DISGRACING YOUR GOLIATH PART 2

The reason why many are still in the same place is because they have been paralysed by fear; they refuse to put their confidence in God. Jesus Christ said to the disciples; have faith in God. Our Faith in God is the only weapon to disgrace the Goliath of our destiny. Many great destinies have been crushed by fear; God did not say that will not be challenged but He promised to see us through and make sure that will not be hurt. Challenges are  a way of building up our trust and confidence in God. In this kingdom there is no jumping of classes, you must pass every promotional exam in order to move to the next class and every promotion is earned based on our trust in God; you just have to trust Him. Personally, I pray about everything and if things don't turn out the way I expected after  prayer, I believe it is for my own good; that there is something hidden in there that I am yet to see. Why? Because I trust God completely and believe that He can never go wrong and cannot lead me to destruction. When things don't go well it must be my fault and I need to introspect in order to figure out what could have gone wrong. Maybe there is something that I need to get right about my life. One thing David does is that he never forgets the goodness of God in His life and he never ceases to tell those who care to know how wonderful his God is. That pleases God´s heart and He called him the man after His own heart. The way to maintain God's overwhelming presence in our lives is to always remember His goodness in our lives and continue to meditate on it; that is how to conquer fear. That if God did it before He will do it again. He is still the same God and He has never changed and He will never change. Many are busy complaining and asking God why? The question should be directed to yourself and not God. God never promises us challenge free life but he only guarantees that he will not leave us nor forsake us; He promises to walk us through it (John 16:33)  (Mathhew 28:20) .

Isaiah 43:2 When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee. 3 For I am the LORD thy God, the Holy One of Israel, thy Saviour: I gave Egypt for thy ransom, Ethiopia and Seba for thee. 4 Since thou wast precious in my sight, thou hast been honourable, and I have loved thee: therefore will I give men for thee, and people for thy life. 5 Fear not: for I am with thee: I will bring thy seed from the east, and gather thee from the west;

Did the water overflow the children of Israel? No; instead the Egyptian lives were given for their sake. Exodus 14:14 (The LORD shall fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace. 15 And the LORD said unto Moses, Wherefore criest thou unto me? speak unto the children of Israel, that they go forward: 28 And the waters returned, and covered the chariots, and the horsemen, and all the host of Pharaoh that came into the sea after them; there remained not so much as one of them. 29 But the children of Israel walked upon dry land in the midst of the sea; and the waters were a wall unto them on their right hand, and on their left. 30 Thus the LORD saved Israel that day out of the hand of the Egyptians; and Israel saw the Egyptians dead upon the sea shore). 

Did fire burn Shedrach, Meshach and Abed-nego? No; instead their accusers' lives were given for their sake. (Daniel 3:23 And these three men, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, fell down bound into the midst of the burning fiery furnace. 24 Then Nebuchadnezzar the king was astonished, and rose up in haste, and spake, and said unto his counsellers, Did not we cast three men bound into the midst of the fire? They answered and said unto the king, True, O king. 25 He answered and said, Lo, I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire, and they have no hurt; and the form of the fourth is like the Son of God).

If Moses and the rest refuse to enter the river; they would not have crossed over into their promised land and they will either die or remain in bondage forever. And if the three Hebrew boys worshiped the image of king Nebuchadnezzar; they would have perished in hell and would not have been promoted nor won souls for God. But their trust in God has made them start forever. Jesus showed up as the fourth man in fire and that was his promise; He parted the red sea and the river did not overflow them because that was his promise. Friends, dare to enter that fire that is stopping your progress and you will see Jesus Christ waiting for you there but until you enter you will not see him; dare to put your feet in the river you will see the invisible hand of God parting the sea for you to cross over. He is waiting for you to trust Him; Faith is believing what you are not seeing physically; God is there, but you just have to believe that He is there. The father of that young man said to Jesus i believe but help my unbelief (Mark 9:24); sometimes we just need to ask for help; surrender to Him; ask Him to help your unbelieve and you will move forward, in Jesus name. You can't trust a stranger nor will God fight for a stranger; you need to be born of God. Become a daughter and a son of the most High God today by praying this salvation prayer below and be blessed, in Jesus name.

Lord Jesus, I come to you today, I am a sinner, and I cannot help myself, forgive me my sins, and cleanse me with your precious blood. Deliver me from sin and Satan to serve the living God. Lord Jesus, I accept you as my Lord and saviour. Now I know I am Born Again, Amen.

DISGRACING YOUR GOLIATH PART 1: 1 SAMUEL 17

1 John 4:18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love. 19 We love him, because he first loved us.

Daily in our journey through life so many situations have made themselves Goliath and are trying to challenge our freedom in Christ. They serve as hindrances and distractions to proceed and focus in our assignment. The faster we get them down the faster we move closer to our destination. Do unto them before they do unto you; if you don't disgrace your Goliath he will continue to embarrass you. He uses fears and threats to paralyse his victims and for you to disgrace him, you need extra ordinary confidence in God. Our confidence in God is in levels depending on the level of your relationship with Him. whatever you are afraid of has become a Goliath; so many know exactly what to do but the fear of failure will not allow them to take steps; if David was busy meditating on the sizes and height of Goliath he would not have been able to disgrace him. Those who have the if i perish i perish mentality are the giant killer. They have the belief that God will cushion them; that  even if they fall they will have a safe landing because God is their safety net.  they are aware of the overwhelming presence of God in their lives. He that is with you is a mighty terrible one; the enemies are not seeing you, they are seeing the one inside of you and He will scare the hell out of them. But the one inside you can only be provoked to act on your behalf only if you believe and trust in him. Your confidence in Him is the spiritual activator that compels Him to act on your behalf. One may ask, but Nene, how do I demonstrate my confidence in God? By taking a bold step and confronting your Goliath; dare to challenge that issue that is standing  in your way. 

2 Timothy 1:7 (For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. 8 Be not thou therefore ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner: but be thou partaker of the afflictions of the gospel according to the power of God;)

Your love for God will make you believe everything He says (Acts 24:14), which means your Faith can be made perfect by Love. The scripture says that Love is as strong as death (Song of Solomon 8:6); The Love of God in the heart of David is what removes fear from Him. David was ready to die for God; He said he hated the enemy of God with perfect hatred (Psalm 139:21-22). His love for God and hatred for Goliath is what gave him victory over him. Ask God to deliver you from the spirit of fear and baptise you with the spirit of Love and sound mind and endue you with power from above. Jesus Christ is Love and the more of Him you have in you the less fear you will have. We have the mind of Christ; as a believer we exhibit the mind of Christ and you cannot have the mind of someone that you did not believe in (1 Corinthians 2:16). Jesus Christ said He and the father will come and live inside the person that loves him and obey his commandment and when he lives in you you will automatically have his mind which is the sound mind that the scripture is talking about (John 14:20-23). They overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony. David disgrace Goliath by his testimony, he recounted how God has saved him several times; many of us have forgotten the great act of God in our lives and focus on the current challenges, you need to believe that if He has done it before that He will do it again. Instead of meditating on how big that challenge is, start meditating on how powerful your God is, and how many times He has rescued you and fought for you. That is exactly what David did. Your testimony will paralyse your enemies; it will weaken them because that shows that your God is with you and He is going after them. Your testimonies will expose their weakness and create a big hole in their forehead and will turn your stone to a weapon of death. 

PRAYER:

1. Father, in the name of Jesus, deliver me from the spirit of fear

2. Father, in the name of  Jesus, Baptise me with the Spirit of Love

3. Father, in the name of Jesus, Baptise me with the Spirit boldness in order of David.

God will not Baptise a stranger, He said to the disciple to baptise anyone who believes in Him (Mark 16:16); so, the above prayer will only work for His children. Friends, here is another opportunity to enter into a Love relationship with God today  by praying this salvation prayer below and be blessed, in Jesus name. 

Lord Jesus, I come to you today, I am a sinner, and I cannot help myself, forgive me my sins, and cleanse me with your precious blood. Deliver me from sin and Satan to serve the living God. Lord Jesus, I accept you as my Lord and saviour. Now I know I am Born Again, Amen.

KNOWLEDGE OF YOUR SPIRITUAL IDENTITY KEY TO PULLING DOWN OF STRONGHOLDS

The knowledge of your spiritual identity is the key to pulling down a stronghold. No one can successfully pull down any stronghold and build up waste until he comes to the knowledge and the full understanding of who he is in Christ. It is the will of God for us to know who He has created us to be and that is why He advises us to give ourselves to the continuous studying of His word. The word of God is the creator´s manual in which everything concerning our makeup is documented.

Jeremiah 1:4 Then the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, 5 Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations. 6 Then said I, Ah, Lord GOD! behold, I cannot speak: for I am a child. 7 But the LORD said unto me, Say not, I am a child: for thou shalt go to all that I shall send thee, and whatsoever I command thee thou shalt speak. 8 Be not afraid of their faces: for I am with thee to deliver thee, saith the LORD. 9 Then the LORD put forth his hand, and touched my mouth. And the LORD said unto me, Behold, I have put my words in thy mouth. 10 See, I have this day set thee over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant. 

This is so emotional, anytime I read about Prophet Jeremiah´s encounter with God it makes tears roll down my cheeks. Friends, this is the kind of God I serve, He is a God that pampers His children, He is a God that wants you to grow to the full manifestation of what you are meant to be; He is a God that will always be there for you. He is still the same yesterday, today and forever more, He never changes. And He is the God that I want to introduce to you in case you have not known Him. 

So many times in my journey God has told m to focus on Him and ignores all the happening around me; and this He continues to say everyday when the going was turf. God became more real to me; sometime in 2016, my brother said to me, why do you act as if you can see God face to face, that anytime I hear the Lord says, it becomes a gospel truth. My response was, of course God is real to me and whatever He says is final. I have tasted His power and I have experienced His love and I am not ready to let go of Him. it will interest you to know that God is interested in everything concerning your life, no matter how minute that issue is. God wants to guide you the same ways he guided prophet Jeremiah until you come to the full understanding of who you really are. On the 1st of March 2022, I had an encounter with God after I prayed for His guidance concerning an apartment that I was to move into. He visited 2 days before my departure and gave me a new name and said to me that He will be with me and tend to me. I was so excited and moved into this apartment. First night scorpion, third night two scorpions paralysed; I fumigated and ran away to my friend's apartment. But guess what, the scorpion kept coming and I remembered the word of the Lord and I was strengthened but with a little fear; then the Lord spoke and said why are you afraid of something that is paralysed. And since then I became bold and the fear died. But before then My church members, my pastors, had prayed. One day the Lord said to me, stop calling people to come and pray. When your Pastor prayed the scorpion stopped coming for 6 days because I did not want you to think that your pastor does not have authority but the battle is for you to defeat the scorpions. He began to teach me what to do, how to make declarations and so many other things that I have learned from that experience. Some battles are meant for your spiritual growth not because the enemies are too powerful. God never leaves; He is always there; He is the master trainer; David says, He trained my arms to war. How did you think He train His children? He did not leave Jeremiah alone, He continued to walk with him, He asked him, what are you seeing? Jeremiah 1:11 (Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, Jeremiah, what seest thou? And I said, I saw a rod of an almond tree. 12 Then said the LORD unto me, Thou hast well seen: for I will hasten my word to perform it). Until you come to the knowledge of who you are, and begin to see clearly what God is showing you, you will not be able to command the supernatural.

Read also (Judges 6:11-23) Gideon´s encounter with God is somehow similar to that of Prophet Jeremiah. Gideon looked down on himself and the LORD said no, that he is a mighty man of valour. Gideon came to the true understanding of his identity before he went on to defeat the Midianites. Friends, I know that God has destined you for greatness; but who are you? Are you still considering yourself to be poor and least among your father's house or do you still consider yourself as a child that could not speak like Jeremiah or are you still afraid of those things that are meant to be running away from you. God says you are a mighty man of valour, God says that you can pull down Nations and you can also plant and build them up. Which report are you going to believe about yourself? The devil's lies or the truth of God concerning your identity. The choice is yours; our examples clearly show how we cannot pull down strongholds by our own strength except we allow God to walk us through it. God will not invade your life, He needs your permission to step into your life and walk you through it; please allow Him by praying this salvation prayer below and be blessed, in Jesus name.

Lord Jesus, I come to you today, I am a sinner, and I cannot help myself, forgive me my sins, and cleanse me with your precious blood. Deliver me from sin and Satan to serve the living God. Lord Jesus, I accept you as my Lord and saviour. Now I know I am Born Again, Amen.

KNOWING YOUR TRUE IDENTITY: PART 3

Psalm 82:6 I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High. 7 But ye shall die like men, and fall like one of the princes.

Your true identity is your spiritual identity; your physical identity does not really matter to the world; what they are interested in is your spiritual makeup because that is what makes you who you are in Christ as a believer. Only those who have the knowledge of their identity in Christ can command the supernatural. Knowledge is in levels; therefore your commanding of the supernatural will be according to the level of your understanding of who you are in Christ. 

John 3:6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. 7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again. 8 The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.

Men are in categories whether you like it or not you will be grouped; but as a child of God it is difficult for them to group you that is why when you start commanding exploit the question of your identity will become an issue for the world. They have seen your physical make up but your spiritual make up has become an issue for them because you are not found where they belong and yet you are moving forward. They believe that if you are not with them then you are meant to be crawling somewhere not this. The scripture has described you as a wind, and a spirit and you cannot be grouped by mere men; you are a supernatural being and you are not an ordinary person. Your exploit is a mystery that cannot be explained by men. God says that you are god but since you don't want to accept who He says you are that you are going to die like men. Moses accepted his identity and he went to Egypt to confront Pharaoh as a god not as Moses they used to know then. If he did not believe it when God said that He had made him god to Pharaoh he won´t have been able to defeat him and rescue the children of Israel (Exodus 7:1). Friends the reason why that situation is still lingering is because you have refused to accept that God has made you god unto them. You have been given dominion over that issue, so quit being on a defensive corner and confront them like a god with full authority. We all have to get a deep understanding of our spiritual identity because it is your spiritual understanding that will manifest in the physical for all to see; the spiritual control the physical. So, feeding your physical and beautifying it without taking care of your spiritual life is effort in futility. As food is to the physical body so is the word of God to our spiritual makeup. Some have fed their physical body but their spiritual body is malnourished. Friends, feed your spirit with the word of God and garnish it with fasting and prayer and then you will become indescribable and uncatchable as a wind.  Here is what Jesus says concerning the physical food;  Mark 7:15 (There is nothing from without a man, that entering into him can defile him: but the things which come out of him, those are they that defile the man). That which comes from inside a man is his or her spiritual makeup and it will manifest in the open for all to see. Jeremiah did come to the full understanding of his true identity until God touched his mouth and His word entered into him. Just like Jeremiah you have been empowered to pull down all the strongholds that are challenging your destiny but the word of God has to enter into you in order for you to understand your true identity. Psalm 119:130(The entrance of thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding unto the simple). Friends, until you have the full understanding and the knowledge of who you truly are, you will continue to be afraid of what is meant to be running away from you.  

PRAYER:

Lord Jesus, open my eye to behold the wondrous things in your word (Psalm 119:18)

Lord Jesus, reveal myself to me by the power of your word.

Friends, God is Spirit and he that is born of Spirit is spirit; He that is born of flesh is flesh.  To be born of Spirit you need to accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and saviour, only then you can boldly ask him to reveal your true identity to you. What are you waiting for, quickly pray this salvation prayer below and remove the veil that has been covering your glory and be blessed, in Jesus name.

Lord Jesus, I come to you today, I am a sinner, and I cannot help myself, forgive me my sins, and cleanse me with your precious blood. Deliver me from sin and Satan to serve the living God. Lord Jesus, I accept you as my Lord and saviour. Now I know I am Born Again, Amen.

KNOWING YOUR TRUE IDENTITY PART 2

Life remains an illusion if you do not know who you are; the question of your true identity is very important if you really want to move forward in this journey of life. It is a very interesting life question that all of us should genuinely ask ourselves and then search for an answer; who am i?  Until you get an answer to this very important question one will remain miserable.  The reason why many are depressed is because they seem confused and need an answer but not knowing how to go about it. Have you ever thought about this, that someone that lives with you, grows up with, will still ask you the same question; like, who are you? He or she is seeing you quite alright;  but he still needs an answer. He is actually asking about your spiritual identity, your makeup, what is behind your exploit, why do you feel important and then came to conclusion; who the hell are you? Because this is not the you that i used to know that i am seeing now. If you are making exploit because you know who you are, you will still be asked the same question and if you are not doing well, your situation will want an answer in order to let you move forward. In psalm 24, our creator, the Almighty God was asked the same question, so don't think it is unusual. Psalm 24:7 (Lift up your head, O ye gates; and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in. 8 Who is this King of glory? The LORD strong and mighty, the LORD mighty in battle. 9 Lift up your heads, O ye gates; even lift them up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in. 10 Who is this King of glory? The LORD of hosts, he is the King of glory. Selah). Whoever is asking the question is right; the issue is what is your answer to them and what would you say when you are asked. Did you know who you really are? God introduced Himself as The LORD strong and mighty and The LORD of hosts.  That gate will not open to their own accord until you tell them who you are and by what authority you stand to command them. Moses asked God the same question, who should I tell Pharaoh that you are? He answered and said tell him that I AM THAT I AM have sent you. God introduces Himself based on the situation on ground and the entity involved.  Exodus 6:1 (Then the LORD said unto Moses, Now shalt thou see what I will do to Pharaoh: for with a strong hand shall he let them go, and with a strong hand shall he drive them out of his land. 2 And God spake unto Moses, and said unto him, I am the LORD: 3 And I appeared unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, by the name of God Almighty, but by my name JEHOVAH was I not known to them). So, many times God has taken time to introduce Himself to us  over and over again because He knows that it is very necessary. We are created in His own image and for us to end our journey well we need to develop the same character.  Our identity is in Christ, we are hiding in him and we can only introduce ourselves by the authority given to us by him through the understanding of his word.  John the Baptize was asked the same question and his answer was based on the understanding of the scripture; he refers to the Jews to what is written concerns him. John 1:23 (He said, I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, Make straight the way of the Lord, as said the prophet Esaias). Jesus Christ did not wait for them to ask him; from the first day his ministry started he never ceased to let them who he was. John 8:25( Then said they unto him, Who art thou? And Jesus saith unto them, Even the same that I said unto you from the beginning). John says He is the voice; Jesus Christ said that He is the Messiah; but you my friend; who are you? You are who God says you are; you are His perfect image; your identity is in His word and you need to discover it by yourself, no one can do it for you. That stubborn situation that has made himself Pharaoh unto you want you to answer this question; He won't go away until you reveal yourself to him. But as for you reading this message, because of the light you have gotten from this message; your pharaoh shall be drawn in the red sea today, in the name of Jesus. The  iron gate shall be lifted for you to enter into your promised land, the two leaved gates shall be wide open for you in the name of Jesus.  The mountain will give way because He that is in you is greater than the devil that is in the world (1 John 4:4).  You are more than a conqueror (Romans 8:37). You are a warrior queen and a king; the Lord has trained your arm to war and has made your feet like hinds feet (Psalm 18:33-34). It is God's will for you to know who you are,  and you are who He says you are; and it is through your genuine relationship with him that you can discover your identity. In case you are interested in knowing your true self; here is another opportunity to enter into a relationship with God by praying this salvation prayer below and be blessed, in Jesus name.

Lord Jesus, I come to you today, I am a sinner, and I cannot help myself, forgive me my sins, and cleanse me with your precious blood. Deliver me from sin and Satan to serve the living God. Lord Jesus, I accept you as my Lord and saviour. Now I know I am Born Again, Amen.

KNOWING YOUR TRUE IDENTITY: PART 1

The knowledge and understanding of who you are in Christ is very important as a child of God. Knowing who you are in this kingdom is the key to access your inheritance in christ. The agenda of darkness is to hide yourself from you (2 Corinthians 3:14-18 and 2 Corinthians 4:4); as we all know that it is to you according to your level of your understanding and no one can manifest what he or she does not understand. Matthew 13:23 (But he that received seed into the good ground is he that heareth the word, and understandeth it; which also beareth fruit, and bringeth forth, some an hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty). The word of God is a spiritual mirror that reveal to us our true identity; it paints our pictures and reveal them to us as a believer;  so if you really want to know how you look like and what you should be, then you have to lay hold on the perfect law of liberty and look into it (James 1:23-25). God knows this very well and he told Joshua in the book of  Joshua 1:8( This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success). The moment you allow it to depart from you, you will begin to lose your identity little by little until you lose everything, but that will not be you, in Jesus name. The irony of life is that many believers do not really know who they are; but whether you like it or not, people, situations, the devil and his agent will continue to ask you everyday the question of your true identity. That sickness is asking you the same question, unemployment is asking you the same question, lack and want is asking you the same question; what is your answer to them because that will determine your victory. I developed this habit which I picked from my mentor of introducing myself when praying. The reason is because prayer is a warfare, the opposition needs to know you and the ground in which you are standing. That is, on which authority are you standing to command them. The Jews asked Jesus the same question;  Matthew 21:23 (And when he was come into the temple, the chief priests and the elders of the people came unto him as he was teaching, and said, By what authority doest thou these things? and who gave thee this authority)? That affliction you are praying against that refuses to go is challenging your authority as a believer. You need to  tell the disease that by the stripe of Christ you are healed. Goliath introduces himself to David and David also introduces himself to Goliath and suddenly the battle changes hands. The Israelite Armies and King Saul forgot their identity because they were not meditating on the commandant as God instructed Joshua. They allow the perfect book of liberty to depart from them and they enter into bondage and become prey to their enemies including Goliath. Thank God for a young man like David who still knows and has a good relationship with God. He introduced His God to Goliath as His identity;  He said to Goliath that God has trained his arm to slay Lions and Bears and he is not different from any of those animals. David killed Goliath like a small bird because to David he was smaller than Lion and Bear and there was no need for too much fight (1 Samuel 17:42-58). Friends, what kind of situation are you facing? How do you view it? Who is challenging your redemption? What is your answer to them? Are you going to be like David or King Saul and his armies? The answer will determine your victory in this battle. 1 John 5:3 (For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous. 4 For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith. 5 Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God)? The word of God says you are an overcomer because you are born of God and he also said that for this to manifest in your life you need to love God by keeping His commandment and that His commandment is not to punish you but rather it is meant to profit you. Your authority as a believer is in the word of God  and Jesus Christ is the word of God; so, our authority is Christ  our rock.  You need to let the devils know  that you are standing on the solid rock. Friends, enough is enough of the harassment of the devil, it is time to disgrace your Goliath in order of David . It is only God that can direct your stone towards the right target and turn it into a weapon of destruction.  He is the only one that can give you the confidence you need by revealing yourself to you; and He wants to enter into a relationship with you. What are you still waiting for, run to Him by praying this salvation prayer below and be blessed, in Jesus name

Lord Jesus, I come to you today, I am a sinner, and I cannot help myself, forgive me my sins, and cleanse me with your precious blood. Deliver me from sin and Satan to serve the living God. Lord Jesus, I accept you as my Lord and saviour. Now I know I am Born Again, Amen.

GETTING YOUR FEET BACK ON THE ROCK: 1 PETER 2:4-10

1 Corinthians 10:4 And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ.

Following God's direction requires patience but not everyone is willing to be patient because to them God is too slow; forgetting that He says that His way is not our way and His thought is not our thought (Isaiah 55:9-11). Everything concerning your life and destiny is written by Him and there is nothing you can do to change what He has written concerning your journey. You are not here because of yourself alone, you are here for an assignment and the one who sent you knows the way better than you, so why are you in a hurry. He is the rock of ages, our sure foundation and rock of defence; and without Him we can do nothing. The only way we can be hopeful for greater glory is when our feet are firm on Him, our rock but many because of impatience and lack of trust in God have slipped away from their rock. God in His mercy has made a way for us to always get our feet back on the rock as soon as we realise that our defence is no longer with us. With patience and complete confidence in God what is written concerns you will surely come to pass. Habakkuk 2:3 (For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry). Let's look at the example of Zachariah the high priest and his wife Elizabeth. Luke 1:6 (And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless. 7 And they had no child, because that Elisabeth was barren, and they both were now well stricken in years).

The scripture says that they were both righteous but yet they were barren; their barrenness is not because of anything they have done wrong, not at all but because God has a plan for them which they knew nothing about. They were actually waiting for God´s agenda without knowing it. Mary the mother of Jesus needs to come up at an age to carry the Messiah because somehow they are destiny kinds of overlap. Luke 1:20 (And, behold, thou shalt be dumb, and not able to speak, until the day that these things shall be performed, because thou believest not my words, which shall be fulfilled in their season). When the time come, Zachariah´s faith could not carry the message from the Angel but that did not stop God from carrying out His agenda instead he went dumb so that he will not use his mouth to scatter things for God or delay His plan because his an anointed man and has the authority in his tongue to bless or to curse. The key point is that, while waiting please continue to serve God and be in His presence; remain standing on the rock. The Angel met Zachariah at the place of service. I pray for someone the Angel carrying your answer will not miss you, in Jesus name. Many were standing on rock before but their feet had slipped away from the rock just because they thought God is too slow, they couldn't wait for Him to perfect His plan for them. Zachariah remains firm on the rock and God brings to pass his desire. If your feet are no longer on the rock the ground you are now standing in is sinking sand and you will soon go down into the valley. Jesus Christ is our solid rock, the rock of our salvation and our rock of defence; He is our hope; our only guarantee that our tomorrow will be greater than today. The question is, how do I get my feet back on the rock? By repenting of all your sins and asking God for forgiveness; and reconnect with Him by rededicating your life to Him (1 John 1:9). As soon as king David realises that his feet are no longer on the rock he gets back quickly before it is too late (Psalm 51). When Peter denies Jesus 3 times, he wept bitterly and got his feet back on the rock quickly (Luke 22:60-62). Luke 22:31 (And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat: 32 But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren. 33 And he said unto him, Lord, I am ready to go with thee, both into prison, and to death. 34 And he said, I tell thee, Peter, the cock shall not crow this day, before that thou shalt thrice deny that thou knowest me).

Your adversary knows the plan of God for you and he also knows that as long as feet remain firm on the rock it will definitely come to pass; his agenda is to cast doubt in your heart in order to get your feet off the rock. Friends, I have good news for you, Jesus Christ is waiting for you, his hand is stretched towards you, he wants to get you back on the rock in case you slip away or you are not even standing there in the first place. Hurry up and give him your hand by praying this salvation prayer below and be blessed, in Jesus name.

Lord Jesus, I come to you today, I am a sinner, and I cannot help myself, forgive me my sins, and cleanse me with your precious blood. Deliver me from sin and Satan to serve the living God. Lord Jesus, I accept you as my Lord and saviour. Now I know I am Born Again, Amen.

NENE ISAH,
