On the verge of a fulfilled blessing

The children of Israel were right there on the borders of their promise, the land that God was going to give them.  The day of their promise had finally arrived.  There were no more wilderness journeys to endure, nor was there anymore waiting for what God had promised the people of Israel.  The view of the promise land was right there ahead of them, close within their grasp.  Spies sent into the country had confirmed what God had described.  It was a land flowing with milk and honey.  The men brought back pomegranates, figs, and even a cluster of grapes that required the work of two men.  God was about to bless them with their own land that would exceed their own expectation.  How many Christians today are within an arm’s length grasp of something that God has promised?  That blessing that you have journeyed and endured the strain of battle in an effort to receive?  Many of you are on the verge of your own personal blessing from God.  You are right there and you can sense that God is about to fulfill it.  The promise that God made, the one thing you have waited for, is just about to be within reach.
