TODAY'S RHEMA
Daniel 11:32b "…but the people who know their God will firmly resist him."
Harland David "Colonel" Sanders was an American Businessman who founded KFC. He started to franchise his fried chicken business when he was 65 years old. Currently, his fried chicken business called Kentucky Fried Chicken or KFC has been growing up as one of the biggest in world's fast food industry. But previously before he reaped his success, for 9 years, Colonel Sanders tried to perfect his cooking method by using 11 ingredients and spices such as what we all have known today. With those ingredients, the chicken became so tender, crunchy and delicious
He also used a pressure cooker to speed the cooking process and it was also to increase the flavor so currently, we know the term of fast food because of the fastness of fried chicken cooking and deliciousness of its flavor. In 1952, colonel Sanders sold all his property to go around from town to town to offer his recipe. As a former chef, he believed that his recipe will be enthused by many restaurants and they would be willing to cooperate, opening the franchise on his license. Unfortunately, more than 1000 restaurants refused what he had offered but he was not giving up easily and he kept going around until he had reached 1008th company who was willing to buy his franchise and now the franchise named KFC.
Generally, spirit and activity of someone are limited by the age, when the old age comes usually the spirit and the endurance to keep going is decreasing through times. However, Caleb gave an amazing good example, but he proved that old age did not limit his strength and spirit. Even he could defeat the enemy that Joshua could not defeat in his old age.
