Joshua 6:20
So the people shouted when the priests blew with the trumpets; and it came to pass when the people heard the sound of the trumpet, and the people shouted with a great shout, that the walls fell down flat, to that the people went up into the city, every man straight before him, and they took the city.
SHOUT OF PRAISE BRINGS DOWN WALLS
Has the Church lost its shout? In many places the Church is quiet on many issues, issues that are close to the heart of GOD. They are quiet about poverty and violence; homelessness and unemployment; sickness in body, mind and spirit and sickness in the home. A quiet Church has lost its shout so the walls of injustice remain thick and strong. We must begin to march around the "city" of injustice and violence; when the trumpet blast sounds, we must shout. What is it that we shout? We shout praise unto JESUS; we shout thanksgiving to the King of Kings and LORD of LORDS.
When we face a "Jericho" of trouble, we must march forward around that troublesome city. Our marching forward is to take care of those things needed to accomplish the path of recovery. Then, when the trumpet of the LORD sounds, signaling that the time is right, then with a loud shout we praise the LORD and watch the walls of adversity crumble.When the walls have crumbled there is a straight path through the trouble to the glorious promise of GOD.
GOD HAS GIVEN US THE "CITY", GO CLAIM IT WITH A SHOUT OF VICTORY
