The Commander of the LORD’s Army. Josh 5 (KJV): “13Now when Joshua was near Jericho, he looked up & saw a man standing in front of him with a drawn sword in His hand. Joshua approached Him & asked, “Are You for us or for our enemies?”14“Neither,” He replied. “I have now come as Commander of the LORD’s army.” Then Joshua fell facedown in reverence & asked Him, “What does my Lord have to say to His servant?” 15The Commander of the LORD’s army replied, “Take off your sandals, for the place where you are standing is holy.”And Joshua did so.” —This is an interesting statement, don’t you think? What message can we take from the fact that the Angel of the Lord said He was not on Joshua’s side exclusively? DONT TAKE SIDES! When you pray – pray that Gods will is done across this world and that He works His plan of salvation and redemption for the whole world. Yes, we should stand and speak for what is right. But be sure to see things from Gods perspective and remember the bigger picture in all of it. Thy Kingdom Come, Thy Will Be Done – on earth as it is in heaven. Love Mel
