In Joshua Chapter 7, I read from verse 1. The tragedy of stealing and I want you to listen very very carefully, this will throw some light into why some loose their blessing very quickly and why some blessing don't last in the hands of many.

Joshua 7 I read from verse 1 " But the children of Isreal committed a trespass in the accursed thing: for Achan, the son of Carmi, the son of Zabdi, the son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah, took of the accursed thing: and the anger of the LORD was kindled against the children of Isreal."

Somebody has taken something and because of that stealing, there was anger against God's people.

Verse 2 " And Joshua sent men from Jericho to Air, which is beside Bethaven, on the east side of Bethel, and spake unto them, saying, Go up and view Ai.
And they returned to Joshua, and said unto him, Let not all the people go up; but let about two or three thousand men go up and smite Ai; and make not all the people to labour thither; for they are but few."

Ai was completely undervalued and underated, they have defeated greater enemy than this before.

Verse 4 " So there went up thither of the people about three thousand men: and they fled before the men of Ai.
And the men of Ai smote of them about thirty and six men: for they chased them before the gate even unto Shebarim, and smote them in the going down: wherefore the hearts of the people melted, and became as water."

Simply because somebody stole, then Joshua began to pray to know why they were defeated.

Verse 11 " Isreal hath sinned, and they have also transgressed my covenant which I commanded them: for they have even taken of the accursed thing, and have also stolen, and dissembled also, and they have put it even among their own stuff.
Therefore the children of Isreal could not stand before their enemies, but turned their backs before their enemies, because they were accursed: neither will be with you any more, except ye destroy the accursed from among you."

Until they brought out Achan and destroyed Achan the anger of God was upon them.

Habakkuk Chapter 2, you find Habakkuk in the old testament after Nahum.
Habakkuk Chapter 2 verse 6 " Shall not all these take up a parable against him, and a taunting proverb against him, and say, WOE TO HIM THAT INCREASETH THAT WHICH IS NOT HIS! how long? and to him that ladeth himself with thick clay! "



What does it mean to steal?

To steal mean to take something without right, without permission which does not belong to you, you take something without right, without permission that which belong to another.
Those things you took could be things, it could be money. Say things, money.

Ask him to forgive you in areas where you know you have accumulated or you have envied or you have tried to gather what does not belong to you.

Ask him to forgive you.

It is important to do those one seriously, so that when we begin to pray on what it has brought to our lives.

Then you will know what to do.

Are you a Lady here?
and right now, you are still living in fornication,
you are allowing your virtues to be stolen,
you better get on your knees where you are and ask for forgiveness.

You never can tell what you have lost.

You need to cry to the Lord for help.

Jesus here, He is able to deliver to the uttermost.



(Song)

Change my heart O God.
Change my heart O God
Make it ever new
Change my heart O God
May I be like you.


If you have been inflating prices for your place of work,
and you go behind the back to get settlement.
It is stealing.

It will backfire, not only on you but children children,
that is why the Bible says

THOU SHALL NOT STEAL.

Thank you Lord, Thank you Lord.

Rise up on your feet now and raise up your voice as you praise this.

My father Have mercy on me and change my life.

In Jesus Name.
