Crossing the Threshold: From Wilderness Refinement to Covenant Inheritance

Summary

A Global Welcome, Prayer, and an Update on Toby
The broadcast opens with the host greeting viewers joining from numerous locations in the United States and around the world. She thanks viewers for their concern and prayers for Toby and says a fuller update will come later in the program. She then leads an extended Christian prayer centered on Jesus Christ, repentance, the Holy Spirit, spiritual protection, surrender, and asking God to direct the broadcast. After the prayer, she briefly reports that Toby has returned home after two days in the hospital and a serious surgery. She thanks the sanctuary staff members who are caring for him so she can conduct the broadcast. She then introduces the main message as a prophetic alert about a powerful season of deliverance and transition.

From Wilderness Survival to Inheritance
The central teaching uses the biblical movement from Egypt, through the wilderness, and into the Promised Land as a framework for the season the host believes people are entering. Egypt is presented as bondage, the wilderness as formation and refining, and Canaan as inheritance and stewardship. She emphasizes two stages: being brought out of bondage and then being brought into what God has allotted as an inheritance. According to the host, many listeners have learned to function under heavy, difficult conditions and have grown through obedience during that wilderness period. She argues that survival-mode habits cannot simply be carried unchanged into a season of possession and responsibility. The transition therefore requires a different mindset, heart posture, vision, and level of consecration.

Moses, Joshua, Caleb, and Different Assignments
The host distinguishes the assignments of Moses from those of Joshua and Caleb. Moses is described as the deliverer and wilderness leader who brought Israel to the threshold, while Joshua and Caleb represent the faith and leadership needed to enter, fight for, and steward the inheritance. She stresses that these are successive assignments within one divine purpose rather than competing callings. The wilderness, in her framing, is where leaders are forged and where a people accustomed to bondage must learn trust, obedience, dependence on God, and covenant identity. She says the Promised Land requires a new posture because the people must become possessors rather than possessions. This distinction becomes a major metaphor for personal transition and for the national application she develops later in the message.

Korah, the Spies, and Faith Over Fear
The host next uses Korah's rebellion and the twelve spies as examples of the dividing line between rebellion, fear, and faith. She portrays Korah as pursuing position, influence, and authority under the appearance of concern for the people, and she applies that pattern prophetically to the church and the nation. She then contrasts the ten spies, who focused on the strength of the inhabitants of Canaan, with Joshua and Caleb, who focused on God's covenant and promise. Her repeated point is that faith does not deny the existence of giants, obstacles, or difficult circumstances; rather, it refuses to make those circumstances sovereign over God's promise. She describes the wilderness as a place that exposes what is in the heart and either refines a person for leadership or hardens a person in unbelief and rebellion. The host says the coming transition requires listeners to choose the Joshua-and-Caleb posture of trust, surrender, and obedience.

A Plumb Line, Sifting, Delays, and National Application
The host repeatedly describes the period ahead as a plumb line, a sifting, and a threshold between an old season and new territory. She says some relationships, habits, positions, and other things may not be able to move forward into the next season, and she acknowledges that such separation can be painful. She also argues that delays are not always caused by the enemy and may sometimes be part of God's positioning and preparation. The message is applied not only personally but also politically, including statements about President Trump, the Trump administration, the nation's rededication to God, and preparation for 2028; these are presented as the host's prophetic and political interpretations. She says the 'Joshuas and Calebs' are being positioned for what she calls covenant battles in the land. Throughout this section, she urges listeners to remain consecrated, surrender their preferred plans, and trust God's direction even when the transition does not initially make sense.

Recovery, Ministry Resources, Sponsors, and Closing Encouragement
Near the end, the host gives a detailed update on Toby, saying the tumor was removed during surgery along with the bottom lobe of one lung and that he is home, groggy, and receiving pain medication. She thanks the veterinary team and viewers who prayed and assisted. She also asks for help finding a home for Norman, a five-year-old longhaired cat near Rockford, Illinois, and promotes a seven-day prayer devotional titled Draw Near. The host then reads sponsor messages for MyPillow and a water-filtration company transcribed as Century H2O, including discount codes and product claims. She closes by announcing her expected return on Tuesday, noting the approach of 9/11 and the Jewish year 5787, and encouraging listeners to read and recite several biblical passages. The final message thanks the Ark of Grace team and viewers, promises continued updates on Toby, and ends with an encouragement to keep the faith.

I will speak about Toby a moment after prayer, but I'm going to give a full update on him at the end of the broadcast. But I will give you a little preview after we open in prayer. We thank you for all your concern, your prayers, your help with Toby. We are just so appreciative of that. So let's open in prayer, because we are going to talk about - much like the prophetic word I delivered in the form of Genesis 37, when I talked about Joseph and the Ishmaelites - this powerful new season that we are entering. So you don't want to miss this. So let's open in prayer. Give this over to the Lord and then we will begin tonight. So, Father God, in the precious name of Your Son, Jesus Christ, Yeshua HaMashiach,

Lord, we come before You this day. We praise You. You're Almighty God. You are high and lifted up far above every power, principality and might. Lord, we give You all the glory, honor, and praise due Your precious holy name. Father, we just humble ourselves before You. We come before Your courts with thanksgiving and praise, saying, "Your kingdom come. Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven." It is written, "Seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you." Father, help us to seek Your kingdom first. Teach us what pleases You today, Father. Equip us to walk in Your ways. Father, Lord, as we come humbly but boldly before the throne of grace, we acknowledge Your Son, Jesus Christ, Father God,

Lord, and what He did for us. He died for our sins, Father God. We ask that You forgive us of our sins, cleanse us of all unrighteousness, and forgive us of every way we've sinned and fallen short. Jesus Christ was the Word made flesh. He dwelt among us. He was the Passover lamb. He was beaten for our transgressions. He was bruised for our iniquities. The chastisement of our peace was upon Him, and by His stripes we are healed. And He miraculously rose again in three days. He blotted out ordinances. He disarmed principalities and powers. He made an open show and spectacle of the enemy before all of creation. He said, "It is finished." He said, "Tetelestai" - paid in full. And we were purchased, redeemed, and reconciled back to You, Father God. We praise You that Christ miraculously rose again. He ascended back to be with the Father. He victoriously took His place at the right hand of the Father, where He rules and reigns forevermore. He is the King of Kings, the Lord of Lords, the name above all names, and our advocate without ceasing before the Lord. We honor that before You this day. Father, in the name of Jesus Christ, we welcome Your presence and the presence of the Spirit of the living God, the Ruach HaKodesh, the Holy Spirit, into this place, Father.

Lord, we welcome Your presence, the weight of Your glory, Your power, Your truth, Father God, Your prophetic utterance, Father God, the holiness of who You are, Father, the weight of the conviction of who You are and of the throne that You sit on, Father God. Lord, we welcome You in to move and have Your way, Father God. Lord, let the Holy Spirit go forth as the Counselor and minister to those watching, that people would tangibly feel the presence and the fire of Almighty God and the weight, Father God, of You moving tonight. Lord, we just thank You and praise You. Lord, we ask that You would go before us and be our front and rear guard tonight, order our steps, order my words, Lord, as we go forth, and fill us, in the name of Jesus Christ, with Your wisdom, counsel, might, power, and the reverential fear of the Lord. By the power of the blood of Jesus Christ, by the Spirit of the one true living God, may only the truth and power of Almighty God, with the heart of the Lord, go forth. Father, let nothing pass through my mouth that doesn't pass through Your throne first. Allow me and our team, Father, the humble privilege, Lord, of being vessels of Your power. Father, in the name of Jesus Christ, I ask that You would loose and dispatch right now Your holy angels of all offices, rankings, and divisions, Father God, to subdue and stop the enemies of God that oppose us in our assignments, mandates, and callings, to surround the skies, the land above and below, north, south, east, and west, to guard against every dimensional access point, Father God. In the name of Jesus Christ right now, we take authority over and rebuke every plot, scheme, contract, assignment, weaponry, blueprint, attack, strategy, sabotage, witchcraft, spell, incantation, enchantment, smoke, any form of weaponized demonic activity. Sent against us. And in the name of Jesus Christ right now, let it all, by the holy fire of God, be dismantled, destroyed, disabled, thwarted, disrupted, blocked, nullified, voided, and rendered powerless, and let their communication lines be disrupted so they cannot carry out their plans. And let it be cast back to the areas You have designated for such, Father God, to be blocked from returning or having anything sent in its place, Father. Lord, take all the glory for Yourself. You are the Potter. We are most certainly just the clay. You are the Author and Finisher of our faith. Every breath we take is because of You. We are the dust of the earth. Without Your breath of life in us, help us to walk in that humility, in that surrendered position, Father God, in the consecration that this season requires. Father, equip us, sharpen us, guard our hearts, and guard our minds. Father God, thank You, Lord. You have not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and a sound mind. Father God, thank You, Lord, that the peace of God that surpasses all understanding will put a guard over our mind and our heart through Christ Jesus. For it is written, Father. We praise You, Lord, for Your provision. We praise You, Father God. Your Word says You are ever present, You will never leave us or forsake us, and that You order our steps. Father God, You say, "This is the way; walk ye in it," whenever we turn to the right or to the left. Father God, Lord, take all the glory for Yourself. Father, we praise You tonight. We thank You. Let this word that gets released tonight, Father God, be powerful and precise, and accomplish what You have ordained for it to accomplish, in the name of Jesus Christ. We praise You. In Jesus Christ's name we pray. Amen and amen. Praise the Lord. Welcome to everybody who jumped on during prayer. We're so happy to have you with us. If you could share this broadcast right now, like, subscribe, and hit the notification bell, you'll be notified anytime we put out content.

And if you're listening to that in advance, we thank our wonderful subscribers for doing that. It is free for you to do it and we just appreciate so much your help with that. Okay, so before we get started tonight, I'll give you an update. A little update on Toby, and then we'll talk about it in greater length at the end of the broadcast. Toby came home this afternoon. Right now, one of our sanctuary staffers, Lance, is staying so I can do the broadcast. He's watching Toby and taking care of him and the other animals so I can be on here focusing on what the Lord needs me to do. I'm so appreciative of our animal staff. They are willing to do things like that; they are willing to stay late. They are willing to help us in these situations. We're very grateful for that, and Emily, our system manager, went down and got Toby today. So we thank her as well. I'll give you more of an update on Toby at the end. We have a picture, too, that we'll show you. We actually filmed his homecoming, so our team will be putting that together and putting it out for you to see - Toby's homecoming after being in the hospital two days and undergoing a very serious surgery. All glory be to God that Toby is home. Okay, so tonight.

This is what we could call a prophetic alert, a prophetic word. It's being delivered in the same format as the Genesis 37 Joseph-and-the-Ishmaelites warning about what was coming between 2026 and 2028. It's being delivered in that way, but it is a word for this season that we are entering because we are about to enter and transition into a powerful new season that is about deliverance and transition. It's going to look probably unlike any other that has happened before, not only in your lives, but in the nation. And so we want to prepare you for that. We want to release this tonight, prepare you for this season, release the word, and speak into the time that we are in. We are in a critical time. We are in a crucial hour. We are about to enter the year 5787 on the Jewish calendar. Things are aligning. Things are poised right now to truly transition in powerful ways, including deliverance for the people of God from a wilderness season that they have been in. And so we want to talk about that. We're going to get into all of it tonight. But this you definitely want to hear given where we are about to go and you're going to understand the type of season we are entering as we go deeper and deeper into this tonight because the people of God have to position themselves, be in the right heart posture, be in the right surrender, be ready, and be willing to go where God wants them to go, because it's new territory. So this is not going to look like your other seasons. Your other seasons were meant to prepare you for this very season in your life and the dramatic change that is going to happen. Praise the Lord. So that's just the appetizer. Okay, let's begin. This season is a season of great transition and great change for the people of God. A plumb line is being dropped to divide the last season that we are exiting from the season we are entering.

So it's new territory. It will look very different from the old. Therefore, how you respond and prepare must be different, because this is a time of consecration for this season. This month is the dividing line. Entering the season is the dividing line between Moses and Joshua and Caleb. That's the type of plumb line that's being dropped, and I'm going to explain. So there is a deliverance and a transition happening. It's a time of great transition in the lives of the people of God, as well as the nation and we'll get into that. So in the last season, you have carried some very heavy things that might have broken others. You, by God's grace, carried those things and faithfully carried them, even though it was hard, heavy, and exhausting. You did it because you were in pursuit of obedience to the Lord, and because of the refining and positioning for the plans and purposes that God has for you. So you did it because you're used to functioning in heaviness. You're used to persevering in pain and trial. You are used to navigating rough terrain.

Now, Exodus chapter 3, verses 7 through 8 says, "So I have come down to rescue them from the hand of the Egyptians and to bring them up from that land to a land that is good and spacious to a land flowing with milk and honey to the place of the Canaanite, the Hittite, the Amorite, the Perizzite, the Hivite, the Jebusite, and every other '-ite' that existed in that land." Now, notice here, there are two stages: bring them out and bring them in. Bring them out of Egypt and bring them into the promise, into the land flowing with milk and honey, into the inheritance. So this powerful transitional season we are entering has two parts. Bring you out of the bondage - decades' worth that you have been enduring, that Egypt, that wilderness time - and then bring you into what Almighty God has ordained and allotted for you as an inheritance. Now, the first part of the season is Moses and deliverance. The second part is Joshua and Caleb, because Moses could not enter, and that generation couldn't enter, the inheritance - the Promised Land, the territory where they would actually fight for the land. So it was a new beginning, a covenant walk, and battles in the Promised Land. Those who hindered, grumbled, doubted, or attempted to usurp whom the Lord had placed at the helm as a leader in that wilderness period - none of that could enter the Promised Land. None of that could break the threshold of it. Joshua and Caleb, and that generation, are the ones who entered. They were refined in the wilderness to prepare them to break the threshold of the Promised Land. You see, the old wine could not mix with the new wine. The old wine couldn't go in the new wineskin that God was forming. The wilderness and the land flowing with milk and honey could not cross-contaminate. The wilderness and the land flowing with milk and honey cannot cross-contaminate. They are separate. They are meant to be separate. And they are meant in their own right to accomplish certain things. Now, the Lord is dropping that plumb line in this season. There cannot be cross-contamination. What was in the wilderness season cannot enter or break the threshold of the new territory ahead. The key to this is Moses was chosen to bring Israel out of Egypt and lead them through the wilderness. Joshua and Caleb were among those chosen to believe God for the inheritance of the land and actually fight and defend the inheritance. Moses is for the wilderness. Joshua and Caleb are for the inheritance and the covenant battles for it.

So Moses ultimately brought Israel to the threshold rather than into the inheritance. That distinction is very important in the season we're entering. He was the covenant mediator standing before the nation. Moses was literally the mediator of the covenant between the nation of Israel and Almighty God. So leadership carries a great responsibility when a leader is the covenant mediator. And speaking to this nationally, President Trump had the nation rededicated to the Lord back in May 2026. He in a way is now the covenant mediator between the nation and Almighty God. And that representation has to be in submission and in walking in step with the Lord for one to stay in that position. He cannot make himself out to be the source in all of this. It must be clear to the people. God is the source. He is just the mediator of a now-reestablished covenant. He is the leader and the mediator of a covenant that has now been reestablished in this nation. So the navigation and survival in the wilderness is far different than legally entering a land under covenant and taking possession of the inheritance that God has ordained for you. So to give you an example of this, Egypt represents bondage. The wilderness represents formation and refining. So the people were in bondage in Egypt. They now come out into the wilderness where it has to do with formation and refining because Joshua and Caleb were forged into leaders that they became in the wilderness, not in the Promised Land. They were forged in the wilderness into the leaders they became for the battles ahead. Canaan, the Promised Land, represented the inheritance - what can now be given unto you because you have been forged in the wilderness into a vessel that can now handle the stewardship and the requirements of that territory. So what now can be given unto you is greater because you've been forged in the wilderness into a vessel that can now handle and carry the stewardship and the requirements of actually standing in that territory and defending it. So Israel could leave Egypt in one night, but Egypt could not necessarily be removed from Israel in one night. That's why you needed the wilderness season. Israel was physically taken out of Egypt, but then in the wilderness, Egypt had to be taken out of the people. They came out physically before they were transformed internally. That is why the wilderness became necessary. God had to teach a slave generation how to become a covenant people. If you have the mentality of a slave who's in bondage, you don't know how to be the possessor of what covenant gives you. Now in the wilderness, the people had to learn trust instead of fear, obedience instead of rebellion, dependence instead of self-sufficiency, faith instead of the nearsightedness of what they could only see in front of them, and covenant identity instead of a slave mentality. This is why the generation that came out of Egypt largely did not enter the Promised Land. So there is a profound distinction between being delivered from something and being prepared to possess something. There are two very different things. Moses was extraordinarily equipped for deliverance and for the wilderness, but Joshua and Caleb were extraordinarily equipped for inheritance and to actually stand and defend in the covenant battles that were required for them to take that territory. Now deliverance is needed when something attempts to bind and have a claim over you and hinders you from possessing what the Lord has for you. That's when deliverance is required. You see, the Jews did not possess in Egypt. They were the possessions. And possessions are not vessels that have the heart posture to possess because they are used to being led and dominated instead of leading and stewarding and walking in that faith with the Lord. So those who refused, in their behavior, to be willing to transition from being a possession to being a possessor did not enter the Promised Land.

So this season that we're entering is a transitional, transformative season. Everything you carried in the wilderness, the heaviness, you know, you have grown tremendously under heavy unfavorable circumstances. You have grown tremendously in that time. However, your obedience and pursuit of the Lord caused you to grow even in that. However, growth can only go so far there, and the limits of the wilderness are about to be taken off of you. So you have grown a lot. The Lord has even blessed you in the wilderness. You have been sharpened. You have been prepared. You have grown in unfavorable circumstances because you were in pursuit of obedience to the Lord. The harsh conditions of the wilderness did not outweigh your obedience to the Lord. And now you're coming to the threshold of breaking out of that season into this incredibly transitional, transformative season that has to do with the inheritance and that territory into which, because of covenant, you're being brought. So it's about stepping into freedom. It's about walking into new territory. Now, they knew how to survive the wilderness, but then they had to transition to fight and prosper in the promise. So they were in survival mode. This is very important for many of you out there right now. They were in survival mode in the wilderness. You can prosper in survival mode, but you'll only get so far. So wilderness is about surviving. It's about going into that survival mode, digging deep and doing what you have to do to persevere. But for them to break the threshold of the Promised Land, they had to transition to a different mindset, heart posture, and vision in order to fight and prosper in the promise. The old wine of the wilderness cannot come into the new territory, into the new wineskins. The old wine is not meant to enter. So as far as the nation goes in this, because we're doing this personally and for the nation because it's running parallel, when the nation was rededicated to the Lord back in May 2026, that was the prophetic announcement before the nation that we were about to transition from wilderness to a covenant battle for the land nationally. And it was the announcement to the people of God that, in their own lives, a plumb line was about to be dropped to transition now into this very powerful and transformative season of deliverance, transition, and inheritance that God has for you. Now, deliverance out of Egypt and refining in the wilderness - that's the first part. Then transitioning into the covenant promises and new territory, and being equipped to actually handle, carry, and defend the inheritance and that land, is the second part.

Now, if we go to Hebrews chapter 3, verses 9 through 11 - 9/11, because this is a 9/11 moment. This is a 9/11 moment in so many ways in this nation and in the lives of the people of God, it says, "Where your fathers tried Me by testing and saw My works for 40 years." He's talking about the wilderness. Therefore, I was angered with this generation and I said, "They always go astray in their heart, and they did not know My ways." So I swore in My wrath. This is the Lord talking. "They shall not enter My rest." When you enter rest, you enter the promise. The wilderness is about survival mode. Getting into the Promised Land is actually about resting in the Lord. Now those scriptures are nine through 11 because it's that season. It's that type of season and the plumb line is being dropped. The transition is happening. Almighty God is making the distinction of what cannot enter and go with you and who cannot enter and go with you. So right now, we've got that plumb line being dropped because we're about to transition into this season. And it's about what cannot enter with you and who cannot enter with you because not everybody can go. Not everybody is prepared and refined to go where God is taking you as Esther is doing acrobatics on my chair behind me.

Okay. In fact, Korah's rebellion in Numbers 14 occurred in the wilderness and it was put down in the wilderness. Korah and 250 men - as we are in America's 250th year - and look at the rebellion rising in the nation through an unholy trinity, right, in the world of Democrat, socialist, Islam. Korah's rebellion in the wilderness. You see, Korah painted a picture to the people that Moses was hurting them and Korah was truly their deliverer. He was there to deliver them. He had a better way. That was an alternative path to get them out of the wilderness. Now, in this time in your lives, Korah's rebellion is going to be put down - those who have risen up claiming they have a better way, a better plan, and are better suited to lead what Almighty God has ordained for you to steward. Korah was after the platform, the influence, the wealth that came with Moses. Korah was boisterous. He was a bully. He rounded up 250 influential men among Israel to align with him to validate his claim and give a false illusion of legitimacy to it. Moses and Joshua, during that, walked in the fear of the Lord, not mockery, not name-calling, not bitterness, but in the fear of the Lord when that showdown was happening with Korah. And that rebellion was put down in a very public way. In fact, the Lord wanted to destroy all of the people from that rebellion, all of them. And Moses, as the mediator, interceded for mercy for the lives of the rest of the people.

There is a vine that has risen, a branch that sounds like concern for the welfare of the people of God. That sounds like the truth. However, the soul of it is rebellion. It's mockery, not the fear of the Lord. It's chasing influence as a voice of authority, claiming to know what is best for the people. They claim to have the way of deliverance instead of fully submitting to the Lord in their own personal lives and having command and order there. There are people who do this - the Korahs. They have no order in their personal lives. However, they proclaim the way of deliverance for the people of God. They proclaim the way of deliverance for people around them. Korah was out of order in his personal life. His heart posture was prideful. His soul was greedy. His mind was scheming for a way to take headship that was not given unto him by God. And he rallied a small influential group of people within those in the wilderness to validate his claims. The Lord allowed him to accuse. He allowed Korah to boast. He allowed Korah to mock. He allowed Korah to scheme. And just when Korah thinks he's about to take Moses down, just when Korah believes he has him, the Lord, without warning, opens up the earth and swallows him and the 250 that were with him before the people. Right now, this is prophetically running parallel in the church and in the nation with what we are about to enter because that happened in the wilderness. You see, that showdown happened in the wilderness and Joshua and Caleb witnessed that. They witnessed that showdown. They witnessed what Korah did. They witnessed what God did and it forged them in the fear of the Lord to be positioned properly now in order to lead the people now into the covenant battles in the land. Watch the spectacle as it's put down nationally and in the church because Korah never bothered to seek the Lord and ask the Lord for perspective before he decided to pursue Moses. He saw a window to exploit and created a narrative that it was out of concern for the people when truly he was after position, power and platform. That is what was in Korah's heart that was exposed during that showdown. You know why? Because in the wilderness is when rebellion will be drawn out of the people. You see, in the wilderness, what is truly in the people begins to come out of them. In the harsh conditions of the wilderness, truly what is in the heart - "out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks" - begins to be squeezed out of people. And presented for all to see. Truly, that's what the wilderness does. That's why Korah's rebellion happened in the wilderness. That's why we're watching what's happening now in the nation. That's why we're seeing certain things in the church because that's what the wilderness will do. It will draw literally what you're made of and what's in you and what's in your heart out of you in those conditions. And it's either going to refine you and forge you into a leader, or it's going to swallow you up and destroy you because you are not fully submitted before the Lord and not in the heart posture you need to be. And this is why they wandered in the wilderness for 40 years. They refused to fully surrender to God's way.

Entering this season, you're surrendering to God's way. You're surrendering to His way, His timing, His plans, His purposes, who He wants with you, who He doesn't want with you, the path He needs you to take, the things He needs you to do, where He needs you to grow, where He needs you to heal. Caleb and Joshua went through that in order to enter the inheritance, in order to enter that land and lead in those covenant battles. The wilderness drops a plumb line between those who want to pursue the things of God and between those who are peddling a narrative that has nothing to do with God. You see, God commanded Moses to send men to spy out the land of Canaan. Twelve men went, one representing each tribe. Among them were Joshua representing Ephraim and Caleb representing Judah. Now, the spies returned after 40 days of spying out the covenant land. They agreed that the land was extraordinarily fertile, that it was land flowing with milk and honey, but ten of the twelve spies emphasized the strength of the inhabitants and their fortified cities over what God had ordained through covenant. Their conclusion was, "We are not able to go up against the people, for they are stronger than we are." But Caleb responded differently. He said, "Let us go up at once and occupy it, for we are well able to overcome it." That was Numbers 13:30, I believe, Numbers 13:30. Numbers 14 explicitly contrasts Caleb and Joshua with the rest of Israel. God says, in Numbers 14:24, "But My servant Caleb, because he has a different spirit and has followed me fully, I will bring into the land in which he entered and his descendants shall take possession of it." Then later on, in the same chapter, Numbers 14, verses 30 through 31: "Except for Caleb, the son of Jephunneh and Joshua, the son of Nun, not one of you shall enter the land in which I swore an oath to settle you, but your children whom you said would become plunder, I will bring in and they will know the land which you have despised and rejected." "Because you have rejected the word of the Lord, the Lord has rejected you." Twelve spies were sent to examine the territory. Ten spies essentially said, we are not able. Joshua and Caleb essentially said, God is able. That is the dividing line between the wilderness and the inheritance. It's between we are not able and God is able.

Now, the ten spies interpreted God through the circumstances. They made the circumstances greater than the capacity of God's power. Joshua and Caleb interpreted the circumstances through Almighty God and His covenant that the circumstances ultimately had to yield to Almighty God's decision and jurisdiction in the matter. God has promised us the land. Therefore, the existence of obstacles does not invalidate the promise. That's faith. That's faith. Faith isn't pretending the giants aren't in the land, that the obstacles aren't there, that the mountain isn't there, that the problem isn't there. Faith is knowing that the giant, the obstacle, the mountain, the problem is not greater than the God who gave you the promise and who equipped you to go in and overcome it. That's faith. God and His promises legally far outweigh any obstacle that exists. However, it takes His people recognizing that and coming into agreement with it for it to legally take effect and begin to change the entire landscape of the battle. When God's people come into agreement with that, the entire landscape of the battle changes. The entire conditions of the battle change. That is where God's people have to move into now for the season of deliverance and transition that is about to happen. That is going to be one of the most powerful and transformative seasons in your lives. Caleb was operating from a different internal posture than the majority. He was operating from a different spiritual position and heart posture. The ten spies saw themselves in relation to the giants. "We were in our own sight as grasshoppers," they said. Caleb saw the giants in relation to God. This is why Caleb says in Numbers 13:30, "Let us go up at once and possess it, for we are well able to overcome it." Let us go and possess it because we have been given by God the jurisdiction and the right to take it because in God's court it is already ours. The judgment has been made. The ruling stands. That's what he was saying. Notice the confidence of what Caleb is saying. He knows who he serves. He knows the power of God. He knows a ratified covenant. He's got the vision. He's caught the vision from the heavenlies of what Almighty God wants to do in the lives of these people and in the land. He's caught the vision of this now.

Caleb wasn't claiming Israel's military strength was inherently superior to the Canaanites in any way, shape or form. He was confident because God had spoken it in advance. The word of the Lord had gone ahead into the land, into the atmosphere, into the soil and announced and prepared the way for them to come in, establish themselves in the land and be victorious in the battles in the land. Moses, Joshua, and Caleb actually represent two different leadership assignments and two different time frames in a season. That's what they represent in the season we're coming into. Moses was the deliverer, lawgiver, wilderness leader, which ended up refining Joshua and Caleb so they were ready to inherit the land. Moses was equipped to confront Pharaoh, break Israel out of Egypt, establish covenant, receive the law, build the tabernacle and lead Israel through a harsh wilderness. He was equipped to lead them to the precipice of the promise, to the threshold, because past that threshold was a whole different landscape to navigate. Moses was built for the wilderness. He wasn't built for the battles that were ahead. Joshua represents the successor - the warrior, inheritance leader. Joshua was equipped to cross the Jordan, lead Israel into Canaan, confront Jericho, lead military campaigns, divide the inheritance, establish Israel in the land. They were not competing callings. They were actually complementary. They were successive assignments in one divine purpose. This is what this season is going to be like. They are successive assignments in one divine purpose.

The first part is Moses: deliverance, bringing your lives to a threshold, and then the plumb line of what cannot go with you. You are being delivered from Egypt, refined in the wilderness, and now you're coming to the threshold - the plumb line between that and the inheritance. Now what cannot go with you begins to be divided and sifted out. The second part is Joshua: the warrior, the possessor, the one equipped to lead and fight the covenant battles and establish the people in the land. In the wilderness, Joshua was sharpened as a leader. He was prepared in the wilderness. The Lord separated and sifted out who could not move into the inheritance in the wilderness. God gave much instruction for the people in the wilderness. Leaders were fashioned, refined and sharpened to break the threshold of that covenant land. The wilderness has its purpose and the Lord has allowed it to fulfill such a purpose. However, now the transition begins into the inheritance: the taking of the land, the expansion of the territory, and the breaking free from Egypt, the harsh conditions of the wilderness, and what you endured internally. You internally endured a lot in the last season. You internally endured a lot, not only of pain, but of refining and of carrying very heavy things, of carrying things that mentally would have broken people, of allowing the Lord to refine you and sharpen you into what you are now coming out of this wilderness season. You see, people think in the wilderness you don't grow, you do. You grow in the wilderness, but it's a refinement. It's a stripping away of what God doesn't want, and a fortifying, growing, and establishing in you of what He needs you equipped with in order to now enter that new territory, to enter those covenant battles, to enter and establish yourself in the land. Moses could take Israel out of Egypt, but Moses couldn't produce the faith required to possess Canaan. That is a process of people making a decision to enter into trust and a season of refinement with the Lord. Moses could perform signs. He could confront Pharaoh, stretch out his rod, part the Red Sea, receive the law, and intercede before the people. Think about it, Israel saw all of it. They saw some of the most incredible signs and wonders of any time in history in that time, but Moses couldn't force Israel to believe. That's why the wilderness generation fell. Miracles alone don't create obedient hearts. The people of that era had seen Egypt defeated, the Red Sea divided, manna from heaven, water from the rock, God's glory, a cloud by day, fire by night, and yet they still rebelled and operated in doubt and unbelief.

So the problem was not a lack of evidence or physical signs. It was unbelief, the unbelief that had been fostered and nurtured in Egypt that had been rooted in the people that they were not willing to let go of because it's what they knew and they weren't willing to enter into that new season and new territory and new ways of doing things to become a possessor from a possession. Hebrews chapters 3 and 4 talk about this specifically in relation to the wilderness generation. Now the Promised Land required a different heart posture, a different vision, a different preparation, a willingness to go into new territory, a willingness to fight, a willingness to have the vision and the faith that goes beyond the nearsightedness of what they were seeing, not only to the world, not only in the wilderness, but what they were seeing within the inheritance of the land, the giants of the land, the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Amorites. Egypt taught Israel, "We are slaves; we are the possession." That's what Egypt did to Israel. The wilderness taught them, "We depend upon God. Our identity is through Him, in the covenant that He's given us, not through Egypt." Canaan required them to learn and say, "We trust God and what He says enough to obey Him in the face of opposition for Almighty God has jurisdiction over the land." There is a level of trust and surrender and consecration that it takes to enter the promises of God and successfully take the territory, defend the territory and prosper in the territory. You see Joshua and Caleb saw giants, but refused to make giants sovereign and the decision-makers over their destiny and inheritance. This is why Numbers 14 is so powerful and drops a plumb line when it comes to obedience, vision, walking by the covenant, walking in a surrendered heart posture, because the ten spies that opposed them essentially said the giants determine our future, the giants determine whether we enter; the giants determine whether we fight for the land. Their mere presence in the land is the deciding factor that will cause us to relinquish our covenant birthright. Joshua and Caleb said God determines our future, our position, our territory, our steps, our plans, our purposes. God determines it, not the circumstances. That was the difference between Caleb and Joshua and their heart posture and the heart posture of the ten other spies. That's the difference between doubt, fear and faith. Fear says look at the size of the obstacle. Fear actually amplifies the obstacle that makes it far stronger and more established than it truly is. Faith says, look at the size of the God who gave the promise; the obstacle does not stop what He has ordained. Now notice Joshua and Caleb didn't deny reality and what they faced in the land. They weren't denying what they were going to face when they entered the Promised Land. They denied reality's authority over God's Word and His decision from His court that the covenant had jurisdiction over what occupied the land. So they denied the authority that the reality wanted to have in that moment. So they put God's Word over the reality that they were facing. That's faith. That is where we're going in this season.

That's where we're headed. This is why surrender and consecration is so important. God has a plan. We need to trust Him in that. God has a plan for this nation. Yes. We see there are boasting giants rising in the land. We see what's occupying the land. However, God's authority, plans, purposes, jurisdiction, and decisions far outweigh what the enemy has mobilized, the obstacles, what's rising in the nation, the threats, and what's roaming in the territory. Going into this battle, going into this season, there is a great deliverance and transition in order for inheritance to come. We have to decide whether we're going to be Joshua and Caleb. We have to decide whether we are going to choose to see with the vision from Heaven's perspective, the landscape of the land and understand that Almighty God has already given the victory if we will only step into the lane of it. And we will walk with the Lord in it, let Him order it, and come before Him day after day, surrendering our heart posture, surrendering our lives, surrendering what we think is best, and allowing the Lord to truly compel us in this season. He's compelling you out of the wilderness. He's compelling you out of Egypt. That long season that you've gotten used to carrying what's heavy and what's burdensome and what's hard and what's tiring and what's exhausting and you've learned to do it and you've disciplined yourself to do it and you've done it day in and day out. But you can't stay in the wilderness forever because the generation that did died there. You're entering the threshold of this powerful new season of transition, change, inheritance, and true deliverance from all that heaviness you have carried and all the pain you have dealt with day in and day out because of what's happened in this season. The Lord wants to deliver you and then establish you in the land right now. This is the season that we are coming into as the people of God, and it is going to be one of the most defining moments of our lives. It is that serious of a season - one of the most defining moments of our lives. And that's why you feel the pressure and that's why you're tired and that's why you feel the heaviness pushing in more. This is why: because you are at the threshold and the precipice of the breakthrough, and the enemy knows it. He knows you're about to break the threshold. He knows these things are coming. He's trying to make you antsy. He's trying to make you jump the gun with the Lord. He's trying to get you not to finish the refinement you're about to finish, so you won't enter the deliverance and transition into the inheritance and actually possess all the promises that God has laid up for you, what He has ordained for you. I'm serious.

This is one of the most defining moments of your life that is going to pivot you and reposition you into God's purposes that He has ordained for you since you were born. This last season has been so difficult, and don't get me wrong: You've grown in it. You have grown tremendously. That was allowed by God's design to now prepare you to now possess what He's about to give you. You've grown in it. But it took a toll. It took a toll on you. And it took a toll on your heart and it took a toll on your mind emotionally. I'm talking emotionally. And, like a soldier, you've learned You've learned to equip yourself and you've learned to move your emotions out of the way and you've learned in survival mode to keep going and to persevere because your obedience to the Lord means more to you than caving in to the harsh conditions of the wilderness because people that aren't in the right heart posture end up caving in the wilderness. They end up caving to those harsh conditions of the wilderness because it truly reveals what they're made of. And it either makes them or breaks them. It made Joshua and Caleb. It broke an entire generation. Think about that. That's what the wilderness is meant to do. It's meant to be a dividing line and a plumb line to either make you or break you to either equip you and sharpen you and fashion you and grow you and get you ready to break the threshold of that new territory. Or it's going to completely break you and destroy your life because you operated in nothing but doubt, unbelief, bitterness, rebellion, combativeness, hostility, and you hardened your heart. See, the wilderness for people that are being refined, it softens their heart. It softens their hearts even in the middle of carrying the heaviness. It softens their heart to the things of God. Those that operate like Korah and that generation, it hardens their hearts until it destroys everything around them. And that's when the Lord says that they will not enter my rest. They will not enter these promises. They will not enter that land. They are not going with Joshua and Caleb, because Joshua and Caleb have a different spirit and have been equipped, refined, and surrendered to Me in order to be filled with My Spirit, have a clean heart created in them, and have the vision that only Heaven could give, because they are ready to go in and take the land. That's the season. We are entering. This is it.

This is such a powerful season of transition and change for the people of God. And let me tell you some of the changes that you're going to have to make are going to feel foreign to you. It's not going to be the norm for you. It's not going to be how you're used to operating because you've been operating and growing in the wilderness. So you have a certain mindset. You have a certain heart posture. It's going to feel foreign to you, but it is meant to soften you and sensitize you to the greater things of God. So you can hear his instruction clearly when you walk into that inheritance and that promise and take the land. Even in some of your lives, there's been a delay right now. There has been a delay in things you wanted to do, places you wanted to move, where you wanted to go. And you know what? God is in the delay. It's not always the enemy. We want to blame the enemy immediately and start rebuking him. And I think sometimes when we do that, he goes, I didn't do that. I really do. I think that wasn't me this time. I'm not getting blamed for this. But there's the enemy kind of delay, and then there's the God kind of delay, because He's positioning you and readying you. And then you go in and break the threshold of that land. You actually possess it. You receive the inheritance. You steward it well. You know how to fight the battles. You have the strategy. You understand the landscape. You are filled with the faith that only comes from God to do it. And God has delayed it. And He's delayed it for good reason. And as you enter now, this period of deliverance and transition, it is going to be made very clear to you from Almighty God. Why the delay? Because some of you have been getting frustrated with it. Do not be frustrated, because it is coming from Almighty God. Discern it. Recognize the moment and the hour. And discern it, because He's delaying to position you. You're about to transition. He's delaying to position you because you're about to transition into the fullness of what you've been called to do fashioned in the wilderness, refined, equipped, grown, chastised by the Lord, redirected, you know, rooted. All those things.

You're coming into one of the greatest seasons of your lives. As the world is shaking, you have to understand something Almighty God is not subject to the world. And if our citizenship is in heaven, which it is, that means our circumstances should not necessarily be dictated by what's happening in the world either. What do I mean by that? Well, the world could be shaking, right? But the people of God could be prospering. They're not synonymous. The world may shake right now. And it is. And there is a great shaking going on. However, Almighty God is not subject to the systems, governments, banking establishments of this world. He is not subject to the financial institutions and systems of this world. He is far above it, which means if He's far above it, that means we aren't always subject to what's happening in the world, because God supersedes that. God is far above that. God can circumvent that. And so as the world shakes in this season, the people of God are going to enter one of the greatest seasons in their lives. And yes, it's going to be part of it. It's going to be a sifting. It's going to be partly painful, because now what can't enter with you has to go. There's a sifting happening. There are things that can't go with you. There are things that can't enter with you. And there's a plumb line in a dividing line being dropped. And when things have to break away and be broken off of your life and removed, it can be painful, but it's not meant to hurt you. It is meant to free you in this season. And in this time, it's meant to deliver you. It's meant to reposition you. It is meant to give you joy - joy unspeakable. Weeping may endure for a night, but "Joy cometh in the morning," says the Lord. It's that joy that's coming. What has to break away, what has to change, what has to be transitioned, and what has to be repositioned and removed - in our humanness, it may hurt for a moment. But then comes the joy. Then comes the inheritance. Then you realize why it couldn't go, why that was broken off, why that was left in the wilderness, why that's not entering the inheritance with you, and why that's not entering the new territory and the new land with you. You begin to realize when you align with Almighty God, He begins to reveal unto you why it's necessary.

It's a necessary part of this process. And I'm telling you, the administration is going through this too. It has just started with the Trump administration. It has just started because we're transitioning into this season. There are people who can't go. There are people who can't continue in the administration. There are people that are not equipped for what's coming ahead because the Joshuas and Calebs are on the rise. The Joshuas and Calebs are being called in. The Joshuas and Calebs have been positioned. The Joshuas and Calebs hear the Lord and have a different spirit and they have been repositioned and repurposed and refined with the vision that doesn't come from the nearsightedness of the flesh. Their vision comes from the infinite perspective of an all-powerful, Almighty, everlasting God who is already in the future, speaking to us in the present and navigating us through. This is the hour that the Joshuas and Calebs are coming in to lead. This is the hour they were equipped for even in 2028. This is the hour. This is the time. This is the season. Because there are giants rising in the land. Moses is not equipped to deal with the giants. He's equipped to deal with the wilderness. Joshua and Caleb have been equipped to deal with the boasting, wicked, corrupt, nonsensical, greedy giants in the land. They are already refined. They have been given certain giftings. They have been given certain weaponry. They have been given certain skills. They have been given a different heart posture. They have been given a different mindset, to view it from a position and jurisdiction of covenant. This is where we have to be. We have to be surrendered now, consecrated and set apart to move into this, because this is going to be, for many of you, one of the most incredible seasons of your life - where you will see the goodness of God in the land of the living and look back on that wilderness season.

And you will give glory to God for that refinement, but you are going to praise God even more that you've now walked into the position of possessor - of the inheritance, of the land, of the position. This is the time that God is raising up in you, if you will only let Him, a desire for the greater things that He has for you. You see, Joshua and Caleb didn't settle. The ten spies wanted to settle: "Let's just stay in the wilderness. You know what? We're prospering here. We're provided for here. Yeah, it's not ideal, but let's just stay here because we're used to it and we're comfortable and we don't want to persevere." That's what they did. Joshua and Caleb saw beyond that. It wasn't, "Let's just stay here." It was, "We can't stay here because God will no longer be here." You see, that's the mindset we have to have. We can't stay here because God will no longer dwell here. He is moving into the land with us. He is moving into that covenant area with us. He is moving into the inheritance with us. God wasn't going to stay in the wilderness anymore. He was on the move and Joshua and Caleb knew it and they caught the vision and they understood that in order to prosper, they had to move where God was. Some of you want to stay in your old season and God is moving out of it and God's no longer in it because He's moving into something so much greater, and He's compelling you to catch the vision and follow after Him with a pursuit, a surrender, a holiness, and a hunger for what He has for you - a hunger for these things. That's what we have to be doing in this hour in this moment because this is going to be one of the most consequential seasons of your lives. This is going to be incredibly consequential for the Trump administration and for the preparation for 2028 as well. Watch what happens. Watch the plumb line that gets dropped. Watch the people that are exiting because the room needs to be made now for the Joshuas and Calebs to be positioned to deal with the covenant battle because this land was rededicated to Almighty God. And after it was rededicated, that's when you saw the giants really begin to rise. So we are transitioning from wilderness into a covenant battle and a victory. Joshua and Caleb didn't go in to lose. They went in from the position of, "We already have victory. We just have to go get it. We already have the victory. We just have to go take it now." That's the season. That's the vision you have to catch. That's what you have to align with in this time. It's an incredible season of deliverance and transition.

And not all of it is going to make sense to people. And a lot of it won't make sense to you initially, but you know what? Faith is not understanding every piece. Faith is saying, "I don't have to understand, God, but You do, and I trust You." So I'm aligning with You, and I'm going where You need me to go. That's faith. And I felt that in my spirit. When that just left my mouth - praise the Lord - that is where we need to align. So get ready now. Get ready for this season now that you're entering. We're exiting out of the old. We're exiting out of that long refining season. We're exiting out of that. And now we're breaking the threshold, coming into inheritance, possessing, standing, and defending what God has already given us - standing and fighting those battles to take hold of it. Take authority. Take dominion over it. All glory be to God. Praise the Lord. I could keep preaching in all honesty. I could keep going on this because I feel the presence of the Lord. But we need to understand that position. You see, one of the greatest advantages you have in a battle is if you understand the position you're in, the position the enemy is in and the strategy that defeats the enemy. And that comes from Almighty God. So we need to understand that strategy right now and the strategic position we are in and we need to take advantage of it. And we really need to pursue God in holiness, in surrender, in what He needs us to do, in allowing Him to remove what needs to be removed because we're about to break the threshold here. And if we truly trust the Lord, then He knows what should be in our life and what shouldn't be. He knows what aligns and what doesn't. And we have to give Him the jurisdiction in order to put it in the order that it needs to be for you to now take the authority in that land. Praise the Lord. Praise the Lord. We fight from a position of victory. Yes, we do. Yes, we do. Praise the Lord. Praise the Lord.

Okay, Toby. Let's give you an update on Toby. As we're winding this down, here's Toby. He came home this afternoon. What we did was to make him more comfortable. We spoke to the doctor. We put a T-shirt on him. We're getting a better one tomorrow that's being delivered, but we got a tank top. We tied it and made it very comfortable for him, and covered his incision. So he's protected and he's very groggy. He is on two different pain medications right now. I have to thank Guardian Veterinary Specialists in Brewster, New York, who did the surgery. They did a phenomenal job. You have to see how well they sewed up Toby. I can't even believe the job that they did. And he just came home, you know, really like a champ. And he came through this like a champ and they got the whole tumor. All glory be to God. They said the tumor was enormous. They did get the tumor, but they had to remove the bottom lobe of his lung. So Toby ended up losing the bottom lobe of his lung in order to save him. And in order to get that tumor out, they said he can function perfectly fine without it. And so they took what they had to take, and no more. And all glory be to God. Amazing surgery team there. And we thank you for your prayers, your help, and your assistance. You can go to arkofgrace.org if you would like to help with that. We're going to talk about some other things on our website. We're going to talk about some other things on arkofgrace.org in just a few minutes here.

Also, we have a cat that needs a home. If you are in or near Rockford, Illinois, there is this beautiful cat named Norman, who is five years old, a domestic longhair. He desperately needs a home. So he is affectionate and he's playful. He's not aggressive with dogs. He's just a little shy, which could be overcome very easily. And he's a single cat. So if you are looking at getting a cat, Norman would be wonderful for you. If you know somebody who could take Norman, perhaps someone who lives in a nearby state, please text Destiny at 779-207-5296. We would love to see Norman get a home. Also, we're going to put up our prayer journal. So I created with the help of Almighty God, a seven-day prayer devotional called Draw Near. It is meant in seven days to get you in the habit and draw you deeper into prayer with the Lord. Maybe you want to do that and you don't know where to start. Maybe you've said, "I really want to go deeper, but I'm not sure how." This, over a seven-day period, is meant to get you into the habit every day of praying and speaking with your Father in Heaven and into that discipline. That discipline of prayer and the Word is so important. So if you want it, here's how you can get it. If you go to arkofgrace.org, click the blue button that says, "Get the Prayer Journal Here." If you get it there, it is a download. It will pop up for you to download so you have it on your phone and on your computer. So you can take it with you wherever you go. Click to get the download and you can get the prayer journal. When you do that, it will download and you will be able to save it. If you have any issues with it, email us at hello@arkofgrace-ministries.com. And we will gladly assist you with it. But we are looking into doing a weekly one. So we are beginning to plan this. We will let you know when we have that available for all of you. But we know people want to get into the deeper habit and discipline of prayer with the Lord. This is meant to do that with you over a seven-day period. My husband, Chris Wagner, must be in the chat because people are saying his name in the chat. He must be watching. Okay, so thank you to everyone who's gotten it so far. We are working on expanding that now for all of you because we've had such an overwhelming response to it.

Also, we're going to put up just a couple of sponsors here. We're going to put up MyPillow. This is Duchess, one of our pigs at our sanctuary on one of the MyPillow dog beds. They make not only an amazing dog bed but a plethora of incredible products, not only pillows, but sheets and towels. They make pet beds. They make coffee too. I believe they have coffee as well. They have amazing slippers. You can use promo code ARC to save quite a bit on your MyPillow order. It makes a great gift. We're coming into that season of gift-giving, and be a blessing to Mike Lindell, running for governor of Minnesota. So you could go to arkofgrace.org/ministry-partners. Click on MyPillow and use promo code ARC. Also, we have Century H2O. In an age where we see nations like Iran attempting to attack water systems in different states in this nation and carry out cyberattacks and things of that nature, Century H2O is a five-stage water treatment system. They have them for under the sink. They have them for your entire home. They now have an attachable one for your hose in order to give your livestock and your animals filtered water. It does remove harmful toxins. It increases pH. It is a very easy installation and their filter lasts about a year. It's great for apartments. It's great for RVs. It's great for whole homes. And so, if you would like to get water that is filtered and that you could feel good about drinking, not only for you but for your pets, you can go to arkofgrace.org/ministry-partners. Click on Century H2O and use promo code GRACE10 for a 10% discount. Water. Let me tell you, I've learned this with animals too. Clean water is very important to them. Incredibly important, not only for us, but for them.

And that is all we have for this evening. We're going to land the plane and wind it down. I will be back on live on Tuesday. Now, if something happens because we're entering a stretch here where anything can happen, we will announce and I will do an emergency live. But I will be back on live on Tuesday. We'll be on the cusp of 9/11 at that point. I'm going to be praying and seeking the Lord about what to speak on that day. But I'm going to be ready because we are coming into a highly critical window and we're also entering the year 5787. So we want to encourage you in the Word as we close: armor up according to Ephesians chapter 6. And Psalm 91. I say it every single day. I encourage you to say it every single day. Also, Psalms [unclear list: "1, 23, 34, 50, 35, and 51"], which has, "Create in me a clean heart, O God." I say that Psalm a lot. Ephesians 1:16-20 and [chapter unclear]:14-19 from The Believer's Authority. I say that every single day. I just quote those scriptures every evening before bed, as well as the Lord's Prayer in Matthew 6. I speak that every day as well. We have Hebrews 11 up there, also Hebrews chapters 3 and 4 and Numbers 13 and 14. Please go read them after tonight. We always want to encourage you in the Word as we close. So thank you to our moderators, our Ark of Grace team. Thank you to everyone who tuned in tonight. Thank you for all of your prayers for Toby. We will continue to give you updates and we do have a video of his homecoming that our social media team is working very hard on that we will be releasing soon on our platforms. Have a wonderful evening. We love you. Keep the faith and we'll see you live on Tuesday.
