  • Lead Like Joshua, Part 2: Spiritual Warfare
    Dec 19 2025

    Leadership is warfare—and every battle is about inheritance. In Part 2 of our Joshua series, we move from theory to the field. We confront Amalek, expose compromise, and align under the Captain of the Lord’s Host. Presence-led beats personality-led. If you’re ready to fight smart, win clean, and take territory, this episode gives you the plan.

    What you’ll learn in Part 2:

    • Why opposition often confirms your assignment—and how to fight the right battles
    • How jealousy for God’s honor sharpens your leadership decisions
    • The power of being overshadowed by the Captain—leading from Presence, not ego
    • From Joshua to Jesus: how true rest and inheritance are fulfilled in Christ
    • How to activate latent leadership in critical moments
    • Moving from the border to breakthrough: sight, steps, and stakes

    Actionable takeaways:

    • Identify your “Amalek” (the pattern that attacks your forward motion) and set a daily battle rhythm (Word, prayer, action)
    • Ask two brothers to cover you in prayer for 30 days as you take new ground
    • Audit your atmosphere: what will you sanctify, stop, and start this week?
    • Consecrate decisions: “Captain, what are Your orders?” Obey the first clear step
    • Replace “what if” with “even if”—then take a 24-hour action toward your next milestone
    • Keep your sword sharp: memorize one battle verse per week for the next four weeks

    This is your call-up: lead with holy aggression and humble dependence. Take your orders. Take your ground. Lead. Fight. Win.

  • Lead Like Joshua, Part 1: The Shift Every Man Must Make
    Dec 5 2025

    What you’ll learn in Part 1:

    • The difference between salvation from and salvation unto—and why your calling demands both
    • How Joshua models Kingdom leadership that moves men from wandering to winning
    • Why preparation in the wilderness is non‑negotiable for spiritual authority
    • The “secret history with God” that makes a man unshakeable
    • Practical steps to identify and claim the next territory God is entrusting to you

    Actionable takeaways:

    • Define one territory you will take in the next 30 days (home, habits, health, finance, calling)
    • Establish a non‑negotiable daily meeting with God (time, place, plan)
    • Choose one comfort to lay down for 30 days as wilderness training for your will
    • Journal this prompt: “When God tests me, He’s trusting me with more—what is He trusting me with now?”

    This episode is for Kingdom-driven men ready to lead with courage, obedience, and clarity—at home, in the marketplace, and in the church. Be strong and courageous. It’s time to step into your inheritance.
