WHAT GOD TOLD ME - Adjusting This Your Mirror!

WHAT GOD TOLD ME - Adjusting This Your Mirror!

The Lord picked a discourse with me and I sat back to listen to Him. 

I was ruminating on our being prospered eventually - building a house for the Lord for all nations to lift up holy hands to the Most High. As this went on, the Lord met me in my thought. He came with an interruptive explanation. His explanation was explanatory and insightful enough. Thank you my Father for always being at hand.

The Lord said, "while that is good, do you know there are those who disbelieve in what is too big and popular? You wanna know why? They just hold the belief that if a thing is God's initiated, owned, sponsored and controlled, it won't be too exceeding for them to see the end of its elasticity. Especially in this part of the world - Africa; when the Lord really enlarges you to the extent that you pull down your old barn in order to build new accommodating ones for the multitude of harvest that is beginning to break your wine skin, they'll begin suggestive talks like, "we certainly (kuku) don't know whether he's being aided by something other than this our same God." Nothing mysterious. Read this:

Luke 12:16-18, KJV

"16 And he spake a parable unto them, saying, The ground of a certain rich man brought forth plentifully: 17 And he thought within himself, saying, What shall I do, because I have no room where to bestow my fruits? 18 And he said, This will I do: I will pull down my barns, and build greater; and there will I bestow all my fruits and my goods."

Did you see in there consequences of being blessed? I pray for you, "let your ground bring forth plentifully. Let your handiwork bring exceeding yield. Let what you plough or work at bring you such productivity that you'll need greater store houses." Such work, only God does it. You can plant or water as a minister but it's God that gives the increase. When the time thus comes that such net breaking, ship sinking and wine skin bursting blessings begin to visit as a reward, you can't but look for means of accommodating it. One of the resultant effects of too much blessing in a ministry is a defying population. It'll be so huge that you'll need to pull down your old auditorium to build a new one. In some cases, if the population is growing abysmally and at a rate that your often calculation can't catch up with, you may need a wall less church. It is God who solitarily does this. But as this happens, get ready to contend with the testimonies of those who would say, "it is by another spirit you've been thus hastened and brought this far." In Jesus' days, He was accused of same and He answered them back according to their folly. 

Matthew 12:24, 27, KJV

"24 But when the Pharisees heard it, they said, This fellow doth not cast out devils, but by Beelzebub the prince of the devils. 27 And if I by Beelzebub cast out devils, by whom do your children cast them out? therefore they shall be your judges."

So, though it is God working in their own days, they'll distance themselves away from Him. The veil would be, "I don't want to join the devil or what I don't know its foundation." I'll repeat it, that somebody's speed is so enhanced that he reached destination so timely doen't mean he has trespassed or transgressed. God's hand might have come upon him to outrun even Ahabs of his own days to the gates of Jezreel (their destination) - I Kings 18:46.

Now, listen to me the prejudiced, envious, jealous, mockers and slow in heart to believe. That you're not yet due for promotion doesn't connote those whose own have come hurries theirs also. There's no time I'm in the community of men where discussion/testimony on the recent promotion or enlargement of someone is ongoing that there won't be someone at least who would interject with, "who knows how he got it?" Though none knows except himself and God (his witness), yet this should not condescend or handicap you into seeing men as "there's none that's righteous." There are still lovers of God than the world. There's still a remnant. You might have been caught up in the error of Elijah who wasn't seeing and speaking right. He was professing with all assurance, "only I am left (I Kings 19:14)." It took God to show him 7,000 are still in reserve who have not yet bowed to Baal or kiss him (I Kings 19:18). Immediately, he became a quenched raging fire. May I announce to all of you hearing us today that we are part of those alluded "7,000" doing it right with utmost loyalty to the Head of the Church - Jesus. We have not aided our calling with anything other than Jesus and His finished work. It is by that His name "by which all knees are assured would kneel and all tongues are emphasised would confess" that we're doing all that appears and you see and you'll yet see. We can co confess with Peter and John that it is neither our power, holiness or another's but Jesus' only. 

Acts 3:12, KJV

"And when Peter saw it, he answered unto the people, Ye men of Israel, why marvel ye at this? or why look ye so earnestly on us, as though by our own power or holiness we had made this man to walk?"

It is rather whose? Jesus' name and faith in same (Acts 3:16).

Greater greatness is coming. You will see what will trouble your sight! We will pull down to build up in order to accommodate all God is sending us. Before this work, you'll see numerous overflows which would culminate into new building projects to house the heritage of God. At such time, any soul especially those whose ways are not clean or upright in heart may condescend to say, "do you know where he gets his power from?" We have learnt that "to the pure, everything is pure. To the crooked, things are twined also." How people see at times is a product of their own crooked experience which has intertwined them not to see uprightly again. They always infer others are failing and living unworthily  because they are. The reason for their big questioning suspicion on who could get it right! Vain people!

If God is your own Father and the Spirit, your Shepherd, can't you trust Him enough to be led to a genuine house of worship that added no sorrows? Why then accuse a denomination or lay a minister bare because the Lord is his upper arm. I tell all of you today, a time comes soon that God's work shall appear to all the earth. At such time, you'll serve as our witnesses that we have had days of no miracles before God reveals us to His body and the Gentiles. This is so that you may defend us at the gates yourself. That's why we're careful leaving a good witness behind as we go.

These are the discussions God brought to me on why some despite seeing the move won't join it in their time because they're trapped in the thinking of "who knows what they're doing?" This fear ought not to be fear at all. I'll say, "if you're really born again, you can't but have a witness about who to follow or which church to go to. Jesus is the head of the church. He knows churches with candle sticks before Him. He'll send you to one and to a Shepherd who will shepherd you in the integrity of his heart and skillfulness of his hands.

Psalms 78:70, 72, KJV

"70 He chose David also his servant, and took him from the sheepfolds: 72

So he fed them according to the integrity of his heart; and guided them by the skilfulness of his hands."

God solely does this. Don't choose a church or pastor for yourself. You can be led. Let the Spirit knit your heart with a minister. Such model minister's ministry is often your ministry also. Let deep calls unto the deep. At all these symptoms, you'll receive your pastor from God. Henceforth, stop believing what is correct and godly should only just be a parlour thing - like a church where all the members know themselves without elasticity and meeting of foreign tongues/nationalities. That's not the kind of church God is showing me. He's moving on me and breathing to me a church of many languages. Like the one we saw on Pentecost's Day. There will be many departments and you'll hear people speak in their own tongues. 

Acts 2:5, 9-11, KJV

"5 And there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men, out of every nation under heaven. 9 Parthians, and Medes, and Elamites, and the dwellers in Mesopotamia, and in Judaea, and Cappadocia, in Pontus, and Asia,

10 Phrygia, and Pamphylia, in Egypt, and in the parts of Libya about Cyrene, and strangers of Rome, Jews and proselytes, 11

Cretes and Arabians...."

This is a church where as the minister ministers, translation goes to people in their own languages because none must be left out of this move of God. If the vultures always gather where the carcass is, should gatherers in their different tongues and from their different nationalities not be a beneficiary of God's ongoing work. I see a church of a "thousand languages." I see all nations represented. Say with me, "Jesus to the world!"

WINDOWS IN HEAVEN!

Read II Kings 6:24-33, 7:1-2

II Kings 7:2, KJV

"Then a lord on whose hand the king leaned answered the man of God, and said, Behold, if the LORD would make windows in heaven, might this thing be? And he said, Behold, thou shalt see it with thine eyes, but shalt not eat thereof."

Elisha declared what the Lord would do but because of its unreasonableness in contrast with the ongoing situation, a lord examined it and judged it wrong. Situation has finally gotten him. Elisha said, "get ready for abundance"; he countered saying, "would that be possible even if God were to do a miracle."

Please brethren, under what condition then will it be possible to turn hopelessness around if not a "miracle" which has the potency to turn such unwanted situation caused by the Syrians around. If anyone will doubt a thing, it shouldn't be the fact that the mouth of the Lord said, "He'll do a miracle." We all know what a miracle is. We know that a miracle is a miracle. It is that which brings the divine to fore and to humanity's aid in order to cure his desperateness and needs. Miracles break conventions. If that be the case from our understanding of what miracle is, why should somebody then confess antagonistically that even "if the Lord does a miracle (by making windows in heaven), it won't still be possible for abundance to manifest." Yet, that's what God had said He'll do by that prediction of Elisha which ran ahead of the feedback of this straying lord. Are you seeing how mankind stumbles with his mouth? When things are hard and all hope gone, what else I repeat can we trust to plough and break the ground for us if not miracles? Why should any fool or wise one say then, "at the face of miracle, nothing would still change." Such must be crazy and he ought to be shown his folly because his denying that miracle can't be miraculous enough to make a turn around is actually accusing God of incapability. Such would have successfully said, "God's arm is short even if He stretches it out." That is slaughtering God and denouncing His power.

I was in the company of three people recently. We were praying. It was a very beloved sister of mine who was leading prayer on provision towards a cogent project ahead of us all. As the prayer tarried on provision, I saw that verse I quoted floating to me while same was  impressed firmly on my spirit. I heard, "windows in heaven!" Same was explained to me in that hour. The Lord responded, I'll make, "windows in heaven. I'll do a miracle and give one where you all thought less. I'll bring something out of nothing. I'll create ways where there are no ways in simple terms." This answer and explanation fitted the prayer request and so much assured me that I knew God was speaking to us. We've been praying for miraculous provision and encouraging ourselves to believe for same when I heard, "windows in heaven." I gave the brethren the prophecy and we concluded the prayer. That's how we secured our breakthrough and took God by His own appearing to us. Who's there thinking on provision? Who's there thinking of a way of escape over a thing? I declare, "windows in your heaven. Possibilities in your impossibilities. Ways for you where there'd been none. Something is made out of nothing for you."  No matter how hard things are for people and the world, you'll always hear a word behind you making your case different by the comforting declarative utterance of, "windows in heaven." This is your escape orchestrated by God. I say, "windows in heaven."

PRAYER: Thank you for windows in my heaven. Thank you for creating for me a way of escape. Thank you for bringing miracles to break my famine.

WHO WILL BELL THE CAT?

I Samuel 17:25, KJV

"And the men of Israel said, Have ye seen this man that is come up? surely to defy Israel is he come up: and it shall be, that the man who killeth him, the king will enrich him with great riches, and will give him his daughter, and make his father's house free in Israel."

GOD do put names on assignments. Specific people, specific assignments. Why is it difficult for any to attempt the Goliath project until David shows up? Yet it took forty days. Even the unprepared or yet decided could have decided. The challenge went viral and created a nightmare for all on the battle field yet none could attempt it. Something hidden being the reason is very much there. 

Brethren, if it is for you, God will preserve it for you. There's a place of "none will break rank (Joel 2:7)." As long as you're in peace with God, and in all conscience ready for God's will to be done, you'll always meet it. The Goliath project became "who will bell the cat?" Not at the start when Goliath first came out but after none including Saul could offer himself to go purge Israel of the shame. It was then the king set a price that whosoever purges the shame off Israel shall be greatly rewarded with a wife, riches and his family free from taxing in Israel. You'll still think somebody would be able to attempt it for the coveting of the prize? That even makes it hard. Such price set on Goliath exaggerates his mightiness in the sight of all. So, until David came, they were all in search of one person, "he who will bell the cat." It is not every person that God has given the revelation and conviction to get a task done to. If it doesn't enters your mind at all, it's not even your colony. If it does and it's not clear to you, you can't discharge it. God uses these and many ways to call each of us where He'll like us settle - where He needs men to be beneficial to mankind. All of us can't go and cluster in one profession. We aren't ants. We don't do what sells, we do destiny which has been left in our core or created with us. Each of us would have where God wants us colonize because of God's allocation of assignments and destinies to us. I read of a nineteen years old who created a Block chain that early and even had to drop out of school because he was crazily sought after and couldn't maintain schooling with his job. At nineteen, he's in high esteem like any adult professional. At such age, he was sponsoring an elder brother of his studying overseas and covering multitude of bills which ranges from touring the world on his own to doing jobs and attending great lessons. I coveted having being seriously made like him. God told me, "you're made. Where each of you excels is what is different. While he is being noised in the cryptocurrency, Block chain world, you're finding usefulness in my hands in ministry. It was then I even remembered that I had started earlier like him also and at that age he struck it, I had been going about my Father's business as well very well. However, the mind of anyone could be deceived to say, "what about his fame? Did you have that?" God told me, "some things are reproachful to men. They don't easily win their recognition but as you persist in it, I'll draw all men to myself."

Brethren, God has placed usefulness for each of us somewhere. There's a place where rising and becoming a star is easier for us all. It shows David would be greater than Saul seeing what he began achieving at a tender age than Saul in the same field. It's like where Saul ended it was where David would begin from. No matter how covetous you may be, you can't break rank to go and find value where God destined your friend finds. You may covet what he's becoming, just be careful not to get distracted away from your own area of grace where God has good thoughts for you too. Here's David, it is his to bell the cat. Though he was not brought to battle, neither a soldier, neither given hearing by Eliab nor refined with the latest weapons, he still did the job succinctly. You see, there's a grace for success wherever God tags with us that each of us succeeds. I tell you that if any warrior of Israel had gone to confront Goliath that day, they'll have embalmed his body. What is challenge to those not called to a thing is nothing to the man God destined to get the job done. That cryptocurrency boy can't write the devotional I'm writing also. It ain't his allocation nor his geography. I pray for you that you'll not become a fool wanting to be everywhere. That you won't begin to compare yourself with others because some are finding early obvious achievements. I pray that you'll face front, add diligence to your quarters of calling and see how where you'll be great where you've been placed you'll effortlessly bell your cat. All of us are created for achievement and profit, where and when we'll take it is what is different. If you've began, stay there. David himself didn't stop training with the sling and stone because he saw his brothers using sword. Let God's natural process graduates you. 

PRAYER: Lord, I face front. I receive contentment and commitment. As a man fitted for my task, I submit to discharge to the later.

YOU'LL ALWAYS FIND ACCEPTANCE BECAUSE YOU'LL ALWAYS MEET YOURS

YOU'LL ALWAYS FIND ACCEPTANCE BECAUSE YOU'LL ALWAYS MEET YOURS

Yesterday, I received the shock of my life from Mile 12 to New Garage, Lagos. It happened that the vehicle I boarded had a conductor who couldn't made sense of money. He couldn't deduce what amount should be given back as change after collecting money from individuals. In this bus crowded with market women who are patronizers of this driver and his lacking in Maths conductor was where I got to receive some lessons I now teach.

I wondered, "in this Lagos. Eko wejenle (the never dare Lagos). Eko ile ogbon (outright teaching centre ready to teach the sluggish and unlearned). Is it where this "folly" is being practised? "How's the driver coping with this man who he had to help over and over again understand simple Maths with which to settle their passengers? Yet, he's driving and again busying himself with accountability on money matters. Why would he have such a man for himself? Couldn't he lay him off?" That last question was the beginning of my find.

God told me, "if he were laid off, how would he (the unmathematical conductor) feed? That's his place. He has chosen to work as a bus conductor and it becomes a must that I find him a place and a support system. God said, "I created that driver for him - to tolerate and bear with his folly, sluggishness and strangenesses." The conductor is not sharp as all of you passengers rightly observed. As a matter of fact, their regular patronizers (the traders) in the vehicle already knew him and his boss (the driver). They, (Driver and Conductor) have learnt by experience how to relate and manage themselves. I only had to speak to A to accommodate B." I was shocked hearing all these!

The Spirit of truth then continued His enlightening saying, "same way, I have ordained that all of you would marry. All of you would marry including the thought less off. Time may differ." I asked, "how?" He said, "I have created for individuals those who will accept them." You may not be clean, whole or totally proficient. This may slow your acceptance process as always esteemed by men. You may have a thing lacking somewhere but there's someone who had been created, placed somewhere by God for you with an instruction and a compelling one at that to receive you as you are (that's not to condone areas you could improve on anyway). I'm only speaking of atrophied portions of our lives that we can't change but accept, live and bear with. For example, someone is a stammerer or an albino. Some may not want to marry them for that. As a matter of fact, the Spirit said, "He created them (the endurers) to find that deficient and accept him or her like that." It pleases me to say that God originally had created such people with a forbearance, long-suffering, patience and an inside or module in them etc to cope with such deficients (in whatsoever aspect) it occurs in such people they'll be team mated with.

The Bible says without repentance that, "God sets the solitary in families (Psalm 68:6). A solitary is a single fellow: brother or sister. When the Bible says that, did you not sense commitment of God in that statement? It means, "it is my duty, obligation and very much within my power to see that all of you including the "worst" of you (in human terms or tagging) marries. It is you humans who categorise one person as fine and the other as lacking. But you are all my creatures, my handiwork irrespective of how you're delivered to this earth (born) or what a cause on earth has turned you to (i.e. injury, accident etc). You're all my children. I have a commitment to see to it that you're all set in a family. I exclaimed, "Kai, my Father!" God told me, "is any maimed, diseased, down syndromed, hyper emotional, over sensitive or unbearable to the community of "proper men?" He said, "such fellow has a fit and He'll find him or her their fit." Their fit like that driver would have been levied with tolerance and inbuilt to long suffer with them. They're specially created or have been tended by training and what life has thrown at them or taught them to bear with such deficients when their paths cross. Brethren, you're not forsaken because God has prepared someone for you (that your path has likely not crossed with) to bear you up from rejection, shame, your inadequacies and bear with you (as you both live together). That's he or she who would understand you. 

God said, because I'm obligated to feed all my creatures; I hooked that moron conductor up with a driver who would bear with him. At least, I feed the birds who neither sow or reap. The lilies also get clothed and the green grass who are sooner turned into the oven. How much more you? Am I not taking thought for you?

Are you saying, "you'll forever lack a partner because of the hemorrhage, occasional insanity, seizure (that leads to public shame) you're facing? God said, "No!" I can hook you up even to an outright better person. The person would just need to see a "better part of you." Even the most despised have a selling point. Even if you're a normal human being, you can't have all aspects of you perfect. There'll also be a place where you'll also need to be tolerated. Those of you who don't have obvious challenge manifesting in any physical deficiency for instance, would you indeed say, "you have no problem when you know as I do that you have anger issue, accountability problem, emotional weakness, spiritual and character defect etc." Yet, you have found a helpmeet. Let us ask again and again, "how did you get this done?" God simply found you one. Just one who your mountains doesn't bother as such. 

Some of you married as over age people also. Some even remarry because of deceased spouse or divorce to end up again with virgin singles yet as single parents! How did you get to marry another with the hang over of a kid from your past relationship? Or don't you know that the higher population of both sexes don't want to marry somebody who has been afore "gotten" and then has "baggage." Yet, because God is under obligation to fulfill Psalm 68:6, He marries you off to another again. He always has a fixer for you. Do you think it's because you have a clean face and bogus buttocks? Many there be who have those ephemerals who are still without covers. It's this commitment of "I set the solitary in families" that each of us enjoys. All of us have people who won't accept us when offered them even if we're the most graced, beautiful, wealthy or straight up people. However, God has one for us. That's my own comfort and should be yours also. To shock you, somebody might even be turned off because of your superfluous credentials. They'll say, "I want to marry someone who's silent." I met a lady who's now a rising star in her profession who told me she would never never marry a star. I said, "how would you know? "I'll just know. I know what I want out of life", she replied. Today, she is a star and I'm thinking she wanted a silent partner because of who she has discovered she'll become. So, she was looking for a point of contact to be hooked with her very opposite. You know, it is always magnet that attracts iron."

People, check your balance. Add, subtract, divide, multiply. Just do the sum. Who do you account yourself to be that you think you can't be fixed up. God is the greatest matchmaker though a pastor in any church has a fragment of this duty on him to help two people also get married by looking at two people who could do themselves good, won't be disgusted with themselves as pairs and then introduce (but without force) same to each other. If they're good in each other's sight and it pleases God, they may eventually hook up together. 

Look, God has an address, a person and a love in mind for you. You'll be satisfied eventually. The day you find acceptance from such people, you'll turn round and ask yourself if you were the one who has been rejected till hitherto. You'll just be dazed! It won't be reasonable again to you but it would make sense to God and His divine community. 

Look at me, are there not many widows in Israel before God sent Elijah to Zarephath? Are there not many lepers to be healed before God crafted  Elisha down for Naaman (Matt. 4:25-27). You have a fixer! One you'll enter into like hook and eye do. One who will meet all you are or have become. The fit! You have he who will receive you with both arms without murmuring or grumbling. His confession to the horrible shock of others would be, "look at the good gift" God has given me. They are not getting it but he or she knows better and would esteem you so even to your own shock. 

Therefore, by the prophetic on me, I order you to fall in line with your time and season, with your place in your placement, your person amidst people. Let your paths cross. Find acceptance. Find a long sufferer. Find a bearer with your kind (made you by nature or life). Find it now. Alignment now and not later. Find same who you'll be precious in his or sight. One that your trouble would be kindness to!

You say, "how possible?"

I answer with He said, "He'll set the solitary in families [even at all cost]."

MORNING WINGS DAILY DEVOTIONAL GUIDE - Olusola ADEJUMO

THE RELUCTANCE OF MEN MAY COST US

I Samuel 17:16, KJV

"And the Philistine drew near morning and evening, and presented himself forty days."

We must be discerning. Lack of discernment might hinder us from moving when God moves. Goliath for forty days taunted and tormented the army of the Lord. Does the Lord intend it lasts this long when He knew who He'll use to secure victory for Israel already. There's nothing God wants to do on earth that He doesn't need a body for. That's why partnering with human beings have become a very important thing. That's why yielding as well has become an important thing. Unless you yield, some things might still be fallowed and left undone. 

Israel awaited their ambassador in David for forty days. The challenge went on unopposed while Goliath would come out to shiver them daily with, "are you not servants of Saul and I a Philistine? Choose yourself a man that we may fight." God has appointed a deliverer for Israel and like chess playing, He intends he moves to the battle where the next scene awaits him but a human was failing. Jesse was failing. Jesse didn't discover sending David to the battle to go deliver cheeses to his brothers until after the fortieth day of torment. The problems, challenges etc in your life which you've been praying to God over, does God intends it lasts this long before it's taken away? No! A human might be failing God. God might have spoken to someone to come to your aid financially while disobedience and reluctance is causing delay. There are moments when God comes to people as the first choice while their reluctance makes God choose another vessel for use. Katherine Kuhlman had said she was not the first person God visited with the healing anointing. God went to someone first who was unable to yield before the anointing sought another out to use. It becomes of us today to be sensitive and discerning to what God is doing in the now so that we might always be found in the present with Him. 

The sending of David to the battle field by Jesse was only a disguise by God. God wanted David there and He wouldn't come down from heaven to drag him there. David was a man under authority. God therefore had to nudge and stir a heart to take a step that would benefit Israel and begin to lead David on the road of his journey. If you're slow in discerning, you'll do much harm to what God wanted do. A sinner will destroy much good the Bible says. If God has been witnessing to you to speak with someone and you've been shrugging it off, you may elongate and make more space for such sinner to impregnate, murder, abort another and go on another robbery operation where he'll be caught and later executed. God might have wanted to spare his life but reluctance and unwillingness from you may be the problem. God had to wait for David to be moved before the next scene could be moved. Probably, you're the man God, your country, your family is waiting for to show up. Probably you're he or she God has put a calling on, that without you they can do nothing. May you discover its you, stop living in sin, enter into purpose and find out God's sovereign will for your life. Until cargoes are moved to where they're needed, they can't be put to their uses. Heaven and earth await your manifestation. May this delay ends. May the training God has invested heavily on to train you for the day of manifestation not be wasted. May you put it to work. May you gravitate towards what you're called for. May the challenge that would make you a national hero and reveal you to the community of men draw you successfully to itself. May you be where God is. Backsliding is missing steps with God. May you take a step when God ordains it. May God speak once, may you perceive seven times. May your Jesse pick God's signal that immediate and not let what God intended removed last so long and become inflated into a mountain threatening men.

INCREASING LEARNING: Learning to increase your sea level!

INCREASING LEARNING: adoring the wise and ameliorating the fools

May you become robust in learning. May you increase in learning. May more, some, one etc always be added to what you already have on ground. 

May you not be divided or subtracted from. Rather, I say witness addition and multiplication. I declare, be added to. Increase in learning. Increase your gathering, treasure, find, wealth and resources. No loss or retrogression where you could have profited anywhere and tended forward. You see, God argues not the fact that you already have some quantity with you or in you. What He's saying as His intention is is that you could add to it. Where and what would afford you add to your being a man of robust learning, knowledge or revelation is same that may be the stumbling block of some. 

That place says, "A WISE man will HEAR, and will INCREASE LEARNING; and a man of understanding shall attain unto wise counsels (Prov.1:5)."

That means, "the fool will hear and will subtract (reduce in) learning." You see, you can hear, read or come upon a thing and it ruins you. Yet, it is intended to build you up and make you attain unto wise counsels and mastery. There are people who argue with obvious result and evidences evidential. All those can't increase in learning. They can't facilitate the purpose for which they're being taught. The information they're contacting is not adding a dime or nutrient to them because they disbelieve in it. Many there be who don't esteem their prophet. How could they be healed?

At times, not receiving the communicator or messenger may make you such who reduces in learning instead of increasing in it. Also, it may be because of inner self doubt or lack of clarification/understanding (on your side) which makes it impossible for you to agree, accept and add the wealth of information being offered to you to your library of knowledge or that which you could lay hold on and say, "this is mine. I mined them by obedience and diligence."

Brethren, which are you? He that hears and what he hears does him good by adding to his knowing, understanding and conceptualization or one that hearing brings confusion, doubt, decrease or destruction to? Do you know that you may hear false doctrine and it may make you loose yourself from right doctrine? In there, you decrease in learning. However, if you hear right doctrine and it purges you of falsehood, you can't and shouldn't be said to have decreased in learning. Rather, you'll still have increased because you've learnt what to uphold and what to let go of (which of course is poisonous and not health to you). In there, you're given a sieve.

I've found out by experience uncountable that when I read the materials of others (it's not only Christian write-ups), I do receive further insights and fresh communication either from the Bible verses they share (which may be interpreted differently by them) or their teachings. This is another way by which God fills Christians, teachers and all ministers. God will just quicken a part of what's being said to you. It would suddenly make a new sense to you. It would be novel, all new and sparkling interest in you; ready to be dug and explored. In that manner, having received what was not there before (now by revelation), you increase (in) learning. Increasing learning simply means profiting. It means making more money if you would. Remember the story on the talents, some made additional talents to add to the ones they started with. They're regarded as wise traders in this wise. Any who could increase what he has is wise. Diminishing is sorrow to any it finds. The fool couldn't double or increase what was invested in his care and so lost it to a profitable faithful servant. God has been merciful enough to give all of us a starting point. We're all endowed with gifts but can you make the light of it so shine before men that they'll say and you yourself would concur, "you've profited from it." Look, God's merciful enough sending us prophets and teachers. But, what have we been doing with them? Have we being stoning and killing them by our nonchalant attitude like many predecessors did or we multiply and attain by the instructions of their lips? Only you could say. Please, be your judge. 

Are you seeing how possible it is increasing learning now. That Bible verse if you read in KJV could be confusing because the preposition "in" was not added in the quoted verse. Check it out here (Prov.9:9, 16:21) in comparison in KJV and you'll find it to be same. 

Look, you can increase in learning. When you do, you become wiser because you'll be adding to the heap of wisdom you've learnt from God or acquired in life. May instructions of those under who you sit make your sea level rise. As you take in, may you swell. May famine of knowledge not strike you. May you by learning receive more wisdom, know hows and prosperous instructions on how to live the good life. In simple terms, you can increase in learning. You do when you act on what's being commanded. Doing that would make you see its recompense as benefiting and so rehearse the process. You'll have attained learning by having come to learn it permanently. While I can pray that you'll increase in learning yet it lies with you to add diligence, giving of attention and obedience to increase in learning. Gathering is hard if you don't know. There be many who detests and vomits acquiring. Some presences irritate them. They don't see them as superlative enough to esteem and receive from. Anyway, God will recommend men to you. 

That's why that place says, "the wise will hear...." Who's "the/that wise?" One who obeys whatsoever is said. Didn't the Bible says, "the doer is the blessed." That's the only fellow who increases in learning when he hears (listen and then act it out). I tell you, despite the fact that teachers are teaching, only few are increasing in learning. You know why? Few actors. They cheated without knowing one don't know until he knows (learn) by doing the instructed. You have not learnt until you learn by experience, practise or rehearsal. It's then you'll discover some things they didn't say yourself. The process becomes more widened and enlarged to you because you take time to research it out. It was a step by step work you did before arriving at the answer. That one - the researching or seeking to know therefore becomes flesh. It makes a mark indelible in you that becomes evidence you carry around even if you don't talk it. 

Save your earnings. The world knows that. Save consistently. They'll say they heard but only those who took the pain of doing same would see that indeed it is profitable saving money (by the time they begin to reap the harvest of having a saving). From that experience, they'll take that knowledge further having seen how sweet it is saving money by consistently saving. They'll resolutely commit and resolve to always save (the level they didn't get to at first practise) and from there taste a growth and increment from strength to strength. This is how people add one layer of wisdom to another until they eventually lay wisdom up. This inturn is what they could teach or use to instruct others because they have been  doers themselves - those who bear the marks and cost of doing upon themselves. They have testimonies and they can now share it. 

May I ask, have you been a fool decreasing learning (the percentage committed to him or that should fall to him) or a witty increasing the allocation given or already acquired by him. At this corridor, you're the decider of your fate. Oracle your path and eat from same. May you be wise to listen to others. The wise wouldn't have heard let alone increase in learning if he gave no heed to hear other wise or wiser teachers. But as he does, the tendency of increasing his sea level begins to befall him until you could call him the befallen who could now instruct others to be befell by the same "increasing learning" mantra. I say, "increase learning" because you "can increase learning." Take a step further and become superlative wonder! Arise the sea level!

MORNING WINGS DAILY DEVOTIONAL GUIDE - Olusola ADEJUMO

OPEN YOUR PORTFOLIO!

Read I Sam 17:31-37

I Samuel 17:36 KJV

"36 Thy servant slew both the lion and the bear: and this uncircumcised Philistine shall be as one of them, seeing he hath defied the armies of the living God."

Saul said, "you are not able to go against him because he has been a man of war from his youth." That's David trying to survive his rookie years but a personality innocently is still trying to hinder him from entering professionalism. What could be the problem? They care so much for David and wouldn't want him lose his life like that. That's the reason for the warning. He has been a fighter but who knows you to be one yet you said you'll take him on. At this point, David was necessitated to prove a fact. Did the Bible not say we should have an answer ready for all those who enquire from us (I Peter 3:15)? David pointed out in his discourse. "I have been a shepherd and here are my accomplishments. I have slew both the lion and the bear. I have a background knowledge in fighting. It would be fitting if you allow me execute this project. At least, I am not a novice somehow and I wouldn't be starting from zero." It was this that was heard that settled all to let David have his fight. Immediately, Saul said to David, "go, and the Lord be with you." You must be convincing and persuading. Never be abstract in your persuasion. Present evidences. 

People might think less of you but evidences are always evident. David could have been forever shut up from fighting Goliath if not for the presentation of his former works in that line. Nobody believes you until we see testimonies of the jobs you've delivered on. If you're most especially in the creative world, either you're a graphics designer or a content writer etc, one of the things your employer wants to see before they trust you with their jobs is sample of your previous work. They call it a portfolio. It is a folder of series of works you've delivered on which won you more. David had that. God is speaking to someone. Never leave your place of assignment. Sticking to duties gives you preparation and experience that you have no thinking where it'll be valuable. David never saw Goliath coming. He only had a training in Warring 101. David was a shepherd. That was his job. But in his job description, it involves protecting the sheep. In the process of being a good shepherd, he learnt warring. Yet shepherding seems such a job that contradicts warring. In unseemly places and jobs, God will make your path cross with an experience that would give you entrance into your multimillion job or prepare you a future in your calling or career. Never despise any day of little beginning even if it would mean volunteering to gather valuable experience, building your Curriculum Vitae and portfolio. David started a volunteer. Jesse was not paying him. Even Eliab fought him saying, "with whom did you leave those few sheep" (18). That's to tell you how insignificant the job that prepared him was. The truth is you must prove your worth and there are levels and tasks on which you could build your worth up. The world is looking for a trusted hand, one in which they could commit the Goliath project to. May God make you win it as you bid for it. It took David bidding by explaining what he's capable of before he was let in. Never be reluctant to assuage the doubt of any concerning you. Let no man make mockery of your youth. Wisdom is not always age. Experience is always not adulthood. David had experience that almost all the soldiers there didn't have including Saul. Let your confidence be, "the Lord who delivered me from the paw of the lion and the bear will deliver me from this uncircumcised Philistine because he'll also be like one of them." You see, no new task. One new task would always disguise as an old one. Your chances of succeeding is built up for having attempted similar tasks before. Today, don't shortchange yourself by fleeing from any assignment life or authorities are entrusting you with. That's your Potter's House, those who stay would have a story to tell and a preparation for their future inevitably.

PRAYER: Lord, may I not despise my little beginning and my insignificant achievements. May I overcome by testimonies. Settle me in the place of learning. May I not become critical of the assignment that's my launchpad into my future.
