BELIEVER'S PERSONAL SENSE OF DESTINY!

Now we study about the life of Joshua. Joshua (Hebrew: יְהוֹשֻׁעַ‎ Yehoshua; Greek: Iησος, same as Jesus; Latin: Josue or Jesus in Hebrews; Arabic: يشع بن نون‎ Yusha‘ ibn Nūn), according to the Hebrew Bible, became the leader of the Israelite tribes after the death of Moses. His story is told chiefly in the books Exodus, Numbers and Joshua. According to the Bible, Joshua's name was Hoshea the son of Nun, of the tribe of Ephraim, but that Moses called him Joshua, (Numbers 13:16) and that is the name by which he is commonly known. He was born in Egypt prior to the Exodus, and was probably the same age as Caleb, with whom he is occasionally associated. He was one of the twelve spies of Israel sent by Moses to explore the land of Canaan. “And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,Send thou men, that they may search the land of Canaan, which I give unto the children of Israel: of every tribe of their fathers shall ye send a man, every one a ruler among them. And Moses by the commandment of the LORD sent them from the wilderness of Paran: all those men were heads of the children of Israel. And these were their names: of the tribe of Reuben, Shammua the son of Zaccur. Of the tribe of Simeon, Shaphat the son of Hori. Of the tribe of Judah, Caleb the son of Jephunneh. Of the tribe of Issachar, Igal the son of Joseph. Of the tribe of Ephraim, Oshea the son of Nun. Of the tribe of Benjamin, Palti the son of Raphu. Of the tribe of Zebulun, Gaddiel the son of Sodi. Of the tribe of Joseph, namely, of the tribe of Manasseh, Gaddi the son of Susi. Of the tribe of Dan, Ammiel the son of Gemalli. Of the tribe of Asher, Sethur the son of Michael. Of the tribe of Naphtali, Nahbi the son of Vophsi. Of the tribe of Gad, Geuel the son of Machi. These are the names of the men which Moses sent to spy out the land. And Moses called Oshea the son of Nun Jehoshua”(Num 13:1-16). After the death of Moses, he lead the Israelite tribes in the conquest of Canaan, and allocated the land to the tribes. The years in which these events took place is subject to academic dispute. According to conventional Bible chronology, Joshua lived between 1450 – 1370 BC, or sometime in the late Bronze Age. According to Joshua 24:29, Joshua died at the age of 110. Joshua also holds a position of respect to Muslims; the Shi'ah believes he was an Imam. The English name Joshua is a rendering of the Hebrew: יהושע‎ "Yehoshua," meaning "Yahweh is salvation", from the Hebrew root ישע, "salvation," "to deliver/be liberated," or "to be victorious." It often lacks a Hebrew letter vav (ו) before the shin (ש), allowing a reading of the vocalization of the name as Hoshea (הוֹשֵׁעַ) - the name is described in the Torah as having been originally Hoshea before Moses added the divine name (Numbers 13:16). "Jesus" is the rendition in English of the Greek transliteration of "Yehoshua". In the Septuagint, all instances of "Yehoshua" are rendered as "Iησοuς" (Iēsoūs/Jesus), the closest Greek pronunciation of the Hebrew. Joshua an old testament prophet was a young man chosen by God through Moses to be his assistant "And the LORD spake unto Moses face to face, as a man speaketh unto his friend. And he turned again into the camp: but his servant Joshua, the son of Nun, a young man, departed not out of the tabernacle"(Exo 33:11). He was a Military genius, trusted in the Lord and didn’t give an evil report like the majority of the spies did in the Israel. Today the Israel Intelligence The Mossad (HaMossad leModi'in uleTafkidim Meyuchadim, Hebrew: המוסד למודיעין ולתפקידים מיוחדים‎ - Institute for Intelligence and Special Operations) is the national intelligence agency of Israel. "Mossad" is the Hebrew word for institute or institution. The Mossad is responsible for intelligence collection and covert operations including paramilitary activities. It is one of the main entities in the Israeli Intelligence Community, along with Aman (military intelligence) and Shin Bet (internal security), but its director reports directly to the Prime Minister. Its role and function is similar to that of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and the Secret Intelligence Service (SIS). The Institute for Intelligence and Special Operations, otherwise known as the Mossad, has been appointed by the State of Israel to collect information, analyze intelligence, and perform special covert operations beyond its borders.The Main Bible Verse by which the Mossad is based on "Where no counsel is, the people fall, but in the multitude of counselors there is safety"(Proverbs 11:14). Over the years, the Mossad has expanded into many fields, the most prominent of which are: 1.Covert intelligence gathering beyond Israel’s borders. 2.Preventing the development and procurement of non-conventional weapons by hostile countries. Preventing terrorist acts against Israeli targets abroad. 3.Developing and maintaining special diplomatic and other covert relations. 4.Bringing Jews home from countries where official Aliya agencies are not allowed to operate. 5.Producing strategic, political and operational intelligence. 6.Planning and carrying out special operations beyond Israel’s borders. A Word by Mossad's Director: [The State of Israel has tasked the Mossad with collecting intelligence and performing special covert operations abroad. Its job is to identify and block threats to the state and its citizens, and to reinforce the country's security and safety. It is a special privilege to serve in the Mossad and I am especially privileged to serve as its director. People enrolling in the Mossad join generations of anonymous and dedicated combatants and intelligence officers who are loyal and devoted to their people and country. The Mossad's mainstay is its people. They are the very heart of the Mossad. They are its prime movers. They are from the front operational line. People serving in the Mossad are required to give to Israel of their talents, their dedication and their courage. The Mossad's people are always aware of their goals; they maintain confidentiality and serve with modesty and loyalty. I wish you every success. Meir Dagan Director, Mossad Most of the US and European nations trust cent percent of Mossads intelligence. It happened during the NDA government the BJP leader LK Advani had been to Israel nation to be trained to strengthen the Indian intelligence agencies.Even the present Congress government even made similar measures by PM Manmohan Singh.Most of the Indian Intelligence agencies of India is closely working with Mossad's to tackle the problem of growing Terrorism in India.Even in Mumbai attacks last year most of the Jewish people were targeted by the terrorists at Nariman Point (Chabad House) in this regard to create phobia in the hearts of India-Israel relationship.The Israeli government responded quickly to counter attack the terrorist activities at Mumbai ,however the Indian NSG had fought very well with terrorists. The Israel as a tiny nation not more than at least the geographical structure of Ananthapur (Dist) of AP, India is strong among its Islamic foes in its military might and spying network. A strong spying network of a nation results to be a safe and secure nation. A weakened spying network of a nation results to be a weakened safety and security of a nation. We see Joshua was a “Stand in the gap” individual who went against the majority. This prepared him to fulfill his personal sense of destiny.Infact because of his faithfulness Joshua was one of the few survivors of the exodus generation (Num 26:55).His Divine Bestowed vision and personal sense of destiny was to lead the children of Israel into the Promise land and to establish them as a united nation for the glory and honor of the Almighty God. Today God is calling Young wo/men to be the leaders for fulfilling the personal sense of destiny.As a part of it the lord confirmed Joshua before the people as his new Leader (Jos 1:1-9).3 times in the above verses the following phrase “Only be strong and Very courageous” is used. "Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the LORD thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest"(Josh 1:9). The Lord Now utilizing the skill and obedience of Joshua to lead the people in a conquest of the land (Jos 6:1-12:24).As a part of our personal sense of destiny, the Lord waits to develop always the use of those spiritual skills and then he guides us and uses us to fulfill His will.Spiritual skills must always precede production skills such as 1.Technical Skills 2.Interpersonal skills 3.Diagnose skills 4.Conceptual skills and very importantly the 5.Political Skill.The life and book of Joshua as the inspiration for us in the spiritual realm.The Exodus generation is a photograph of the loser believer in the present age.As such the teachings regarding it constitute a warning to us! "Now these things were our examples, to the intent we should not lust after evil things, as they also lusted"(I Cor 10:6). "Now all these things happened unto them for examples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come" (I Cor 10:11). However the next generation, which we can call the conquest generation is a photograph of the winner believer in the mystery dispensation of the church –age. The conquest generation depicts by anology the winner believer who after conflictFinally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. "Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand"(Eph 6:10-13) “Stands” to receive the great assets and blessings which were placed on deposit for him in the highest heavens in eternity past by God the Father. "Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ"(Eph 1:3). "For the hope which is laid up for you in heaven, whereof ye heard before in the word of the truth of the gospel"(Col 1:5). Now Israel, under Joshua’s Command who in turn was under the command of the Lord Jesus Christ was commanded to go forward and dispose seven nations before the possessing the Land.These seven Evil nations are anoalogous to seven assaults against the believers soul in the present dispensation. These are found in (Joshua 3:10) "And Joshua said, Hereby ye shall know that the living God is among you, and that he will without fail drive out from before you the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Hivites, and the Perizzites, and the Girgashites, and the Amorites, and the Jebusites".The seven nations are analogous to the battles which take place in the soul after we go forward into our own promise land and receive escrow blessings for both time and eternity. A quick review: 1) CANAANITES: Analogous with the sin nature competing for control of the soul ! "That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts;"(Eph 4:22). 2) HITTITES: Analogous to the Cosmic systems competing for influence of the soul! "Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience" (Eph 2:2). "Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world" (I John 2:15-16). 3) HIVITES: An analogy of satan or the devil and his plan and demonic attack made upon the Soul! "Neither give place to the devil. Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labour, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth".(Eph 4:27-28). 4) PERIZZITES: Analogous to false doctrines assaulting against the soul! "That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive;"(Eph 4:14). They are like prosperity theology, Holier than thou, Hypocrisy, Self righteous and Disobedient to authority Orientation. 5) GIRGASHITES:BeingUnwise,wasting time and Alcoholic lifestyle filled with fear! "Redeeming the time, because the days are evil. Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is. And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit;"(Eph 5:16-18). 6) AMORITES: Represent external adversities of all kinds of suffering which can overwhelm the soul’s line of resistance if allowed! "Wherefore I desire that ye faint not at my tribulations for you, which is your glory" (Eph 3:13). 7) JEBUSITES: Represent Carnal believers who are suckers for the public lie and its union with public opinion leading to strong delusion! "Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour: for we are members one of another" (Eph 4:25). "Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness"(II Thess 2:9-12).So We should not associate with the liars. So a few principles concerning the Analogies: A. Bible Doctrine in its “Epignosis” form produces the necessary power and resistance against these fronts (Josh 1:8-9; Eph 1:8; 4:11-16; 6:10-18). B. The “Promise Land” (Josh 1:2-3) is analogous to “All Spiritual blessings in the heavenly places with Christ Jesus” (Eph 1:3). C. Confidence and courage from doctrine precedes successful conflict, conquest and possession of what was promised (Josh 1:6-18). "And she said unto the men, I know that the LORD hath given you the land, and that your terror is fallen upon us, and that all the inhabitants of the land faint because of you."(Josh 2:9). E. Authority –Orientation is imperative for preparation for conquest and is also needed in the church-age. "There shall not any man be able to stand before thee all the days of thy life: as I was with Moses, so I will be with thee: I will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.Be strong and of a good courage: for unto this people shalt thou divide for an inheritance the land, which I sware unto their fathers to give them.Only be thou strong and very courageous, that thou mayest observe to do according to all the law, which Moses my servant commanded thee: turn not from it to the right hand or to the left, that thou mayest prosper withersoever thou goest.This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success. Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the LORD thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest"(Joshua 1:5-9).

Director, Mossad

Most of the US and European nations trust cent percent of Mossads intelligence. It happened during the NDA government the BJP leader LK Advani had been to Israel nation to be trained to strengthen the Indian intelligence agencies.Even the present Congress government even made similar measures by PM Manmohan Singh.Most of the Indian Intelligence agencies of India is closely working with Mossad's to tackle the problem of growing Terrorism in India.Even in Mumbai attacks last year most of the Jewish people were targeted by the terrorists at Nariman Point (Chabad House) in this regard to create phobia in the hearts of India-Israel relationship.The Israeli government responded quickly to counter attack the terrorist activities at Mumbai ,however the Indian NSG had fought very well with terrorists.

"For the hope which is laid up for you in heaven, whereof ye heard before in the word of the truth of the gospel"(Col 1:5).

E. Authority –Orientation is imperative for preparation for conquest and is also needed in the church-age.

"There shall not any man be able to stand before thee all the days of thy life: as I was with Moses, so I will be with thee: I will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.Be strong and of a good courage: for unto this people shalt thou divide for an inheritance the land, which I sware unto their fathers to give them.Only be thou strong and very courageous, that thou mayest observe to do according to all the law, which Moses my servant commanded thee: turn not from it to the right hand or to the left, that thou mayest prosper withersoever thou goest.This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success. Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the LORD thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest"(Joshua 1:5-9).
