SET US A MARKER!

Psalms 74:9, KJV

"We see not our signs: there is no more any prophet: neither is there among us any that knoweth how long."

When a marker is set or given to anyone or people; they sure can with that put preparation on ground or deduce how long. When a marker or sign is not set or seen at all, people know not what time to anticipate. They can't even tell when a particular event that's ongoing would come to an end or when exactly to await a predicted one or event. However, signs given or seen can increase hope and assure us of the coming to pass of a thing for which the sign was given. 

Elisha prophesying abundance into the future of Samaria sets a marker. He said in II Kings 7:1, "hear ye the word of the LORD; Thus saith the LORD, To morrow about this time shall a measure of fine flour be sold for a shekel, and two measures of barley for a shekel, in the gate of Samaria." Since Elisha is a proven prophet, what any believing person ought to do is to check what time it is first of all and get ready for that time of the day the next day. That's not time to go to sleep or become inactive. It's rather a time of expectation on tip toes. I believe no believing person who heard this sign that Elijah gave went on to commit murder out of hopelessness as it might have been afore planned. Rather, hope was arisen in them to expect for the better. 

In John 5 at the pool of Bethesda, we see a community of invalids waiting for the moving of the water. The moving of the water is the sign or marker set in place for them. Once that sign is clearly seen, well interpreted and understood, everybody will immediately cast away all hindrances and begin to compete to touch the empowered or stirred water. But first of all, a sign had to be set for them. Else, nobody will know and there won't be any difference in action.

When a marker is not set or a sign put in place, people don't have a focused vision of what to do nor change their attitude. As long as the water is not visibly seen stirred (seeing it moving and dangling), nobody rushes towards the pool in strong action. It's not different from sounding a counch. If well interpreted, it could mean retreat or advance to battle. 

The Bible says, "we see not our signs..." That's the unfortunate situation these people found themselves in. They had no marker by which they could understand how long or how far. The entire horizon was just filled with silence for them. No guidance of any sort. They were just empty headed not knowing what to do because no information has been given to them to prepare them or make them ready. They were alone. You could call them "the forlorn." There was inactivity and no hope of what to do because no marker has been set to get the people ready for action. If only somebody would blow the whistle or release a gun shot into the air, that's when people can take off. However, nobody gives that sign. A marker or sign can be in a set time or predicted date or an event readying or foreshadowing a coming one by which those who have ears can prepare. I pray, may you not be alone. May you have signs to prepare with. May you have several markers to help you wait or anticipate correctly. When others are saying, "we are lost, futile and null in action because we see not our signs", may you say, "I am strong because I'm equipped with signs on when and what to expect." It's a blessing being given signs. It concentrates you on a goal and teaches you what to anticipate. Do you know that there are so many physical things in our realm that signals the coming of an event or season? When a typical African thunderstorm announces itself in the midst of a dark cloud, we may say, it wants to rain. How can you be without signs then? Never! Not again from henceforth. So, see your signs. Signs meant for the arrival of your prophecy. If no sign is given you, how would you know when a thing should elapse or become accomplished like Daniel in Daniel Chapter 9. However, you won't be alone again. Signs will rather be given to you to help you on and on. Receive your signs. Like stars in a dark night are clearly visible, let them so appear to you. 

PRAYER/CONFESSION: I see my signs. I am armed with signs. I take advantage of the signs..

WISHING YOU THE THINGS OF YOUR DESTINY!

WISHING YOU THE THINGS OF YOUR DESTINY!

People, there's one thing I'm earnestly praying for on your behalf. It's to have released to you "the things of your destiny." It might have been delayed till hitherto but this is what I heard in the spirit concerning you. 

Psalms 102:13, KJV

"Thou shalt arise, and have mercy upon Zion: for the time to favour her, yea, the set time, is come."

"Set time" that has come looses and releases to anyone his things that might have been overruled and held for long. It doesn't even matter how long. We're in that set time of yours now. As such, all arguments are battered and oppositions disarmed for your sake. Entrance is what you're now granted!

The Bible tells us this concerning Esther and didn't keep shut. It says, "and the maiden pleased him, and she obtained kindness of him; and he speedily gave her her things for purification, with such things as belonged to her, and seven maidens, which were meet to be given her, out of the king's house: and he preferred her and her maids unto the best place of the house of the women" (Esther 2:9, KJV). 

Imagine how it read! "...and he speedily gave her the things of her purification...with such things as belonged to her."

What are the things that belong to you? What are the things that by ordainment and allocation of God are yours from above? You're receiving them now!

Without those things, Esther may not be well prepped for the competition. Without the cosmetics to dazzle the physical senses and the food to look chubby or greasy, she might have looked lean and unfavoured like those kines Pharaoh saw in his dream (Gen.41:3). 

Though favour, that supernatural flow and aura was on her side - working for her day and night (having surrounded her like a shield - Psalm 5:12); yet if that favour didn't secure her the things of her purification, it wouldn't have shown that favour was at play in her life. Favour doesn't stay silent always. It knows its season of action. It manifests when occasion calls! It showed up for Esther. May it prove for you too. 

I pray for you, let favour begin to do its assignment in your life. Let it be the persuader of men on your behalf. It'll be so strong that you'll be heralded afar off even when you haven't neared men. 

Esther just didn't win the beauty contest and attracted the king's favour. All things had to work for her. All other things had to be found equal for her - going well for her. Nothing was found amiss!

What is the thing of your own purification? What should you be given (that is freely allotted  by God or has been paid for by an institution or is being sponsored by the government) but which has been denied you till now? How I cry that the gateway and thoroughfare would now be opened up for you so that 'your purification things' and all things that pertain to your destiny would be released unto you. 

Have you being denied your rights? Is your inheritance taken over? Are your bonuses being chopped by some goons? Is your pension being diverted by big cheeks or your game allowance is being siphoned? 

All these are the things of your destiny. They are freely given for your welfare. You know, in order to aid you in your journey or what you have found to do. 

I pray for you, receive the things of your destiny now! Even more than I've listed here that exists for you. No more delay on such things that'll lead to your greatness, high promotion but succinctly give you comfort. 

This April shall not withhold. It'll obey and vomit all the things of your destiny! Such things that are meant for you! Copy that!

Olusola ADEJUMO,

M'Wings.

Happy New Month!!!

MORNING WINGS DAILY DEVOTIONAL  - Olusola ADEJUMO

WILL YOU SHOW YOURSELF A WORTHY MAN?

I Kings 1:52, KJV

"And Solomon said, If he will shew himself a worthy man, there shall not an hair of him fall to the earth: but if wickedness shall be found in him, he shall die."

I began a teaching yesterday through which God has begun to evacuate impurities from our lives. The psalmist cries saying, "23 search me O God and know my heart: try me and know my thoughts: 24 And see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting" (Psalms 139:23-24). That was the heartcry of the psalmist as he sought to be made perfect. He never withheld himself from being searched and found out. He knew that would make him a better person. He even demanded for that search so that what is hidden in his life as negative characters or attitudes but which is like a time bomb waiting to blow up might be disarmed early. May this be your heart cry too. That God will do you the favour of showing you your imperfections so that you can correct your errors and grow into being perfect. If your imperfections follow you to the top, it'll lead to your downfall. However, if you're this early purged of them, you will have a safe stay in the palace. Until you're tried by God, you may not consent that your heart is wicked or you're capable of certain wickedness. However, if He does and shows you to yourself, you'll have no choice but to surrender and take the testimony of the Lord as true. 

However, we'll be examining Adonijah today. Solomon made a statement on Adonijah when he was retrieved from the horns of the altar and was forgiven for his treachery in trying to seize the throne and the kingdom from Solomon whom God has rightly given it. 

"And Solomon said, If he will shew himself a worthy man, there shall not an hair of him fall to the earth: but if wickedness shall be found in him, he shall die."

You'll think after this saving grace Adonijah received, he would conduct himself worthily. However, he wouldn't relent from the kingship race though it shows clearly he has been knocked off and the throne gone to who rightly owns it. What step did Adonijah take therefore? He thought of rivalling the king and sharing his bed with him by requesting for Abishag, the beautiful lady who tended to David and lied in his bosom to give him warmth while alive. David couldn't have sexual intimacy with Abishag due to old age but has been passed to Solomon as the inheritance of the reigning king. That's what Adonijah came to ask for and that request shows what he actually wanted - the throne. Solomon knew this when he responded to his mother in a most sarcastic way. 

I Kings 2:22, KJV

"And king Solomon answered and said unto his mother, And why dost thou ask Abishag the Shunammite for Adonijah? ask for him the kingdom also; for he is mine elder brother; even for him, and for Abiathar the priest, and for Joab the son of Zeruiah."

Let me ask you, "have you been forgiven somewhere before but with warning to show yourself worthily?" Don't disappoint yourself! Better show yourself worthily. Do you think you can continue in sin and say grace should abound? Do you think you can continue violating God's laws and sinning willfully and habitually yet delighting God? If repeated failures anger men, don't you think it displeases God as well? Is there a matter that has been decided but which for ego and competition sake you have refused to let go - abiding by the rightful court ruling? If you continue this way when it clearly shows fair judgement has been passed already, you'll not only incur God's wrath for wanting to turn fair judgement over but the law's. Adonijah never agreed that he has a problem which is ego. He's evil and despite having been forgiven for his grievous sin, which was worthy of death, he still went around peddling and looking for ways to have in-roads into Solomon's life and probably gain grounds to assert his kingship. This prayer of the psalmist still peaks in my heart. Each and everyone of us must cry that God will search us and show us wickedness in our hearts before they find us out. If you've been living in denial of a weakness or vulnerability, I'll say repent. Not doing so and strengthening yourself over that thing will spell future calamity for you. If Ananias and Sapphira had known, they would have prayed that God would search them, find them out and purge them of deceit, lying tongue, competition/ lust for out-rivalling others and lack of integrity. If that had been sorted out, they wouldn't have confronted the Holy Ghost in the life of Peter. Peter blatantly told Ananias in Acts 5:3, "why hath Satan filled thine heart to lie to the Holy Ghost, and to keep back part of the price of the land?"

May it become our heart cry this new month to be purged of every strand of wickedness that can grow from foothold to stronghold in our lives. 

PRAYER: Firmly search me out and reveal myself to me. Let me be dealt with before sin and unhealthy character leads to my downfall.

AND SEE IF THERE BE ANY WICKED WAY IN ME

Psalms 139:23-24, KJV

"23 Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts: 24 And see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting."

It is good to have self confidence. Faith in one self will help you accomplish a lot. Where it is necessary, you must believe in yourself or else, even if God gives you a go ahead, you'd still say you're inadequate (Jer.1:4-8). 

However, have you not doubted yourself before? Have you not called yourself to a conferencing where you asked if you were the one who just acted that way you had recently acted? Oooh, are you rolling your eyes or squeezing your nose? Which have you found to do? Is God's GPS locating your address this morning?

The Psalmist cried to God saying, "search me O God, and know my heart! Try me and know my thoughts!" Why would he pray a prayer like this? It's because even the Psalmist had realized his imperfections (even if it was in time past). Though he longs for righteousness and being made perfect, yet he sees his human errors, weaknesses, frailties and knows that he's prone to stumbling. For this reason (of seeing and knowing his human failures), he called unto God to come and help conduct a search in his life. Also, the psalmist didn't trust himself as being able to conduct a revealing search that'll naked all things in him in all truthfulness. He might fall into self sympathy or excuse himself by being lenient on himself instead of calling a spade a spade. For this added reason, he cried that God would help search him. Indeed, who's trustworthy to reveal the hidden secrets of the heart if not God?

However, his cry and the reason for asking for the flash and search lights of God upon his heart is for a reason - so that God would be able to detect any wicked way in him, cure him of them, lead him in the way everlasting (that has been researched and proven to be true and right for any human being who would find it) while he progressively attains perfection or the stature of Christ. 

Do you think you so much believe in yourself? Wait until you rescind your promise or misbehave to your own shock. Such moments hint at the fact that there are still wicked ways in you - traces of the adamic nature. This is what the psalmist saw and which once you sighted, must cry to God for because you really want to be pure and useful in His hands. You never knew you had the wicked way of retaliating in you until a situation brought it out! You were even shocked you could abuse your spouse and was astonished at yourself that this same you could inflate the price for unnecessary gains! You see! That's our Christian brother and sister o! All these and many more acts of ours reveal there's still a wicked way lurking in the secret corner of your heart. Tell God to search your heart and reveal these and many more to you. You'll be shocked to find out that the supposed pure you have scorpions, serpents, broken bottles and razors deep down occupying your heart. You'll suddenly come to the awareness of how much you've wished people evil while believing your heart was right. Look, you need God's search! God must come to scan for all these debris and free you of them before Satan comes to search you and find these wicked ways in you. If you refuse God's search, these wicked ways in you will cloud and mirage the manifestation of Christ's character and the spreading of His aroma through you. For us to be sure that you're not carrying a contrary cargo, you need to be searched and tried even by God (the only trusted One). When you're this squeezed, all these wicked ways (if any is in you) will drop through the renewing of your mind and discipleship (Rom.12:1-2). That way, you're being led in the way everlasting.That way, you would have found what is true to hold unto that cannot fail.

PRAYER/CONFESSION: Search and try me O Lord! See if there's any wicked way in me and lead me in the way everlasting. I receive a revelation of what to let go.

GOD WILL ADMINISTER YOU!

I Kings 18:10, KJV

"As the LORD thy God liveth, there is no nation or kingdom, whither my lord hath not sent to seek thee: and when they said, He is not there; he took an oath of the kingdom and nation, that they found thee not."

First of all, all of us cannot live in the same place. That's why there are different men spread over the surface of the earth, living in different places. As a matter of fact, you cannot persuade some people out of the locations they have found to dwell. That is not because they are self sufficient or have everything in this life at their disposal there but because they are contented dwelling there. When you have inner satisfaction and joy staying somewhere, it becomes difficult being persuaded out of that location especially the one God has sovereignly administered you into. 

The Bible has pointed out that God determines the periods of our existence and the bounds of our dwelling.

Acts 17:26, KJV

"And hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and hath determined the times before appointed, and the bounds of their habitation."

Apart from your time of existence that has been measured to you and can't be exceeded, God has also determined that people be born in different places and live in different places at different times. If you're born into a country and your destiny requires leaving or living and having to do with another, God will sponsor you there. Joseph didn't have to take thought for the transport fee to Egypt. Neither did Daniel and the Hebrew boys did. The vehicle of slavery or enslavement is rather what God used to catapult them there. God can carry you to a land where your destiny should unfold even when you don't have any family or friends there assuring you to come and that, "all is ready."

God hid Elijah. God told him, "turn thee Eastward." 

I Kings 17:2-3, KJV

"2 And the word of the LORD came unto him, saying, 3 Get thee hence, and turn thee eastward, and hide thyself by the brook Cherith, that is before Jordan."

When Elijah heeded that word, he never knew the consequence God was saving him from. The consequence God was saving him from is being searched after for harm by Ahab. Obadiah declares that Ahab has searched for Elijah in all nations of the earth to no avail and when they said he's not there, he even asked those nations to swear to it. Imagine! Did you see how wanted Elijah was? Yet Ahab sought for him and Elijah was not found. That's because in the administering of Elijah at that time, God turned him where it would not be expected he could be. He was by Brook Cherith but he was not found. And later on when the brook dried up, he wasn't sent to a place where his cover would be easily blown off but to a widow's company. As such, Elijah was hidden from the danger that Ahab has intended for him. Ahab sees Elijah as the culprit to blame and one to be apprehended for the drought. He never saw his fault nor come to repentance. Rather, he was looking for him to blame and behead for sure. 

What is the miracle here if not the word, "turn thee Eastward." When Elijah found his bearing after the Lord's compass had given him direction, he gained correctness on where to live at that particular time. He was not only supernaturally provided for in the ongoing famine because we read that he drank from the brook and the ravens brought him bread and flesh in the morning and evenings. However, he was also protected from harm and destruction that was seeking him. 

Your security and provision are in your commanded location. If you're out of your location when God's mouth has not ordered it, you're opening yourself to vulnerabilities that may befall you. Trust God like Elijah did for continual leading to another location even if green pastures have dried from where God afore led you to. Don't take laws into your hands. Don't paddle yourself. Don't choose where to live by yourself because the place seems like a green meadow. It may be but if your window opens to Sodom or Gomorrah, you may eventually count some losses. God is not only intentional about keeping you alive, He wants to keep you in fellowship and relationship with Him also. There are certain places that if you go, you'll be too distracted and encumbered to follow or love God. At this point for those looking unto Him for direction, may you hear the voice saying, "turn thee Eastward." May you be steered in the path of righteousness. No harm! No loss!

PRAYER: I am led and I am hidden.

MOVING WITH FEAR - I Believe Series 002

Hebrews 11:7, KJV

"By faith Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; by the which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is by faith."

I concluded with a statement yesterday. "Many things in the Bible or let us say in reality would happen to test your believer's status." We've seen how Lot's sons in law are at all not believers. Believers are those who heard and promptly obeyed - acting on what they have heard. How smooth would it have been for them to have left with Lot? However to them, the preaching of the cross is just foolishness. It was high sounding to hear that Sodom was to be destroyed. They just couldn't fathom it!

God will like us to learn a lesson from the relationship of Lot's daughters and his sons in-law. My prayer is that you won't get where you as a Christian sees nobody fit of you for marriage than a heathen or unbeliever. If we were to dissect things in truth, Lot's sons in law are unbelievers if taken in comparison with her daughters. While Lot and his household believe in the reality of prediction and Sodom being destroyed, this Lot's sons in law didn't. The Bible says, "Lot seems like one who mocks to them" (Gen.19:14). They were as dead as stone when they should have been responsive - moving with fear to the saving of their souls. If Lot's daughters had eventually married these two heathens, they wouldn't have made the home atmosphere conducive for them. While Lot's daughters would believe in worship of God, they might be idol worshippers or atheists. When Lot's daughters are claiming to have had a vision signalling God's communication and warning, they'll say there's nothing like God speaking to any human being. We got wind of this through their unbelieving act and how they didn't move a bit when they heard the information that was terrifying and should have made them run. 

However, Noah isn't like these Lot's sons in law. Our verse for today says, "being warned of God of things not seen as yet, Noah moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his people, by which he condemned the world..." (Heb.11:7). 

When you don't know God - the God of the Christians - the One revealed only in the Bible, it's possible to mock when you hear something about the Bible and Jesus Christ. You'll just won't believe it except it mixes with faith in your heart. Noah heard like Lot's sons in-law heard but the difference is that, "Noah moved with fear." He so much esteemed and revered what God said as coming to pass that he went on immediately to start making plans and putting preparation in place for the coming flood. He didn't say, "it can't happen. Flood on the earth! From where will it come? How will it start? He didn't reason it. He believed God against all reason and this made him a believer. It was a high sounding truth he believed. However, the world is lost in its busy and thoughtless activities of eating and drinking (in revelry), marrying and giving in marriage until the day Noah entered the ark and knew not when the flood came and took them all away..." (Matt.24:38). 

When you hear things of the Bible, how do you react to it? Do you disdain it like Lot's sons in-law or you move with respect and act on it in total obedience like Noah? That's the mark that separates a believer from an unbeliever or else none of us would have gotten born again too? May we be this alive - moving promptly in obedience and utmost reverential fear when the Lord and His messengers speak to us His Word and His declarations. May you fall on your face where need be, confess where need be and turn a new leaf as need be. 

PRAYER: Lord, I call my heart a heart of flesh. I am responsive. I am alive to every instruction that'll be medicine to my soul and life to my spirit.

TUESDAY - 18TH MARCH, 2025

MORNING WINGS DAILY DEVOTIONAL - Olusola ADEJUMO

ARE YOU A BELIEVER? - I Believe Series 001

Genesis 19:14, KJV

"And Lot went out, and spake unto his sons in law, which married his daughters, and said, Up, get you out of this place; for the LORD will destroy this city. But he seemed as one that mocked unto his sons in law."

Are you a believer? Being a believer doesn't only mean believing in Jesus or receiving Him into your life at the new birth. That may be the crux of your Christianity as you cannot become anything in the Christian journey without first starting as a believer - by being born again. However, a believer believes. Do you have a believing heart? Do you easily believe the truth? Do you have the trait of someone who's responsive even to high sounding truths?

It is clear that God wants to bring destruction to Sodom. The very reason for which God wanted to destroy it, for which God had sent heavenly inspectors to verify was still what the angels disguised as men experienced first hand. The dwellers are just dirty - having changed the natural usefulness of sex. Why would men desire to have sexual relations with men? Isn't that absurd? That's the sin of Sodom. If we look at our world today, we'll see that it's the sin that our world is becoming guilty of now. If you're full of perspective and understanding, you'll see that God didn't wipe out Sodom until they have violated sexual boundaries that the Lord set. Violating sexual boundaries isn't a sin that the Lord takes for granted. It is a sin that even points heavily to the judgement to come just like its doers in the days of Lot were all destroyed. 

However, that's not where I'm going. Did you observe that in wanting to save Lot and his household, the angels he accommodates unawares tell him to quickly bring out his people from the city if he had any. That's the benefit of entertaining strangers. Like we saw yesterday, you might entertain angels unawares. 

Genesis 19:12, KJV

"And the men said unto Lot, Hast thou here any besides? son in law, and thy sons, and thy daughters, and whatsoever thou hast in the city, bring them out of this place:"

The moral is this. From inception, God always separates between the wicked and the righteous. Psalm 125:3-4 says, "the rod of the wicked will not fall upon the land allotted to the righteous, so that the righteous will not put forth their hands to iniquities." "When the wicked are being taken, you'll only watch with your eyes and see the reward of the wicked" (Psalm 91:7-8). 

Now, the only persons that Lot could claim to have in the city were his sons in law. They are the men who'll marry his daughters. They might have been engaged to them already. However, these men refused to heed the warning of Lot. They are not believers! A believer believes in truth even when it is high sounding. Is it not high sounding that Jesus died, resurrected and ascended to heaven to live forever (Acts 1:11)? Don't you think it is high sounding that when Jesus died, He fought death to declare His victory over death (I Cor.15:55)? Don't you think so? Yet, you believed. Somehow, you had the faith to believe and at the end, that makes you a believer. However, these sons in law of Lot refused. The Bible says, "Lot seems to them a mocker" or in a better language, "a comedian." They see him as someone who's drunk or has gone mad. How could he say God is visiting this city with judgement and that they needed to leave ASAP! Their thoughts are, "how possible? We've lived in this city all our life. What has been happening has not just been happening? How's it that it's now that one destruction wants to come? All is fallacy! Fallacy it is!" As such, Lot seems to them as he that is drunk.

This is the ingredient that is lacking in the world. This is why the preaching of the cross is foolishness to many out there (I Cor.1:18). I've seen people mock Jesus, His death and the gospel while sharing it with them. Some would even tell you, such things made no sense. This earth will last forever. If we humans don't last forever on earth, what assures you that the earth itself would last forever. Has faith and the ability to believe being destroyed or bastardized in you? God wants that to be repaired. I'm such a believer of what is faithfully reported that at times, people call me gullible. However, I'm not. The Holy Spirit has warned me of dangers that I believed which separated me from the experiences of many others. Brothers and sisters, are you a believer still? Are you still believing or there are things that are too hard for you to believe in the Bible? Do you think angelic visitation is a fallacy? Do you think healing and miracles are false? Then, you need to confront that in the light of the scriptures. When the preacher preaches and what he says turns no one but he seems like a mocker to them, it's because those he's speaking to are unbelievers that faith didn't miss with the message in their hearts. May you remain a believer at heart O ye Christian! May you believe in God when He speaks to you! May you even move with fear when He speaks. May you escape the damnation to come even as you believe in Jesus' second coming and judgement awaiting our world. May you fall before your face, confess your sins and welcome Jesus into your heart. There is the born again experience!

PRAYER/CONFESSION: I'll not refuse the salvation story that'll preserve me. I believe because I'm a believer.
