Joshua chapter 3, verse 5.

Then Joshua said to the people,

consecrate yourselves,

for tomorrow the Lord will do wonders among you.

I love that verse.

There's obviously a clear, specific context historically behind this verse.

God is about to move in a powerful way among his people and lead them into the

promised land across the Jordan River. But I love the exhortation in preparation for

that. Consecrate yourselves. Consecrate yourselves. Like, remember, that's a picture of setting

yourselves apart and examine your hearts. Be holy before God. Why? Because tomorrow the

Lord will do wonders among you. Like get ready for God to work among you. Don't you want to live that

way? I want to live that way. I want to live that way every day. I want to live that way every morning. I want to wake up and consecrate myself to go before the Lord and God purify me. God sanctify me. I want to see you work in powerful ways all day today. And so you consecrate yourself toward that end. We continually do this. God, set me apart. Make me holy.

I pray this for my life. I pray this in my family. The church, God, we want to see wonders.

We want to see you work in power in our family. We want to see you work in power in our church.

So we consecrate ourselves. Oh, we set ourselves apart. We want to see demonstrations of your

glory. And then I, I'm so burdened today when it comes to the unreached of the day,

this Joshua Project app, and I open it up and I see the Turks in Turkey.

So the Turkish people, 56.4 million of them.

Hardly any followers of Jesus.

Like the percentage that's on here is 0.00.

I know there are a few Turkish believers.
