9 For the Canaanites and all the inhabitants of the land will hear of it and will surround us and cut off our name from the earth. And what will You do for Your great name?

13 When Joshua was by Jericho, he looked up, and behold, a Man stood near him with His drawn sword in His hand. And Joshua went to Him and said to Him, Are you for us or for our adversaries?
14 And He said, No [neither], but as Prince of the Lord's host have I now come. And Joshua fell on his face to the earth and worshiped, and said to Him, What says my Lord to His servant?
15 And the Prince of the Lord's host said to Joshua, Loose your shoes from off your feet, for the place where you stand is holy. And Joshua did so.

1 HOWEVER, BRETHREN, I could not talk to you as to spiritual [men], but as to nonspiritual [men of the flesh, in whom the carnal nature predominates], as to mere infants [in the new life] in Christ [unable to talk yet!]
2 I fed you with milk, not solid food, for you were not yet strong enough [to be ready for it]; but even yet you are not strong enough [to be ready for it],
3 For you are still [unspiritual, having the nature] of the flesh [under the control of ordinary impulses]. For as long as [there are] envying and jealousy and wrangling and factions among you, are you not unspiritual and of the flesh, behaving yourselves after a human standard and like mere (unchanged) men?

MAXIMS OF EQUITY
1. Conscience
2. Rights (Healing, Restoration, Better)
3. Intentions (Actions guided by)
4. Refuse Settlement (Promises are yes & Amen)
5. Guarantee (unless you forfeit)
6. Commit Equity (invest life & make unavailable)
7. HEIR = the Real Owner

MAXIMS OF EQUITY
RIGHTEOUSNESS requires him who seeks RIGHTEOUSNESS to do RIGHTEOUSNESS.
If you endeavor to obtain equity you have to commit equity
Commit:
to invest & to tie up as to make unavailable for other purposes

RIGHTEOUSNESS regards as done, that which ought to be done. (RIGHTEOUSNESS abhors a forfeiture of rights.)
If God says something, He considers it “MISSION ACCOMPLISHED”!
(And he hates it if you forfeit his favorable judgment)
Romans 4:16-17

MAXIMS OF EQUITY
RIGHTEOUSNESS acts specifically, and not by way of compensation or settlement.
A)Each case is specific
B)You can’t pay God for a winning sentence
C)God will NEVER settle a case out of court
Only You Can Settle for Less:
The pressure is too great
The pain is too much
The fear is overwhelming
You simply tap out because you’re tired
You choose the counterfeit because it’s in hand
You choose only to believe half-way and obey half-way
Pride and stubbornness
You simply don’t believe RICHES, HONOR & LIFE belong to you

Court of Equity
Equity is "fairness" or "justness" and, specifically, is the name given to the whole area of the law that deals with disputes between persons when neither of them has done anything against the law, but there is a conflict between their rights or claims.
Equity n. 2) a venerable (holy) group of rights and procedures to provide fairness, unhampered by the narrow strictures of the law or technical requirements of the law. In essence, courts do the fair thing by court orders such as correction of property lines, taking possession of assets, imposing a lien, dividing assets, or injunctive relief (ordering a person to do something) to prevent irreparable damage.
Why is Equity important to us? In order to fully understand how God’s judgments or decisions work, we must understand the MAXIMS of EQUITY or the rules of the Court of Equity (Court of RIGHTEOUSNESS). Judgments are good if you are on the winning side of the judgment.

2. RIGHTEOUSNESS will not suffer a wrong without a remedy (healing, restoration, betterment).
(RIGHTEOUSNESS abhors a forfeiture of rights.)
Psalm 34:17 When the righteous(those who live by the rules of equity)cry for help, the Lord hears and delivers them out of all their distress and troubles.
Psalm 37
39 But the salvation of the righteous(those who live by the rules of equity)is of the LORD: he is their strength in the time of trouble.
40 And the LORD shall help them, and deliver them: he shall deliver them from the wicked, and save them because they trust in him.

5Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned:
Romans 13: 14 (AMP)
But clothe yourself with the Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah), and make no provision for [indulging] the flesh [put a stop to thinking about the evil cravings of your physical nature] to [gratify its] desires (lusts).

Ecc 5:1 Keep thy foot when thou goest to the house of God, and be more ready to hear, than to give the sacrifice of fools: for they consider not that they do evil.
Ecc 8:11 Because sentence against an evil work is not executed speedily, therefore the heart of the sons of men is fully set in them to do evil.
Ecc 8:12 Though a sinner (anyone who settles for less than God’s perfect will) do evil a hundred times, and his days be prolonged, yet surely I know that it shall be well with them that fear God, which fear before him:
Pro 8:13 The fear of the LORD is to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate.

Galatians 3: 13
Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: (Covenant Ritual Step #9–plant a tree and sprinkle blood on it.)
Galatians 3: 10-12
For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them.
But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live by faith.
And the law is not of faith: but, The man that doeth them shall live in them.

Jas 2:23 And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God.
GOD – as a friend of Abraham lets him know what HE IS DOING. SERVANTS GET COMMANDS/FRIENDS GET THE PLANS & REMEMBER A FRIEND DOES WHATEVER I SAY (WORKS BOTH WAYS) – I.E. NEGOTIATE WITH YOUR FRIEND
2Pe 2:6 And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrha into ashes condemned them with an overthrow, making them an example unto those that after should live ungodly;
2Pe 2:7 And delivered just Lot, vexed with the filthy conversation of the wicked:
2Pe 2:8 (For that righteous man dwelling among them, in seeing and hearing, vexed his righteous soul from day to day with unlawful deeds;)
ABRAHAM KNEW THE PRESENCE and LOT experienced the power & even though Lot was in the Covenant and rescued from judgment – He NEVER again ENJOYED RICHES, HONOR, or LIFE.
