UNTIL HE COMES WHOSE RIGHT IT IS

I Samuel 17:23-24, KJV

"23 And as he talked with them, behold, there came up the champion, the Philistine of Gath, Goliath by name, out of the armies of the Philistines, and spake according to the same words: and David heard them. 24 And all the men of Israel, when they saw the man, fled from him, and were sore afraid."

If you hit on another man's assignment, it won't prove for you because according to allotment, you were not allotted that assignment. Things prove if such task is one's task from the Lord. For forty days and forty nights, the Philistine, Goliath of Gath defied the armies of the Lord without a mouth to stop his railing. The Bible records that he comes forth daily to intimidate and challenge Israel. As he does this, he sends shivers into the spines of the soldiers and they flee from him. Why is it so difficult for one not to have stepped forward to stop or fight Goliath as he proposed a one on one fight? Are they all not trained men? Do you know why none was able to peep out or concede to fight him? It is because Goliath was not their assignment. So, they lacked the anointing, inner stirring, persuasion, assurance and daring spirit to combat him. When all these are lacking in a man, it indicates such assignment hasn't been willed him from above. What is yours from above is what God will corresponds you to handle. Even if it is bigger than you, God will bow it for you to gloat over. It's just one way of God showing His commitment to all He calls and who are ready to work for Him in their respective areas of specialization.

All of us must seek to find what God has given us to do and then stick to same. Why would Saul be handicapped killing Goliath? It's simply because God has not accorded Goliath amidst those he'll kill. That trophy was reserved for David and it was evident in how none could attempt the assignment until he came. They had to wait until he whose right it is came. Despite the honey dripping prizes of Saul, yet no one was able to still risk it. That David agreed to fight Goliath didn't proceed from the flesh. It was a divine motivation of his will to go face him. Nothing natural of small David and his crude weapons would have loved to fight Goliath if not for a divine motivation. If you're not being propelled or inspired to do something hard (start ministry, found and plant churches, confront or declare etc) and you want to prove you have the training or skill to do it, it can kill you. All those soldiers had the training but they lacked the inspiration to see Goliath as a piece of meat to swallow. Inspiration is the push, the Spirit that urges on on the inside that no one sees yet assures His host victory. It's that same motivation that didn't let David see like others saw. They saw a giant. He was seeing a man that will have the destiny of the bear and lion he had killed. Yet, we knew Goliath isn't this cheap but at the end we could judge whether he was cheap or not. 

Assignments could wait for years until the man God created to execute them is born, raised, equipped and sent to get it done. The assignment of Jesus saving the world waited like that - for years of years. Prophecies hinted at it [Isa.7:14, Matt.1:21, Micah 5:2]. The army was at a standstill until the divine hand moved Jesse to play his part in the script by sending David to the army.  Naturally, God will equalize you with your assignment. There will be an inbuilt in you that can do whatsoever assignment that are your God-given assignments. Goliath was God given to David and was reserved for him until he comes whose right it is. This should comfort you that what you're called to do is reserved for you to discover and execute. Also, it should sound warning to you not to prey on an assignment that's not yours or else it'll prey on you. Know your measure. Your measure is your specific assignment and it's made known to you by the conviction through inspiration you'll have to face it even when others (of better skills, reputation, fame, age etc) flees from it. 

PRAY: Lord, answer hovering and pending generational prayers of saints to raise deliverers for nations, people, tongue, communities, families. Raise a Saviour. Raise me as one.

ARE YOU UNDER CONSTRAIN? - Heart of Wisdom Series 012

READ John 9:1-9

John 9:4,KJV

"I MUST work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.

Jesus said the above verse before He went to heal that blind man. In it, you'll see compulsion. He constrained Himself. Anyone who will therefore as a matter of compulsion do His Father's work must have mastered himself. You need great discipline and conquering of your body(flesh) so at its lusting after other things (contrary to your calling), you won't be taken away from what your works are. Unless your flesh is subjected to your willing spirit, you may not be able to (as a matter of compulsion) lay hold on yourself to do the works of Him that sent you. The spirit is willing but the flesh is weak. If your yearning is diverse, forget about doing the Father's works. Anyone who says, "I MUST do the works of Him that sent me...." and will make it good must be ready for a fight with distraction. If he's not vowing full time duty, he may be excused. At a time, they wanted to make Jesus king but He escaped it intentionally because He already knew the type of works He was called to (John 6:15). You'll meet luring and juicy attractions like this that will appeal to take you out of what you're designated and consecrated for - the works of the Father, your very calling.

"I MUST" means "I MUST" always be up and doing. This is not the matter of whether you feel like working or not. You must put yourself under such a great constraint while reminding yourself how much you owe someone. Jesus owes the Father. It is His (the Father's) work Jesus was obligated doing. Jesus will give accounts. That became part of the revelation and knowledge that drove Jesus to do the works of He that sent Him while He could do it (at the day). He's a man under obligation. That Jesus was human when He walked this earth will help us greatly. If He was human, it means He was as well tempted in every point as we are not to do the works of He that sent Him. I just said He was almost made a king yet didn't disappoint His consecration. This is what we are called to aspire to. Being human may mean you and I may not always be willing to do the works of He that sent us. We must then learn how not to disqualify ourselves further but how to be qualified. Whenever you wake up, pick up a confession to make yourself willing to go about your Father's business daily. What a positive confession from Jesus. He put Himself in a willing position by that confession of "I MUST (whether I like it or not).... That will then create a good atmosphere of work around you. Words are spells. They can bind or loose you. This will tear off you the garment of reluctance and laziness. He said, "I MUST work the works of He..." "I must!" It just keeps ringing in my mind. Many of us can't be said to have tried at all. We have not yet given our best. We're still working only when we are comfortable. We rise when we can. We sleep when nature calls for it yet at the works' expense. We only do ministry when we are inspired and not by faith when we don't feel like. Why live purposefully only "in season" and not "out season (II Tim. 4:2).

But Jesus worked at both times. He constrained Himself to work here and you can bear Him witness His working was not in vain because He eventually brought wholeness to that blind man. Have you appeased, convinced and win your mind and body to work by saying, "listen now, I must WORK and do the works of He that sent me." Have you? I'm hearing, "you've not yet resisted until the shedding of blood." You're only coasting along. You've not been gripped by the works. If it does, you'll always be ready to work in order to fulfill the obligation, constraint or oath by which you're bound here. If you don't know, Jesus' statement there was very much binding oneself with difficult words that he can't dissociate from later but see to its fulfilment. Jesus has become my own example. He holds Himself unto a higher standard more than anyone could request of Him. He doesn't give excuses. He's a man of one straight confession, "I MUST work the works of He...." What a sense of duty! Knowing He has been limited to working "in the day", He brought fulfilling purpose to a matter of necessity and not what He'll do as hit and run. Today, God is asking to know whether you've been living in the awareness of brevity of time and life under "I Must" or "I May."

PRAY: Baptize me with the power of decision, discipline and grace me to be a doer.

WHEN NO MAN CAN WORK - Heart of Wisdom Series 011

John 9:4, KJV

"I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work."

Jesus is indeed a revealing and emphatic teacher. He knew that "at night" no man can work. There's no remedy to it. At night, you're useless because night makes you useless. At old age, it is only little you can do. That's even before death, the ultimate night comes. You'll lack strength to move from your bedroom to the bathroom in the same jurisdiction. Your hands may be shaking. Spoon may not stay in your hands. You'll need another to help you rise or walk because uninvited weaknesses or sicknesses might begin to appear. Is this the time you want to establish that enterprise? Is this the time you want to take your vision to all continents and reach men through all possible means? Is it at this time of no pleasure you want to do high things? Stop waiting to learn the consequences of being slow to put your youthfulness to work. Even in the natural, we know God has not created the night for work though we might transgress there for good reasons. There's a natural or cosmos law God put there which makes humans obey the natural night. Though man has power of choice to obey sleep or not (which comes very much easily at night), yet he knows the designated period God has given him to lay down before he goes to his work in the day is this night time (a period in the day). 

Psalms 104:23, KJV

"Man goeth forth unto his work and to his labour until the evening."

Until the what? If he goes to his work until the evening, what do you think he comes back to do in the evening? To rest! What I'm hearing is that, "the night comes when no man can work." Those men may desire working. They may have it laid in their hearts to do great things for Jehovah but nature and the laws of cosmos will fizzle them out and weed them away. This is a warning to those who are slowing down themselves by living in sin and heeding all forms of distraction. If the night (which begins at old age naturally) catches up with you, even if you have desire and plans that can raise a tower to the sky, they can never be implemented by you. How painful it is then when where God could have used one, it is another he has found for use?  Did you not hear Solomon speak? He said the grave whither you go, there's neither work, device or knowledge there? Night was not created for work but sleep. Darkness symbolizes and heralds night time while the light signifies the breaking of the day. The appearance of darkness should communicate something to you. When we sleep, we close our eyes. That's how our eyes shall be finally closed in death. You can't say I have an idea in that realm. Earth is where we test the practicality of anything, build invention and affect our world and for same get recognition. In the realm of the dead, it is stillness forever. The night hurries. It comes. You near it and it nears you. Unfortunately, night is a slave master and enforcer of one principle. "No work!" Night has enough potency: known and unknown that weakens and disqualifies any man: male or female from setting his heart to doing anything he may see worthy to do. Before night makes nonsense of you, make nonsense of it with all revenge and daily utilization of your time. Achieve in these few years you have to live and be willing and sweetened at heart to meet your Saviour at appearance.

PRAYER: I fall on night before it falls on me. I receive wisdom to beat the potency of night.

RACE AGAINST THE DYING OF THE LIGHT - Heart of Wisdom Series 010

John 9:4, KJV

"I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work."

Our race is against the "night" that comes. I want you to really understand the Master and His speech here. He said, "for night comes when no man can work." He spoke with such emphasis and gravity that even the fool amidst men will get. Night has not come He said but it will come. It is even hurrying. It comes like a legion of soldiers whose feet causes a great earthquake. Don't rejoice it is far away. Be sober and make life count. That's why there are sayings like, "time's winged chariot", "how quick does time flies etc." The distance between where you are now and where you'll one day be (the grave) is the space or allowance you have to live and do the works of Him that sent you. God intentionally spares you that time. Out of it, we work, pleasure, marry, raise children and do all they were doing in Noah's time.

Have you heard of rain stopping people before, especially those that were warned to set out early so they'll reach before being interrupted by it? That's neglect on their part and they'll pay for it. In same way, Jesus was saying, night is coming. That's sure. That's why we have to live like there's no tomorrow now. We can't sleep that thought away. We may despise it but at its time on each person, it will find fulfilment. The "night time" of individuals on earth differs. When A will pass away is not when B will go. Even, out of the two couples, it is usually one who will first depart. Moses knew this truth. That's why under divine inspiration, he said, "our years is 70 and if by reason of strength 80." Ask yourself, when will my 80 come? That doesn't mean you can't exceed 80 years of age. Moses while speaking talked to set the end of usefulness. Anyone at 80 even if he's still living actively is a retired human being somehow and indeed he should begin to make preparation to meet his Lord. There's nothing you can do to it. He's already at his decline and termination nears. It is a law and set of system operating itself. You can't chance it but it can chance you. Aging is a reality even if any dies naturally. Death or this "night" chances people when they die young. So, learn all things that will make you fulfill the number of your days and then live by same. It includes not living contrarily to your body/ human sustenance, understanding your environment and not breaking its laws, living by faith, God's will, God's promises which can't be broken etc. Abiding by all these can elongate your "night time." It doesn't mean you won't die but you'll rather fulfill the number of your days. By the time you finalize your aging period, what is next is death, even natural death. We all know we arrive this earth by birth and must exit by death. It is not a return to childhood. It is a setting to rest at your final house. So, that truth is a secured truth. Night comes and you ought understand that. Night don't take a damn and it won't pity anyone. That's why we have this written in the Bible also.

Job 2:4, KJV

"And Satan answered the LORD, and said, Skin for skin, yea, all that a man hath will he give for his life."

That verse confirms "night" to always appear. Man could give all he has to stay alive indeed. Life is precious and we're only privileged having it. That breath in us isn't ours. It is God's and He do take His thing when it's ripe (Gen.2:7). We've heard of those who sold all their properties to hold this night from being fulfilled on them. The woman with the issue of blood did it in the Bible. She came to penury to keep living. She does because if there's still life, there's still hope. However, once that "night is fully come", it can't be evaded. So, I'll say, "that verse only applies to temporarily holding of death." Man must return to dust from which he was taken (Gen.3:19). Dust is he and to dust he must return. Let that into you sink and in temperance and urgent urgency live your life. Affect lives and don't hoard your wealth for yourself only. Share to this and that. Cast your bread upon the waters and after many days, you'll find them. It is what any dead has done that will speak for him afterwards. Their deeds always follow them. Live remarkably and purposefully so that your voice will speak still like righteous Abel's even at rest. Death isn't the end of impact making. It may be the beginning for some. If Abel still speaks at his death, you can live on still speaking (impacting or having effect) even after dying.

PRAYER: Sensitize me to areas of adjustment and improvement for quickening and better functioning as night hurries.

BECAUSE NIGHT COMES - Heart of Wisdom Series 009

Read John 9:1-9

John 9:4-5, KJV

"4 I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work. 5 As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world."

I hope you know we don't have all day here. We will transit. We can't but pass to glory. This tabernacle of flesh will give way. Why we even call it "body" is because it is merely our house where the spirit, the hidden man of the heart indwells (I Pet.3:4). We've tarried on Psalm 90:12 specifically for these 8 days and we shall make further references to it. Jesus was confronted with the healing of a blind man from birth. After answering the question that confused his disciples, he proceeded to saying, "He must work the works of He that sent Him..." Did he stop there or indeed manifest the work of He that sent Him which he had afore referred to? Immediately, Jesus who knew His time was not as long as the tongue spits on the ground, makes clay and anoints the eyes of this blind with it. Then, He instructed him to go bathe in the pool of Siloam. He was healed!Jesus isn't a mere confessor. He is a doer. Realization has first of all dawned on Him. He knew He won't last for eternity and that He only have a short time for ministry to the children of men on earth. So, He never delays or postpones what is His appointed work dealt Him by the Father. Rather, after such confession of Himself as the light of the world, He makes preparation to heal the man. He has been equipped. He didn't waste equipping.

Have you gained a heart of wisdom like this or you're still beating the streets lamely and irrelevantly around? Jesus knew the season that's always upon Him. He said it and you saw His determination towards achieving what He has discovered to be true. If Jesus we respected said something, it should worth noting. He said, He  must do the works of He that sent Him while it is day because night comes. Something is inevitable. It is the night falling. It is the night shadowing and falling on you in particular. You'll then be trapped because you won't be able to further any work or device or knowledge again on this earth. The revelation is always, "the grave where you go (Eccl.9:10)." You draw nearer to it daily. It is your final destination and it's in front of you. You and I will one day get in. 

How many people are still veiled? Where are those that urgency of assignment has not yet gripped? I'll say, you can't but waste away. You'll not only waste away but waste men away. How? The divine ingredient given you to make impact amidst men won't be used at all. So, where you could have been felt, you'll just pass away like that like a snake that slithers on a rock without trace. Then, God will then allocate those who awaited your revelation and then manifestation to another so they won't be unfortunate and irrelevant on the earth (not finding their own purpose) because you've failed God and them. Be like your Master, Jesus who couldn't delay healing that man at the time He found him. His saying was, "look, I'm totally consumed, feeling compassionate towards healing this man. I must work the works of He that sent me. Why delay what I have to do since I don't have all day." That's the Word who was with the Father at the beginning speaking that way. Despite that, He acknowledges His being a human. If it were not so, He won't be hurrying against time. Let low of the truth that Jesus carried the anointing without measure. The day He was born is the day His time started counting. The fact that He'll die at thirty three plus started hurrying from that day onward and He knew it and so made good use of that knowledge. The knowledge some fear having at hand is what others uses to further themselves. This is why he admonished himself not to waste time but to be set to work. His admonishing himself before His disciples also mean they should model their lives after His. If you're a disciple of Christ indeed, you won't deny time is running against you and you won't deny setting right away to work and do with all your might, intelligence, resources, device what your hand has found to do. If the Master modelled it to us, we must do same and model same to men. (I Cor 11:1).

PRAYER: We have a perfect mentor in Jesus. May I do His works. May what gripped Him become my revelation to live out God's will in my soul.

A PREACHER FROM THE DEAD IS PREFERABLE - Heart of Wisdom Series 008

READ Luke 16:19-31

Luke 16:27-29, KJV

"27 Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father's house: 28 For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment. 29 Abraham saith unto him, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them."

Yesterday, we saw that the prayer of Moses, "teach us to number our days..." which obviously was an address to God finds fulfilment through God finding preachers who could reveal the urgency and graveness with which man ought to do his work on earth due to his brevity of life which he needs to discover. Today's teaching reemphasizes that. God won't come from heaven to teach man like that. He'll rather oracle this truth and cause this revelation dawn on man by partnering with some called and taught men on earth. In today's passage, a debate of no mean importance ensues between a certain rich man and Father Abraham. He is thirsty (being in hell) and would want Father Abraham send Lazarus (who was in his bosom) to quench his thirst by just a dip of his finger tip into water. What value would that be to him? Nothing. He made that humble request because he had lost all sense of entitlement. So, he couldn't decree big in boldness. When people sin or are in any fallen state, they lose their right and act this way like a slave. If a partner commits adultery and the other gets to know, the same principle goes into play. They lose sense of entitlement even if they're no longer condemned or judged by the other. Until they could see themselves in the right image and as co-owner and possessor of things of the other, they'll continue to act as an outcast to acknowledge their status of having fallen from grace, favour or love. This is why you should avoid being tainted by sin as much as it lies with you. Run from all its appearances if you don't want to lose sense of entitlement, boldness or right. 

Father Abraham wouldn't send Lazarus and he argued why he won't. He gave two points to counter this rich man's request (Luke 16:25-26). What a debate! Seeing Abraham's position on the inability of dwellers from each sides crossing to either of the sides, he saw the vanity of having his request granted and pressed on Abraham another request. Being already doomed, he switched his attention and began caring for the living though dead. He advocated that Lazarus be sent to go witness to his five brethren living on earth. Abraham didn't grant this again. He refuted him and had his request discarded by saying, "they have Moses and the prophets on the earth" to instruct them. The rich man still not pleased pressed further that the testimony of someone from a supernatural or fearful realm like "of the dead" would be extraordinary, esteemed and persuading enough to be believed. Father Abraham said they won't believe the testimony from the dead if they can't believe the law and the prophets with them. That's how Father Abraham won all the cases which the rich man opened. God is just. He'll always give us a fear hearing and explanation that can't be debated any longer.

The point is this. Preachers were not send to earth from this place (Abraham's bosom), neither will they be sent to earth from heaven now. God is saying, "your teachers are with you." That man pressed for it but it always met with a stiff refusal. Father Abraham kept telling him they've been provided for and the provision is on earth already and not any where else. Don't be shocked, what many are looking for from the far distance is actually by their side but familiarity is blinding them to taking it. We men have falsely trained ourselves to believe in the super taste. We would ask, "can it take me further, give me a feeling that's beyond this world, launch me into a craze that's different?" That's how some became addicted today because they were chasing to catch feelings even to its highest level on the long run. Yet, an illusion. This craving for  what is but already there make men unnecessary thirsty of something from a world beyond even when God Himself has granted them that by placing it with them or amidst them. To long for the divine or the supernatural is part of our core. There's a gulf that only Eternity can satisfy. The Bible is there to have such wonder or truth revealed to you today. The Holy Spirit will give you its explanation as you read it. However, the preachers in all their offices are called and caused by God to bring revelation of this same written word on us all. So, we listen to them and hear God speak through them. God has not left us without witness. Did He not speak that He'll raise a prophet for his people from amidst them and He did (Acts 3:22). What I'm emphasizing on is that the prayer of Moses, "teach us to number our days..." has been answered and will be answered continually by God giving men to teach the truth that will bring such understanding and possession of a heart of wisdom on them. This is the dealing of God - that He raises mortal men to have released through them the will of the Immortal. The question should be, "how well have you been listening to what the Bible and those oracles of God teaches to be true in the will of God?" I hear, "your preachers are with you." If you won't be persuaded to receive the truth of the gospel through them, you won't still be persuaded if there's a supernatural rising or send forth from God. You can't but remain a waster, despiser, neglect and rebel to all divine inputs sent to salvage and save your soul. 

PRAYER: Lord, grant me estimation for your Word and ministers. I won't be a despiser of holy things.

GOD HAS FOUND A MOUTH TO SPEAK THROUGH - Heart of Wisdom Series 007

Read John 9:1-7

Psalms 90:12, KJV

"So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom."

The prayer of Moses was that God would teach the generation judged and soon to pass away that they might get a heart of wisdom. A heart of wisdom is one that has already been instructed or taught. It is a ready made heart indwelling man. In temperance of living, it is tempered while bearing eternity in mind. This manifests in what life of focus, purpose and dedication he lives daily. He has sieved himself away from what doesn't profit and only lives for one thing - "why am I here on earth?" Meanwhile, will God come down from above to begin to teach all men that are living life outside the revelations of death's inevitability and brevity of life to change in order to reroute them? No! He won't because such task is already given to men amidst men. Moses cried to God, "teach us to number our days..." God does that through His messengers. They're designated for same.

Romans 10:14, KJV

"14 ...and how shall they hear without a preacher?"

Preachers or teachers have been raised and equipped to teach all God's counsel. This includes not withholding from their congregation the ever stable fact that death is the end of all things and that that death might come even sooner than they think. They have victory over death though and it isn't a thing to fear but that fact should make them gird themselves with utilizing their short life here. If you ask any man, I don't think there's any who will naturally embrace death when the earth is treating him well. That's why many evades thinking about death but say, "it doesn't matter since I can't but one day  die eventually." So, they neglect the place of living with focus which comes by having the revelation of life being temporal on the earth. They however are numbered amidst those who scatter their forces, strength and ability and so couldn't be recognized for having achieved something in particular in this life. They chased too many things - of which many were distractions but of which one is their calling (which should have been the one thing they should have done) just like Paul said, "this one thing I do..." Paul also said to a congregation that he has not withdrawn from them God's whole counsel.

Acts 20:26-27, KJV

"26 Wherefore I take you to record this day, that I am pure from the blood of all men. 27 For I have not shunned to declare unto you all the counsel of God."

There are ministers now who select what to teach people and neglect others which are also fit for edification or setting right. Teach all is what we're admonished whether it is bitter to swallow or not. You must also know that your office is a special privilege. They can't hear if you won't preach or teach. God called and anointed you to teach all these things with the authority and strength of the called He has given you. Your office as a minister was given you by the Lord Jesus Christ who gave gifts to men and set men in their different offices for the perfecting of the saints (Ephesians 4:8-14). So, don't waver but teach them God's whole counsel which includes this one I'm on. You didn't call yourself. God did and it is He you'll also have to do with one day. So, rejoice in your calling as one called to teach men what God would want them know for respectful living on earth. Don't forget, time is running. We must therefore do the works of He that sent all of us while it is day because night comes when no man shall work no longer. If night (the day of death) is never sure, we could then recline a million years doing nothing with our might as we should do. As long as we are on this earth, we should choose to be the light of the world. We can't choose to be darkness because Jesus was not. He was the light of the world and conscience of it. We don't have much time for experimentation. This truth on right living or what is most suitable to abide by has been proven and given us. If we had a million years to live, then we could choose to be darkness for awhile before coming back to live with commitment as light - one who shows others the path to follow in Christ and lives out the coding on purpose left in his soul at creation. Today, God is saying, my teaching you how to number your days is not something you'll have to come to heaven for or get transported in a trance before you're instructed about it, the words are with my preachers - even the word of truth. Those preachers luckily are on earth. They're the ones I will move on and through to bring you timely messages by which you'll get a heart of wisdom on how to live life like he who has been slated not to see tomorrow. Preachers, preach it!
