Caleb drove thence the three son's of Anak.....
Joshua 15:14


How the Lord longs for spiritually mature young men and young women today! Men and women strong in heart, strong in character, strong in purity.

Do you want to know the secret of a strong life? Here it is. Caleb wholly followed the Lord and so could say, "I am as strong this day as I was when Moses sent me" At 85 years of age Caleb could "go out" and "come in" to war.
It is also recorded that "Caleb drove thence the three sons of Anak" These three sons of the giant (Goliath also a brother) may well be said to represent all that is opposed to "the love of the father" What John the Apostle calls "the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life"

Moral decay and delinquency worldwide is threatening civilsation its'self. Worse than that, this condition of things is making its incursion into the church.

This giant of worldy perversions, "the lust of the flesh", is forcing his way into the very lives of Christian young men and women. Caleb conquered this by the power of a faithful life of surrender.

The second giant I call worldly pleasure "the lust of the eyes". The world has gone mad after pleasure; and young people are being caught up into the vortex of materialism and worldliness. How can they be delivered? Caleb overcame because he wholly followed the LOrd.

He defeated also the biggest of the giants, worldly prominence, "the pride of life". That jealous self life which asserts its-self and likes to be paraded and publicised inside and outside the Church. Do you know victory over this giant? Caleb did because he followed faithfully the LOrd his God.
