POSTING LETTER IS OUT! - Loosed For Purpose Series 006
Read I Sam. 17
I Samuel 17:20, KJV
"And David rose up early in the morning, and left the sheep with a keeper, and took, and went, as Jesse had commanded him; and he came to the trench, as the host was going forth to the fight, and shouted for the battle."
Say with me, "posting letter is out!" Repeat it like five times. Then, go ahead and burst into laughter.
Listen, posting letter is out. You have been DEPLOYED! The General has given the go ahead for you to proceed after much wait. You shall no longer be landlocked here but you'll be brought into national attention and recognition. Where you are is too small for you. It's not an enough room. God knows as the One who gives man enough room. He can take you to Rehoboth and that's where your posting letter is designated for. I bear good news, you've been DEPLOYED and it is to a good end.
David, the shepherd could have remained a shepherd forever if his posting letter didn't come out rightly on time. From going back and forth from Saul and to tending the sheep of his father, David could just have remained in total obscurity without anyone ever tasting of the value, bravery, might, leadership skills etc that he carries. Thank God, the Almighty reached for him. He stretched out his arm and drew him out of per time obscurity and the land of no fruit. God closed a chapter of obscurity in his life and made him a national hero. I'm seeing you at the State House. You have something to do there. The King will soon owe you gratitude. Yes, so shall it be.
For forty days and forty nights, things are at a stand still at the battle front. No one ever dare proceed to take the Goliath Challenge. At such a time that Israel has been defeated at heart for the fear of the enemy, God raises a rod - it buds rightly and its branch extends to the battle field. God whispers to Jesse and Jesse for a reason he might not be able to verbalize properly sent David to the battle field to check on the welfare of his brethren. Who does that? You gave children away as soldiers, should you not know they have signed their deaths? Why should you yet send another who should dwell safely with you to go and check on the welfare of such who should live in no fear of harm or death? Things seem not to be adding up but it all makes sense to God. David has been deployed by an invisible hand to take away the shame that Goliath the uncircumcised Philistine has brought on God's people and God Himself.
We know the rest as it is history. Without David's word arriving first, without his season having opened up first of all, He could not have been remembered. But when remembrance came, he was rightly and immediately deployed to the place where he should be exalted, becoming the obsession of everyone even to the enquiring of the king when he says, "whose son is this youth?" David enters immediately into the annals of national records. Musicians of his day immediately rolled out albums singing, "Saul has killed his thousands but David has killed his ten thousands" (I Sam.18:7).
Today, you shall be called to where the carcass is gathered for you. Today, you'll experience destiny meet. You'll go on an errand that'll be a link to the beginning of your destiny manifestation. A hand will point to you where destiny is slated to happen for you. You shall not be late. You'll be on time and so collide with destiny and climb up irrevocably through that open door to become all in God's mind for you. Your journey has begun! Believe!
PRAYER: Father, my journey has begun. I ask for a destiny meet - the intent of every deployment letter.
