A RESTORER OF THY YEARS - My Sign Series 004

Ruth 4:14 - 15, KJV

"14 And the women said unto Naomi, Blessed be the LORD, which hath not left thee this day without a kinsman, that his name may be famous in Israel.15 And he shall be unto thee a restorer of thy life, and a nourisher of thine old age: for thy daughter in law, which loveth thee, which is better to thee than seven sons, hath born him".

Today, lost signs shall be found and restored again. Today, lost years shall be restored. God shall do something that'll lead to the restoring of your pined away years. I told you yesterday of how Jacob was revived. His soul was already dying and his bones weakened but an energy caused by hope birthed a new life in him when it is broken to him that Joseph yet lives by the same mouths that had lied to him about his death. He therefore was revived. His lost years was restored. He immediately became a youth and was young at heart again. He wanted to live and continue living once again. He immediately agrees to go and see Joseph before he dies. Where does that energy come from? Supplied by that good news and his aroused hope. 

Genesis 45:27-28, KJV

"27 And they told him all the words of Joseph, which he had said unto them: and when he saw the wagons which Joseph had sent to carry him, the spirit of Jacob their father revived: 28 And Israel said, It is enough; Joseph my son is yet alive: I will go and see him before I die".

Look, there's a news that brings healing and reviving. Even if you were on the sick bed, it would stand you up and heal you instantly. Such that'll meet your need and fit where you're needy is what the Lord is bringing your way today. What good, reviving and healing news do you need to hear? It's coming your way right now. You'll yet live once again. Life will once more makes sense to you again. You'll no longer despise life but embrace living and that'll be because you shall be restored your lost signs like Jacob was restored his lost son, Joseph.

What happened to Naomi in today's reading? She found her signs - her long gone signs again. How, you'll ask? When Obed is born by Ruth through Boaz (the nearest kinsman redeemer), all the women who heard of that joy gathered together and gossiped saying, "praise the Lord who has provided a redeemer for your family! May this child be famous in Israel. May he restore your youth and care for you in your old age. For he is the son of your daughter in law who loves you and has been better to you than seven sons!"

Did you hear what the women said, "may she restores Naomi's youth?" You may want to ask what happened to Naomi that led to the depreciation and loss of her youth. It's the total loss of her husband, Elimelech and two sons: Mahlon and Chilion. In her words at her return to Israel, she went out full but came back empty. She even told everyone not to call her Naomi but Mara (which means bitter) - Ruth 1:20-21. But the arrival of Obed (the new born baby of Ruth and Boaz) changes the narrative and gives her new hope. It revives Naomi who was a dying at that time. Life was not making sense for her. It seems the memory of the dead (her own husband and her two sons) would forever perish and not be named again. She has been hit severely by that loss and recovery or finding of her signs just seems impossible. However, God who ordains a lamp for David raised a hope for her. She was recovered and revived by the birth of Obed like the women gossiped. Obed becomes a restorer of her years to her. Immediately she heard of the new birth, she adopted the new baby and the Bible records, "16 Naomi took the baby and cuddled him to her breast. And she cared for him as if he were her own. 17 The neighbour women said, "Now at last Naomi has a son again!" And they named him Obed. He became the father of Jesse and the grandfather of David" (NLT). 

May you see your signs again. May the lost be seen again. May the lost reoccur again. Did you read what those women testify of Naomi? They said, "a son has been born to Naomi again". Meaning, Naomi has seen her signs again. She once lost two children but this one has become a restorer of her years and a revisitation of God's mercy - causing hope in her again. Her children are what she missed very much and that's what the Lord in Obed brought back to comfort her.

I am hereby solidified that those of you who have lost husbands or children will see your signs again. How? If it's temporary separation occasioned by divorce or stubbornness of heart and not that they are dead, God will eventually causes a reunion between you both. On another ground if the husband is dead, the wife left behind may give birth to a child that'll be a sign alluding to the past sign (the father). There's nothing hidden that won't be declared the Bible says (Luke 12:2). I'm also caused to say there's nothing lost by you that won't be recalled or found. You shall see your signs again. Hope shall testify to you and life shall once more makes sense to live. 

PRAYER: Lord, restore my lost, lonely and wasted away years. Cause me to hear joy in my innermost being and let every broken bones rejoice. I receive this joy this new month.

BIBLE IN A YEAR: Isaiah 57:15-59:21; Philippians 1:1-26; Psalm 71:1-24; Proverbs 24:9-10

STOLEN OUT OF THE LAND OF THE HEBREWS - My Sign Series 003

Genesis 40:15, KJV

"For indeed I was stolen away out of the land of the Hebrews: and here also have I done nothing that they should put me into the dungeon".

This is pitiable Joseph speaking here. He has been pressed and troubled on all sides. As at the time of confessing this, he is threatening to break. The archers have solely grieved him as Jacob later identifies. But thank God that his bow abides in strength (Gen. 49:23-24). Thank God he keeps receiving a ministration of encouragement, hope and life that there's an expected end to await and stay alive for. And it indeed came. We all knew it came. Hallelujah! God is faithful. 

But here, Joseph makes a statement that will cause us to flashback a little. Joseph didn't want to travel abroad (go to Egypt). Like Africans whose ancestors were taken in big ships across the Atlantic to Haiti, Cuba, the Carribean, Jamaica, Brazil, America etc to work as forced labourers and slaves, God had to force Joseph out because He has intention of seeing to the fulfilment of his dreams which he'd seen, was joyful and boastful about. So, he was forcefully set on a journey of, "I don't want to go". He was left with no choice and that is clear in his speech. He said, "for I was stolen away from the land of the Hebrews". Do you know what it means to steal? It means to actually kidnap. Man kidnapping has been since. Many Africans were kidnapped to be sold as slaves actually. But while in Egypt, he lost all connection with Jacob and home. He is in an entirely different land with no familiar face to call unto. He probably doesn't see any other Hebrew beside himself. Imagine that. He only hears some people of other tongues but he is by himself. 

Jacob also wouldn't be comforted and when the garments of many colours was sent him, he wept sore (Gen.37:35). He wanted to be reunited with Joseph but he must have given up all hope. Occasionally, a ray of hope that he would one day see Joseph might reoccur to his mind but he might be too quick to discard it because he has enough prove on Joseph having died. May I tell you something? Many people there be who have been lied to that their children are dead. That is just a lie to keep you calm and shut you forever from further enquiry. But as my Lord lives, you shall receive him or her back alive. Irrespective of who is lost who you're expecting to see again, like signs they shall reappear but in flesh and blood in Jesus name. 

But do you know that despite the gulf, the plans and workings of man that Joseph will never reconnect with family, he actually does. First, when Jacob sees proves that he is still alive - seeing the gifts and wagons he sent to bring him to Egypt, the Bible records that, "and Jacob was revived". 

Genesis 45:27, KJV

"And they told him all the words of Joseph, which he had said unto them: and when he saw the wagons which Joseph had sent to carry him, the spirit of Jacob their father revived:"

Previously, he was dying and wearing off with nothing to live for or expect again. Life has borne hard on him but at that news came hope. Eventually, at his death bed, Jacob reveals how much God had exceeded his expectation. 

Genesis 48:11, KJV

"And Israel said unto Joseph, I had not thought to see thy face: and, lo, God hath shewed me also thy seed".

He was not thinking of seeing Joseph (his sign) again (because he had believed in a lie) that his child had died abroad, at war, at the sea or has gone with a woman and never to come back again. Those are the common things people believe in. So, such belief would collect prayer from their mouths and expectation from their hearts. Rather, it is quietness and occasional sorrow of heart when remembrance strikes them of this their lost sign. However, Jacob not only sees Joseph, he sees his children with him. He receives more than his expectation. May I tell you that you'll see your signs and then see your signs of signs. God will bountifully load you with new experiences that'll exceed and topple the former. The kind of find ongoing now is one that'll shock you to the very core. You wouldn't have believed in such type of recovery if told you but for the fact that you're the one experiencing it yourself. So, all of you who have lost people or forgotten about them (when you have been lied to that they are dead), get ready to receive them back. My Father is saying, they shall find their ways back home. He's saying, they are marked people who He is with and so they can't get lost successfully and eventually. They must return. They're properties that must be refunded. They're coming home. You can now prepare a feast, be full of expectation and see the miracle. Those coming back home this time include age long mad people who have been let go because their cases have defied healing. The hand of the Lord is upon them, they shall be miraculously healed, found and turned back home. No more confession that, "we see not our signs". God's voice is found and located on the waters. It's a visible, identifiable miraculous sign. 

Psalms 29:3, KJV

"The voice of the LORD is upon the waters..."

Today, locating, discovering and marking of all your disappeared signs comes handy. You shall no longer wait unending. 

PRAYER: Lord, thank you for the restoration and refunding of people and hope exceedingly and beyond expectation. We see our signs again and we're rejoiced.

MY SON WHO'S LOST - My Sign Series 002

Read Luke 15:11-32

Luke 15:22, 24, KJV

"22 But the father said to his servants, Bring forth the best robe, and put it on him; and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet: 24 For this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found. And they began to be merry."

The Bible talks of a son who is lost. You may not know that there are many people in our world with children that they have for long not heard from let alone see. They see not their signs in that regard. Those signs are lost. Disconnection has happened. The father is somewhere and the child is in another place. The mother is in the distance and the son at that end of the earth. Connection is just not happening. Though there's yearning and thought of reuniting often, yet these two ends or worlds still never meet. Imagine two lines that never meet irrespective of how the graph is plotted. However, God is chattering such technique of the devil over whomsoever's life it has been effected. Whereever something invisible but powerful just hold it like that - keeping two separate people who should be indivisible divided, I ask for the judgement of that evil power. Or don't you know it's possible for a man to leave for abroad and contrary to his plans and arrangements with the wife he left behind refuses to come back to pick her unto himself. What I want you to see is that some it happened to didn't do it intentionally but rather because of the manipulation of the evil one and those who take desire in separating two united persons. In such case, the parties concerned will seek to reunite but it won't just add up. They won't just see or find their signs. Yet, this may be the boy that the Mama used to cherish, sing for or even sold her tangibles to send abroad. But what has happened? Through enchantment and divination, they have shut that boy overseas so that he won't even have a remembrance of the mother let alone home again. Imagine a mother calling his own son and the son saying, "do I know you or have I ever talked to you before?" When did it happen that a sheep could no longer hear the voice of his shepherd when the Bible says, "my voice they know" (John 10:3,5,14). You'll immediately dissect that it's either that boy is naturally and outrightly mad or by some supernatural forces, he has been made mad or madened.  In such case, it is an evil power and watch over them that is keeping them both in their two different worlds. At times, none of them will even have the remembrance of each other so that the remembering person does not fight for the forgetful. Some children are therefore lost to peer groups - cultism, prostitution, scamming, misbehaviour etc and have chosen to stay in those worlds with peers who have now become their families. The parents can only pray and anticipate that God will one day make their signs to appear. However, that sign is lost at the moment. It's like a signal that has vanished and is no where to be found. No more sign or revelation of it near but it sure can still appear and be found. I have proves from the Bible on it being found and that's what I now share above any earthly experience.

Jesus gave a parable of a wealthy man with two sons. One crazily and in haste approaches the father and demands that he shares his living and gives him his part. The father obliged him. This boy in a few days pack and takes a journey to a far away land (far away from home, where he'll be a total stranger and no familiar face will identify him). There, the Bible records he squanders all with riotous living. He became friends with ragamuffins, prostitutes, Saturday boys, sinners - men and women who have escaped from home and are lost in life and purposes. These are those parents have sought and hoped for but have not found or received back. He made them his surrogate family. He was enjoying their company and he thought he had found true family. But when his wealth flees, reality struck as he was all left alone. He had to employ himself out. This way, he learnt some hard lessons that brought him to his senses. Due to the economic hardship in that land as occasioned by famine, he fain would have eaten the pods that the pigs eat but even that was not given to him. This way, he was brought to his knees. He calls himself to counsel that it'll be better to return to his father. It was he who even made us know that his father's servants have bread enough to eat and to spare and he, the son is here perishing. 

You see, he has seen reasons to go back home. But, is he the only one who has been looking forward to a reunion? No! The father has been onlooking and expectant all time. He is so expectant that the day he sees him from afar off, he runs to meet and embrace him. It turns a reunion that calls for a celebration. 

Luke 15:20, KJV

"And he arose, and came to his father. But when he was yet a great way off, his father saw him, and had compassion, and ran, and fell on his neck, and kissed him."

The truth is this. You don't have eyes or heart for what has not been your thinking all day. You see, both the father and the son see their signs (what was lost again). They found themselves! The father meets the son he had once known (but lost) again just like the son once again comes into the company of his father and love. Each of them saw their lost signs. They received themselves back. Today, God has given me the ministry of John the Baptist and that's what I'll be doing now (Luke 1:17). I'm to turn the hearts of fathers to sons and sons to fathers. Anyone here who has lost a child to the world, sin and promiscuousness is receiving them back now. If yours was kidnapped or stolen, you'll receive him back alive. What the Lord is saying I should declare is that, "you will see your signs again". It'll come with the water. Mark that! The voice of the Lord is on many waters! (Psalm 29:3). That sign can be found vibrating, billowing and shaking in great movement while sounding the deep. If the voice of the Lord (as a sign) could be found upon the waters, by that you shall have your catch also. The sign of the Lord exists on the water and is visible to identify and recognize. Your own signs shall become present and visible now also irrespective of where it has gone lost or has been taken to. You'll no longer be dribbled by Satan! You're seeing your signs. You'll feel the joy of before. David prayed that God will restore to him the joy of his salvation and make him hear joy and gladness [like before]. What he was asking for is his sign which had always delighted and titillated him but which is now gone after sinning and being beaten by guilt (Psalm 51:8,12). Today, your signs will appear again. All your broken bones will rejoice again. What is in disappearance shall come floating home. Receive your signs. Receive the visitation of anything lost and mourned. 

PRAYER: Lord, be it unto me according to Your restoration plan. I am reinstated and I now see my signs. Like God's voice visible on the water, my signs shall float home and be marked by me.

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.

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!

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.

MORNING WINGS DAILY DEVOTIONAL GUIDE - Olusola ADEJUMO

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.
