YOUR PROPHETIC WORD: LET DOWN YOUR NET FOR A DRAUGHT!

LET DOWN YOUR NETS FOR A CATCH

That's what I just heard. I heard, "tell them to let down their nets for a catch."

Luke 5:4, KJV

"Now when he had left speaking, he said unto Simon, Launch out into the deep, and let down your nets for a draught."

God doesn't make announcements or pronouncements without having sighted something. A dog does not bark if he hasn't seen a thing. So, when God told Peter to, "let down his nets for a draught", it was because of what Jesus had seen and knew was coming or will soon happen. 

Peter is no longer here but you are here. I heard this word concerning you. It came fresh to my spirit. I heard God say, "let down your nets for a draught."

It means, "ready for an opportunity." As it's occurring to my mind, you've sown somewhere and God sees that a harvest is coming. That's what He's readying you for. So, when He said, "let down your nets for a draught", it may mean, "pay attention to your journey as you go henceforth so that your harvest doesn't pass you by."

If Peter didn't get ready or prepare for the foretold harvest coming by letting down his nets for a catch, though the catch was there (in the water) at that time, it would have scattered and gone.

God may also be speaking to some people that He wants to bless or make to reap the reward of their service to Him. He really doesn't want them to miss it. He loves them that much. So, before it springs up, He announces it to them. So, He's announcing beforehand, "let down your nets for a catch."

Why many miss opportunities is because they aren't aware of it. You'll hear such say, "but I didn't know." But God wants you to know: to be aware on the matter that concerns you. There's a Yoruba proverb that says, "O n bo, O n bo, awon la n dede."

It means, "what is foretold should be prepared for." If you have an announcement or receive a notice or gossip that your mother in law is visiting, that notice is to prepare you. A married lady would know what to put in place before her arrival.

If the mother in law is a difficult one, the lady knows she needs to prepare her mind and trust God for things. She'll know she'll need to commit things into God's hands while resolving to please her. Notices are to prepare you. God is still repeating it and I'm feeling it. He's saying, "let down your nets for a catch." Simply put, this is harvest time. Harvest is on the way! The fishes are whirling and gathering! The harvest is being put together (just for you). Your reward is at hand but you need a basket, a net, a vessel and preparation and readiness to draw it into your ship. Else it slips!

The preparation you put in place for what you're expecting depends on what you're readying for.

I'm hearing a complementing Bible verse in my spirit now. 

II Kings 4:3, KJV

"Then he said, Go, borrow thee vessels abroad of all thy neighbours, even empty vessels; borrow not a few."

That's Elisha speaking to that widow with little oil in the jar. He instructed her to "go and borrow vessels and not a few" just for the sake of the harvest He had perceived in the spirit coming her way.

"Go borrow vessels of all your neighbors, not a few."

What was Elisha saying? "Something is coming your way; continuous flow of oil is coming your way. You can't sense or see it but I could sense it. I'm even smelling it. As such, go and gather what is needed to harvest it and collect it to the fullest of the opportunity that'll be sent.

God doesn't want your collection of it not to equal or correspond with what He'll send. So, borrow vessels not a few!

His saying that you should borrow vessels not a few is not only an instruction but a warning. A warning that if you don't have vessels on ground, the (coming) oil will be wasted. 

Peter didn't know of the harvest to come neither did this woman discern the same too. But Jesus could discern what was coming his own way and Elisha knew also what was coming this woman's way. So, they said, "get ready. Let down your nets for a catch and get vessels ready for the oil!"

I perceive another thing in the spirit. God wants to make some of you prophets - watchmen for others. He wants to make you that man who senses, knows, perceives even before it arrives and can sensitize men to ready themselves for it. 

In these two places I just quoted from, Jesus could predict a harvest coming Peter's way though has not manifested and Elisha also could predict a coming blessing of the flowing oil even when it hasn't manifested.

Just on that story alone, I'm hearing a number of verses in my spirit. I'll quote them all and use it as the Spirit of God intends.

I Kings 18:41, "And Elijah said unto Ahab, Get thee up, eat and drink; for there is a sound of abundance of rain."

II Kings 6:32, "But Elisha sat in his house, and the elders sat with him; and the king sent a man from before him: but ere the messenger came to him, he said to the elders, See ye how this son of a murderer hath sent to take away mine head? look, when the messenger cometh, shut the door, and hold him fast at the door: is not the sound of his master's feet behind him?"

Did you read these two recent verses I posted? First, Elijah told Ahab to run for shelter ere the rain (that has not come but which will come which he has heard and perceived) stops him. Imagine that! He was fulfilling this scripture.

Isaiah 42:9, "Behold, the former things are come to pass, and new things do I declare: before they spring forth I tell you of them."

He was fulfilling..."before they spring forth, I tell you of them."

The same was manifested by Elisha. He knew a messenger of death was coming for him even when that one was still on his way to his base. He hasn't even arrived! Due to having information before hand therefore, he puts preparation in place and escapes..

God wants to make you "seer" and "mouth" for men. You'll see, perceive and hear before hand so as to be able to declare to them what the Lord is doing (that's on the way of being manifested as tangibilities). 

Begin to perceive! Begin to see! Begin to hear! Begin to understand even before the action! Events will no longer catch you unawares! Know things! Receive the mind of Christ and operate by the same!

Jesus manifested that mind. He told Peter, "let down your nets for a catch." Was it for nothing he said that? Obviously no. We knew that because we saw what became of Peter when he heeded that instruction. The same happened to that widow woman who was instructed and warned of gathering vessels in preparation for her coming harvest. 

She was even given specifics - "don't gather a few vessels." That was because what God wanted to do was not minimal or small. The harvest would be terrible and much to bear in few vessels.

Jesus knew what harvest was coming Peter's way when He also instructed him to, "let down his NETS for a catch." Not one NET but NETS (all he has or uses to fish) for the harvest would be much. So, you too, release your faith! Let down your nets for a catch. A harvest is coming your way and some of you know it already. You know what that is. God is saying, "put preparation in place fully so that you can have it all lest some slip back into the waters."

Listen to God's anointed servant, the one whose mouth God has polished like the arrow's. "A harvest is coming your way!"

I say, "the season has come upon you. The season when your oil will flow without ceasing. The hour when the fishes you have looked for all the night (without sighting one) would gather for you. 

You're reaping where you have failed till now and that's because it's God's Word aiding and abating you this time around. You're reaping with it the additional return of all your vain labours of the past. That's why Peter harvested fishes that could account for his last night toil yet just a catch. Just one catch!

You'll experience a return and harvest that'll complement for all past efforts and failures. It'll make you fall on your knees and worship the Lord Jesus, even like Peter did. The awe will shake you. 

You'll inclose a great multitude of fishes. Your net(s) will break and your ship(s) will sink. 

I hear the sound of an abundance of rain. I am hearing footsteps at the door.

I'm perceiving a harvest coming your way. Release your faith for it sons and daughters of God. Your faith will take it! Don't waver! Don't be like a double minded man. Such don't receive from God. They always lose out as they are tossed to and fro. 

It's your faith that'll take what God is bringing. Let down your nets for a catch. Release all your faith. Don't withhold. Don't!

AN EASTER MESSAGE: ROLLED BACK AND SAT UPON!

ROLLED BACK AND SAT UPON!

Do you believe the Lord Jesus Christ, "has borne your griefs, carried your sorrows?" Do you anyway know and affirm that, "he was wounded for your transgressions, bruised for your iniquities: the chastisement of your peace laid upon him; and that with his stripes you are healed?" [Isa.53:4-5].

You may know theoretically and not have learnt or proven it by experience. However, those are the things Jesus' sufferings, death, burial and resurrection did for us. And even many more! They are your vital benefits but you may discount them and not draw them into your life.

Today, God wants to offer you enlightenment for short. In a passage of the Bible, we read the story of certain caring women of Jesus' team rushing to His grave but with one concern, "who'll roll away the stone for us." They took thought for that since the rock carved and put as a cover on the tomb's mouth (or entrance) isn't what they have strength to roll away. But what was their experience? They found out that it has been rolled away. An angel it should be (a being that excels in strength) had done that before their arrival.

Mark 16:3-4, KJV

"3 And they said among themselves, Who shall roll us away the stone from the door of the sepulchre? 4 And when they looked, they saw that the stone was rolled away: for it was very great."

Now, coming into another book of the Synoptic Gospel, we can see God's angel rolling back the stone on Jesus' tomb and then sitting on it. Not only was "the challenge, problem, sickness, affliction, death, reproach, sin etc" rolled back or away but it was taken by he who rolled it away and sat on (Jesus in this case). Read!

Matthew 28:2, KJV 

"And, behold, there was a great earthquake: for the angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat upon it."

Did you read, "and sat on it." It was an angel who descended from heaven in this verse, rolled back the stone and sat upon it but that is the exact thing Jesus did spiritually for us. The story of this angel 'rolling back and sitting on' just metaphorically describes what Jesus did. As a matter of fact, the process is the same. Jesus descended from heaven, having taken on flesh (Matt.2:1, John 1:14, Phil.2:6-8). He was therefore born as a human. He then rolled back the stone (by doing all the things we earlier read in Isa. 53:4-5 and many more for us) when he had suffered, was crucified, dead and had risen. He not only carried our sorrows, borne our griefs or took our sins upon Himself, He rolled it away and this shows in the forgiveness and offer of the righteousness He gave us (Isa.1:18). 

1 Peter 2:24, KJV

"Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed."

Our sins and other evils of ours that he bore paints the image of "rolling and sitting on." When that angel "sat on" that stone, it means having, possessing or taking it for himself. For short, He keeps them all with Himself. He collected 'those concerns and evil fate of ours" and made them His. He collected them, carried them, and possessed them for Himself that we may be free, sinless and new. 

God has not only rolled the reproach away, He is also sitting on it now. He has borne it all by Himself. "Sitting upon something" also shows sovereignty over that thing. It shows your mastering it. It portrays you as the conqueror and that thing as the conquered. That's absolute victory. The same way, David stood over Goliath in victory (I Sam.17:51)! The same way, we were promised we'll tread or trample over serpents and scorpions (Lk.10:19). All these verses show absolute victory over something! Christ's is absolute victory over death, sin and consequences of sin. He rolled it back and sat upon it (taking it for Himself and exercising authority over death).

During the silent period of Jesus in the grave, He fought with death and conquered death. Death is therefore swallowed up in victory. We then can jointly say, "O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?"(1 Corinthians 15:55). Jesus is now 'sitting' on death, having rolled it back. So, we are no longer fearful of death. We have hope of eternal life with Christ. 

Say, "...Jesus (not an angel now) rolled back the heavy stone of sin, sickness, diseases, ancestral curse, fear of death, death itself etc and sits on them all in total and absolute victory. 

His victory is our victory. What He does for us is our inheritance and heritage as co-heirs with Him. We therefore live in this knowledge and effect them in our daily living even when we perceive a contrariness that the devil might want to put on us through his lies or deception. 

Look, He (Jesus Christ, not an angel now) has rolled it all away and sat on it. He took it all. He took the shame, the reproach! That's why he that rolled away the stone was also the one who possessed it by sitting on it and having it for himself. It shouldn't harm you any longer. That's because it has been sovereignly subjugated by Christ Jesus, the conqueror of death and all evils. 

As we celebrate Easter, come into this understanding and live in this revelation. Whenever you perceive sickness, fear of death or whatsoever being brought back to your mind, body or into your situation but which Jesus already finalized by rolling away and sitting on, it's time to stand firm in your faith to resist it in the multitude of the knowledge you have in Christ Jesus. 

What has been rolled back and sat on is not intended to come back and hurt or haunt you. Even then, Satan would still want to deceive you with their potency. But, you must know such finished works of Christ that neutralizes those afflictions Satan may want to recall in your life. You must believe in those finished works, affirm them and live them out.

It's possible because the life you now live in the flesh is lived by faith in the Son of God who died and gave His life for you (Gal.2:20). Let God therefore live in/through you. Let Him breathe in you and step by step exhibit and act this victory continuously through you. That's when you can live over sin and all satanic evils. In essence, that verse asserts God teaching/helping us to live in our victorious new life! He'll teach you! He'll help you!

Remember, He (Jesus and not an angel) has rolled back the 'stone' and sat on it! It's an act of absolute victory. Conquered and never to rise! Keep it that way!

Happy Easter Brethren!

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.

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.
