THOSE WHO SAY, "IS HE NOT RIGHTLY NAMED JACOB?" - The Mystery Of Election Series 001

Genesis 27:36, KJV

"And he said, Is not he rightly named Jacob? For he hath supplanted me there two times: he took away my birthright; and behold, now he hath taken away my blessing. And he said, hast thou not reserved a blessing for me?"

When this series on election came to me, it came when I remembered what could have been the accusations of someone who might have thought I took - snatched for myself the office (position) that should have been his and probably married the woman that could have probably been his as well. 

He could have accused me of having stolen from him twice for obvious reasons. That's what brought this verse that I quoted above. He never knew that I myself never thought or planned to have those things he said I had for myself. Rather, God chose me for them and them for me. Election made it so and not that I intentionally cheated him out of anything that was his to have. 

Have you ever been elected by God before? Have you ever heard people protest saying, "This is unjust! Why should he be chosen?"

Until you experience the clamouring of the people and their protests, you may never know you can even petition God to give what He has given to you to them. Why? Because you want to be at peace. Because you don't want to be seen and taken as an enemy who snatched what is humanly expected to be someone's. 

That's the case with Jacob who was chosen above his twin brother, Esau. Esau cried. You can feel the emotion, pain and disappointment in his voice. He was begging for answers and as well raising an accusatory voice as to why everything works for Jacob and not him. 

Have you been where it seems someone is always favored above or over you before? You might need to probe if it is divine election that has made it so. If it is, don't topple or attack it. What God has set in place, you shouldn't be found reconsidering it lest you're found to be kicking against God. 

Esau says, "Is he not rightly named Jacob?"

Look at what he's blaming. Divine election is at work but he couldn't see that larger picture. Rather, he began to blame it on Jacob's crookedness and smartness. No! That he ever outsmarted Esau in the first place and it worked was because God allowed it by divine permission. God allowed it because it'll serve His own purpose of having ordained Jacob to continue the lineage and pass the covenant blessings down the line. 

"Is he not rightly named Jacob? First he supplanted me of my birthright and now he has robbed me of my blessings", Esau cries. 

What is this? Is it true that Jacob is at fault? There's no one who hears or reads this verse who will not sympathize with Esau. He has lost something that should be his and he's all blaming it on Jacob who stole it from him. He said, "He was named Jacob fittingly for that."

Election always comes with a sense of injustice to the humans watching but what can a pot say to the potter, "Why have you made me thus?" We are God's creatures and He, our Creator. He does with us what He likes. He chooses whom He wants and walks with any He ordains. Not because of works or anything they have done but that the purpose of His election might come to pass. 

Until you're elected, you won't understand why people fight to be elected. The reason is because according to natural order, the elected ought to be bypassed. The first born in Esau ought to retain the birthright and be the blessed one, however it goes to Jacob, the twin brother or younger brother if we were to look at their birth order. 

People will try to explain it away. They'll say, "Is he not rightly named this and that? Is it not because he's their favourite?" However, the discerning will see God's election. They'll see God's perpetuation at work that chose a man that doesn't believe or think he himself will be elected. That's why such elected men can't boast also. Rather, they are pressed by the demands, responsibilities and calling placed on them. What they must not turn out to be is a failure who didn't fulfill why God raised them. 

Brethren, election may not affirm our natural sense of justice and demands but it sure will fulfill God's purpose. Don't be caught fighting it. Rather, align with it and be a beneficiary of God's election even when you're not the elected. Locate yourself in the prophecies of the prophesied and you'll see that an atmosphere shall be created for you also. Rather than fighting someone's election, why don't you find what God has called, ordained and also elected you for? Why have I said this? Because you too are also called and ordained for something. 

PRAYER: Lord, I submit to your election. May I discover my election and work with God on that.

COME OVER INTO MACEDONIA AND HELP US!

Acts 16:9, KJV

"And a vision appeared to Paul in the night; There stood a man of Macedonia, and prayed him, saying, Come over into Macedonia, and help us."

The Lord has vomited a lot of teachings over the years through this Macedonia call event. However, there's a fresh perspective I'm having today - and that's because the Lord is granting it. 

When this man appears to Paul and cries, "Come over into Macedonia and help us", it takes a listener and deep observer to see that the call is an urgent and hot-headed call. 

Something distressful is ongoing. Macedonia is a field ripe for harvest. It has needs that have to be met. Some people are already sinking and dying in their sins in that region. Some are already like ripe fruits, prepped and ready to be harvested. 

In view of all these, the call came, "Come over into Macedonia and help us."

It is an urgent call. A call pushing for their immediate departure. A call asking and pleading that they'll not linger or delay any further. Through this Macedonian call, we have every reason to believe that because the Bible says, "There stood a man of Macedonia and prayed him, saying..."

The Macedonian man who appeared acknowledged their needs and that's why he pleaded that they would sail once and for all to Macedonia. Nothing unclear about the call. It is straight to the point demand - "Come over into Macedonia and help us."

Who's hearing this call? Is anybody there that the Holy Spirit is placing a place in his heart? Is anybody there that God wants to move or settle somewhere for the sake of the needy and those who are spiritually dead? This is not a call that can be postponed. It is an immediate call that must be acted on. The timing is right as scheduled and allowed by God. You cannot rest on your oar now. Now, the Lord is calling and He's saying, "Come over into XYZ and help them."

You have to go because that call is your launcher. You cannot say you'll go later, it has to be now. That is a distress signal or pyre that has been lit. You must immediately sail to save the harbour before it burns to the ground. 

"Come over into Macedonia and help us" is the call. It means, "Leave where you are now!" As God plans it, attention is shifting and has shifted from where you've been. All attention must now be focused on this new missionary field. It must now be given to this newly designated place. It is a must, "You must come over!" You must not love that place and stay in it because of familiarity or whatever. You must rather, "Go over" because your ministration is needed as capable of bringing help to people. 

May we not be deaf and dumb children. When called, may we realize the details of the call. May we see the responsibilities on us and immediately give to the call what the call demands. May we know the heartbeat of God beyond what appears. May understanding be supplied to us. 

 Acts 16:10, KJV

"And after he had seen the vision, immediately we endeavoured to go into Macedonia, assuredly gathering that the Lord had called us for to preach the gospel unto them."

You see, Paul and his team didn't delay. They could interpret the call for what it is. They know it is a distress call. A call for an immediate helpline. Any delay is dangerous. So, they endeavoured to immediately go into Macedonia assuring that the Lord has called them. 

Souls may be wasting because you're delaying. God does not want the death of sinners but that they repent and receive Jesus. You are the one they're waiting for. A family may be waiting for you that way. It may be a friend or even a group of people. "Come over to Macedonia and help us." Will you cross or stay with your familiar and cherished territory?

PRAYER: Lord, give me understanding to interpret Your communication to me beyond what appears. I'm obedient to Your call and live as one bound by it.

WAITING FOR YOUR MANIFESTATION!

Acts 8:5, KJV

"Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and preached Christ unto them."

Wherever hypocrisy has operated till now, may it be expressly exposed. Meanwhile, God is counting on you. He is waiting for you. God has no legs and arms on earth except the ones we present of ourselves to Him. We are His legs and arms. Nobody can know love if we Christians do not extend love and nobody can receive healing if we keep it to ourselves. 

It doesn't matter what power has held people down till now. It ought to be that your arrival will lead to the end of such operational false power. The arrival of Philip ended the reign of Simon the sorcerer in Samaria. 

Let's look at Philip. When the church scatters, Philip goes to Samaria. What he has learnt and received are all in him. However, it didn't let it lay fallow. Philip begins to put it to work. I once told someone, "There's nowhere any Christian ought to go where he or she cannot start a church or lead spiritual operations for the kingdom on his own." The fact that the apostles or the Church in Jerusalem has done a good job tutoring people like Philip shows in what work he could do all alone when he found himself in Samaria. He singlehandedly opened the place to the gospel. The Bible could only testify to the results of that by saying, "And the people with one accord gave heed unto those things which Philip spake, hearing and seeing the miracles which he did" (Acts 8:6, KJV). 

God is counting on you too irrespective of where you find yourself or what might have taken you outside your familiar territory. It should be that as you're scattered or go, you'll go with the gospel of the kingdom, manifesting the diverse works of Jesus Christ. 

Philip not only preached, healed but he also brought on its knees the ruling power and authority of Simon the sorcerer over Samaria. May I say, you are the salvation of people. Jesus has died for us all as the salvation of the world but He won't come down to effect that in people's lives. It's you and I who'll do that. Are we doing that at our work places, neighbourhood and wherever we find ourselves. Are we effecting his death and the fact that He says, "All power in heaven and on earth has been given to Him" (Matt. 28:18)?

PRAYER: I am your mouth, arms, legs Jesus. I speak for you and I have your results.

LEARNING SUBMISSION!

Acts 9:10, KJV

"And there was a certain disciple at Damascus, named Ananias; and to him said the Lord in a vision, Ananias. And he said, Behold, I am here, Lord." 

God wants you to learn submission but more importantly by prompt obedience. The Bible says there's a disciple in Damascus. To him the Lord says, "Ananias." Guess his response, "Here am I Lord."

Enough of people that God calls who don't appear. Enough of people God calls who are nowwhere to be found. God wants people who whether asleep or awake will say promptly to His call and demand, "Here I am."

You know my heart is soaked with a burden. And the burden is, "Don't get to a place where you're consistently bothered to change something or work over something in your life."

That cannot be good looking on you always. God is patient. He'll make demands on you for your refinement and so that you might walk in bigger consecration that can recommend you for bigger power and glory with Him. Be a vessel that yields on time. 

There will be two ways to test this on you. One, the Holy Spirit will keep convicting you of sin, righteousness and judgement. He'll keep calling you to come and scale new spiritual heights of growth into maturity with Him. 

Another way is that people around you, especially authorities and those you have submitted to will on God's behalf make demands on you too. You might want to go out as a wife and your husband might tell you, "Why is this clothe revealing your cleavage. Go and change it." As simple as that is, that's God making demands on you through a human vessel. Don't be a spouse who argues and argues until you win the argument on what you're doing that's not morally right that should be changed or outgrown. 

Some men have died in accidents or setups because they refused to hear the persuasive voice of the Holy Spirit in their wives for instance. You may be a child, you may be a sibling to someone you're staying with. God will be using those authorities to make demands and enforce God's will on you. Yield! Be a vessel that yields. Be a vessel that surrenders and grows. Not out of murmuring but out of understanding that this is for your good. Refinement might look like a rebuke on your body or flesh but it'll yield the peaceful fruit of the Holy Spirit later. It'll make you look fine for the Holy Spirit's use. 

The Bible says this and it's important we heed it altogether. 

Genesis 6:3, KJV

"And the LORD said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh..."

Did you see that? Imagine God saying, "My Spirit shall not always strive with man..."

You see, God will come for you. He will seek to reshape, refine, rebuke, correct or admonish you. Hearing is what matters. If you're not a listener, after many attempts, the Holy Spirit or even those authorities could leave you alone to your vile thinking and behavior. And I tell you, that's the road to destruction. Never get where authorities in your life don't have strength and the moral right to call you to correction. Don't hamper them! Free them and make their input something they feel wanted to contribute by how quick you yield or agree with God through them. 

If a spouse continues to refute the truth that his wife or husband keeps telling, one day, that man or woman will stop telling those truths altogether. She'll or he'll just get to a place of weariness where there'll be a resolution in her heart, "Let him do whatever he likes. It's his life." Such people that are left to themselves will face hurt. 

I pray that you won't be left to rot. Rather, you'll hear God and heed him. Rather, when demanded or called, you'll say, "Here I am."

PRAYER: Break me and remould me. I submit under Your mighty hands that I might be later lifted.

LET TIME TELL!

Acts 5:38-39, KJV

"38 And now I say unto you, Refrain from these men, and let them alone: for if this counsel or this work be of men, it will come to nought:  

39 But if it be of God, ye cannot overthrow it; lest haply ye be found even to fight against God."

When I returned from the compulsory one year service to fatherland and said, "God has called me to flag a ministry and do certain details appointed to me", people doubted. 

I had people who were sincere in their questioning me and wanted to help me set things straight. Meanwhile, I also had those who responded with sarcasm and mockery. Some said, "Let him alone. It is the fire in Nigeria's Christian Corpers' Fellowship (NCCF) that he caught that was burning in him. It'll soon burn out." Another, "All these ministries after National Youth Service Corp (NYSC) are not trustworthy. We've seen how some ended who held that claim. We can predict this one also."

However, what they did not know is that Morning Wings Ministry will beg to differ. What they did not know is that I've always carried the call and I've been walking in its consciousness even if I had no title or had it formalized into a ministry. What they didn't know is that God had even made demands on me before leaving campus which I pacified until after my service year in order to be unencumbered. It was for all these I took time to hear God on what he would have me do as soon as I graduated. Instead of going in search of petty jobs as I awaited mobilization for service, I rather joined myself to an anointed minister, in the person of Venerable Johnson Oyebode whom God had afore told me about even before his arrival and transfer to St. Peter's Anglican Church, Ijagun, Ogun State. 

There will be liars and there'll be truth tellers. There'll be those who God has not made demands on, pretending to be so. However, that's not me. Every executive member who served with me during my second tenure as president in Anglican Students' Fellowship (ASF) TASUED then knew this truth that Bro. Sola would repeatedly say, "God would be sending him to Nicopolis." They know what Nicopolis is. A place God would have me winter and get trained for ministry under the hand of an anointed, chosen and trusted minister. And so it happened. 

So, coming with a ministry after NYSC experience was not a mere carryover of what happened to me in Katsina NCCF. It was because I rather sought God during that year personally and God had burdened me with the details of my calling (though I had known I had a call before then)"

So, it was in waiting for three months I received the name of the ministry and what God would have me do. Since then till now, the ministry is only growing and becoming a bigger concern to the devil. It has not stopped and I have not gotten tired myself. My fuel hasn't run out as some men predicted. 

Just like Gamaliel said, "Refrain from these men and let them alone; for if this counsel or work be of men, it will come to nought but if it be of God, you cannot overthrow it; lest you're found even to fight against God."

Except you want to offend God through what you say against me, you can't overthrow what God has called forth by His mouth. This work is not my imagination, plan or cook up. It came from heaven. God called for it and He found me to do it. 

Time has tell. Morning Wings Ministry is already over a decade yet nobody has seen me do an anniversary. I've mastered wisdom until the day is dawn. Brethren, time will tell indeed and separate between what is fake, false and genuine. However, let yours be a work that comes from God. John has one testimony that differentiates him from many pseudo ministers of his days. Listen to it and let that define you.

John 1:6, KJV

"There was a man sent from God, whose name was John." 

Are you?

PRAYER: May I not run the race that you have not commanded. Help me to understand your calling on my life and heed it.

DETAILS OF YOUR CALLING

Acts 9:15, KJV

"But the Lord said unto him, Go thy way: for he is a chosen vessel unto me, to bear my name before the Gentiles, and kings, and the children of Israel:"

Every calling is like a capsule. That capsule contains certain details. Those details are given or determined by the Lord. I believe strongly that what has not been allocated to you, you cannot do. Even if you strive to do it, it won't come easy and if you eventually get it done, it'll be dead work for you because it was never counted for you to do. 

After this teaching, you'll see reasons why you should stay in your lane and not break rank. God has given and determined for everybody what they should cover and how far they should go. Consider the verse we have above. 

First, God affirms Saul (later Paul) as a chosen instrument unto Him. What this means is that Paul is not an interloper. He didn't come there to poke nose. He was called. He was chosen to come and do certain things for God. With being chosen comes the instrumentality of the anointing that'll make those works prosperous in his hands. He couldn't have done anything with the arm of the flesh or by presumption.

Then, the Lord begins to disclose certain things on the calling/ministry of Paul that he would be known for. He's to bear Jesus' name before the Gentiles and kings and the children of Israel. Unlike Peter who mostly stayed in the Jerusalem church, Paul was a traveling minister. He took the gospel to new territories - the Gentile nations just as it was said of him and fulfilled in all these places (Acts 13:46-47, Rom.11:13, Gal.2:7-8). Also, in the process of being tried, he stood and brought the gospel before kings as earlier said of him when he was receiving his mandate (Acts 25:23-24, Acts 26:1-2, Acts 24:24-25, Acts 25:6-12, II Tim.4: 16-17) without neglecting witnesses before the children of Israel also (Acts 13:5, 14-16, 17:1-2, 28:17). 

You wonder why some people have special open ministry doors to the government, influential people, children, the addicted, force members etc, it may be because when they were being harnessed for their calling, those were subject matters God would have them cover. There's no calling without an intended audience or purpose(s). God raises and sends callings to people for diverse reasons as they have needs. He knows who is best suited to meet certain needs of certain people at a particular time. 

All these should make it clear to you that you cannot copy another man's calling or the details of his calling. If you do, you'll leave the details of your own calling undone and be ineffective in the other which was not given to you to do. All the details in Paul's calling were so much fulfilled that the accompanying suffering that was meant to follow his ministry also followed him.

Acts 9:16, KJV

"For I will shew him how great things he must suffer for my name's sake."

Indeed, he fulfilled all those severally (II Cor. 11:23-27, Acts 14:19-20, Acts 16:22-23, Eph. 3:1). 

You see, everything was determined for him at the beginning. What differentiates his calling from any other apostle's calling are those. It was God who measured and determined for him what to do. Thanks to God that he ate all and finished the meat of He that sent him. Thanks that he could later open his mouth to say, "I have finished my race" (II Tim. 4:6-8). A man who has finished his race or course has fulfilled every bit and part of his calling. This is who you should be. A man who goes all the way doing everything written, prophesied and declared of him. None should be missing - even when there are portions of suffering for you to drink. 

PRAYER: I embrace my calling and accept it with trust. I fulfill the details of my own calling and finish it. I shall not do another.

CAUGHT IN THE THICKET AND WITHIN REACH

Genesis 22:13, KJV

"And Abraham lifted up his eyes, and looked, and behold behind him a ram caught in a thicket by his horns: and Abraham went and took the ram, and offered him up for a burnt offering in the stead of his son."

You've seen according to John 3:27 that unless things are descended for you or voluntarily given to you first, you just cannot have them. It is not how tall you are physically that makes you possess things or have them. No! It is God's to give or release to you. The Bible has this to say to that effect. 

Psalms 104:28-29, KJV

"28 That thou givest them they gather: thou openest thine hand, they are filled with good.  

29 Thou hidest thy face, they are troubled..."

It is what God gives us we gather. When He hides His face, we are immediately troubled, pessimistic on where our provision will come from. 

This tells us that all of creation takes survival from God. If God closes His store, they'll be troubled and thrown into a frenzy. 

However, you're receiving help today. It is the help God gives to Abraham, his friend after testing his heart and affirming his obedience. When God tells Abraham to look up and not sacrifice Isaac, God's provision draws near. 

It is a ram! God has provided a sacrifice like Abraham earlier assured and spoke in faith to Isaac - "God will provide for Himself a lamb." However, God is full of compassion and much consideration. He knows Abraham cannot pursue or exercise himself strenuously to run after a ram. So, God devised a means. He held the ram in a thicket for Abraham. This now leaves Abraham to only approach, untie and sacrifice it in place of Isaac. So, strenuous effort is eliminated. 

This is what God is doing for you. He's bringing it near you. What is meant for you shall be caught in a thicket for you. Blessings will not be on the run and on motion, distancing themselves from you. Rather, they'll be within your reach. They'll be intentionally lowered down for you. 

PRAYER: Provision, opportunities and wherewithal I need to do life is caught in a thicket for me.
