MORNING WINGS DAILY DEVOTIONAL GUIDE - Olusola ADEJUMO

SITED BY HELP AND HELPED OVER DELAY

Read Genesis 37:13-22

Genesis 37:15, KJV

"And a certain man found him, and, behold, he was wandering in the field: and the man asked him, saying, What seekest thou?

Brethren, are you there this morning? What you must know and believe firmly is that once one phase is ending in your life, God will supremely kick-start another for you. One phase of life always leads to the other. You won't get stuck. You must progress. Today, my Father, the Lord God is dispelling darkness on your path. You'll be set on motion until you can have the testimony of safe arrival. 

Joseph must reach. He must go on the journey of destiny. If the sheaf he saw standing up and bowed to will ever become a reality, then Joseph must be guided to Egypt. He himself didn't appreciate being sold. If his opinion was sought, he wouldn't want to go. But for his overall best, he must go. He may not know the details but no one is ever guided who doesn't testify later to God's goodness when they see where and to what profit they've been guided to. No wonder, Joseph confesses that his brothers intended it for evil but God intends it for good. He was even comforting them not to be grieved (Gen.50:20).

On an occasion, Jacob sent Joseph to go and check on the welfare of his brothers. He got to Sheckem but he couldn't locate them. Joseph begins to wander around and he could have continued long in that but for the timely intervention of a man who asked him what he wanted. Confessing to the stranger, he receives the necessary arm up he needs. He takes a journey therefore to Dothan where the man hinted they've gone. Sure enough, Joseph found them in Dothan. 

The burden God is expressing is simple. God doesn't want you lost in life and in your find. I found out that the confusion that'll happen in a day if all sign posts, house numbers, street names etc were wiped off would be much without exaggeration. God wants you locate early. If you set out on any occasion, God wants you to arrive and arrive faster. It is a curse merry-go-rounding in the field without meeting the objective of launching out initially. But you can have the confession of Jacob to his father. When Isaac asked him how fast he could get the game he demanded for, he said one thing that is always the manifestation of any God is with and is being helped by Him. 

Genesis 27:20, KJV

"And Isaac said unto his son, How is it that thou hast found it so quickly, my son? And he said, Because the LORD thy God brought it to me".

Mark that, "because the Lord thy God brought it to me". Anyway, we all know he lied. It was a home fetched kid he prepared but that confession may be your own reality. It is what God will use to save time for you. While the Esaus are still in the field sweating it out, seeking game and seeking to comprehend their profession, God will bring you into a ready made rest. You will just fetch yours easily. When others are taking long to find resources, yours will be faster and so your time, years and life will be saved. God can actually bring it to you. God availed Joseph this man who saved his time. So, God can bring men and all resources you need to you. You may labour but it won't be absorbingly painstaking labour. Part of the work would have been done for you. The process would have been hastened for you. This happens when you receive gifts, blessings, mercy and become a host of unmerited favour. You simply become the 'lucky one' as popularly identified by everybody. 

To redeem time for you so that you won't continue to engage in vain labour, God will site men at certain junctures of your life so that you might be saved from wasted effort. That man found Joseph wandering. I won't call him an angel but that man is God's special help to Joseph in locating his brothers and then on time. Assuredly, Joseph couldn't have known where the brothers have left to and if he had guessed since he's also a shepherd like they are, it would take long before he ever arrives at their specific location. He would have engaged in wasted journeys and effort in going to places he would believe they might be but only to be frustrated without meeting them. However, Joseph met a help at hand. As he got to Sheckem and was wandering and wondering where they could be, a prepared help shows up in the field for him. The question was, "what do you seek?" May you meet men who will ask you same. Only those vessels will be jealous for your sake and good. 

Genesis 37:15, KJV

"15 And a certain man found him, and, behold, he was wandering in the field: and the man asked him, saying, What seekest thou? 16 And he said, I seek my brethren: tell me, I pray thee, where they feed their flocks. 17 And the man said, They are departed hence; for I heard them say, Let us go to Dothan. And Joseph went after his brethren, and found them in Dothan".

I pray for you, you'll meet with the next you're looking for. You'll not be stranded. God will fix men for you at a juncture and outlet leading to another. Your wandering ends today. You will take the next transport and go on in life. Where you've been halted at a level, I have your released in Jesus' name. This man's information is what furthers Joseph into ever travelling to Egypt, his land of destiny. His successful arrival in Dothan is what kick-starts in his brothers the plan to kill or later to sell him. For sure, a phase and full cycle has been completed over Joseph. He must now travel towards his birthing of destiny. God is the one who sovereignly watches over the phases that unfold in our lives. When the appointed time comes, He'll supremely work but as you cooperate with Him to bring you into your next phase and experience. God will facilitate you. At junctures that matter, He will site men who will be useful to sponsoring you further into your next stage. This act of God is done so that you're not stranded but easily helped over delay. It may be someone to sponsor your education or adopt you for that time. God will just find a way for you . Your journey won't be cancelled. Your own flight to destination will also take off. Anything that'll maraud it will be terminated. God will set you on the road you should work. You'll hear a voice behind you saying, "herein is the way, walk ye in it". You're saved from confusion as to which choice of path to take. When you are, God shall enlighten your darkness and by His sovereign will order you to destination in His guidance. I pray over you, you will find a man in the field. A vessel that'll save you from wandering in this life and in this time. So, you'll enjoy accelerated journey and arrival. 

PRAYER: I have accelerated journey and I enjoy early arrival. My hands fetch it easily. It always comes to me.

MORNING WINGS DAILY DEVOTIONAL GUIDE - 21/07/2023

FRIDAY- 21ST JULY, 2023

MORNING WINGS DAILY DEVOTIONAL GUIDE - Olusola ADEJUMO

LORD, WHAT YOU WANT TO DO!

Psalms 90:14, KJV

"O satisfy us early with thy mercy; that we may rejoice and be glad all our days".

It really gripped Moses, the man of God. Look at the way he expressed himself to God with a great exclaim and heartful feeling. If there's one thing he seeks for Israel at this time, it's that He'll satisfy them early with His mercy. There's one thing being filled with God's mercy does to your soul and your body. It makes you robust and not lean. You'll be fat fleshed and buoyant on the inside. For this, he cries and suggestively prays saying, "O satisfy us early with thy mercy". 

The expression "O" also means an expression of appeal. He's actually begging God. He's pleading with Him that He should do one thing for them - to bless them early. You see, it should be our prayer that what God wants to do, He would do early. If it's financial independence, stability of health, promotion, child birth, being in purpose etc we desire, it's our prayer that we are satisfied early with it. You must know that it is not without a purpose that Moses cried. Moses just didn't open his mouth to pray that way. He did in anticipation of a consequence - "that they may rejoice and be glad all the days of their lives". Let me use an instance. Imagine someone who's looking up unto God for the fruit of the womb and has not received such for years. Do you think the fellow will have any satisfaction wherever? They may have wealth but there's none they want to comfort it with. So, they're desperately asking for satisfaction in that they'll have their own. And let me make a point, when you're not satisfied or you have an area of your life not yet fulfilled, it will tell on you and tell on other areas as well. Have you not seen people who just begin to grow lean and sickly because there's a particular thing in their lives not met. Yes, there's a missing link. Do you also think it is of no consequence when the Bible says, "hope deferred maketh the heart sick... (Proverbs  13:12, KJV). When the heart is sick, when the soul is bowed down by unhappiness, it can't but reflect on one's body and general welfare. One would just lack strength, motivation and joy to drive life. That's why a need fulfilled is as a tree of life.

"but when the desire cometh, it is a tree of life.. (Prov.13:12). 

It will invigorate you. You'll be filled with vigour and you'll tend to ressurect to responsibility and new life with renewed energy. Tree of life offers life. It offers mobility. Another reference to "tree of life" as literally written and not interpreted takes us back to the Garden of Eden also (Gen.2:9). Obviously he who eats it won't die any longer. However, we know that the "tree of life" as being referred to here in Proverbs is reputed for stopping decay and deterioration. Instead of being depressed, your mountain will be strong because your needs and desires are met. You won't go down. So, if a desire or need met is as a tree of life, it means it's like eating fruits or being filled with food when you've been hungry before. It'll bring about the receiving of invigoration and new energy to run and keep up with life. 

Moses prayed, "O satisfy us early with thy mercy" and then, "that we may rejoice and be glad all the days of our life". Let us stay put here. It means without being satisfied early with mercy, rejoicing all the days of one's life is automatically hindered. It means even if there are joys in other areas and there's one impediment in another which refuses to be cleared but tarry, it means one will not have joy as long as that unfulfilled desire tarries. However, if all of one's needs is met - the greatest of them which is to have soul satiation that you're living out destiny or your purpose on earth, it means you'll be happy all the days of your life. Occasionally not having food at home won't be problem because you have what is greater than that and could secure food. A man in purpose is the most secured man on earth. They don't live insecure and distracted by envy since they're doing theirs and they know it's accepted likewise before God. 

God's intention as I'm hearing this morning is that we may rejoice and be glad all the days of our lives. Due to His intention to deliver us this, He will ensure we are satisfied early with mercy. It costs God nothing to continually give you unmerited favour in the midst of  your human best possible until you get to the top of your mountain or vocation - where at a tender age, you're a governor on earth but more importantly also, in the Spirit. Why in the spirit also? It's because your throne in the spirit is what'll protect the your office and status on earth. 

God wants you to rejoice. Look at people who have everything early, their lives get better for it. No link is missing and no room is vacant in their lives. It doesn't mean they don't still encounter hardships. That's common to all man but look, they don't have a deferred desire and so are robust. They are filled to the brim with joy of being satisfied. He has daily bread. He doesn't hunger and he doesn't beg. He has shelter and he has a family that brings joy. He's living in purpose and he's touching lives. What else should we thank God for? On occasions, when such remember how much God has satiated them, all they do is to lift up their hands and sing praises and rejoice. When you're satisfied early, you consequently rejoice. That's the one permissible thing to happen to those who have been blessed, comforted, assisted, financed, sponsored this early. Once they become that early, the joy of early fulfillment will continue to grow as they walk that road. They'll continue to be bigger and bigger unto the perfect day and as far as we know, with each level of landmark, growth and ascension comes its own joy. I pray for you that you'll no longer mourn again. I am God's anointed and as He that is called to say restore, I declare that wherever you've been robbed of joy or what could have given joy to you, let there be a restoration now! It is the joy of the Lord that can become your strength - making you inflated, robust and active. Receive it. Currently, I'm seeing dew falling from above. I'm seeing it settle on you. Receive heaven's blessings. Receive a top up even on the blessings you already have but which is not complete. Any vacant space and room in your life where you've been crying to God for satisfaction over and haven't received till hitherto is met today. You're satisfied. I say you're satisfied this day with mercy that you may rejoice, celebrate and be happy all the days of your life. Nothing is wrong building one's house that early and being under one's tree. There's a joy that comes from seeing your kids and wife playfully play in your own house. Receive that. Everything that'll make you satiated and come to the stage of being fulfilled, God is rendering to you now. So shall it be. Amen!

PRAYER: Lord, thank You for sealing that area of my life and coming to meet my needs. Be praised Yahweh.
