In the final sermon of our New Horizons series, we looked at Joshua 14 and the story of Caleb, a man who wholly followed the Lord. Caleb’s story of conquering his mountain serves as an example for us as we face the mountains in our lives. How do we remain faithful when faced with daunting circumstances in our lives? Like Caleb, we are to first claim our mountain; accepting our circumstances and taking responsibility for it. Then we are to commit our mountain to God; acknowledging that it is only by His will and His power that we are able to overcome. Finally, we are to do our part and conquer our mountain, for faith without works is dead. As we enter the New Year, mountains can come looming on the horizons, but our faithfulness to God will determine the outcome of the journey. Whatever circumstances come your way, take heart, Christ has overcome the world! (John 16:33)
