It takes bravery to enter the Promised Land, our inheritance, because of Jesus Christ our Lord. Have no doubts that the Holy Spirit draws a person to our Savior, and no amount of coaxing will suffice because it is the job of God to call them to him. A prime example is the spies Moses sent into the land that God had promised Abraham; out of the twelve, one ruler or leader from each tribe, only two brought back a good report. The others were afraid of conquering the inhabitants of that land. They had all seen the miracles God did when leaving Egypt and were fed by manna every morning; why did they doubt God? Many people are like these cowards, afraid to leave their sins behind, looking at them like giants, and wanting to continue diddling with demons rather than accepting what God promised them in Jesus. I have no doubt that Christ-followers are the bravest of all people. “The righteous are bold as a lion. Difficulties that lie in the way of salvation dwindle and vanish before a lively active faith in the power and promise of God. All things are possible, if they be but promised, to him that believes.” Matthew Henry.
What is stopping you from accepting all God has to offer? Do you love the lifestyle of this world? Then, this world is the best you’ll get because a world of turmoil awaits those who are not saved. Be brave and enter the Promised Land. Jesus is the only way.
And Caleb stilled the people before Moses, and said, Let us go up at once, and possess it; for we are well able to overcome it. Numbers 13:30
