“Now after the death of Joshua it came to pass, that the children of Israel asked the LORD, saying, Who shall go up for us against the Canaanites first, to fight against them?”
Judges 1:1 KJV
After Joshua died, the twelve tribal leaders consulted Yahweh for a prophetic sign and asked, “Which tribe do you choose to be the first to lead the attack against the Canaanites?” They presented themselves at Shiloh where the tabernacle was and where Phineas was the high priest (Aaron, the first high priest’s grandson), and who wore the Urim (meaning “lights”) and the Thummim (meaning “perfections”) on his breastplate. It is always wise to seek the Lord before we step out into a new chapter of our lives. Through Jesus’s finished work on the Cross, the Holy Spirit came to dwell in us. Today we seek the Word and the Holy Spirit in us to receive guidance in our lives to take the next step. Our God answers prayers as we acknowledge Him in all our ways and He directs our path. Hallelujah!
