Do not choose your own leader

“Then they plotted among themselves, “Let’s choose a new leader and go back to Egypt!””
‭‭Numbers‬ ‭14:4‬ ‭NLT‬‬

The background to this scene is after the twelve spies had come back from scouting the promise land. The ten spies or leaders of the ten tribes had given a bad report. Therefore, they instilled fear among the people and they were conspiring to go back to Egypt by abandoning Moses. It really meant they were going to abandon God.

The promise land represented a new level and season with a higher level of blessing. But in order to obtain this blessing, they had obstacles. These obstacles were the giants who were in the land. The giants appeared like impossible mountains to them.

As God wants to take us to a new level of anointing and blessings, your old demons will come back. These demons are plotting to convince you to go back to Egypt. They want you to pick leader and go back to Egypt. Picking your own leader is to pick your own church that is easier and another pastor that will give you an easier gospel. Going back to Egypt is going back to your old ways, habits, problems, addictions, depression, chaos, and sin. It is no longer walking with the Lord.

You must choose to fight and overcome these old demons. Conquer and possess the new land! Awaken and move forward. Circumcise that heart of yours and endure for His Glory! I know some of you are tired. You are a soldier for God. Much is at stake. No turning back. Arise and shine!
