A POEM: WE'LL RUN AND NOT BE TIRED - Olusola ADEJUMO

WE'LL RUN AND NOT BE TIRED - Olusola ADEJUMO 


Eyiwunmi, you'd better tell them

that we'll run and not be wearied.


We are not of those who shrink back.

We see to the end,

laying to rest that which we have started.


We shall give no sleep to our eyelids,

and no slumber shall breach our eyes.

When wearied to trek,

we shall rejuvenate and be born again.

With wings,

we'll fly the remnant distance as newborns.


We're not like one chasing nothing.

The punches we throw are jaw-dropping.

Even at shadow boxing,

it is rigorosity we cast—binding the body with the spell of training.


We can't die, because our inner man resists death's wishes.

We will our lives,

authoring the scripts we play.

Imperishable particles are we;

we trouble their sight like alligator pepper,

infiltrating their coast like hordes of microorganisms,

yet achieving like a colossus.


Olusola ADEJUMO,

M'Wings.

Read The Analysis & Explanation 

Title: “We’ll Run and Not Be Tired”

The title immediately signals resilience, faith, and relentless pursuit. It echoes scriptural undertones (Isaiah 40:31), setting a spiritual framework of strength against exhaustion.

Stanza 1

“Eyiwunmi, you'd better tell them / that we'll run and not be wearied.”

Meaning: A direct address — you invoke a witness or confidant (Eyiwunmi) to affirm your commitment. It’s not just personal determination; it’s a public declaration.

Effect: Sets the tone of urgency and confidence, almost like a war cry against doubt.

Stanza 2

“We are not of those who shrink back. / We see to the end, / laying to rest that which we have started.”

Meaning: You reject cowardice. Persistence is central — you finish what you begin.

Effect: The language conveys discipline and courage, anchoring the reader in your resolve.

Stanza 3

“We shall give no sleep to our eyelids / and no slumber shall breach our eyes. / When wearied to trek; / we shall rejuvenate and be born again. / With wings, / we'll fly the remnant distance as newborns.”

Meaning: This stanza pushes endurance beyond natural limits. Rest is sacrificed; when the body is weary, renewal springs forth, symbolized by wings and rebirth.

Effect: It fuses human grit with spiritual renewal, heightening the imagery from trekking (earthly struggle) to flying (divine strength).

Stanza 4

“We're not like one chasing nothing. / The punches we throw are jaw-dropping. / Even at shadow boxing, / it is rigorosity we cast — binding the body with the spell of training.”

Meaning: Your striving is purposeful, not futile. Even in practice (“shadow boxing”), effort is real, rigorous, and transformative.

Effect: You use physical training imagery (boxing, discipline) to show how preparation itself is an act of greatness.

Stanza 5

“We can't die because our inner man resists death's wishes / We will our lives — / authoring the scripts we play. / Imperishable particles are we, / we trouble their sight like alligator pepper. / Infiltrating their coast like hordes of microorganisms / Yet achieving like a colossus.”

Meaning: This is the climax. You affirm spiritual immortality — the inner man cannot be conquered. You script your destiny, resilient and sharp (like alligator pepper), small yet pervasive (like microorganisms), yet monumental in achievement (like a colossus).

Effect: This stanza blends humility and grandeur: the microscopic and the colossal coexist. It’s a bold statement of invincibility and divine empowerment.

Overall Interpretation

Your poem dramatizes endurance, resilience, and spiritual renewal. It moves from personal resolve, to rigorous discipline, to supernatural vitality, and ends with triumphant invincibility. Each stanza layers the progression: declaration → persistence → renewal → purposeful rigor → immortality and greatness.

GRAND RISING!

Numbers 23:24, KJV

"Behold, the people shall rise up as a great lion, and lift up himself as a young lion: he shall not lie down until he eat of the prey, and drink the blood of the slain."

When you're zealous, it shows how you enthusiastically draw to meet tasks. Those who are reluctant, displaying sluggishness lack energy or initiative. They may even be of the number being forced to get the job done. However, if the dew of youth is well settled on you and you're well motivated, you move and your moving or rising could only be called a grand rising. A rising that's geared towards the purpose. A rising that's aiming for the head of Goliath. A rising of vision - with heart and gaze towards accomplishment. 

The Bible says in today's reading, "behold, the people shall rise up as a great lion, and lift up himself as a young lion..." What does that suggest to you? What imagery is being painted there? It's that of one full of energy, passion, ready to meet his daily works. That's a goal-getter in there. 

It's my prayer that we won't lack in zeal. Rather we'll be fervent in spirit.

Romans 12:11, KJV

"Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord"

When you have zeal, you're propelled naturally. People would wonder what drives you but only you will know. It'll be the goals that must not slide until you've taken them down. 

A lion rises majestically and when it does, it is towards a goal. It is to hunt and eat the prey. It rouses itself up. It stirs itself up to work. Even if all is depressing around you, God is saying, encourage yourself. Great people who keep at it are those who can self encourage themselves even when all has collapsed around them. 

Speaking of David, after he had exchanged words with Goliath, the Bible recognized he didn't delay. When Goliath rises to meet him, he immediately rushes to meet him also. Ensure you too give it what it takes. You must not be a sloth - dragging your body, dragging yourself. You must lift yourself up!

I Samuel 17:48, KJV

"And it came to pass, when the Philistine arose, and came, and drew nigh to meet David, that David hastened, and ran toward the army to meet the Philistine."

Did you see that? David hastened and ran towards the army to meet the Philistine. The opportunity David recognized God has provided for him in striking down Goliath is to be taken now and David isn't indifferent about it. His drawing towards the battle to meet Goliath reveals his readiness, faith and zeal. As you go about your businesses today, don't be lacking in zeal. Draw near to/against all projects that look mammoth and gigantic in faith. God has given them into your hands. When you believe, you don't act in doubt, rather you're spurred in faith. This leads to rising up as a great lion. Such grand rising is a product of faith that exhume confidence. 

Today, yours is a grand rising propelled by faith. 

PRAYER/CONFESSION: I am active and zealous. I am fervent and internally propelled. I do not succumb to discouragement or self pity. I rise as a lion to attack my objectives and I achieve them.

MARKING AND CHERISHING A SPECIAL CHILD

Exodus 2:2, KJV

"And the woman conceived, and bare a son: and when she saw him that he was a goodly child, she hid him three months."

The jealousy anyone has over anything is visibly seen in the preciousness of that thing. May you stop regarding after the flesh, as common or as ordinary what has another side, dimension and blessing to it that you haven't seen. 

If you cannot decipher the preciousness of your child, you'll treat him or her as ordinary. As a matter of fact, you can't give him any special education - in the direction of his utmost passions, the kind that can train and harness his talents and gifts for what he should obviously become. 

Many parents might have prayed for a creative and talented child but the truth is that they just cannot decipher one. There are children who have been isolated because their uniqueness, gifting and manifestations differ from what eyes have accustomed itself with. Shouldn't be. 

On the day Moses was born, the mother could visibly sense that there was something different about him. When KJV says, "and the child is beautiful", it clearly means some other things in other versions. It means, Moses is a special or destiny child. So, what the mother smelled was a foretaste of his future and that God has a plan for this boy.

Jochebed could smell his destiny and that God may have a need for this one. For that reason, a boy who could have been yielded up was not released. Rather, they stuck out their necks for him. They took the risk and hid him for three months. Why all these efforts? That would be because of the specialness of the 'cargo' they have at hand. When you see into the spiritual side of a child - even your own child, your attitude immediately changes towards them. You don't relate with them carelessly but rather you call people to do in view of what you have discovered. That's why Moses' parents sought all means to retain him. Who does not want a special child - a child of destiny?

Taking this further, you'll also see that Miriam didn't leave for home after Moses was dropped off at the Nile.

Exodus 2:4, KJV

"And his sister stood afar off, to wit what would be done to him."

She stayed back wanting to see what would happen to the baby. That's part of the care system and cherishing that goes into discovering the worth of your kid. You'll retain a special jealousy for him or her. You won't let anyone call them some subtle diminishing names. Rather, everything will be in view of who God says they are and should be. 

Let me ask you, have you seen the other side of your child? If you haven't, you will treat them anyhow. You'll send them to go and spend their holidays with relatives who are not even born again and cannot harness them for destiny. You won't be able to protect what should be hedged. Rather, you'll leave them vulnerable until the devil goes for what makes them who they are. 

You must quickly see now and begin to give your kids the demands of their destinies. 

PRAYER/CONFESSION: My child is a beautiful child. He/she carries a special destiny and is key in the volume of God's book.

WHERE YOU SHOULD GET

Read Acts 9:1-17

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".

When you get here, it means you'll always be readily sendable. God has just found a need to meet and the next thing He does is to look for a human vessel who He could send. At a call, the response of this vessel shows he's both prepared and ready. His response also shows who he submits to and reference as Lord. Many Christians have Jesus as their Saviour but He hasn't yet become their Lord. There are things He can't touch in their lives or collect from them. They're still married to their own will - their very lord. "Ananias", God calls. "I am here", he responds". This should be the mark of a growing Christian especially one that'll bring gain to the kingdom. Like I said yesterday, we are in a kingdom where all of us are resources in God's hands. So, He administers and send us whithersoever He wills. The Bible records that Jacob sent Joseph likewise on an errand and his reply to the call shows a surrendered life and will. 

Genesis 37:13, KJV

"And Israel said unto Joseph, Do not thy brethren feed the flock in Shechem? come, and I will send thee unto them. And he said to him, Here am I". 

What did he say to him? "Here am I". God wants all of us to get here. A place where we are found for admnistering or errands as it would befit occasions. The truth is this, if you're not found for admnistering, God's work will continue. The experience of delay in the arrival of resources to he who needs it urgently may be inevitable but God will always and eventually make for Himself. The truth is that God always prepare and reserve for Himself. Don't forget that He has a reserve even if any man boasts himself as the only findable tool in His hands (I Kings 19:10, 18). God's children are scattered every where. Some are even in Saudi Arabia. To your shock, they may be in the high Imams' houses. They are secret believers who are pining for more expression of their faith but God is God to them and they aren't ashamed to call him Lord or submit to Him as Lord likewise. "Here am I" shows a man that God has found and who He can now commit to. I briefly raised the fact that you may be someone's answer of yesteryears, months or days in the first series of this devotional. God sent Elijah to the ravens (where they'll meet him at Brook Cherith). He did likewise to him when he sent him to the widow of Zarephath (I Kings 17). It means those are the two sets of people who will acknowledge him. If Elijah should mistakenly go elsewhere, he'll testify by experience that he missed it because none he goes to will acknowledge him. And if they ever feed him, it will be a blessing with reproach to him. Why? They have not been commanded and put under obligation for his sake. Those who can open up to you are those God has commanded for your sake. 

I Kings 17:4,9, KJV

"And it shall be, that thou shalt drink of the brook; and I have commanded the ravens to feed thee there". 

"9 Arise, get thee to Zarephath, which belongeth to Zidon, and dwell there: behold, I have commanded a widow woman there to sustain thee". 

If I'm not under command by my Lord as a man of the spirit, why should I come and propose to you and why should you say yes to me when you have not received afore notification about me or my coming? Why? When God calls you and you say, "here am I", it means you're found administrable. Once you're eventually administered, you immediately bear a command to someone or a place. Jacob's errand has a specific intent and people as target. Joseph was sent to his brothers. Ananias was sent to brother Saul. Who are you sent or being administered to? That should be the next question. Some of you, you have been administered and sent to someone already. Instruction has gone on your head like Abraham that God told to leave but who still stays back (Gen.12).

The fellow also has received a command of God that when you come, she should open up and receive you. However, here you are still reasoning it out. You wouldn't want to propose to that sister because 'how can it be" is what you have filled your throat with? I'm so sure you can't be wiser than God. He has seen it can be. The prayer for a life partner that you've been praying for years is now to be answered. Though you have now being sent to an address, you're refusing to go there because you have found something out about that address and target that's in disarray or in disharmony. That can never be eventually true. If it eventually is, it means God makes a mistake pairing you both together. You're proving to be beyond admnistering therefore. You're refusing not to be an answer to someone's prayer also. You aren't the only fellow who prayed. As you were trusting God for a life partner and would daily and often pray to be remembered and led, so she also prayed. She knows you but she can't come to you to initiate it. What your responsibility should be is what you have refused to do now. The truth is just that even God can administer two obedient Christians to have their paths crossed and marry. The Lord who told Ananias to go heal Saul also told Ananias that Saul had seen in a vision a man named Ananias laying his hands on him to receive his sight and be filled with the Holy Ghost. It means this two are slated to meet. You may refuse such admnistering but God can never never be stranded. You're just a vehicle which God uses to fulfill His will. You're a part player. Your obedience can be consequential but God will always remedy things for he or she who should have benefitted from your submission to prompt administering. When the brook where Elijah drank from dried for instance, didn't God send him to the widow of Zarephath? Let us say you refuse to be administered and become an answer to someone's prayer or urgent need, God will find an alternative to you. There's always an alternative by the corner, in the distant Zarephath of Zidon to every brook that dries or to anyone who says, he or she has had enough. 

Lord, what befits us is to be "here" before you always. What befits us is to eventually and in no time submit to your administering even if we have loads of complaints. Ananias also wouldn't go to Saul without a fight. He said he has heard a whole lot of things about his destructive acts especially to Your church in Jerusalem and how he has now come with permission from the authority to bind those of the Way in Damascus. However, your explanation satiates him. You only say. 

Acts 9:15-16, KJV

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

And that was all. The end of all strife for Ananias. The next verse recorded that he went. God, today, I submit, cast down all arguments and say, "whither Thou sends me, I will go; what Thou bid me, I will do. 

PRAYER: Lord, may I be sendable. I am available, send and use me Lord.

DIP AND BE CLEAN! - Beyond The Common Series 009

II Kings 5:13, KJV

"And his servants came near, and spake unto him, and said, My father, if the prophet had bid thee do some great thing, wouldest thou not have done it? how much rather then, when he saith to thee, Wash, and be clean?"

What's complicated in a simple instruction, "go and bathe in River Jordan and you shall be clean." I thought Naaman would glorify God for that but that's not how many proud or big people see things. They rather wanted to be billed. They want to pay. They would want the man of God to make demands on them. This effort is to prove themselves and it shows how carnal and fleshly they are. 

Only God knows how many days the instruction of Elisha tarried before Naaman went to carry it out. He was expecting something out of this world. He was expecting to hear a request that'll correspond with the seriousness of the healing he was looking for. If the prophets had said, give a hundred camels, goats, sheep, horses, yards of cloth, he would have had immediate regard for Elisha. 

This is the corruption in the human soul that false prophets who preach another gospel - of prosperity leveraged on to cheat people out of their resources.. They'll tell them to sow a seed that corresponds with their problems. So, the people have been accustomed to paying for something, buying something, giving something and yielding something up. It has come to be etched in their memory that something isn't for nothing. So, when it concerns salvation and the gospel of Christ, people generally do have the same perspective of it. 

There are people that the gospel of Christ has been preached to - poor and wealthy who said it was too simple. They were themselves asking what else they should do even after receiving Christ. They were willing to pay even with their possessions. That's not what the gospel demands of anyone. It is rather, "believe and be saved." The instruction of Elisha to Naaman is summarized in the words that his servants speak to him, "how much more when he says, wash and be clean."

The Bible says in Romans 10:9-10, "9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation."

Did you see? With the heart you're to believe unto righteousness (or justification) and with the mouth, confession is made unto salvation (being born again)! Jesus died for you as I've overemphasized in the course of this series. Confess your belief now!

Say, "I believe you died for me Jesus and rose again also! I believe! I believe! Come and live in my heart and cause everything to be new."

PRAYER: Thank God for your salvation and the rights of sons given to you.

THOSE WHO FIGHT TO BE WASHED IN ABANA AND PHARPAR - Beyond The Common Series 008

II Kings 5:12, KJV

"Are not Abana and Pharpar, rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? may I not wash in them, and be clean? So he turned and went away in a rage."

You need to be humble to receive the will of God. The will of God is not always the will of man. As a matter of fact, there's an intersection or collision of wills - where will struggles and fights will. 

However, if you'll prosper, you'll let go of your will like Jesus role modelled to us to embrace His Father's will (Matthew 26:39). 

Here's Naaman. He's a great man but a poor man also. He has a great resume but it's dotted by a problem. By Him, God has given victory to Syria but he's a leper. What a problem! Though it may not look conscupious once his dress or military regalia covers his leprosy but he's still a leper. 

As if God was setting him up for healing, they brought with them a young Israelite when they went on a raid. She attends to Naaman's wife. Out of her generosity and responsibility to share 'the gospel', she declares, "only if my master would be with the prophet in Israel, he would recover him of his leprosy." This was heard and recounted. Long story cut short, here's Naaman, the captain of the Syrian army at the gate of Elisha, the prophet. Elisha didn't send him any heavy to do instructions. He only said, "go and wash in Jordan seven times and you shall be clean."

Simple instruction! I thought Naaman would rush at it. However, his pride wouldn't allow. He's not different from many big and influential people who will get angry at you and think it diminutive when you tell them salvation is free - only believe and be saved. That's the problem of Naaman. He said it out. 

II Kings 5:11, KJV

"But Naaman was wroth, and went away, and said, Behold, I thought, He will surely come out to me, and stand, and call on the name of the LORD his God, and strike his hand over the place, and recover the leper."

You see, he wanted the man of God to come and weave his power - to come and look powerful before him. Why is it that the human senses always looks for things to satisfy themselves with? Why is it that when you're simple, people reject you and would want and desire sermons that'll complicate their lives. If Elisha had told Naaman to give him 500 bulls, he would have done so without having gotten angry. How much more, "bathe and be clean?" How much more, "believe and be saved?"

And why should anyone have any problem with the choice of God on how to meet their needs or solve their problems? God chose River Jordan as the cleansing or purifying water for Naaman, why did Naaman fill himself with the thoughts of Abana and pharpar and would have had that recommended for him? Is he God? 

When did those who should receive instructions and abide by it begin to dictate to God what He should have done? Is this how to be perfected or made whole? Some of you are telling God, you should have chosen for me that other fellow? "Are not Abana and Pharpar, rivers of Damascus better than all the waters in Israel?" Some are saying, "God, you should have chosen for me from my tribe? Are my tribe's men not better than others?"

Even if they are, the problem is they aren't the choice of God. In like manner, Muhammad, Buddha, Confucius and a host of them that people follow or have come to put their faith in are not the choice of God. The choice of God - the River Jordan of God is Jesus Christ, our Lord and Saviour. To cement this, John detected Him so while He was baptizing in River Jordan. When John baptized Jesus in the Jordan River (the same in which the salvation of Naaman is), the spirit descended, rested and stayed on Him. This immediately confirms for John what God has said to him about who the Messiah is (John 1:32-33).

So, when Elisha told Naaman to go and bathe in River Jordan, he was sending Him to Jesus - the author and finisher of our faith. He was sending Him to the One that has been identified through baptism as the Saviour and salvation of the whole world. 

Eventually, after his ego was appealed, he went and was cleansed. Stop saying, "are not Abana and Pharpar better rivers than all the waters of Israel? Muhammad or Buddha may look pretty to you because of the rituals attached to them but Jesus is the real deal. In Him, you'll bathe and be cleansed of all sins. When you take a dip, your sins will no longer remain or be remembered. Rather, you'll be as new as a clean slate (II Corinthians 5:17). 

PRAYER: Lord, choose me amidst many. Thank You for the plan for salvation that came through Jesus alone. Pray for family members to come and be washed in Jesus - the River Jordan and be clean.

WHAT GOD HAS CLEANSED! - Beyond The Common Series 007

Acts 10:15, KJV

"And the voice spake unto him again the second time, What God hath cleansed, that call not thou common."

One time, I was under the ministration of Venerable Johnson Oyebode of Ijebu Anglican Diocese, Church of Nigeria, Anglican Communion. This man has an unusual ministry and anointing though in an orthodox church. His insights into the Bible and the prophetic operation of God on him are convicting. Often, God testifies to all these even with signs and wonders. 

On that occasion, he was teaching on a topic I couldn't recall for now but I do remember one of the real live stories he shared. He talked of a particular sister who was a friend to his wife. At the time when this event happened, he was not married to his wife. They were still courting. His wife was still in a higher institution then. 

His wife's friend (then) had received a proposal from one unnamed brother. That was while the sister was in a college of education. However, she wouldn't budge. She wouldn't agree to it. Often, the brother would return to the sister asking if she had considered his proposal. All met with a no. 

The brother was convinced and met God on many occasions to confirm this to the sister. After many attempts with no positive response, the brother on one occasion he was praying bluntly told God, "I cannot go on like this. This is the last time I'm praying to You to turn the heart of this sister. This is the last time God!"

Don't take your words for granted. When you pray, God actually hears. It was as if that brother had spoken into a different microphone other than the one he had been speaking into. Though God had severally convicted this sister of that brother, she just wouldn't budge. She wanted someone who in her definition and standards would be better. For short, she was rating the brother after the flesh. She refused to see him in the light of what God has shown her (which she now lives in its denial). 

After that blunt prayer, the brother went away and refused to attune his heart to matters concerning that sister again. He stopped sending letters to ask, "if she had changed her mind or visiting to ascertain the same." He just cut off like a broken line. Then, the sister had a vision or a dream (either of the two). She saw a telephone that was ringing and ringing continuously. The telephone rang to the point of disturbance or weariness but the sister (though hearing the rings) didn't pick it. She was conscious of the ringing but she just didn't pick it up. Then suddenly, the ringing stopped and no call came in again. 

How seared and foolish the heart of this sister has become? It's not different from Balaam's whose heart has been so drawn to greed and seared in conscience so much more that it took the voice of a miraculous donkey to stop him in his tracks. 

II Peter 2:16, KJV

"But was rebuked for his iniquity: the dumb ass speaking with man's voice forbad the madness of the prophet."

Even at that, he still shows disposition to go and wouldn't recognize God's permissive will but go. Don't be dead at heart like this. If you struggle with God over a matter like this and you don't let Him win, you can have this same experience. 

You'll have thought this sister would be able to relate the vision to that brother. She just couldn't. She thought it was God saying something else to her. She shared this with Mummy Oyebode who at that time was simply called Sis. Bose. She was the one who assured her she would share it with Bro. Johnson (now Venerable Johnson Oyebode). 

Don't forget, I had said earlier, Venerable Oyebode was still courting Mummy Oyebode at that time. So, when Bro. Johnson came around, Sis Bose told the story. I can't recall whether the said sister was there. But Bro. Johnson's response was, "who has been patronizing you with something that you wouldn't give an answer to? You'd better go and give an answer. You'd better pick the call lest the incoming call stops coming in. You'd be grinded!"

It was at this point this sister whose heart has been fatigued could then relate. Eventually, she gave the brother the long awaited opportunity only to discover that the brother had decided he would not look towards her again. This way, her vision corresponds with the decision of the brother. 

That vision God gave her was her last lifeline. Thrice God speaks to Peter saying, "rise, kill and eat." But after that, the sheet was taken back. Some opportunities can only stay for a while. They'll eventually go. Some of you are in the shoes of this sister. You're already running on extra time. You're at the edge of the cliff. If I may, I would say, you're already running late and I pray, may it not be too late for you. 

In Christ, we don't see or regard men after the flesh. Any divide, bias or prejudice fall. We see them according to the recommendation of God to us. He knows what we don't know about them and knows what they'll become after a while. Don't forget, He is a God who can declare the end from the beginning. Please, stop calling common and unclean what God has cleansed and have sure proofs for. 

PRAYER: Lord, teach and reveal to me who men really are. I see and believe Your report and testimony about men. Grant me the humility of Your heart to receive what you have prepared for me.

DO NOT CALL COMMON! - Beyond The Common Series 006

Acts 10:14, KJV

"But Peter said, Not so, Lord; for I have never eaten any thing that is common or unclean."

Surprisingly, some will still not let the sleeping dog lie. They rather are debating God. They are still full of jangling and will do anything to resist - even unto the shedding of blood. 

Continuing from Peter's trance that was deeply examined yesterday; God still has some people in mind. They must not escape the sword of God's Word. It must divide right into their hearts and thoughts - discerning all that is hidden. 

As the Holy Spirit is persuading me, I'm still hearing, "there are those who still say, I have never eaten anything unclean or common."

God is saying, "stop that!" Let that go. A change has come now. A new era! What I'm bringing to you is my will. I'm the initiator and I want you to receive it. I want you to accept it, love it and live with it. Many of you, God has brought you someone to marry or speak to about love but your response has been, "Lord, that one is not my size! We can't fit!" What you must know is that if it was the Lord who truly recommended the fellow, he or she would fit. You may not like it now but if you'll agree with it and go on this journey with the choice fellow, you'll see all the reasons and the joys that'll lace your journey. 

While you're busy arguing, opening book after book, raising one argument after the other, God keeps saying also, "what I have made clean, call not common."

Let this rebuke, correction and God's insistence suffice. Don't push things further or else, you might miss God somewhere, join the wrong bus and be driven to a wrong destination that God never had in mind for you in particular. For anyone still arguing and saying, "I can't have to do with that person/people or place", your big time reply is, "what God has cleansed or where God has prepared, don't regard in the flesh." You can marry a Middle-Easterner (An Arab, Palestine or even a Jewish). You can marry any of the five races or the tribes that are on earth. You can live in a place that till now looks like a forbidden kingdom. As long as it's the Lord saying, go there or turn thee eastward, how can it be strange. 

Stop seeing it as ordinary. Stop seeing that sister as all that appears. Stop believing that's how that brother will be economically and in other ramifications. Doing that is regarding men after the flesh. It's not knowing them in the correct picture that God would like you to see them - which He has given you of course. God might have told you to settle somewhere that doesn't fit your plan or fancy, I'll advise you to do just that whether a city or a town. Only Him knows the reasons and in the years to come, you'll uncover the same as you walk with Him.

Has God even called you to submit to someone as your discipler or mentor? Don't rate him as not being big enough. If it was God's mouth that said it, do so. If the sheet that came down came from heaven and not any other place, it's a reason for your Peter not to doubt. This is the Lord's doing if you're a Muslim or one of other belief/religion but God is saying, "come out of that now and put your faith in Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son who died and rose for your sake." You'd better do so. Let go of the traditions and belief system that has ruled you till now. Let go of the fear of death and contrariness from persecutors from your [former] religion. There's no temptation that has taken you that's not common to men. Peter faced the same things for checking in with the Gentiles but everything was well later on (Acts 11:1-18). He who gave the vision will defend Himself before men when you're challenged. Summarily, what God has cleansed, don't call common. Stop regarding or knowing people in the flesh when God sees them differently, even as befitting people for you.

PRAYER: Lord, I submit to Your will. What you have cleansed (by way of preparation), I will not call common or regard as impossible.

COME OUT OF THAT VIEW! - Beyond The Common Series 005

Acts 10:15, KJV

"15 And the voice spake unto him again the second time, What God hath cleansed, that call not thou common."

God is calling some out of their prejudiced and biased view. It would have been okay and not sinful before God to hold that kind of view for some time - especially when it's your time of ignorance and you don't know any better. Now however that God is commanding a new thing and is asking you to come out of that view, you'd better heed Him. 

One day, just one afternoon like that while they were making lunch for Peter, God came to him in a trance. How subtle and simple our God can announce Himself at times? In a trance, Peter sees all sorts of animals dropped by a sheet held on its four sides from heaven. What a sight! It would have been okay if the trance ended there but the 'temptation' of Peter continued. He heard a voice calling unto Him, "Rise Peter, kill and eat."

The voice called repeatedly but to no avail. All Peter could reply with was, "14 ...not so, Lord; for I have never eaten anything that is common or unclean." Yet, the Lord would not stop pressing it to him that there's therefore no more difference, separation or segregation - "15 And the voice spake unto him again the second time, What God hath cleansed, that call not thou common."

You would think Peter would eventually heed God's voice having known and proven that it was God calling out to him but all was just to no avail. He's just too entrenched to act! Peter has conclusively refused to allow his old dietary laws to be broken. 

Some of us are as stubborn as Peter. You're as glued to your tradition, beliefs, prejudices, biases, sentiments as him. Even when God is offering assurance that "it is a cleansed meat", headily you'll still refuse to taste. Or what should we make of Peter? He's like one being piped to who still refuses to dance. What baffles me is that God told him to keep shut and to stop insisting that the meat He has cleansed was still unclean or common. God in His right senses came to Peter to call him out to plough the Gentile world. For that, He had to give him a corresponding conviction and a basis for doing something as absurd as evangelizing them (since the Jews were separated and don't fellowship with the Gentiles). To have proper conceptualization of this trance therefore, we'll need to examine a few symbols as this trance marks a turning point in the Gospel’s reach.

The sheet coming down from heaven symbolizes divine initiative. God is revealing something new, not man’s idea.

The sheet’s four corners may symbolize the four directions of the earth - universality of the Gospel. It means what was once restricted to Israel is now meant for all nations.

The variety of animals included clean and unclean animals (per Jewish law in Leviticus 11). For Peter, this is shocking. It breaks centuries of dietary distinctions that separated Jews from Gentiles. Symbolically, the animals represent all peoples: Jews (clean) and Gentiles (unclean), now united in Christ.

The command to “Kill and eat” equals fellowship, acceptance and communion. God is asking Peter to break through his old boundaries of ritual separation. The command pushes Peter beyond tradition into a new covenantal reality.

Peter’s resistance , “By no means, Lord…” reveals the tension: even apostles struggled with letting go of old categories or ways of doing things. His objection echoes Israel’s long history of faithfulness to the Law, yet God is moving them forward.

God’s response: “What God has made clean…” is the heart of the vision. Through Christ’s death and resurrection, purity and holiness are redefined. The cross breaks the old boundary lines of Jew versus Gentile, clean versus unclean. God Himself is the one who redefines what is “clean” - not human tradition.

The repetition (three times) equals emphasis and certainty. Consider the dreams doubled to Pharaoh which Joseph interpreted also (Gen.41:32). It mirrors Peter’s earlier threefold denial and threefold restoration (John 18 and 21). It underscores that this is God’s fixed will; Peter must accept it.

All in all, the symbolic and theological meanings would mean the inclusion of the Gentiles. The vision only came to prepare Peter to accept Cornelius (a Gentile) and his household into the faith (Acts 10:34–48). Let's answer for ourselves, Do we still categorize people into “clean” and “unclean,” “worthy” and “unworthy”? God’s voice rather speaks, “What God has made clean, do not call common.” The trance calls us to radical hospitality, unity and openness to God’s surprising work in people we might not expect. God has therefore redefined holiness, broken human barriers and opened the gospel to all nations. You cannot reverse that? Can a clay speak to the Potter saying, "what makes you" (Rom. 9:20)?

PRAYER: Lord, thank You for Your salvation plan that extends to the Gentile world. It is this that saved and brought me in. Teach me to steward what I've received and to truly see men in the newness of the new birth.

THE TURNING POINT: HITHERTO HAVE I COME - Beyond The Common Series 004

II Corinthians 5:16, ESV

"From now on, therefore, we regard no one according to the flesh. Even though we once regarded Christ according to the flesh, we regard him thus no longer."

Paul says in I Corinthians 13:11, "When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things."

May you grow in the revelational knowledge of Christ. When you do, you'll yield up some earthly and natural beliefs you've held of Christ. Where you've only esteemed Him as "a carpenter's son", you'll let go and esteem Him as Christ Jesus (Saviour). Even for a time, the apostles saw him in that light. Meanwhile, they reached a definitive moment - a turning point where their voice could culminate in Paul's and be voiced out saying, "from now on, therefore, we regard no one according to the flesh..." even though they had once regarded Christ so. They rather swallowed and yielded it up. They let their old views give way to the new. Seeing people by worldly standards (wealth, appearance, race, gender - either male or female, intellect, heritage) isn't their true definition. That's your human judgement. By measuring through those, you will miss who they have become in Christ or in destiny. 

For the born again man, old things have passed away. Rather, the new has come. As long as He is in Christ, any man or woman ought not to be regarded after the flesh any longer. Is there a brother or sister there that you once regarded and treated as a fornicator, thief, liar or whatsoever? The Bible is speaking to you concerning them. Their new reality is that they are none of those again because they are now born again. You shouldn't therefore reckon or regard them as such. Don't hold them down to their past lives or mistakes. The Bible is saying, "old things have passed away, behold, the new has come."

Look at their new spiritual side. Look at their new identity in Christ. Look at their new heritages and new creation realities. Those are their traits, their measures, inheritances and heritages. 

Paul marked a turning point. After understanding the new creation in Christ (v.17), everything is now conceptualized and seen differently. The old indeed has passed away! Do you know the verse I just heard?

Romans 4:8, KJV

"Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin."

When any one tastes the experience this Psalm is describing, He's free of guilt, condemnation and any transgression that might have been afore credited into his account. He's rather clean and whole like a new born baby. If you trace his body, you'll therefore metaphorically not find any spot or mark once tainted by leprosy. Such had taken a bath in (River Jordan - a symbol of the rejected Christ that becomes the cornerstone for our salvation) and are now whole and healthy (II Kings 5:10-12). 

No trace of sin or hold of sin on them any longer. They are free because God made them so. He released them. He forgave them. He bathed them with His own blood!

Now, nothing else reshapes how we see ourselves or other believers in Christ but faith. This includes how you see Christ Himself. If you don't have faith that your salvation is just as it has been described and testified of in the Bible, you cannot see it that way. Therefore, you'll experience what is called a reality distortion field. Instead of seeing people for who they are, you'll rather see them wrongly. Instead of hailing Christ in the lives of the brethren, you can still hold the prejudices of their former selves, backgrounds, mischiefs and humanness against them. This is short of the turning point you're called to in Christ. You must stop seeing men as trees! See them who God calls them in the completion of Chris's finished work. 

PRAYER: Lord, whom you have forgiven is forgiven. May I see the new man you have created in any Christian around me. May I not tie them to their old lives.

FITTING TIME: MEETING NEED

FITTING TIME: MEETING NEED

Brethren, I want to direct your gazes to God. I want you to lift your eyes to the Rock that is higher than you. Look up!

Do things just happen or there's a wheel behind the turns? I have traveled far and near, heard stories from ancient civilizations and modern ones alike. It can be told boldly that behind what appears is the invisible hands of God directing things even if it's to our oblivion. It's like the turning of the gyre!

Consider this verse below, what do you see? 

Acts 7:20, KJV

"In which time Moses was born, and was exceeding fair, and nourished up in his father's house three months:"

Does anything strikes you?

In order to establish a good premise, order and footing, we ought to ask, "at what time was Moses born?" For that, let's read the verses that ran before this quoted verse. 

Acts 7:17-19, KJV

"17 But when the time of the promise drew nigh, which God had sworn to Abraham, the people grew and multiplied in Egypt, 

18 Till another king arose, which knew not Joseph. 

19 The same dealt subtilly with our kindred, and evil entreated our fathers, so that they cast out their young children, to the end they might not live." 

Now, follow that first posted verse - "in which time Moses was born..."

Let me ask you now, "...in what time or at what time was Moses born?"

Go back to the passage for the answer!

The answer would be, "He was born at a time when Hebrew children were being cast out to die."

Now, to the big question. Why would God allow any child - especially His intended saviour in Moses to be born at such a dangerous time as this? Like we do popularly say, "why should God have said amen to the coming together of Amram and Jochebed?" Why these questions? Basically because we just read from the Bible that Moses found no other time to be born into but when that 'disaster' like no other was at its peak. He came when as soon as he was born, his life was being demanded of him. Why would a child come around or into such a mess? Why would the Creator let loose a human spirit - especially the one that's critical to His purpose, allowing it to solidify and take flesh in Jochebed's womb and be born into the evil untold that has been claiming many babies' lives? Why? Why? Somebody answer my "why!"

Do you want me to tell you the wisdom of God? The wisdom of God is what ordains our time of birth on earth. It is not only our parts that are numbered and constantly before God (Psalm 139:16). Our days also have been totalled - summed up and known even before the commencement of our journey on earth. The Bible speaking of David says in Acts 13:36, "For David, after he had served his own generation by the will of God, fell on sleep, and was laid unto his fathers, and saw corruption:"

Why was David not born at the time of Abraham or Jesus? The Bible says, "He served his own generation by the will of God..."

Why did he come in his own time - with his own batch - in his own generation? Why? Why not another? It couldn't have been another. 

That's because, "different men are for different days" and all human spirits before God have their scheduled time - of entrance, manifestation or disappearance!

Some spirits don't stay to follow this order. They might be forced out of their bodies and mandated to return. 

All human spirits that are before God that have not been released into what I can best call the 'foetus' [for easy understanding], or birthed are before God awaiting their time. When a couple meets together like we have written in Exodus 2:1, "And there went a man of the house of Levi and took to wife a daughter of Levi", that's when God sends a human spirit that has a destiny to fulfill on the earth into a time that God had foreknown. It is this that'll lead to conception, bringing us to the second verse of that same Exodus. 

"2 And the woman conceived, and bare a son: and when she saw him that he was a goodly child, she hid him three months."

For conception to take place, God had to honour it with a spirit. Where do we see that in the Bible?

Jeremiah 1:5, KJV

"Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations."

Now, there are three periods to note in that single verse. 

a. Before I formed you in the womb (pre-conception)

b. Before you came out of the womb (pre-birth)

c. I sanctified you and ordained you a prophet to the nations (pre-conception and birth)

Which of these do you think is the oldest of the periods? Which was the first God did? It's the C! God had sanctified (set apart) and ordained for Jeremiah and each of us what we should be even before we took shape in our mothers' wombs or were birthed.  

That time of, "I sanctified or I ordained you to be XYZ" therefore preceded others and was the time that hint at our spirit being before God - even when it has not been released or sent to unite [with the fertilized egg] or what the thing is that denotes conception. 

Your body is therefore not what keeps or custodies the script of your destiny! Your body only carries that encoding or programming out after having its revelation as God had intended. 

Spirits that have not been born (taking this our body) or formed in the womb already have their destinies and what God plans they should become or do on earth [only that they are not on earth as babies now or in the womb as expected babies].

It therefore means every individual born by a woman is meant to only align with a life that God has ordained. That's what we call, "destiny." Only that, "destiny" or "calling" is not the same as "career." All humans are meant to fit together as pieces of puzzles in the larger will of God. They're meant to complement something of God [that He wants done the way He wants it done on earth]. However, amidst that larger community of men are those who will only roam the earth, be distracted by whatever reason to another life or path. In this number are the multitudes that are not even born again and those who'll never be but rather pass away without discovering or living the life God had written for them. 

Having gone this far to establish that, it's therefore not strange to see why Moses was born at the heat of the killing of Hebrew children in Egypt. He came when he was needed! God had a purpose for releasing the human spirit eventually named Moses to Amram and Jochebed. That is basically because He has looked forward and put preparation in place towards fulfilling the promise He made to Abraham that his descendants would one day be exodused out of their house of slavery (Gen.15:13-14). Now, who's the instrument of God to accomplish that if not Moses?

Giving birth to Moses when Children were being cast out is part of God's hidden wisdom to begin to fulfill that - even if it seems in our eyes to ask what a baby could do. 

But you'll agree with me that though a baby in Moses was born, it was an adult God sent and waited for to heed his call. Until you come to the realization of your call, God can therefore do nothing. So, God had factored those times of growth, wilderness experience and whatever into it all for Moses to be ready. I don't know a great planner like God. He plans till the end - till the day dawns!

That's why that verse could read, "in which time Moses was born..."

God's wisdom intentionally allowed his own conception at that time so that Moses can fit the time and time description God afore gave to Abraham as an expiration of Israel's slavery. That a man from the house of Levi went out, spoke with another woman of the house of Levi and married her at that time was not behind God at all. He had been influencing their decisions all along. 

There's always a time designated by God for certain earthly events in our lives. You're to 'collide' with it! We only need to know it and align. Provision was waiting for Elijah by Brook Cherith. All he had to do was to take dressing and turn himself eastward (I Kings 17:3)!

That's why God was especially committed to saving Moses. It made no sense that Moses escaped death. We're all familiar with how it happened and how God had to nurse him on the authority and privileges of he who sought his life. This is nothing but the orchestration of God. No human could have made things this beautiful or work out a Mathematics as fine as this. 

So, I can boldly say, your own child is not a misfit. God has a purpose for his or her coming. All things are even made ready for him. That he came into a Christian hands means he has an assignment and like an actor on the scene, God would like him to play his role. It's now left to you as a parent to sense this, communicate this and have him receive it as a revelation or uncover it personally as a discovery. There's a music to dance to its tune. God will spread the stage for you, raise help for you and make things beautiful for you in its time. The defiance is only if you forfeited it all and never trusted Him or see those opportunities as sensible to take in order to become God's intention.

Mark that clause once more - "in which time Moses was born..." He met with his right time - the designated time of God. He didn't fail to meet up with his time. Rather, he came in the heat of it when all has been set for his salvation and when God has ordained that all his bills be paid. He came when the plan for a saviour is critical and God is beginning to take an active stance on it. Though many people don't smell him as one, his mother (family) does. They could see that this is "a goodly (special child)." Moses' destiny could be perceived by their spiritual senses. They saw beyond the ordinary. That's why they risked it for three months and yielded him only to God when they couldn't any longer. Moses' parents literally walked or aligned with God for the salvation of Moses' life. So, Moses had to be saved. 

Moses is a type of Jesus. As a matter of fact, Moses had a destiny similar to Jesus. He faced the same evil as Jesus. Interest you to know that Jesus also had to escape to Egypt (Matt.2:13-14) when male children's heads were called for. Moses also (though in Egypt already) had to live and be protected by the reserved right of Egypt - the Pharaoh himself. 

That's why we could have this ancient prophecy fulfilled when Mathew says, "and out of Egypt have I called my son."

Matthew 2:15, KJV

"And was there until the death of Herod: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying, Out of Egypt have I called my son."

Which prophet said what we just read in Matthew?

Hosea 11:1, KJV

"When Israel was a child, then I loved him, and called my son out of Egypt."

Moses led Israel (God's son) out of a physical house of bondage - Egypt and from the terror of a hard master - Pharaoh. Jesus by destiny (Matt. 1:21) also led people out of the bondage of sin and death, translating them into the kingdom of light (of God's dear son) - Col. 1:13 

Moses is a shadow of Jesus. He only spoke of a salvation to come which already came and found fulfillment in Jesus. As the nation Israel is God's son and was led out of Egypt (the house of bondage), so are you God's son and daughter that God had to give His first born for (in Jesus) to bring out of sin and the kingdom of darkness. You see, OT is a type and shadow!

Something had to be given! The night Israel left Egypt, all first born (humans and animals) died in the tenth plague (Exodus 11-12). Coupled with the deliverance of Israel through the blood of the passover lamb, we see nothing but a foreshadowing of Christ's death for our salvation.

The question now is whether you've received Jesus into your heart or not. If you do, you'll be brought out from the kingdom of darkness and be giving God's own life - eternal life (John 3:16). 

To round off, Christian parents, that child on your knees has been prepared for if you'll know that. God doesn't send anybody here (to the earth) without shifting a space for them amidst the great and the strong and finding ways for them. Only that humans may not align or see God's resources to take. That's why only Jesus was recorded to have escaped the sword of Herod in His day also. He only has listening and connected to God parents. Step by step, the parents were receiving instructions for his living. So, he was preserved. The same can be said of Moses. Where the Bible says in Matthew 2:18, "In Rama was there a voice heard, lamentation, and weeping, and great mourning, Rachel weeping for her children, and would not be comforted, because they are not", Jesus' parents were comforted and delighted that God saved them.

 "Rachel [is interpreted to mean the multitude of parents who lost children] who wept and refused to be comforted..." For short, let's say Israel!

That metaphor never extended to Jesus' parents as earlier spoken by Jeremiah, recalled and used to metaphorize the grief of Israel. 

Jeremiah 31:15, KJV

"Thus saith the LORD; A voice was heard in Ramah, lamentation, and bitter weeping; Rahel weeping for her children refused to be comforted for her children, because they were not."

Babies, your lot are different. The lines have fallen for you in pleasant places. You're welcome. You have arrived rightly. You couldn't have made this trip earlier or later in time. You came just in time - when you're needed and when God would want your race to begin and your time to start counting. 

But amidst all, God also knows that this is your best time to play your role. You're not deficient. You're not a bench warmer. You're an active participant in life with something to give and do. You have a destiny - a need to meet in your day and a cure to give. You are a balm and a balsam to the nations. 

I'm recalling that clause again, "in which time Moses was born..."

What a time! What a coincidence that meets with God's providence! What an hour! What a moment that collides with purpose, destiny and what the sovereign counsel of God has set to do!

Hallelujah! Rise and fill your vacant spaces! You're just the ones we're waiting for. 

Amen!
