WE SEE NOT OUR SIGNS! - My Sign Series 001

Psalms 74:9, KJV

"We see not our signs: there is no more any prophet: neither is there among us any that knoweth how long".

There are those who are not seeing their signs again. They once saw, experienced and related with these signs but somehow it has vanished to become a thing of the past. 

May God save you from the confession that, "I see not my signs again". May you see your signs and may it rush at you and be common in occurrence like water. May you experience God, His vision and manifestations once again. May vision not be forever withheld in your life. May your menstrual flow that you've even for long missed be seen now. Anything that would be to you or is to you a restorer of your years or youth which you're currently missing, I command its restoration. Let there be a reoccurrence of those age long, good old days experiences. May your well of salvation fill up once more. May you with joy draw water from it. May you be readied. May you be at alert. May you become vigilant, active and aware like before. God is working on your spirit now! May you possess vibrancy and activeness like before. Today, all your signs that have disappeared begin to appear now. You begin to see what has gone missing. They're visible now like stars in the dark starry night. Your signs will shine forth. It will show forth. It will appear. So shall it be.

When Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea, since Jesus was a joy of the whole world and not of Israel or the Jews alone, God became obligated to make even men in far away East part of the joy and celebration of His birth. A great king has been born. They saw His star and being of understanding, they came to Jerusalem. It was this star that appeared to them while in their own land that put them on their journey. The initiative for the journey came because they saw a miraculous sign in the sky. They didn't launch out on their own. They were rather put on that journey. 

On getting to Jerusalem however, the sign they saw was no longer to be found again anywhere. So, they were confused and lost for awhile. To keep going towards their target, they had to make enquiry around as to where the King of the Jews was born. That's the only detail they have at hand. 

Matthew 2:2, KJV

"Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him".

People around must have taken them to Herod's palace because that's the best place strangers and those with such quests should report to. Herod enquires of the chief priests and scribes and the response is, "in Bethlehem of Judea". While Herod has an ulterior motive yet they were put on their way. As they check out of the palace like this, God who sees their hearts and sees how much they're questing after Jesus appears the star to them again. The Bible records that when they saw the star, they rejoiced greatly and it led them non stop until they got to the house. As a matter of fact, the star went to stay on top of that house baby Jesus was born saying, "herein is where your find is".

Matthew 2:9-10, KJV

"9 When they had heard the king, they departed; and, lo, the star, which they saw in the east, went before them, till it came and stood over where the young child was. 10 When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy".

Today, you also will find your find and see your lost signs again. All the former things that you once experienced and got blessed by but which have been cut off or now tarries shall begin to rush at you again. These wise men saw the star again. I could envisage how their looks were. When they saw it, the Bible says, "they rejoiced greatly". Why won't they rejoice greatly since that's what they've long missed? It once put them on their journey but now it's been awhile they saw it. But at the point of need, it shines forth again. How happy that sister would be to see her sign again - of getting pregnant again. It has once happened to you and it will happen again. How happy that sister will be to see her long ceased menstration begin to flow again. How happy that brother will be hearing that missed and lovely voice of God again. Today, you shall see your signs again. It shall come floating on the water. The Bible says, "and the Spirit of God hovers on the water" (Gen.1:2). Whatsoever you've long seen which once gave you joy but which is not again is coming back and to stay today. It is today not tomorrow. It is now not later. I declare, see your signs again. Let angels begin to make visitation to your room again. Let the windows of heaven be opened and let the miraculous in provision and providence begin to happen to you again. Wherever goodness and mercy have been on vacation in your life, I say receive their visitation again today. See your signs and by them be prospered.

PRAYER: Lord, I see my signs again. The miraculous shall not cease and be on hold in my life.

BIBLE IN A YEAR: Isaiah 54:1-57:14; Ephesians 6:1-24; Psalm 70:1-5; Proverbs 24:8

CARRY ME DEY GO WHERE BETTER DEY AND GREEN IS LOCATED!

CARRY ME DEY GO WHERE BETTER DEY AND GREEN IS LOCATED!

Your prayer, my prayer should be this song:

"My God, carry me dey go /2x

Anywhere better dey

Carry me dey go /2x".

That should be our song as it concerns the will of God for our lives. You should seek to do only one thing - God's will and pleasure. In doing that and seeing that His will solely is executed in your life, one major thing that you must do is to acknowledge the Lordship of Jesus Christ over you. Once you do, it'll bring surrenderness so much more that your song will become that song above. 

You'll lose your own will and will pray Him to carry you on to where He sees and knows best. And I assure you that God sees best and knows best and if you'll give Him this right in your life, He'll lead you to a place you couldn't have discovered on your own. He fetches Paul Macedonia where things would happen for him (Acts 16). 

God told Elijah in I Kings 17:3-4, "3 get thee hence, and turn thee eastward, and hide thyself by the brook Cherith, that is before Jordan. 4 And it shall be, that thou shalt drink of the brook; and I have commanded the ravens to feed thee there". You see, the Lord knows where better dey. He knows where it is located and He knows where things are happening.

Only the Lord knows your land and I tell you if you'll enquire of Him or let Him guide or lead you there, you'll discover the goodies that are there and praise Him in turn as He that has thoughts of good and welfare for you. 

Surrender! Just surrender! Let Him have a free hand of operation in your life. Let your fears assuage! Let Him fling, throw, sweep and send you to your land of operation. That land can't but be discovered to be flowing with milk and honey. You'll find better foods that you didn't ate in Egypt there. Your rest is scheduled for that land. That land will have and fulfill all your desires. It will give bread to your eater and seed to your sower. 

Psalm 23 is one of the powerful writings of the Bible. No wonder, it's that popular. Why is it popular? Because it encapsulates and encodes the leading responsibility of God that can become the inheritance or experience of any believer. It talks about the duty of God as a watching, caring and responsible shepherd over His flock. Read and chew all here and we shall see some things as the Lord will instruct. 

Psalms 23:1-6, KJV

"1 The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. 2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. 3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. 4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. 5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. 6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever".

It says, "the Lord is my Shepherd..." How many of you will identify God as that in your life? Do you know what a shepherd does for His sheep? He leads them first of all. It is this leading to where there's pasture that doesn't make them to be in want. Or else, they'll go hungry, suffer and die off. But God's leading which knows where better dey, where the field is green, where Rehoboth is and where fruitfulness will abound and where you'll be given ample room to discharge all the burdens of your heart is what solves that conundrum or economic tightness that any not led can find himself in. Only God knows that. It is in His mind and you can find it out or you pray and say, "I have no opinion of myself. You're the shepherd. You know the green field and where the gold mine is. Guide me there". 

Then, you'll be like a coconut on the sea that the water carries from one destination to another until it is washed on the shore where it can be planted, take root and germinate. But that wouldn't have happened if that coconut refuses to swim with the waves. Are you ready for the journey of destiny? It wants to kick-start now. 

Today, say, "my God, carry me on to where green is". Let me see those better days and plans!

Olusola ADEJUMO,

M'Wings.

ANSWER TO THOSE SEEKING TO KNOW HOW THESE THINGS SHALL BE

Luke 1:35, KJV

"35 And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God".

I heard that! God is here and He wants to give you answers to your enquiries. There are those with receivings or one inspiration of what they must do or become but who are in doubt of how such mighty communication will come to pass. They've had dreams of great future which tells them the thoughts of peace and of welfare God has towards them. They have information at hand like Mary that originates straight from the mind of God to them. However, it seems too incredulous to believe. Today, the Lord is putting a question in my mouth to ask you. It is, "why should it be thought a thing incredible with you, that God should raise the dead?" (Acts  26:8, KJV). 

It means why should you think it unachievable, overwhelming and impossible that God does what He has announced to you He'll do? That's humans for you. That's how we think. Once we receive exceeding great and precious promises that our mind can't fathom or describe step by step on how it'll be fulfilled, we immediately think it incredible (too big to be true).

One time, God sent an errand to a virgin lady telling her an incredible thing - that she'll get pregnant without having had intimacy with any man. I don't think you'd believe if God had told you those ear defening things. That angel said, "and, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS" (Luke 1:31, KJV).

Her question immediately was, "how shall this be, seeing I know not a man?" (Luke 1:34, KJV).

The answer was, "the Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God" (Luke 1:35, KJV). 

For as many who have been told incredulous things, are you seeing your answer in the response given to Mary here? Who will overshadow her? The power of the Highest! It means when God promises or gives you anything to do, it's not by your power it shall be done but by His enablement or ability. This is my seventh year of unrepentantly writing the devotional. Nothing of me could have continued till hitherto if not that the power of the Most High overshadowed me. To overshadow means to take over, cover totally from head to toe like a garment, possess and overwhelm by a power or ability or not left alone to oneself again! Anyone who the power of the Most High doesn't overshadow can't walk the distance let alone go a mile. They'll faint, become weary and fall dead at the carrying of a step like an overripe fruit. It is the energia of God however that sustains us. 

Today, let this be your consolation even if you don't know how God will meet the needs of sponsoring or fulfilling your dreams, aspirations, vision or those reoccurring desires. Has He said it, will He not do it? That's the Lord! For every assignment, calling and ordainment, He arranges equipping with it. You can't be  stranded therefore. Though I can explain how God is using and aiding me to do what I'm doing in ministry but everything is solely crested on one truth, "that the power of the Most High has overshadowed or overhauled me". It is this that's making me or any anointed you know do what we couldn't have done on ordinary days. It's that same energia or dunamis (power) that helped Mary to take in supernaturally without knowing or needing a man. That's what we'll call an impossibility! What in human parlance can't happen and is susceptible to debates when it does. However, we (the Christians) understand by faith (Heb.11:3). However, you should note that once ability is supplied, all weaknesses, inabilities, puzzles and impossiblities immediately become possibilities. That's why you can suddenly know a man to be doing what his natural strength couldn't have done on ordinary days if he were himself and not having been overshadowed. When he does however, that'll be because of the impartation of power on him. The Holy Ghost has now come to the scene to aid and carry him. How does a man heal the sick, cleanse the leper, raise the dead and do all incredibles if not that he has first been overshadowed and the power of the Highest is with him? Or what man do you know who can heal the sick in his own might except God aids him first of all? So, all of you with receivings of difficult things to achieve or do in life, hear the Lord now, "the Holy Ghost shall come upon you and the power of the Highest shall overshadow you". Once it does, you'll become possessed and spirit ruled or governed by that power until you have discharged that receiving communicated to you by the Lord. And that'll be because the power of the Most High has overshadowed you.

CONFESSION/PRAYER: Lord, I'm not thinking it incredible that my dreams are impossible. I've seen that with the Holy Ghost, nothing shall be impossible. You're the supplier of my equipping. 

BIBLE IN A YEAR: Isaiah 51:1-53:12; Ephesians 5:1-33; Psalm 69:19-36; Proverbs 24:7

YOUR JOSEPH SHALL HAVE DREAMS 

Genesis 37:5, 9, KJV

"5 And Joseph dreamed a dream, and he told it his brethren: and they hated him yet the more. 9 And he dreamed yet another dream, and told it his brethren, and said, Behold, I have dreamed a dream more; and, behold, the sun and the moon and the eleven stars made obeisance to me.

Brethren, the Lord is saying I should announce to you that your Joseph shall have dreams. Brethren, you must know that it's not everybody that has dreams. But you, your Joseph shall have dreams. Dreams are divinely granted of God. They're only directed towards those God has earmarked so that they might have the consciousness of His plan for them. While Joseph was having dreams of what the Lord would one day do, other children of his father were not having anything. They were rather alone. No divine communication to them at all and that is because they're not called nor elected. I don't care how many of you are in a room or a space, it's not all of you who'll feel what a pregnant woman is feeling who may be there. The pregnancy which she carries will make her feel somehow that no ordinary person will feel or experience. So is it when you have a call that has gone over your head. While God is relating with you and doing things that reveal His divine interest in you, that might not be the same outworking in other people's lives. Don't you know God does certain things to those He calls?

Romans 8:30, KJV

"Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified."

Hallelujah! Calling or election is a revelation of God's interest in a vessel. Any man irrespective of race that God would one day lay His hands on and use is one who finds favour of being called and given disclosures of heaven that he might hope and walk in the same revelation - waging a good warfare by them. 

Joseph had dreams! The Bible recorded concerning the son of Jacob, Joseph that he was seventeen years old and was pasturing the flock with the children of Bilhah and Zilpah (Gen.37:2). But, this boy is no ordinary boy though in the midst of others. He is rather having distinct uncommon experiences that are not universal to the other children (though they were all together). God has intentions for him. God wants to use him to preserve a whole nation. And as such, God told him of it. It is this that makes this verse relevant to me. The Bible says in Isaiah  42:9, "behold, the former things are come to pass, and new things do I declare: before they spring forth I tell you of them."

Joseph sees the sheaves bow to him. He also sees the eleven stars, the sun and the moon do obeisance and worship to him. What could this mean? It is nothing but that this fellow, this young boy would one day become a leader of many people. How it'll be, we don't know but God who has spoken it (by giving him the dreams/a taste of it) shall bring it to pass. The Bible says in Psalms 68:11 that "the Lord gave the word: great was the company of those that published it". God is at work. What He authors shall be brought to accomplishment. He'll find bodies, means and paths for it to be fulfilled. He will ordain people - take hold of them and use them to bring those dreams to pass. Such are Joseph's brothers who sold him into slavery. Joseph knew this and at last he told them not to be offended at themselves for having sold him into slavery but that it was of the Lord to save many alive (Gen.45:4-5). 

God knows the right time. He knows what to click. He knows what to do and knows how to do it. Even if in the expectation of a man of destiny, he is confused and overwhelmed with the details of "how these things shall be" as Mary asked, God is not at all. He is the perfect administrator who rules in the affairs of men. He knows what next! 

So, the first critical step to destiny is having the dreams of it. It is seeing it at times with the eyes of your mind. It is ruminating on end on what you know is beyond you but which could only have been an assignment divinely granted and given you to fulfill - for which reason it is occurring to your mind and availing itself for your thinking. Look, your dreams will not die. It's a foretaste of what's to come. It's a fragment of God's overall plan which shall soon be fulfilled. Let me tell you something. That it was even doubled to you means it has been established by God to do. God doesn't speak or instruct repeatedly in vain. Joseph said that to Pharaoh himself (Gen.41:32). When God speaks and again speaks to you on what He'll use you to do or make you into, just be assured that He has planned it and He will do it. I pray for you that your dreams shall find safe harbour of expression. As the anointed of the Lord and one whose hand has been helped by the right hand of the Lord, you shall from today begin to experience unsual speed up in the realization of your dreams. God will send you on an errand of destiny like Joseph if one is needed to fulfill it and if you need to tarry in that same land like Isaac, you'll have the testimony of having sown and reaped the best result anyone could have had irrespective of environment. God is God but I am Olusola ADEJUMO M'Wings. He has spoken. Will He not do it?

PRAYER: You gave the Word and great was the company of those that published it. You have given the vision, thoughts, desires and dreams, you'll justify it.

BIBLE IN A YEAR: Isaiah 48:12-50:11; Ephesians 4:17-32; Psalm 69:1-18; Proverbs 24:5-6

THE LORD OF PHASES, OF ALL OPEN DOORS AND WHAT NEXT

Acts 9:6, KJV

"And he trembling and astonished said, Lord, what wilt thou have me to do? And the Lord said unto him, Arise, and go into the city, and it shall be told thee what thou must do."

While I was in Tai Solarin University of Education, Ijagun, Ogun State; I was the president of Anglican Students' Fellowship, TASUED amidst other offices entrusted to me. As my second tenure as president began, knowing that was the last lap since I'll be graduating afterwards, I began to hope and wait for what next the Lord would have me do. Would I hand over and sit idle or what exactly would He call me to and hook me up with again? Before this time, I knew I had God's call on me. I had discovered it as a call to ministry and ministry things and was living in the consciousness of it. As at this time, I had already been imparted with the anointing also through my repetitive watching of sermons of the minister God drew my heart after. My ministry was on fire and at head at this time. My teaching ministry has been revolutionized and when I talk, it becomes interesting to people. I even like talking and teaching more. I could go on for hours. I was just seeing many wonderful things from the Bible. I so much lived in the consciousness of being called and being a minister that some might have mistaken me to wanting to possess the people as my people. But we must know that what is worth doing well is worth doing at all. I thank God I've not been slack in using and becoming better (for ministry) with offices God has entrusted in my hands. I take those offices and served faithfully in them as unto the Lord. 

As I was reelected as the fellowship's president, God gave me some words on why he allowed my re-election as president again in ASF TASUED. Those words became assignment for me as I was wrapping my student ministry up and would as well become an errand to attend to after I might have graduated. 

Titus 1:5, KJV

"For this cause left I thee in Crete, that thou shouldest set in order the things that are wanting, and ordain elders in every city, as I had appointed thee".

Crete is Anglican Students'Fellowship where I was president and where God left me to be president once more and to set things still wanting in order before I go. But it was for a purpose - to see to the appointment of the next excos also. Then, the following instruction. 

Titus 3:12, KJV

"When I shall send Artemas unto thee, or Tychicus, be diligent to come unto me to Nicopolis: for I have determined there to winter".

God told me that after I might have overseen the appointment of new leaders (who I'll hand over to), I'm meant to come to Nicopolis (my place of new assignment) but that'll be after He had sent me the president of the next set amidst two preferable candidates. I told all the ASF excos who served with me in 2014/2015 Set all these. You may want to ask Ngu Barak (the president I handed over to), Oduroye Yomi (now married), Oluwabusayomi Adams (now Oluwafemi-Ige), Eunice Olabode (my sister coordinator), Opeyemi Idowu and a host of others. Even if any of them was absent minded, they would still tell you today that one thing was clear and repeatedly mentioned by Bro Sola. It's that God was leaving him for a second tenure to supervise the correct choice of new leaders after which he must come to Nicopolis. When it was time to hand over, I sincerely told them I have yet not found or known Nicopolis but I'm deciphering God wants to get me trained for ministry. I told them, that's my life. That's my calling and the weight of it bears down on me. I can't just escape it and that's because demand has been made on me and the hand of the Lord is already on me. However, I don't know whether it's in an organized Bible School setting or just with a minister who's doing it live.

I never knew that God was working out His will. I never knew that He that gave the Word has also raised a great company of those to publish it (Psalm 68:11). As I was hoping, waiting, praying and fasting for where Nicopolis would be, I never knew God would move the then Bishop Ayodele Awosoga of Ijebu Anglican Diocese to move the residing priest of St Peters Anglican Church, Ijagun and bring another in Canon Johnson Oyebode to the same place. I had already graduated when that happened but I knew in my spirit Nicopolis has not yet been found. At this time, all Excos had gone back to their fathers' houses and would only come to campus for one thing or the other - either for project or for any other business. Those around were just hanging around. So, I myself packed to Ijebu Ode to stay with Bro Emmanuel Awofeko and others. He was the one I was staying with when by ordainment and God's plan I one day met Canon (now Venerable) Johnson Oyebode. He was not even dressed as a priest that day. He saw me with some bags containing books which I was seeking packing back to Ijebu Ode where I then stayed with Bro. Awofeko. He said he had heard of me and that I was the past president of this Fellowship. We knew ourselves by acquittance. I had heard of the new priest as well. We got into talking about books and he said, "come and see". When I got into the Ijagun vicarage where he now inhabits and then into his office, I was overwhelmed seeing a library that one will need diligence to study up in a life time. We talked for awhile and I went back to town. But my mind kept going back to him. Something was calling me to him. And before you knew it, he'll invite me for vigils in his home (the vicarage) and that's how I eventually stayed and packed into the vicarage. We never slated a day. I was just going and coming until I stayed. It was then I remembered Nicopolis and how it had all come to be fulfilled. It could only have been what God only has put together to work for me. I never knew he was a minister of great works and wisdom until I was drawn closer to him. I just felt attraction towards him. There's nothing he says that doesn't minister to me. And so, I gave heed. That's how I knew him, contacted him and got trained in the hands of a minister doing it big time. Demons obey him, the Bible opens up to him, he heals the sick and does miracles, he prophesies, hears and sees and God is overall with him. I could remember some of my excos especially Sis Eunice Olabode coming to greet me in his vicarage (now my home). She nodded saying, "at last at Nicopolis!" All my other excos who were chosen again as Excos after we graduated would lovingly see me wash his car and at times come with him to minister to them since he's their vicar in charge. Many might have said, what's Papa (me) doing now but it all pays now? I never had any sense of shame identifying or serving him. I washed his clothes not because he gave me but because I received him as a father and doesn't see a big deal in it. Indeed, he was my father and his wife, my mother and his children, my siblings. 

The truth is this - before one phase ends or let's say as it nears, the God who doesn't want you stranded will ordain the next phase for you. He's committed to your progress and movement towards your destiny. He has a plan in mind not to let you alone but fit you for where you shall one day be. You will just know the next train to join when it pulls over. You'll always hear a word and a voice behind you at critical junctures of choices saying, "herein is the way, walk ye in it". You will know when what is next. You won't be confused. You'll be rightly joined to the part that'll nourish you and what next in God's agenda for you because of your future God has seen and is committed to seeing to. I bless you today as you shall always be on time and connected to the next phase of your life. You won't be static and you won't be frustrated. I am telling you that God is your admnistrator and governor of phases and if you're there seeking and longing for what is next, He'll sure open you to it. Your sheet will soon descend and you shall know that it is of it God has ordained you should, "rise, kill and eat". You won't miss the God of the new phase, chapter and open door. You'll rather be ushered into your dream land and what next.

PRAYER: Lord, I receive my sheet. My train pulls over. I am aware. I am in the know. I rise, kill and eat.

HE GOVERNS PHASES

Psalms 113: 7-8, KJV

"7 He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifteth the needy out of the dunghill; 8 That he may set him with princes, even with the princes of his people".

Yesterday, I told you that it is at all not your responsibility to scheme your way into prominence or the limelight. Rather, let patience have her work and let the zeal of the Lord do it. We also saw that it's only what the Lord does that's marvellous in people's sight. Any origination or scheme of men is always fretted and doomed to be spoiled. As a matter of fact, that it's a man made scheme is what necessitates it for death. Instead of tarrying and lasting however, it shall crashland, skip and fail. And great will be its fall and failure!

Today, God wants me to reveal Him to you as He that governs phases. I, Olusola ADEJUMO M'Wings have known God personally and intimately as He that governs phases. Whenever a phase is about ending, God in His will and outworking will speed up and open up another. This is so that you might continue to progress, grow and go until you arrive at your large and wealthy place where you have room to fulfill or manifest all your intentions unhindered. 

This revelation I'm teaching has so much become second nature and an embodied angel working for me so much more that I just see God hover over my situation, opening me up to new places and joining me to new people [that I'll later discover I should be in pact with] but without my having initiated it. The one that shocks me of all these experiences is how God can be mindful of a man two years down the line as to send somebody ahead of him to a place He'll one day bring that same man to. He'll just grant somebody an opening into an institution or give him a privilege to stand before kings. His own standing there in the overall plan of God is that through him, many sons will be called unto glory - their destiny. And so when the time comes, the only thought of the man up there would be to call or help that man who's waiting earnestly for the next phase of his life to kick-start but doesn't even know how, where or what to do of his own power to make it launch. Today, God is raising men for your sake. That's a reason why you should not envy anybody. Anyone who runs ahead of you is a viable and possible instrument in God's hands to open the door of where they have gone to you later. Thank God the butler serves in Pharaoh's presence and had himself reinstated. After two full years, God opened the door to Joseph through him (Gen.41:1, 9, 12). If your way pleases God and you're living His will (written and breathed daily), you'll see how much God will take thought for you. 

It'll therefore be, before one phase ends, God has initiated another for you. Where next to be, I don't know specifically but I'm desirous to know and I'm open to the Holy Ghost on where He might lead me. That's how I live. I live expecting and waiting on Him. This way, I quickly progress and move on to obey when He speaks. This way, He takes thought over me too. He could see that I'm staking everything on Him. He knows I have become a worm (without a backbone) and that where He leads is where I'll go. Why won't He therefore precipitate and open to me what the next phase is? The next plane is waiting. The next train's ticket is ready. The man whose company you must next join will soon ride pass your way and like God told Philip, it'll be a call to "join his Chariot". On such occasion, there won't be any resistance at your proposal to him. Whenever you ask such man saying, "do you understand what you're reading?" The reply would be, "how can I except a man explains to me". You'll immediately be offered a seat beside them (not at their foot) that way because that's the Lord's doing that's always marvellous in our sight.

Acts 8:31, KJV

"And he said, How can I, except some man should guide me? And he desired Philip that he would come up and sit with him."

The Lord's act won't give you a blessing by demanding you to lose a virtue. God does rather without adding any sorrow. Today, believe God that as one phase is about ending in your life, another which is of necessity will start. You're in God's hands and He has planned your journey all through. 

PRAYER: O God of Phases, open to me new doors.

MORNING WINGS DAILY DEVOTIONAL GUIDE - Olusola ADEJUMO

DESIRING A SPACE AMIDST THE GREAT AND STRONG

Isaiah 53:12, KJV

"12 Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he hath poured out his soul unto death: and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors". 

I have taught on that theme before. However, as I prayed, I felt the nudging of the Holy Spirit on it again. When I first taught on it, I did using that same quoted Isaiah 53 where its revelation had broken loose from as given me by God to teach to the body of Christ. What you must understand is this. If God wants you to say or teach something as a minister, the Holy Spirit has a way of making that thing appeal you anew. You might have known or done it before but somehow, it'll interest you again and looks fitting for the time once more. It is this that makes us prophetic and our words fitting and meeting the needs in specific times and seasons. Who knows who God wants to speak with when He prompts or occasions such word?

Introduction is the Lord's and our prayer should be, God, introduce me rightly and at my time! Until the word of Joseph came, he could therefore do nothing but remain laid in iron. He was rather stayed in the waiting room. 

Psalms 105:18-19, KJV 

"18 Whose feet they hurt with fetters: he was laid in iron: 19 Until the time that his word came: the word of the LORD tried him". 

I found out that what you're not destined for, you may not aspire to be. If you have a soul revelation that refuses to be satisfied with operating at your local church level for instance but rather sees himself with influence all around in the body of Christ, it may be that the jurisdiction of your calling is wider and of that larger audience which is why such thought and reoccurring thought of your being used greatly and more mightily comes to your mind often. Many times, those with such destiny, expectation or inner aspiration would have to wait until the Lord flings open the door of ministry by which they could go national or into such space. It was God who opened this door of "come up hither" to Joseph himself. God knows who to use, the event to launch and where it must be slated. Nothing confuses Him and He's so mindful of you that nothing shall go amiss. It is basically the Lord's doing and it should be left to Him to do. Your responsibility as a son or daughter that's not content with his status, position or influence is to pray that the vision of the greater tomorrow God has flashed into your heart or the ministering on a larger platform that keeps appealing your mind will come to pass. Don't fret or compare yourself with those who might even be younger than you are but who have had this door opened unto them. The Bible says, "no man can receive anything except it be given him from heaven" (John 3:27). And who knows whether those you're unnecessarily envying waited on the Lord for this door to be opened to them or they schemed, forced and initiated it by being men pleasers and having sacrificed a virtue and an ingredient of costly amount? Everyone who has made it knows how he made it irrespective of the story they tell men. The Bible also says in Psalms 75:6-7 that, "promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south but God is the judge: he putteth down one, and setteth up another". It means this issue of being promoted or gaining more influence or having more estates to watch over is of God and solely His work to us as He deems fit. Your own responsibility is to remain prepared, sendable and fit for your day of glory and showing forth in the body of Christ or that spehere of life you've been called unto. God is actually at work so that everything might work for your good. Don't move out of your calling before this day or decide to seek for a way to promote yourself into prominence. It is the Lord's doing that will always be marvellous to us. Man's can't hit that standard. Something can't but be detected to have gone wrong, missing, decayed or corrupt on the way. Such promotion and "come up hither" solely worked out by men doesn't last. Your way up will usually be your way down. If you've been self promoted by men or through your own lobbying etc, it'll have to be by your effort you'll maintain been in the good book of such who have preferred and chosen you to introduce or bring to the limelight. However, if you let God do it, you have God to be obligated to. There and then, you won't be under any pressure to satisfy any man to the defying of God, His will or your own conscience and peace. You'll even be stable and strong not to change your message. Do you know how many who have known God's thought towards them is of peace and of welfare, to give them a future and a hope and to call them to the hills but who have not been patient enough in letting God's time and God's zeal do it. The Bible says in James 1:4 to, "let patience have her perfect work..." So please, don't disturb the outworking of patience. The Bible also talks of the curiosity of God's zeal in bringing promises to manifestation. It says in Isaiah 9:7, "the zeal of the Lord is doing it". What you therefore think is taking time is rather fulfilling its cycle. If you'll enjoy it forever, let patience have its effect on it. However, God is also mindful of bringing His utterance and will to you to pass. So, what you think is slow is actually running at a full speed seeking to be fulfilled because it has been willed and slated to come to pass by God's mouth. It's on this basis that God's zeal is seriously and assidiously seeking to make it work out. It'll find people, events and places to hook to for fulfiment. That is God for you! God is interested in making it work because He is not a man that He should lie or the son of man that He should repent. He wants what He has told you of His greatness to you to come to pass that you may know Him as the faithful God and be assured that He's not an erratic speaker or as a mad man beating the air. He has a goal. However, let Him do this work solely. Do not interrupt Him as to reap consequences that only follows the blessing the Lord has not solely given or work out. 

PRAYER: Lord, I surrender to let patience have its full work. I also thank God for your zeal which is jealous for my manifestation and so is seeking it.
