1 That night all the people of the community raised
their voices and wept aloud. 2 All the Israelites
grumbled against Moses and Aaron, and the whole
assembly said to them, "If only we had died in Egypt!
Or in this desert! 3 Why is the LORD bringing us to
this land only to let us fall by the sword? Our wives
and children will be taken as plunder. Wouldn't it be
better for us to go back to Egypt?" 4 And they said to
each other, "We should choose a leader and go back to
Egypt."
5 Then Moses and Aaron fell facedown in front of the
whole Israelite assembly gathered there.
6 Joshua son of Nun and Caleb son of Jephunneh, who
were among those who had explored the land, tore their
clothes 7 and said to the entire Israelite assembly,
"The land we passed through and explored is
exceedingly good. 8 If the LORD is pleased with us, he
will lead us into that land, a land flowing with milk
and honey, and will give it to us. 9 Only do not rebel
against the LORD. And do not be afraid of the people
of the land, because we will swallow them up. Their
protection is gone, but the LORD is with us. Do not be
afraid of them."
Mahalo Nui Loa for your time!
Joshua 1:5-7
5 No one will be able to stand up against you all the
days of your life. As I was with Moses, so I will be
with you; I will never leave you nor forsake you.
6 "Be strong and courageous, because you will lead
these people to inherit the land I swore to their
forefathers to give them. 7 Be strong and very
courageous. Be careful to obey all the law my servant
Moses gave you; do not turn from it to the right or to
the left, that you may be successful wherever you go.
Aloha Billy,
Mahalo so very much for your servant hood. And thank
you for God's word to us, I also read Joshua and how
the Lord kept telling hi m to not fear, but be
courageous, for the Lord is with him where ever he
goes. And I too believe that the Lord has mighty plans
for us at Aloha. Whose report will we believe, we
will believe in the report of the Lord. Thank you
Billy for being an encourager t the Christians as well
as the none Christians. You are doing God's mighty
work at Aloha and He is well pleased. I will miss once
again the next Lifting Aloha. I am returning to work
and that will be my first flight. But please know that
I never stop praying for Aloha and our people. From
Exec's to contract services.
God's word goes out forth and does not return void but
accomplishes everything it says........
Lifting Aloha with you my brother,
Na'i
Yes, thank you Billy, for the reminder that we are His and are called
to do his good works. We will do what we do best...sharing the love of Jesus through our
spirit and actions.

Dear Billy,
Thank you for sharing our Lord's awesome Word! It so true and we will claim that! Yes, our gracious Lord has called us to be warriors in His mighty Word. We will continue to pray and do the works He has called us to do. We shall stand firm in our Faith through the power of His Holy Spirit.
Thank you for the courageous works you & the rest of our prayers warriors do. Our wonderful Jesus has set the path for us at Aloha and we shall continue to seek His will and walk in it. Sharing such powerful scripture continues to encourage us and I truly appreciate it. No matter what obstacles that come before us, our Lord Jesus will help us overcome them.
"May our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God our Father, who loved us and by his grace gave us eternal encouragement and good hope, encourage your hearts and strengthen you in every good deed and word." 2 Thessalonians 2:16-17
Looking forward to seeing you all at the next "Lifting of Aloha".
In His Mercy & Grace,
Crissie
