CLEFTED IN THE ROCKS - Breaking Needs Series 006

Read Exodus 33:18-23

Exodus 33:22-23, KJV

"22 And it shall come to pass, while my glory passeth by, that I will put thee in a clift of the rock, and will cover thee with my hand while I pass by 23 And I will take away mine hand, and thou shalt see my back parts: but my face shall not be seen."

God said to me, "apart from the bearing (intervening) work that I do to save your feet from being dashed on a stone, there's another and that one is called "clefting." Who was clefted in the rocks in the Bible? Think quickly and think of Moses. Moses was clefted. Why was Moses clefted? He requested to see God's glory. That's how we must desire knowing more of God until we're totally united with Him and lost in Him. God however replied that no man will see him and yet live. To help Moses to fulfill his desire which is righteous and yet care for Him, God told Him, he'll be clefted so that when He passes, Moses will be privileged seeing His back only. And so, when Jehovah passed, Moses was hidden in the rock and clefted. Or else, the contact with God face to face could have swallowed him up. God therefore used that clefting to hide and keep him safe from injury. 

God made it known to me, this way is how I'll save some from disgrace. It's not by bearing up (intervening or interrupting to stop an ongoing process of disgrace) but by clefting, hiding or keeping secured from an impending doom (by not letting them take a step of doom at all). And now, I'm receiving an enlightening on a verse that very much applies. This place says, "the prudent foresees the evil and hide himself but the simple passes on and are punished (Prov. 22:3).

What is consequent if you pass on? You suffer! That's what that place calls "punishment." It may come in any form depending on which rule or law you're breaking and in what field or aspect of life it's being broken. But what did the Bible proffer as the remedy to not being punished? It's foreseeing the consequences of taking a likely step and then refraining from it. This is where divine revelation will be granted you so that you'll see what others do not see and by same be refrained. That "refraining from it" is what is called "clefting, being clefted or hidden." By hiding yourself, that thing will still occur but it can't beat you because you have taken caution by taking shelter. It will just pass you by. Your shelter is that you do not go ahead to strike the iron others are striking. It's that you do not go ahead to invest in the same market others are investing into. You saw that the time is not ripe and so retrace your steps back and so you are saved. 

Today, lay your hand on your head. "Receive an impartation of wisdom. When Moses laid hands on Joshua, the latter received his wisdom. Manifest special understanding of time and seasons to know when, where and what. Have cause to see beyond what appears. See dangers as dangers even if they're masked. May you always be clefted and hidden from dangers that could and should be avoided. May you not pass on (take same steps like the simple) and be punished like them. I rid you of all simplicity (foolishness) and have you filled with financial wisdom from above. Any step or decision in business or personal economy etc that you'll take that'll consequent in your being punished won't be allowed you by the Spirit. May the Spirit of God rather strive with you until you let go of what you've planned doing. This way, you'll be clefted: having taken caution and refrained from going ahead.

PRAYER: Lord, cleft me from every financial difficulty. Give me wisdom to hide and not be punished. I foresee the danger.

WHEN TRUSTING GOD IS EASIER - Breaking Needs Series 005

Genesis 22:6-8, KJV

"6 And Abraham took the wood of the burnt offering, and laid it upon Isaac his son; and he took the fire in his hand, and a knife; and they went both of them together. 7 And Isaac spake unto Abraham his father, and said, My father: and he said, Here am I, my son. And he said, Behold the fire and the wood: but where is the lamb for a burnt offering? 8 And Abraham said, My son, God will provide himself a lamb for a burnt offering: so they went both of them together."

There's a time when trusting God is bread and butter. You yet don't break a sweat. It's the time when if asked by your spouse, children, siblings, associate pastors etc how a need would be met, your defaulted reply would be, "God will provide." Anyone could mistaken you to be in faith at this time but they wouldn't know you're maintaining positive confession because your need has not yet reached its climax of desperation. 

In the past devotional, I made mention of something troubling known as the peak or mount of need. It's when a man has no wherewithal and his chances of survival have been leaned down to nothing. So, it's either he looks up to heaven or he forgets and let slip. Abraham once got to the mount of need on the mount of the Lord but before then, let me take you by the hands and lead you into the court room of how Abraham began to trust God and how trusting God to meet his needs was easier at first.

If you're trusting for a need to be met and the need is still in a long distance before you, it is easier maintaining faith or being in faith because that need is still a year time to come. Then, you'll be full of many soothing comforting words. You'll still believe and be strong at heart that "God is the God of all flesh and that nothing is too difficult for Him." Ok, let's see. But, confessions like this should not be confidently trusted because they've not being tested. God will like to prove your faith in Him by making you near your need and your need not nearing you. If you read today's passage, Isaac asked the dad - Abraham where the ram was or would come from. Abraham didn't have to think twice before he said, "the Lord would provide." He could say that for so many reasons. One of which is that they're still far from Moriah where the sacrifice will take place. So, Abraham still has some respite that God can still show up. Though some loss is at sight yet Abraham is not yet feeling it deeply because the knife is not yet in his hand nor at the throat of Isaac. There's still respite and a hope that God won't disappoint Himself and him too. At this point in any brother's or sister's life, it's easier trusting God. It's easier confessing the scriptures and making declarations but if you're two days, a day or some hours to the closure of an application you have to pay and apply for and you're yet in faith and confession of the Scriptures and all you've been doing when closing date has not drawn near, "God will endorse you to be a true seeker and there's no true seeker who goes off empty handed." But do you know what rather happens? As people draw near and near the slated time to get a thing accomplished and same is unaccomplished, fear steps into their lives because they haven't gotten the wherewithal to meet that need. In the nearest distance, they're seeing disgrace and being left behind already. These altogether created more fears which lead to doubt in them. So, they outrightly stop believing to rather run helter-skelter to any place or person who could meet their needs in their estimation. They'll begin to exercise the opposite of faith or positive confession. They'll therefore undo all they've done for days if not years. At the time of their accusation of God that He's not listening is when they've really reached the mount or peak of their need. That's when things are desperate! When you haven't reached it, you may have peace and believe the earth is under your feet but as the day draws near and your need is yet to be met, one bolt of fear stronger than the East wind will first jolt you to your senses. You've been in faith but now you'll be woken to your senses to be sensed ruled. You'll suddenly have awareness of time and at that time, you may cast off restraint and go any length to seek help from where God does not sanction or where you wouldn't have looked twice if recommended to you during your days of buoyancy. At this period (peak of need), people backslide for short in the process of wanting to meet needs. 

I pray that angels will rather bear you up. The Bible says, "you won't be tempted more than you can bear." I pray that with your temptation shall come a way of escape so that you may always escape every day and every time. I declare, you won't disappoint God or let go when your breakthrough is just stone throw away. May it never never be recorded that you're of those who shrink back. Never. Never I say! Your salvation is around the corner. If you're trusting God for provision, divine health or whatsoever, keep being in faith and in persistence on the mount of need (when situations might have reached their peak and pressure is pressurizing). God will show up. This is what surprises us and makes us call God the miraculous God. This is what will make you call Him your Salvation. Until you reach the mount or peak of need, anything you receive of Him seems to have been delivered to you by your swiftness, prayer abilities or righteousness. Then, you may share the glory with God. May God train you as children and take you through all the processes that make a son so that you'll be lacking in nothing. 

PRAYER: Lord, may I not attribute salvation at any point to myself. Train me in all the processes of sonship. Help me overcome my hour of temptation and remain in faith and with You. I shall not shrink back.

ON THE MOUNT OF NEED; THERE SHALL BE PROVISION - Breaking Needs Series 004

Read Genesis 22:1-14

Genesis 22:8, KJV

"8 And Abraham said, My son, God will provide himself a lamb for a burnt offering: so they went both of them together."

You see, I have known practically and by experience that there's a "mount of need." Mind you, I'm not speaking of the "mount of the Lord." Don't mix it at all. What's the mount of need? The mount of need is the climax of being in want. That's when desiring a particular thing is hot and is the hottest. I told Minister Adekunle Folarin one day that the time I exercised my faith the most was when I needed to pay my school fees on campus and had no hope. As a matter of fact, I was almost becoming a drop out until the Lord intervened to stop that ongoing orchestrated process of Satan. At that time, I had no one to bank on but God and faith. It was while I was exercising faith, God rose hope of being financed through scholarship for me from a particular quarters I later learnt of. People of God, there's a mount, climax, pinnacle or peak of need. It is when you either focus on God or you remain hopeless and eventually disgraced. You know it's wisdom to know where to turn to if all you know to work aren't working. So, I turned to faith. I began to intentionally and specifically listen to messages of faith and confess scriptures that only had to do with provision. I did for days until somebody told me to submit my transcript and ID Card. That's how I paid school fees without lobbying or asking any person for help. My matter was talked about coincidentally at a gathering and from there, it was picked up by this good Samaritan. But I wouldn't forget the labour that went into being noticed though I never promoted or lobbied for anything physically. That's why today, I say, "be noticed for divine help." It may be that you'll have to be spoken of lowly for you to be picked up and remembered. It doesn't matter whether you're described with your problems. What matters is that God uses those people's mouths to sell you to he or those who have been capacitated to meet your needs. 

At the mount of need, a man gets where his life depends on getting that need met. There's no going back. If going back should happen, it would mean the loss of three years of tertiary education at my dropping out. I thank God that while my need reached its peak, God came through for me. And from experience, the greatest exercise of faith don't come when we have nothing to pull faith with but rather when we look round and see our weaknesses and that we have been deserted by all and so forced or put under necessity to exercise faith in the face of impossibilities. That's when the Lord will step in to pick us up. It is that which makes the Bible portion like this below to find expression and fulfilment. 

Psalms 27:10, KJV

"10 When my father and my mother forsake me, then the LORD will take me up."

Your father and your mother there are the closest help you can ever get in reality. They're the most compassionate people you could ever have. Even if those ones who are naturally committed that way to you get incapacitated, at that height, mount, climax and peak of need where the deep of faith is calling to the deep of what you need in hot desire, your need can't but be met. This is the kind of situation God will allow some in to show His glory so that they might believe Him as the Jehovah Jireh. 

Today, I pray that God will create a situation for you to test, grow and mature your faith. Faith is like a muscle. Body builders in the physical have it more. As we exercise, we become immortals of faith and believe, "all things are possible" and that "on the mount of need", God shall break forth like a flood (Baelperazim - II Samuel 5:20) to meet our needs. Receive that!

PRAYER: I exercise my faith for needs and superfluous needs in my life.  I'm aided on the mount of need.

HALTING YOUR CREDITORS - Breaking Needs Series 003

II Kings 4:1, 7, KJV

"1 Now there cried a certain woman of the wives of the sons of the prophets unto Elisha, saying, Thy servant my husband is dead; and thou knowest that thy servant did fear the LORD: and the creditor is come to take unto him my two sons to be bondmen. 7 Then she came and told the man of God. And he said, Go, sell the oil, and pay thy debt, and live thou and thy children of the rest."

Did I not declare by the mouth of the Lord yesterday that you shall not know need? That prayer means, "you may arrive at the juncture of need - a time when you desperately need a thing to be met; however, you won't continue being needy until you're disgraced because you couldn't meet the same need. Rather, you'll meet those needs while the opportune time to meet them still tarries and has not expired. 

Embarassment is not good and may God save you from it daily. A woman whose husband we all know to have to do with Elisha, prophet of the living God sought the man of God because of an imminent disgrace and danger. Her two sons are to be taken in by the creditor because of debt. The dead has died and here she is trying to survive all alone. She obviously lacks the help and support of a partner. She's a widow indeed. Looking at this strait, this woman ran without shame and opened up what was eaten her. Her husband has died, will she also lose her two sons and not see them again? Never!

Immediately, Elisha recommends to her what to do as to be borne up and not dash her foot on a stone. She did and we were told later that she paid off her debt and lived on the rest. Eeeee, I'm afraid at what would have happened which wouldn't have been nice if not for the intervention of God. If not for the timely intervention of God, this woman would not have only lost her husband but her sons as well. But there's an interrupter of all ongoing processes that are running that could put you in trouble. I pray that process won't land or end before God intervenes in your matter. This woman halted her creditor by that miracle, you will halt yours by God's help. At that height of need, when it seems, "Kai, hope I've not been left alone?", that's when God will step into your boat and haul into it a miracle that will pay you what labour all night through couldn't give you. Ooooh, I declare, let all ongoing disgraceful processes be interrupted. May they not trespass where they are now. From where they are now, let them be reversed to normalcy. So, I declare and have it decreed.

PRAYER: Divine interrupter of all ongoing disgraceful processes, bear me up. Don't let my feet get dashed on a stone.

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.

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.
