0:39 Gifta International. Welcome to Fuel for the Soul with John Gifta. Yes,

0:55 where you're saying, yes, we all want to step into the fullness of

1:00 our destiny. We want to seek God take us to our promised land.

1:03 We want to experience the fullness of the promises of God. Maybe the dreams

1:07 that desires, the visions, everything that God placed in you so that you

1:11 will work in the ultimate calling that He has for you. You may be

1:15 saying, why isn't God taking me into my promised land. I'm ready,

1:19 I have the faith for it, I'm willing to get into it. And

1:22 all of those things may be true, but I want to ask you this

1:25 question. Yes, as much as you want to get into the Promised Land,

1:27 as much as you have the faith with the fact that yes, God

1:32 can take you through the Promised Land, my question is are you really ready

1:34 to be in the Promised Land? Are you ready to survive? Or will

1:40 you be able to survive in the Promised Land if God placed you in the

1:42 Promised Land. I want to share a scripture with you and I want to

1:47 take this forward, and it is found in Joshua chapter five was twelve.

1:51 You know, this is a scripture that always comes to my mind where every

1:53 time I ask the Lord Lord, why am I still not seeing the fullness

1:57 of my destiny? Why am I not seeing new levels or new seasons that

2:01 I've been expreding on the Lord for? Why are you taking me step by

2:06 stepan? He always reminds me of the scripture. And I want to take

2:08 this forward by sharing this with you. And this is what it says.

2:12 The manna stopped the day after they ate this food from the land, there

2:16 was no longer any manna for the Israelites. But that year they ate the

2:22 produce of cannon. It says that the manna stopped appearing if you look at

2:30 the nultivation, it says no manner appeared on the day they first ate from

2:35 the crops of the land. What I wanted you to understand, year is

2:38 this thing. So long they were accustomed to receiving the manna. They were

2:43 accustomed where they didn't have to prepare anything, you know, everything was like

2:46 already made a manna available for them. But Year was a moment where the

2:53 manna ceased and they had to prepare the produce. They had to be able

3:00 to learn cultivation. Like if they get into the promised land, they're not

3:05 going to get man now, they're not going to get you know, quails

3:07 just falling into their tent. This was a moment when they have to learn

3:10 agriculture or horticulture or every other culture. How they you know, they are

3:15 how to you know, take care of the animals so that they will get

3:19 meat and everything. So they have to learn to produce their own food.

3:28 Right. That's just an example here that I'm trying to take you through to

3:30 let you know that, you know, so long, when you're moving towards

3:34 your promised land, you know you're learning things. God is taking you through

3:38 those tests and through those trials through those you know, you know, like

3:43 the wilderness experiences, where you learn the strategies, you learn the cultures,

3:47 you learn the best habits, you learn the stuff so that when you step

3:52 into your promised land, you are ready to handle the weight of the promised

3:55 land. Today you may be in a place you're saying, why isn't are

4:00 taking me through my promised land? Maybe just maybe you're not ready for it.

4:04 Maybe you're so dependent on manna. But now is your moment to say,

4:09 God, you know what, teach me to be independent of manna,

4:13 so that I will be ready to produce, so that I will learn,

4:16 so that I will grow, so that I will take new levels, new

4:20 seasons. And then when you show God that you're ready, guess what,

4:27 You're going to enter your promised land. You're going to enter your promised land.

4:31 Some of you are so dependent on the old system. You're so dependent

4:36 on what is comfortable. You're so dependent on what worked in the past,

4:42 and that's why you're not willing to move forward. But if you would only

4:46 come to that place where you are willing to grow, learn, mature,

4:51 and be ready for whatever it takes for you to handle the weight of the

5:00 promised Land. I want you, guys to understand your promised Land is on

5:04 the way. Promised Land is about to appear today. I pray in the

5:11 name of Jesus Christ that every single person listening will expedience this in their life.

5:17 Will be taught by the Lord on the arias. They need to learn,

5:21 the arias, they need to grow, the arias they need to develop

5:25 and mature so that they will be ready to step into their promised Land.

5:30 In the name of Jesus, I pray, Amen, God bless you.
