Matthew 21:19 And when he saw a fig tree in the way, he came to it, and found nothing thereon, but leaves only, and said unto it, Let no fruit grow on thee henceforward for ever. And presently the fig tree withered away. 20 And when the disciples saw it, they marvelled, saying, How soon is the fig tree withered away! 21 Jesus answered and said unto them, Verily I say unto you, If ye have faith, and doubt not, ye shall not only do this which is done to the fig tree, but also if ye shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; it shall be done. 22 And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.
Going through life involve some natural process but most of the times we find ourselves in hurry to get to our destination forgetting that our life is like a seed; when a seed is sown into the ground it goes through the process of germination and any interruption will automatically kill the seed or hinder its development and that is exactly what many of us find ourselves doing. The word of God is a seed sown into our heart and it needs to go through the process of faith in order to come to the full manifestation. Just like the natural seed, if you sow it into the soil and you continue to remove it to see if it is changing or how it is going to change, then you have killed that seed. When we receive the word regarding any issue of concern in our lives we are to believe God that as He has said so shall it be. Going back to remove the seed from the ground is a sign of unbelief and that is exactly what many of us have done to our faith. We are constantly interrupting the process of our faith and that is why it has not been producing results that we desire. I personally was guilty of this interruption of faith process and I want to share it with you. There are this demonic scorpions that kept appearing in my apartment; it come at the same time and landed in two different spot in my bathroom but in the bedroom and kitchen it will appear in a strategic spot where it thinks i am going to put my feet; so the scorpion has a minds of their own. The ones in the bathroom hide behind the wash hand basin and another corner; because I am conscious of it appearing I develop a habit of checking those places at that time; and guess what, I will definitely find them there. It comes between the hours of 12:00 am and 1:00 am if i check before the time i will not find them there. This continues on a daily basis. I prayed and many joined me in prayer and this continued, and that is after I have fumigated severally without result. A Deacon in my local church that has prayed with me concerning this matter told me, Nene, stop looking for the scorpion because you will continue to see them, that I should remove my mind from it and they will stop coming. He told me about his experience with satanic scorpions and snakes that as long as he was expecting it he kept seeing them until the the day that the Spirit of God told him to stop; I agreed with him but within my heart, i said this man did not know what is happening here, why won't i check. But guess what he was right because I was actually interrupting my faith process. I will make bold declarations and yet I will go back and check to see if the scorpion has come again; this is very funny but it is true. Jesus Christ the author and the finisher of our faith did not go back to check the fig tree after he commanded it to dry up nor did he stand there to watch the process; it was Peter that reminded him that the fig tree had actually dried up. You are not the one doing the work, it is by His Spirit; allow the Holy Spirit to do his work and stop interrupting him; when he finishes his work he will remind you (Zechariah 4:6). No one knows the time the water turns to wine but the master knows and he instructed the servant to take the wine to the governor of the ceremony (John 2:1-10). If they did not wait for the instruction they would hinder the process. Yours is to speak the word without a doubt in your heart and the spirit of God will take over from there. John 6:63 (It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life). Friends, I don 't know what has been challenging your redemption; begin right now to speak against that unwanted situation; and also speak life into your business, career and destiny for your turnaround testimony. It is your turn to testify to the goodness of God, rejoice and be glad. He that is born of flesh is flesh and he that is born of spirit is spirit and it is the spirit that brings life to your word. In case you are not yet born again quickly pray 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,
