Every commandment which I command you today you must be careful to observe, that you may love and multiply, and go in and possess the land of which the Lord swore to your fathers. And you shall remember that the Lord your God led all these forty years in the wilderness, to humble you and test you, to know what was in your heart, whether you would keep His commandments or not.” (Duet 8:1,2). This was the charge the Lord gave His people when the time had come for them to go in and occupy the promise He had given 470 years prior to Abraham. In every new, historical season in church history, the Lord renews His vision, call and propose to His Body. We are just maturing in that season of God. Therefore, He is saying the time has come for My people to enter into the promises I have released in the past season in their territories. These are promises that were never brought into completion by the previous generations. We find scriptural precedent signifying that at every time of historical change and “entering in” the Lord does the following:

• Releases new authority.
• Commissions new leadership.
• Causes a people to desire a new level of His Holiness.
• Communicates new strategies for victory.
• Transfers the power to gain wealth for His covenant Kingdom purposes to be established.

The Transference of Wealth. In Deuteronomy 8:18 we find: “And you shall remember the Lord your God, for it is He who gives you power to get wealth that He may establish His covenant which He swore to your fathers.” He spoke this to them as He prepared a people to get ready to go into the land He promised. He knew they would be in spiritual war with the god of Mammon. When you study Canaanite history, you find that the ruling god of the Canaanites was Mammon. You also find the Lord waited 470 years for a corporate people that could go into the covenant boundaries. Now here is a generation that He is releasing to appropriate all the promises He had spoken. The assignment of mission that Joshua and the tribes of Israel had to accomplish was transference of the wealth from all of the inhabitants of that region into God’s covenant, Kingdom plan. Therefore, the god of Mammon had to be defeated and the wealth held by its false worship transferred.

I keep hearing a word for each of us at a time: “Launch Out!” The word “launch” means to hurl, discharge, or send off; to send forth with force; to set in operation; to start on a new course, career or enterprise; to throw oneself (into) with vigor. Fishermen would take a circular net with weights and cast it out on the water. It would then sink into the water, a drawstring would be pulled, and the catch brought in. In Luke 5, Peter had been doing this all night and brought in nothing. Therefore he was exhausted, frustrated and really did not know what the next move should be. Jesus then gives him direction that is contrary to his thinking. He said, “Launch out and go deeper!” Peter displayed his doubt that Jesus really could understand his daily situation and the method of gaining the supply he needed. However, when he obeyed Jesus’ worked, he brought in an overwhelming catch that not only supplied his but his partners’ need. The miracle overcame the doubt. Then the Lord said, now go forth and catch men (mankind). After this demonstration, the disciples went forth evangelizing. The Lord wants to do the miraculous in our everyday life. This will cause supply to be released that will meet our needs. But the real issue is that this will cause faith to be released that will propel us forward to achieve God’s Kingdom purpose in our regions. Get ready to be launched into a NEW dimension as we pray for the release of harvest that has been held up on the last season by the Body of Christ.
