WE ARE SEEING OUR SIGNS!

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."

You may not know but it is actually a kind of mercy if you can see signs that signal or prompt you to actions. In series one of this teaching, I had briefly mentioned this. Don't you think the invalids at the pool of Bethesda wouldn't have known what to do if there's no marker given them, announcing what action should follow that marker?

John 5:3, KJV

"In these lay a great multitude of impotent folk, of blind, halt, withered, waiting for the moving of the water."

Do you think they would have been that prompt - attentive and hurrying for the pool all at once if they haven't first of all sensed the water having been moved or stirred? 

I tell you, none of them would have moved an inch. However, for the moving of the water. The moving of the water is a sign set to prompt them into action. Afore then, the Bible says this about them. "In these lay a great multitude..." You see, all of them were lying fallow in inactivity there. There won't be any change until that subtle announcement that the water has been stirred is known by all. 

Their attitude and lifestyle change the moment they sight the water being moved. Irrespective of what they might have been indulging in, they let go to launch into the pool. It doesn't matter whether they were eating, bantering for something, shaving or doing whatsoever. As soon as they perceive or hear the whistle that proclaims the pool has been charged with the healing virtue, everybody goes on their track to pick their race for the pool. 

That is why I have come this morning to pray that you won't be without signs or notifications anymore. Without signs, you won't know the appropriate time for an action. As such, you will delay more than necessary. When you're without signs or notifications, you're not different from a log of wood. You just won't recognize the time that has come upon you. You won't be able to read emergencies. You cannot be spurred into action or aroused from your sleep. You'll continually maintain one attitude without changing your lifestyle or seeking to better your life. But that's not the same lot of these invalids. Though they're a bunch of impotent men, at the observation that the water has been stirred, everybody competes and seeks to take a dive for his healing. They'll drop the old attitude of inactivity and embrace the new, calling for prompt action. 

Today, I pray for you, see your signs. Let notifications come before hand to ready you. Hear the sound of the abundance of rain. Decode it for what it is so that you'll be able to warn people in your life to mount their chariots, be on their way lest the rain stops them (I Kings 18:41, 44). May you see your signs, hearing steps and feet of those who are coming your way especially as messengers of death. This way, they can be held at the door before they arrive while you think of a solution and escape (II Kings 6:32). I declare, you're no longer like them. You're not a dead or deaf child who doesn't know or see signs. Before it springs forth, you're told of it henceforth. 

PRAYER/CONFESSION: Before it springs forth, God tells me of them. I am awake and aware.

WHEN THERE'S NO MORE ANY PROPHET AMIDST US!

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."

God can put the responsibility of sensitizing His people to time and season on any of the ministry offices but the office whose it is is actually the prophet's. Even if others share in that responsibility, the office of the prophet is however installed by God to both forthtell and foretell. When it does, giving people certain updates and setting markers for them, people are readied and put in the zone of preparation to anticipate what the Lord wants to do.

When there's no more any prophet among us in our community, it'll lead to we not seeing our signs. The lament in this verse on "not seeing their signs" is because he whose responsibility and call it is to give signs and set markers (by furnishing them with information on what's coming which they should escape or put preparation on ground for and not miss) is no more. The prophet is therefore their eyes and their watcher or watch man according to that verse. He looks into the future for them and having seen something, announces beforehand so that everybody might know what to do and how to behave. 

Also, this office has an equipping to know how long. I don't know what God has promised you. I wouldn't know if there are promises or prophecies that should have come to pass in your life but which are still tarrying. This office and grace in action can tell you how long. It can read and bring you a message (setting a marker and giving you a sign) as to how near such is also. It can tell you, "you're about to catch a net breaking and ship sinking fish. Prepare!" As simple as that is, it is a sign. It makes you to be on the outlook for an opportunity soon coming your way that you must not miss. You've been told about it even before it springs up. You probably have been tutored also on how to mark or decipher it for what it is so it doesn't pass you by. You're therefore not ill prepared but ready to take all that God has prepared for you. This anointing can also move to sensitize you to the time that's right. While others are withholding to sow their seeds, it can exhort and bring you counsel to go into action and by that prosper. It can even tell you to withhold while others are rushing into what they thought is a breakthrough business but because of what it has sighted afar off. Until the crash, you may not agree. 

It is such an office - function and ministry that they lack amidst themselves. As such, they cannot see their signs. As such, all is blank with them. As such, they have no information at hand before the event arrives with which to have prepared. As such, they're forlorned with no one to shed light on their paths. Does the Bible not say in Proverbs 11:14 that, "where no counsel is, the people fall: but in the multitude of counsellors there is safety." Only that the kind of counsel it refers to is beyond the 'normal advice someone gives you but rather it means, "guidance." So, it's like saying, "without guidance, the people perish or fall." Why won't they since they have no one with the call and equipping that sets markers and gives signs for their salvation and benefit. May we stop saying in our own community and wherever we may be that we are void of signs because there is no more any prophet amidst us. If that be, people will just be walking into danger freely with no one to tell them to see what lies ahead. They wouldn't have been warned to hide themselves. You remember the Bible says, "the prudent man foresees the evil and hides himself but the simple passes on and is punished" (Proverbs 27:13). Now, let's ask, "how does the prudent foresee the evil if not but with the prophet's office setting markers and bringing signs or he (the prudent) seeing things himself?" If he had no information at hand, his action also wouldn't have been different. He also would have passed on and would have been punished. However, he does something different which was not unexpected. He hides himself! That's the advantage of seeing one's signs or having been warned! When you have signs at hand and knowing what they signal or point to, you know what to avoid or what to strike. 

I pray for you, henceforth, you won't walk in darkness. Rather, you'll begin to walk in the multitude of counsels meant for your prosperity. God will surround you with men and women with the prophet's grace and mouth so that they'll be able to guide you. Your parents, siblings, superiors etc can become this to you. Why you need this is because your safety is only guaranteed in the multitude of consistent counsel (guidance) that keeps coming to tell you where to go, what to do, what to expect and how to strike. You won't be without counsel any more. If you are, your attitude won't change and you'll remain inactive - taking no action. However, the Lord is setting you in motion today. Amen!

PRAYER: Lord, I am not void of counsel and counsellors. I refuse to be surrounded with lying spirits that'll consequently lead me into harm but upright tongue that'll bring me health and benefits.

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? What are the things that'll facilitate achieving your plans and purposes? Those precious resources are what I'm signalling you to see. 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.

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.

MORNING WINGS DAILY DEVOTIONAL - Olusola ADEJUMO

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.

MORNING WINGS DAILY DEVOTIONAL - Olusola ADEJUMO

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!
