Make prayer circles

You are the God who does wonders; You have declared Your strength among the peoples. (Psalm 77:14 NKJV)

Lately I had been feeling surrounded by high walls, both in my circumstances and in my spiritual life, that were preventing me from moving forward. It’s natural to sometimes feel overwhelmed when the physical reality of circumstances and conditions sink in.

I imagine Joshua and his followers must have felt somewhat like this as they approached the city of Jericho and saw how well fortified it was. They may have momentarily felt intimidated by its strong, towering walls. At least, this is how I would have felt if I were there with them.

But Joshua’s faith was greatly strengthened when one of God’s heavenly commanders appeared to him with a sword in his hand, just before the Israelites got to Jericho. So Joshua and the Israelites rested assured that God was at work, and they obeyed His instructions to march around the city for seven days—and seven times on the seventh day—then give a shout! Once this was done, God brought down the city walls, making it possible for Israel to go in and possess the place. (Joshua 5 and 6)

If you feel boxed in or surrounded by high walls that seem impenetrable, remember that we belong to the Waymaker Himself. Make prayer circles around our situations, and give shouts of gratitude to Him, He will bring down the walls, whatever they may be, and make a way for us to take possession of what He has in store.
