers ch. 13-15 we learn about the land of milk and honey (Canaan) and the promise that God made to give it to the Hebrew people.  They saw "giants in the land", gave in to fear, lost their faith, and forgot the many miracles that God had performed just for them.  They angered God and lost their blessing.
     Has God promised you "a land of milk and honey", but you became afraid to believe because there are "giants in the land"?  ( nasty, mean, deceitful, backbiting people in your way at work, or obstacles that seem too big to overcome).  Have faith people of God.  He doesn't break his promises.  You are already victorious because you belong to the Lord God almighty. He is giving you the means to totally defeat your enemies. Don't worry,  fret, complain, or get angry.  Don't forget the many miracles that He has performed just for you.  He has prepared a table before you in the presence of your enemies today.  Praise and worship Him so that He can see your faith.  The victory is yours!  Don't wait till the battle's over, SHOUT FOR JOY NOW!

Peace in the palm of your hand

Father we adore you!  You are our strength and our redeemer. You are our banner and our shield.  In you we have our being.  In you we find our hope. Your grace and mercy carry us.  Your words give us peace.  We know that our victory is sure because we March  triumphantly with you. We are given the ability to do all things through you oh King, and no weapons formed against us will succeed in their mission and not one word raised against us will have any influence.  This is our inheritance because we are your son's and daughters.  You are our vindication and our strong tower.  Father, we adore you.  Keep us in the center of the palm of your righteous right hand for there we find peace.
