HAPPY NEW MONTH!
WHEN THE VEIL IS DONE AWAY WITH
II Kings 7:3,KJV
"And there were four leprous men at the entering in of the gate: and they said one to another, Why sit we here until we die?"
Have you ever suddenly come to the realisation of a truth before? Before then, you were stationary. You were contented with your present prevalent situation. You might have even settled in the less and call it the best. Recently, I had a settled mind on a subject matter. I've had this settled mind for more than a month until the veil was taken off. When it was, I saw clearly that what I have settled for wasn't the best.
When the covering is taken away, understanding dawns on one. Look at these four lepers. They've been watching in front of the gate of Samaria for only God knows. No progress nor forward movement. Nobody thought contrarily to their immobility. All of them regarded it good to maintain their status. Meanwhile, something happened. They suddenly came to the realisation of a hidden truth. I call it revelation because they were permitted to see or observe what they've never given attention to before. There and then, they began to analyze their condition. They became unsatisfactory. They said:
2 Kings 7:4,KJV
"If we say, We will enter into the city, then the famine is in the city, and we shall die there: and if we sit still here, we die also. "Now therefore come, and let us fall unto the host of the Syrians: if they save us alive, we shall live; and if they kill us, we shall but die."
For sometimes (which only God knows), they've not had forward thinking which only could produce forward movement. But at that juncture where understanding of their prevalent situation flooded them, they sought to relocate.
Meanwhile relocation was never part of their consideration from the beginning. They were contented to stay at the gate though they were dying. However, they received a change in their mindset when the blindfold of their hearts was taken away.
Look at me saint. There are some directions you'll never think towards until time comes for you to implement something in that direction. Did you agree that it is the Lord's doing that stung these lepers to awareness? They were stung to notification of where to go and what to do at that particular time because God wanted to bring about the prophecy of Elisha. Without the veil being done away with, one cannot enter into his inheritance nor take it by knowledge. One will always be contented with the less. Mind you, the devil has a plan to substitute your calling with a career. So, be careful to discover where God wants you be and where you should go. Without the dispensing off of the veil, you can't look at yourself and ask WHY SIT I HERE UNTIL I DIE? Therefore, receive understanding!
PRAYER: Father of all light, let my heart be free of darkness. Always sting me to action with illumination and light unparalleled.
