Judges 11:24
WHATEVER THE LORD OUR GOD HAS GIVEN US, WE WILL POSSESS
I shall never forget the days I worked in Radio Rhema. Particularly the years '88 - '91.
It seemed as if satan knew that Radio Rhema was destined to expand and if he didn't get in quick he would lose everything. It was almost as if all hell broke loose. He knew that if he 'broke' the tender shoot it would die, but he'd have real trouble if it ever got to be a tree. Today Rhema is a very big tree with branches in Europe, Australia and the Pacific Islands, but there was a time when it could have been broken and stilted.
First, the founder-president died of cancer; then the government decided 'we' would have to tender for all our licences and the probability, in the natural, was that that would be the end of our broadcasting days - being 'just' a faith ministry relying totally on free-will donations and subscriptions; then, 'we' were so short of funds we were to have our broadcasting landlines cut which would mean we could not broadcast to anyone anyway. I remember vividly the warfare.
But I remember too, our "authority in Christ Jesus". Just as Jephthah said to his enemies "Whatever the Lord our God has given us, we will possess", we told our enemy "we will continue to broadcast! We will broadcast in..." and we would mention all the sites we knew of! We also proclaimed, "We will broadcast the Gospel of Jesus Christ so that every man, woman and child of this nation knows that Jesus Christ is Lord, their Saviour and Redeemer, and coming King. Oh, and by the way, - there will be a second network to reach the youth of this nation!"
When we started we only had four stations on air. At the end of 1991 there were 13! Soon that rose to 40! The elements of the second network are in place. The possession is happening!
What about our lives? Have you taken possession? Take with both hands all that God has given! And hey, why not ask for more? Be like Caleb's daughter! She was given land and went back to ask for springs of water too!
