Hello, thank you so much for joining me today for Give Him 15.

And the title of our post today is Transitional Moments.

As I begin my R&R today, you are going to be blessed by my friend Gene Bailey,

whom you know from his very significant program on the Victory Network,

Flashpoint. I don't have to tell you that Gene is making a huge impact in our nation,

and it is a true honor to have him fill in for me today.

Thank you, Gene.

Hello, I'm Gene Bailey, and I'm honored.

I'm truly honored that Dutch and Cece asked me to fill in for Dutch today.

Thank you for joining me.

You know, in thinking and praying about this post,

I was reminded of something I wrote a while back about transitional moments in this book, Flashpoint of Revival.

And truly, right now, this nation is certainly in a transitional moment. We want to see a turnaround in our leaders, yes, but I believe

you and I are also in a transition. Let's look at the first chapter of Joshua. What does it say?

Moses, my servant, is dead. Therefore, the time has come for you to lead these people, the Israelites,

across the Jordan River, into the land I'm giving them. That's Joshua 1-2.

Imagine how Joshua must have felt when God spoke these words to him. He'd walked closely and

faithfully with Moses for years. He'd witnessed miracles by Moses' hand and had watched him struggle through periods of sin.

He was well acquainted with the quirks of the Israelites and had seen Moses intercede for them.

And then one day, out of nowhere, it happened.

Moses was dead.

Joshua's first thoughts must have been, Moses is dead? I'm in charge.
