THE DAY JESUS WAS ON HIS WAY DOWN - Breaking Needs Series 002

Matthew 17:24, 27, KJV

 "24 And when they were come to Capernaum, they that received tribute money came to Peter, and said, Doth not your master pay tribute? 27 Notwithstanding, lest we should offend them, go thou to the sea, and cast an hook, and take up the fish that first cometh up; and when thou hast opened his mouth, thou shalt find a piece of money: that take, and give unto them for me and thee."

I said in yesterday's devotional that a day would come in anyone's life when it seems, "embarassment is imminent. It would look slated and appointed to happen. It would be so challenging that it would be looking the fellow in the eye like this and the fellow also would be looking it in the eye. Yet the fellow might look incapacitated." Such day won't lack in any life's history. A day like that came or let's say almost came upon Jesus. What a day when the master almost be in want! This day, the embarassment he was saved from was what assured me that my bread is actually ready but is safely kept somewhere waiting to be called forth for its purpose. There's no need that'll come upon you that lacks a treasure in God's bank to meet it. 

That day, Jesus was on His way down. He had fallen from the peak He was and was coming down but suddenly there was a bearing up back to the height of perfection. Suddenly, it looked as if this was not the same Jesus that had just escaped an embarassment. I reveal to you that day. 

That day, the revenue collector came to collect tribute of Jesus and then of Peter. Where would they raise the money? This is Jesus at a T-junction of want. He's now desiring a need to be met. The collector requested for money but both Master and protegee had none to offer immediately and instantaneously. While that would have been the end of this ongoing event and would have given avenue to the enemy to blaspheme or gainsay, God turned shame too would glory. Immediately, the Master, Jesus Himself like a man caught up into the initiates of the Ancient told Peter to quickly go on an errand that would save them from this embarassment that's impending. "Pick your fishing tool and go cast a hook." That singular act was their breakthrough. In no time, Peter was back with money saved and collected from a fish's mouth. What a wonder! This is the story of how Jesus escaped embarassment and was saved from the scourging of the tongues from whomsoever it could have come.

Today, I am feeling the anointing heavily on me and I have come with pronouncements from the Father of all goodies. "Be saved from embarassment. Any impending doom and shame, be saved from such. Let God hide you from them all. I pray, escape mockery, the scourging of the tongue and the tearing of your honour. Those of you on your way down already, I declare you won't eventually know shame. You'll be redeemed and restored.

PRAYER: Open my eyes to where my supply is in critical times. I escape all impending embarrassment.

I SHALL NOT WANT - Breaking Needs Series 001

Read John 2:1-10

Psalms 23:1, KJV 

"The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want."

"The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want", the psalmist declares. That verse must be very much made clear to you. What's the interpretation of "I shall not want" as it's written there? Does it mean you'll never get to a juncture or point in time when you'll need a thing? Or what does it actually mean? "I shall not want" as used there means "I shall not perpetually know need until that need is eluded and eventually not met."

We know we're humans and that none on this planet could deny the fact of ever having not being in want even if his needs were later supplied. Being on earth and being humans means you'll one day gaze up and see what you don't have that you'll like to possess and may not have wherewithal for immediately. At that instance, you immediately have need and could be said to be "in want."  "I shall not want" therefore as used there means because I have the Lord as my leader and one who I obey and follow, even if I'm in need or come to desire a thing, I shall not consistently be in that need or desire that thing because that need will be met and that same need therefore halted. It therefore means even though I don't have food at home and I need foodstuffs (being beginning to be in want or being in want already), God will not allow me be in want perpetually until it is not met within a jurisdicted time frame that need ought to be met. That is because He will meet my needs and not allow me come to an unbearable hunger and scorn that's not good for my health and mental state.

I had said in yesterday's devotional that the poor man is not he who doesn't have money safely crested in his account to meet needs at its appearance. It's rather the man who can't have his needs met when they appear. You may not have the wherewithal to meet a need immediately the need knocks but if the need is supplied on the way and you're consequently saved from the deadline slated to meet that need and the embarassment that not meeting it may cause, then you're rich. That's the man that can't know shame because even if his children's fees total five million and his salary and savings isn't up to that, God will make up for him by financing it in a way he himself doesn't preplan or is afore privy to.

Look at me people, God didn't promise us a trouble free life. We've been hearing preachers preach this and it's truth and not false at all. "In this life you'll face many tribulations" is rather the writing upon the wall of any Christian but with that also comes, "be of good cheer for I have conquered the world." "For I have conquered the world" is our salvation and bind of escape. We can count on that.

Did the Bible not say, "on their hands they'll bear you up (back to the height you were falling from) lest you dash your foot against a stone" (Psalm 91:12). You see, a time will come when disgrace would look imminent. It would look as if "today is today, you can't escape this embarassment." That's being on one's way down. But what did God promise? While that's happening; while the creditor has promised and is coming to pick your children to cover your debt, there and then, God will bear you up. If you're not borne up, you'll eventually know disgrace and embarassment but we have known a God who saves from disgrace and embarassment so that we don't actually be in want (in a state of perpetually needing a thing). He's the God that bears us on His hands from any fall that's ongoing so that we will not touch the ground let alone dash our foot on a stone. He's our Interceptor and Deliverer from all defying situations. People, is the Lord your Shepherd? If He is, it means He's the One who solely orders your life. You may have the highest paying job and He may tell you to resign to be reallocated to where He has needs to meet. If He's your Shepherd, you won't suddenly become wise and question Him. You will heed and you shall see the salvation of the Lord henceforth. But many times, more than 80% of Christians only confess "the Lord is my Shepherd..." He is not their Shepherd at all and because He is not, they're knowing need and being in want perpetually. Instead of provision meeting them on the way to settle their needs, eliminate their debts, they are let alone with themselves to fall off from the height of estimation and respect people have set them in their minds. 

I shall not want is only for shepherded Christians. I emphasized this in the earlier "Shepherd Series" teachings I did this year. Today, God wants to meet your needs and meet you on the way to halt any process of disgrace and embarassment but you have to come under Him first of all. Without submission and acceptance of Him as your Shepherd, you may not receive the promptness you so desire when you're beginning to know need or be in want. If you haven't submitted, you'll call God's wisdom of wanting to send you where He sees green pastures foolishness and so stray off from where you could have been provided for. So, you'll come to be in want and be in want perpetually because you have missed your provision by not allowing to be shepherded. I pray, may you receive the humility that pays.

PRAYER: I receive the humility of a sheep to be shepherded. I shall not know want perpetually even if I enter want.

BIBLE IN A YEAR: Ezekiel 37:1-38:23; James 1:19-2:17; Psalm 117:1-2; Proverbs 28:1

MORNING WINGS DAILY DEVOTIONAL GUIDE - Olusola & Oreoluwa ADEJUMO

BOUND BY WORDS AND PUT UNDER NECESSITY!

I Kings 17:4, KJV

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

There's a work that God does. Yes, that the God of all the earth does. It is that of binding with words and putting under compulsion for our sakes. You've read that popular narrative of how the birds fed Elijah but may I call your attention to some unnatural things. 

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

God said to Elijah, "I (the God of all the earth and consequently of all flesh) has commanded (put under compulsion) the ravens to feed you there. That one should choke! 

When a thing is commanded, it immediately loses its own will or choice of action. "Command" is a military term that superimposes itself on a lesser subject. So, when God assured Elijah that He had commanded the ravens to feed him where he'll be going, God in essence was saying, "the ravens have no choice because the one they have was lost when My command went out to them." That is, "whether the ravens like it or not, they must feed you. Whether it suits their nature or not, food must be appropriated for you." And as we all know, it is not in any bird's nature to bring food to any human being. The sight of human beings even scare them away. Yet, the ravens defied all these and their nature to bring food for a man in stringency.

If you're commanded, you stop showing initiative to do only what you're told. Command means you're immediately setup, defaulted or programmed to act only "one way" and not stray to another. So, it became contrary for the ravens not to have carried bread to Elijah. Words were binding on them. Only that you can't see it. There's a burden that has been laid on them and that's to fulfill the command of the God of all flesh. Today, may God command men concerning you. May God put men under necessity and compulsion for you. Whether they want to or not, may they be defaulted to show you favour, give you the job and award you the contract. So much more that they'll ask later on, "but why did we give it to him?"

"Commanded" could also mean "put under oath." When God said I have commanded the ravens to feed you there, we should begin to believe that God interacted with the ravens, delegated a duty to them and solemnly put them under oath to perform it dutifully. God doesn't leave things to chance. If He ever does, somebody's life will be in jeopardy. So, He's always making arrangements and putting things in strict orderliness. The fact that the ravens were put under oath shows in how dutiful and diligent they discharged their duties to the appointed man. They didn't carry bread to another place. Those God will command for your sake know where you are. Later on also, we learnt in details the specifications of the agreement God had entered with the ravens. We were told they brought Elijah bread and meat in the morning and in the evening. Who specified it should be twice per day? God did though not written black and white in the Bible like that! The ravens didn't perform less. They stick to the terms of their agreement and brought him meat in the morning and evening. Once you're promised by God, He performs it all to the latter. 

This same "I have commanded the ravens to feed you there" is the same revelation we have in exactness in Psalms 91:11-12 which says "for he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways. They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone."

One thing would have been inevitable and that's the dashing of foot on the stone but because angels have been commanded to stay "attention" concerning you, such event is forbidden happening to you. So, you can't have a successful accident or know any hurt. Elijah would have known want but the ravens have been commanded also.They've been instructed and they've solemnly vowed not to go against that which God has committed into their custody to do. I found out that the poor man is not he who doesn't have money at hand but he who needs money yet has or receives none at that time of need. That's why I'm praying that whenever you arrive at the gate of Zarephath, God will have commanded people concerning you. Then, you won't have to strive to convince them. They'll just be favourably disposed to you.  Lord, I am begging that you'll put men under necessity for me and our ministry. Men that will always make for us first by showing such first class degree and level of commitment. If not that you had commanded the widow of Zarephath too, would he spend on Elijah first of all? Never! But whenever you bind people with words, they don't do less except to do exceedingly more than you've instructed. 

I Kings 17:9, KJV  

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

You've commanded me to teach and I'm faithfully doing it. I'm opening my mouth and you're filling it, may you stir those who you want to give to us to do theirs and bring their commitments. Ministry is not what a man can do all alone. May you put them under necessity to act and discharge. May your words become fire in their bones until it's acted like teachings are in me until it is taught. May Your hands cut us those who will leave fathers, mothers, siblings, houses and submit to be flung wherever God sees needs and would have them administered. Lord, in the body of Christ, for all your called ministers and those who may be in dire needs, may they not lack those bound with words and put under necessity. Today's word is encouraging any that God is saying, "go" to. If He has sent you somewhere, provision is ahead you. People you don't even know have been put under obligation just for you. What a God!

PRAYER: Bind me with words of commitment for some and bind some with same for me. No refusal.

MORNING WINGS DAILY DEVOTIONAL GUIDE - Olusola & Oreoluwa ADEJUMO

THAT YOU MAY DISCERN THEIR THOUGHTS

Luke 2:34-35, KJV

"34 And Simeon blessed them, and said unto Mary his mother, Behold, this child is set for the fall and rising again of many in Israel; and for a sign which shall be spoken against; 35 (Yea, a sword shall pierce through thy own soul also,) that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed."

If Mary were to be asked the pain of seeing one's child murdered, you'll have witnessed rolls of tears flooding her cheeks once more.  Jesus is set for a sign. A sign is something that's conspicuous and not hidden at all. We do know that during His earthly ministry, He was very much within view of antagonists and those that had their hearts opened to Him. He was both received and rejected as well. But for Mary, Simeon prepared her ahead of the sorrow that'll befall her. This obviously will have to do with the eventual death of Jesus. But before then, what about the sufferings, trials and the so many pain she will witness Him experience. This is nothing but a sword piercing through one's soul. Such experience never causes delight but great torment of heart. And if not for grace and God's sustaining work, Mary could have died sooner after the suffering and crucifixion of our Lord Jesus Christ. But she was braced up by the so many hopes in us even till today. When Jesus said, "woman, behold thy son (in John the beloved)", He was trying to cushion the effect of all she has experienced by making provision for her onward by handing her over. Jesus obviously must have had much compassion on her motherhood before being prompted to say that. (John 19:25-27).

I am sent to someone today and I know. God wants me tell you there are thoughts you'll never discern until an occasion warrantees their being spoken or acted. Thoughts are of the mind. They're always hidden and will forever remain low in us unless they're verbalized or acted. Thoughts are things or tangibles we know but I don't have insight into your thoughts except by speech or action. When Simeon told Mary that a sword would pierce her so that the thoughts of many people's hearts may be revealed, what do you think? Think of a mother who has just lost her child - a child that's the excellence of glory, one that's known for mighty and great deeds. What are the things the crowd would begin to say as they join the mocking or consolation team? You'll hear some say, "I knew this would happen. That boy is full of pride. He jumps up ten thousand times a day." Another had say, "hmmm, we'll miss all his great acts. He has been much help to us while around." Though the usage of "that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed" carries more negative connotation than positive, yet we do know that it's both that that singular line expressed. Only that, the revealing of the negatives many have harboured for Jesus or Mary would show who indeed had or not believed in Christ being the Saviour of the world. For as many who would decry Him, such are not of us even if they went out from us. 

Whenever God wants to expose men to you or enlighten you about those you're surrounded with, He may cause an occasion not so good or even good to happen so that people might utter their thoughts or act it out. It is this that gives you ample opportunity to see what the inside of people contain all this while. Jeremiah 17:9 says, "the heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?" We begin to know it when such thoughts are revealed. Today, purify yourself and be indeed of the household of faith. Mourn with those who mourn and rejoice with those who rejoice. If you're piped to, dance and if you're wailed at, sorrow. There's an expected and specific act that fits the occasion; don't do contrarily. I pray that you'll first purify yourself so that your thoughts won't subtly betray you. You may be acting kindly when you're actually full of bitterness on your inside. If you aren't careful, because of being overwhelmed inside, you won't know when you'll leash out your thoughts. A good man out of his good treasure brings forth good things and a bad man evil things. Who are you?

PRAYER: Lord, purify me and make my thoughts whole. May I be on the side of the godly and good always.

SALVATION EVEN ON THE WAY - Closing Remark On The Large Place Series - 030

Psalms 91:11-12, KJV

"11 For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways. 12 They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone."

There's a work that God does and I like Him for that. There won't be any of us who won't face valley moment. We will all have our share of temptation, scarcity and days of adversity. However, in the midst of it all, salvation is promised us. Let Satan go to work inorder to do his worst, God is saying, "you won't touch the ground." He's saying, "you'll always fall into my hands." That place read, "on their hands they'll bear you up, lest you dash you foot against a stone." What's inevitable without prompt interruption? The dashing of foot against a stone. Do you know what that is? It means the opposite of God's desire finding fulfilment in one's life. Literally, "dashing one's foot against a stone" means hurting one's foot or getting hurt." God doesn't promise us hurt or injury but rather health and security. So, we know that God's plan covers our total welfare. He wants us prosper in health as our soul prospers (III John 1:2).

If I refer to the passage where Satan dared Jesus to jump while quoting, "on their hands they'll bear you up lest you dash your foot against a stone", you'll come to understand that that quotation means "salvation will always meet you on the way." If Jesus had jumped, what Satan was lying about in order to risk Jesus' life though a reality in our lives is that before Jesus touches the ground, before he falls and crashes, the angels - God's messengers will appear and raise him back to the height from where he had fell. So, it means, He'll never be displaced from the height. While that's a reality in our daily situation, Jesus didn't take a jump because that'll be Satan controlling Him. Satan didn't have a welfare thought for Him here. He only wanted to stir Him to do his own bidding one way or the other and Jesus proved not to be submitted to him anyway.

Today, God wants to keep you retained on the heights. Nothing will be able to bring you down. If you ever find yourself coming down, the ministry of God's divine lmessengers will return and restore you back to your height. You have been brought to Rehoboth, to rest, to the land, to the roomy place and to the heights. Anything that will displace and bring you down shall not ultimately succeed because God is promising you "on the way salvation." Let Satan do his best. Let him tempt you to take a jump down your height by infilling you with lusts that lead to sin. The sure word is this, before the completion of this disgraceful process, God will interject, intervene and cross him. Satan's intention won't even find fulfilment. "On their hands they'll bear you up lest you dash you foot against a stone." You won't know defeat. Having been settled on the heights, that'll be your home forever. Last in your roomy place and tarry on your heights therefore!

PRAYER: I last in my roomy place; I tarry on the heights.

A TABLE BEFORE YOU AT YOUR LARGE PLACE - Large Place Series 029

Read Psalms 23

Psalms 23:5, KJV

"Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over."

A large place is a place where the table has been set and everything has been prepared for you. When you're at the large place: your large place, you're very much at the centre of God's will. Because of this, heaven will ensure that you're taken care of and that all things respond to you. At the large place, thought is always afore taken for you and so you'll always meet preparation on ground. [I'm seeing an image. It's the image of many gifts in their varieties. Receive gifts today: spiritual and physical].

That place says, "thou prepares a table before me..." Who does that? God! It is He who prepares or set a table before the psalmist. For what purpose or purposes are tables set? For feasting! When a table is set, you have the remembrance of food, dinning and winning. When a table is set, you have the remembrance of  a party or the attending to some guests. A set table shows honour and acceptance into the family hood. That's what the psalmist says the Lord does for him. God solitarily uses His power to set a table before him where it should not be. God has rather created a room for him. Despite the contest, rivalry, attacks and accusations, this unconcerned God still goes ahead to place such table right before his enemies. It is God who weeds round you to prepare a place for you. Where He wants you stay is where you'll stay. No one can unfasten you from where God wants you situated. What the Lord did for the Psalmist was not hidden at all. Even the heathen hears of it. The table has been set to the vexing of the enemies of this God's elect. Even if they vex for a thousand years, they can't break or remove this table because it's the Lord who has set it and He has found no other place to situate it but right before the psalmist's enemies' faces. God wanted to prove a point - that despite all, are you seeing him feasting? Are you seeing him taking life? Are you seeing him being daily clothed with purple and feeding sumptuously? You'd better agree with him or else...!

"Thou prepares a table before me in the presence of those who don't like or accept my person!" Why would he do this if not that He wanted to intentionally bring them to acknowledgement of his son whom he has set a table before? God can trek miles to ensure that your enemy, even your stubborn enemy is proved unto until he submits. You and your enemy aren't equals. God is at your own right hand side. Instead of the expected ridicule, however, it is a table of varieties that he's setting before you. When that place says, "thou prepares a table before me...", I'll like you know it's a table of all expense paid commodities. At your large place, you rarely pay for things. Doors will so open that people will be the ones taking thought for you and setting things in motion for you before arrival. All they'll do you is to beckon on you to come and take your seat and dine because the table has been set. "Thou prepares a table before me" means literally it was not the psalmist who did himself that honour of finding food, cooking it and serving it. If you set table for someone, he's not involved in doing that. You treat him or her specially by just telling him to come and have his feast. So, you'll see such pull a seat and kingly sit to feast. So, the preparation of a table comes at a cost but the cost has been covered by the Lord. I'm seeing someone go on an all expense paid trip soonest. I'm seeing somebody being bought and brought shoes. They'll only need you to fix in your foot as to assert your size. It's fitting you. All expense paid because a table has been prepared before you which you know nothing about its preparation. A table to take life from. A table of abundance. A table of "it has no end." A table of surprise where A voice will say, "come and see what we prepare and hide for you." A table of it forever springs. This is just one of the many manifestations of Rehoboth, the Large Place or the Heights which you'll get to. God will ensure that room is made for you even in the presence of your enemies. Your enemies have no choice than to have themselves spaced for the table God wants to erect before them. Who am I sent to? Today, God will do you a favour that'll be conspicuous. It won't be hidden. If a table was set for the Psalmist in the presence of his enemies, it means everybody sees it. What God will do you shall be seen, spread and recounted. I say, "receive a table, space, room even where it is hard to have it. Even in that foreign land, despite the racial discrimination, receive a table, a space and a room."

PRAYER: Lord, give me a table, room and space where it's hard to have it. Make men, even my enemies be at peace with me. I receive the prepared table, package and gift. All expense paid is my testimony.

WHY YOU CAN NOW ARISE AND SHINE EFFORTLESSLY - Large Place Series 028

Isaiah 60:1, KJV

"Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee."

That place read, "arise, shine..." Please, don't be bored that we're reading and repeating Biblical quotation. It pays and in its emphasis we see light. That verse is an admonishment and you can call it a firm command or instruction also. Why would a saying be coming at this time to you to, "arise and shine?" We should probe that and I thank God the answer is hidden in that same verse as well. It says, "for your light has come." Why you must "arise and shine" is because of an already settled occurrence and that's because "your light has come." What we've all been waiting for is that your light will come because that's what privileges and capacitate you to "arise and shine."

What's photosynthesis? The process by which green plants and some other organisms use sunlight to synthesize nutrients from carbon dioxide and water. Now, if I ask you, "how does green plants manufacture their food, you'll say "they do in the presence of sunlight and other mentioned ingredients." Meaning "green plants" wouldn't have been able to take life if sunlight was not first available and other ingredients. So, when that place says, "arise, shine...", it isn't in vacuum but in the presence and availability of "your light which has come." If "your light has not come" first of all, if you arise, it would be a futile arising. The reason is simple. No one would take notice of you. It's given unto no man to set himself on the heights but it's of God to call him to this large place. If you want, yell or buy people over, yet all men will still treat you unkindly and you'll go unnoticed because the vital ingredient that introduces a man and makes him visible and transparent to men hasn't first of all come into your space and life. It has to be "arise, shine because your light (opportune time, visibility, enablement, introduction) has come. In the absence of that, you can't rise. 

Stretch your hand forward. I declare, "let your light come so that you may be able to manufacture your food in the presence of "sunlight while using water and carbon dioxide." If your light doesn't come, you can't arise and shine. If you attempt it, you'll rise to fall but when it does come, you shine and shine so well that you're seen. You shine effortlessly because you've been granted an equipping and opportune time from the Lord. And that will all be because the platform to shine has been first set for your rising. "Your light must first come and the glory of God dawned on you" before you or I could ever think of getting up to manifest. It must be a calling or signalling unto to manifest because those divine inputs and signs have first shown up. This light of yours is also not yours to originate though attributed to your ownership. It's attributed to your ownership after God might have given you and same now causes your rising. It is actually the Lord's and should be seen in association with "the glory of the Lord" which shall also, "rise upon you." "Your light" is with God and He'll release it for your grand rising. Let me ask you a question. If every place is dark and sudden flashlight - stage lights focuses on you only, will you be seen by others all around or not? That's what happens when the glory of the Lord rises upon you. You become notable. What has made you so is something of the Lord that's bringing forth supernatural recognition and acceptance. So, you can't but be acknowledged. If men have been withholding it, it is till then when your light hasn't come and God's glory hasn't risen on you. Also, by the time your light comes and the glory of God dawns on you, ensure you do not get in trouble with God. Why? Men would begin to give you the praises of God and eulogize you as God yet you must be discerning enough to give unto Him what's due Him. If you're given any material thing, it's yours except the Spirit requests you to administer it anyway He'll desire but any word of "well-done, you're powerful daddy, what a man of God and other commendation" should be reallocated to God. Send it to the sender of all blessings and the giver of the glory you're using to manifest on earth. If not for His shining on you, you wouldn't have risen to manifest but for the fact that He says, "it's time enough to bring you to limelight and the large place" and so declares "for your light has come and the glory of God has risen upon you."

PRAYER: I enter into my opportune time. I have light and God's glory for a grand rising. My green plant is manufacturing its food in the presence of sunlight while using other ingredients. I leverage on God's glory.
