WHEN THOU SHALT SAY I HAVE NO PLEASURE - I Still Have Pleasure Series 001

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Ecclesiastes 12:1, KJV

"Remember now thy Creator in the days of thy youth, while the evil days come not, nor the years draw nigh, when thou shalt say, I have no pleasure in them..."

Do you mean we will all get where we will profess, "I have no pleasure in them." That period is no other but a time when what charmed no longer does. At such a moment, things basically lose their spell on us and it seems we no longer feel experiences deeply and strongly like before. At such natural stage of man, he begins to die and return. 

Here's Solomon sending a warning on the need for us to maximize our youthfulness. Solomon admonishes us to "Remember our Creator in the days of our youth..."

Then, he emphasized, "while the evil days come not, nor the years draw nigh when thou shalt say, I have no pleasure in them."

The evil days and the years that draw nigh with the confession of "I no pleasure in them" refer to old age. At old age, activities lose their cords with which they have held us bound for years. Your senses to start with will diminish in potency. The “pleasure” Solomon refers to in its entirety includes physical vitality, sensory enjoyment (sight, sound, taste), sexual desire, independence and courage, enjoyment of life itself. Solomon was making a point when He said, one will get to a place where one loses interest in general activities of life that one once lived actively to rejoice in. Then, you'll hear, "Let the young continue. It's their own time." The reason for such an attitude or statement was then given, "because man goes to his long home..." (Eccl. 12:5). 

It therefore becomes a subject matter of interest to me to consider "interest" and the role it plays in our lives. What happens to a man who still retains a "burning interest or desire" - the very thing KJV called "pleasure?" My prayer for you is that you will not lose interest in life. Anybody who loses interest in life to start with is such who commits suicide. When people who still have long years ahead of them, even to correct whatever mistake they've made claim their own lives, then it could be said that they have lost interest in life. Wherever there's interest, desire or pleasure, there's always a present fire to continue to pursue. Giving up or casting in the towel is a sign of having been dispirited or of losing interest. If you do not have your interest doused, then you can still go on to achieve what you couldn't achieve last year. 2026 affords you with a new page to write on. 

Don't forget what Solomon said in that opening chapter. It says, "Remember now thy Creator in the days of your youth when the evil days come not nor the years draw near when thou shalt say, I have no pleasure in them." Solomon is saying, "aged people naturally lose interest in life and its busyness." That's why they no longer bother on acquiring the latest of gadgets. What freaks you doesn't move them again. The reason is not because they aren't flesh and blood as you are but because they have lost interest in those things that used to appeal and trouble the senses. Degradation has happened to their senses for sure. They can't feel, hear, see or taste like before. As such, their admiration and interest also reduces over this world's affairs, goods and their pursuit. 

That's why I prayed earlier that you won't become tired. You don't necessarily have to grow old before you have the confession of aged people who say, "I have no pleasure in them." Many youths are already tired, fainting and collapsing on the road. My prayer is that you will have pleasure in what you should still retain pleasure for. May you still burn after life, taking it by its horns to discharge the will of God in the time you have to live - having your strength intact. 

If you've been jilted, betrayed or broken from a relationship before, you might have gotten where you no longer have pleasure or interest in trying or doing that business again. There are people who have vowed they'll never remarry because they were hurt from their previous marriages. Such have come to the state of these aged humans who are only expecting their departure to their "long home." Nothing best describes them than, "I have no pleasure in them" again. 

Have you seen anyone that has lost interest? He cannot sprint or attack a goal. He'll rather tell you to let it go. Your interest and desire must be alive still in 2026, greatly than before. You need it to do life and wage a good warfare. If you're not disinterested in life, living and following still, then I don't need to see a vision before telling you you'll surely make it. Why? The Bible says, "There's hope for a tree if it be cut down that it will sprout again. Though the roots wax old in the ground..., yet it shall bud up at the scent of water" (Job 14:7-9). 

At the sight of the right opportunity, the appearance of divine coincidence and timing and in the presence of the right resources, you can't but bounce back and make a big catch. Stay in the fight! That's what will happen to you. If you won't pack up to resign and resolve that you wouldn't make new attempts again, then you can't but achieve big. Only those without dreams again don't breathe or live actively by keeping interests alive in themselves. If you carry a burning desire or expectation, it will not only keep you awake; it will keep you active. God is saying, be especially interested in this year. Be especially interested in doing good. Let interest - desire be stirred in you to live actively and to the fullest. Don't be like those waiting for their final bus to their "long home" - grave. If there's life, there's hope. If you won't lose your interest or say, "you have no pleasure in pursuing your dreams again', I bet it with you that you'll make it. 

Don't give up. Has church or we ministers of God disappointed you? Don't lose interest in God. Else, you won't be able to pursue Him nor seek to know Him. You have to keep interest alive. That's when you can float like a balloon in water. All those without interest will sink into the water like led. Keep interest alive and all things become achievable for you. As a matter of fact, that's when you can see doors all around and where doors are not. 

PRAYER: I am inflated anew. Nothing deflates me. I refuse to be dis-spirited. I entered this year 2026 as a giant: able and potent to achieve. I shall not be demotivated. I go in this my revealed might.

BIBLE IN A YEAR: Genesis 1:1-2:25, Matthew 1:1-2:12, Psalm 1:1-6, Proverbs 1:1-6

MORNING WINGS DAILY DEVOTIONAL - Olusola & Oreoluwa ADEJUMO

FURNISHED, PREPARED AND HANDED OVER

Luke 22:11-12, KJV

"11 And ye shall say unto the goodman of the house, The Master saith unto thee, Where is the guestchamber, where I shall eat the passover with my disciples? 

12 And he shall shew you a large upper room furnished: there make ready."

What explanation can we give to the experience here? How can someone walk up to you, ask you where you have prepared for an inhouse meeting he wants to host and you in your right senses deliver the key to him without having closed a deal with him afore time?

I told someone, "God is our mouth. He speaks to the hearts of people on our behalf and then ministry becomes easier." A minister cannot go around begging people to have 'mercy' on him. But he can cry to God who will instruct men to receive him and open a spot to him when he comes. That's exactly what happened to Jesus here. His ministry enjoys mercy at no cost. Ministry became fun because He was led. 

Jesus is a fully led fellow. Leading will give you everything including your provision. Jesus only paid for a few things with money and at those times or that time, the money was supernaturally provided for (Matt.17:24-27, John 12:6, John 13:29). The provision came supernaturally, not from savings or labour. That tells me something, money is not ultimately what I always need to meet my needs. Why?

If today I wanted to organize a meeting in Ijebu Ode because God is sending me there and I needed a venue, God can send me to a place where He has sovereignly prepared as our venue. We may not have the money for rent at hand by ourselves. We would have confessed that to the Lord and He knowing how to meet our needs could either send us someone to pay for it or have it yielded up to us for free. Don't think it's impossible. If it were impossible, it wouldn't have been written in the Bible. If it were impossible, it wouldn't have happened to a lot of us. I've experienced God's provision this way even in a foreign land. People had taken me in, met my needs and treated me as their son yet didn't know me before. As a matter of fact, there was nobody to testify of me to them. Despite that, they opened their door to me. The one which baffled me most was this man called Pa. Joseph who took me in while I was in Katsina town, Katsina State. He had two daughters, lived in a room and parlour self contain that was barely enough for his family. He rather struck a deal with another Christian brother who lived in the neighborhood in whose house I often slept every night after taking dinner at his house. Imagine the mile he went for me. 

They asked Jesus, "where will you have us prepare?" (Lk.22:9). Then, He began to speak. 

Luke 22:10-12, KJV

"10 And he said unto them, Behold, when ye are entered into the city, there shall a man meet you, bearing a pitcher of water; follow him into the house where he entereth in.  

11 And ye shall say unto the goodman of the house, The Master saith unto thee, Where is the guestchamber, where I shall eat the passover with my disciples? 

12 And he shall shew you a large upper room furnished: there make ready."

Imagine this! It was not even an ordinary room. It was a LARGE UPPER ROOM - the kind that people will want to have for themselves. Despite how roomy and ventilated it is, it was waiting for its possessor. Jesus didn't take custody of that property for weeks or months. It was only for a day but even at that, it was released. Yet, Jesus had never met that man to discuss or falsely plan things out with him. Even the disciples only obeyed and trusted Jesus and they found it so. How God wants us to trust Him when He leads us. If for everything - programmes and events you'll do, you let it be God's initiation, it won't be hard for God providing for what He has initiated. A whole upper room, furnished and made ready was yielded up for Jesus' use and even without a pay. What a God! Meaning, if we'll find out, there's a place God has designated for each of our needs to be met. At one time, God kept money in a mouth's fish just to meet Jesus' needs. At this time, it was a man He sent Him to who has a room ready for him. That man could have turned people away who wanted to rent that property because he was feeling for its coming purpose. That man will not argue but rather yield to them that which God has afore spoken or convicted him about. That's the story of how a well furnished house was yielded to Jesus as it was. When this man was cleaning, furnishing or probably renovating that place, he might not know to what end until God told him about it. But at day's end, to what end arrives.

That's why for a Christian, money is not everything. What you want are your needs met. If when you're hungry, needing a shoe, a phone, wanting to pay your school fees etc; someone always appears to give you that which you need at that material time, how much money will you touch or have to hold? You'll just see you're progressing without necessarily holding or hoarding money for a need that'll pop up. That's why you can trust God for your needs that will pop up. You can enjoy a service or buy goods that don't need to be necessarily taken care of by you. This principle and faith life is so effective in Jesus' life that even at His death, it was someone who came to beg for his corpse, laying it to rest in his own newly dug grave (Matthew 27:57-60). Jesus unlike some men who'll make plans for their funeral - what cloth/clothe they must be buried in, how and where etc didn't do any of those. He knows His life is a project in God's hands. If He has appeared on the human scene at the right time and He is not missing His time in the scheme of things, then the right man will show up at the right time to take care of Him and so it was throughout. 

This Year 2026, God wants you to stick to His plans for you. He'll lead you so finely that you'll wonder what has changed that had not been before. 

PRAYER: Lord, I submit to Your leading and leadership. I enter into everything you've planned for me that I might fulfill age long prophecies written about me.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

MORNING WINGS DAILY DEVOTIONAL - Olusola & Oreoluwa ADEJUMO

LEFT AS IT WAS: THE BREAKTHROUGH OF MASSIVE PROVISION 

II Kings 7:7, KJV

"Wherefore they arose and fled in the twilight, and left their tents, and their horses, and their asses, even the camp as it was, and fled for their life."

I just heard, "left as it was." Listen, people will leave things behind for you. They'll reserve things just for your needs. They'll leave it as it is for you. They'll leave their room, house, car, business as they are for your profitability and meeting of purpose under God. They'll say, "Bro./Sis, can you take over in my absence? Can you make this yours? Can you have this?" 

They won't need to take or subtract anything out of it. If they do, the Spirit will convict them saying, "Return it. It has to be left as it is. The new owner stands before you."

That's what you'll enjoy henceforth. Which story do I bring you today? Let's see what the Holy Spirit has to say about that word He's declaring. He's showing me a place. 

II Kings 7:6-7, KJV

"6 For the LORD had made the host of the Syrians to hear a noise of chariots, and a noise of horses, even the noise of a great host: and they said one to another, Lo, the king of Israel hath hired against us the kings of the Hittites, and the kings of the Egyptians, to come upon us.  

7 Wherefore they arose and fled in the twilight, and left their tents, and their horses, and their asses, even the camp as it was, and fled for their life."

What does the Bible say they did upon hearing that noise? "They fled and left their tents, horses, asses, even the camp as it was..."

That's where that declaration came from. Look once more, where necessary for the fulfillment of God's assignment and purpose "people are going to leave their properties for you as it is." It may be people relocating abroad or those God has blessed but moving onto a larger inheritance etc but what I know is that at this time, people are yielding up their properties for God's use. 

Where it is needed, God will make demands on people to yield up what is theirs for your sake. It took God nothing to do that for Samaria. Samaria was at the edge of being totally broken and surrendering but there was a turn around. The man of God prophesied plenty for a specific time of the next day and God had to move to disallow His words from falling to the ground. If not, Samaria would have fallen (as the capital city of Israel) - the Northern Kingdom. 

So, God did the unthinkable. He made the Syrians (who had come to lay siege and who had created a famine through the same siege) to hear the noises of chariots and of horses. It was such a noise that the Bible describes it as, "the noise of a great host." The miracle is that they interpreted it wrongly. They mistaken it for the King of Israel having hired against them the Kings of Egypt and the Hittite. Caught with fear, they took flight. 

What baffles me is that they left all their beasts of burdens which could have hastened their escape for running on foot. They were so scared that no one thought of that. What came on them was terror. Outright terror wherefore they arose and fled for their lives - living the entire camp and the provision they have stored for themselves as it is. It is this that was later discovered by the four lepers, announced to the King and looted by the hungry/dying people. So, the Word of the Lord came to pass (II Kings 7:16). 

I pray for you, you'll inherit people where necessary. God does that for His purpose. Do you know you can inherit a whole library of someone? The old man will just call you in having found your passion for reading to have all he has gathered from the days of his youth. If the books are majorly Christian literature, it may mean you have a future in Christian service and that's one of the means God wants to use to reinforce your training. I pray for you, you'll reap after people. You'll harvest their labour. When necessary, God makes that happen. It happens only as He sees needs. God knows how He brought Samaria out of famine. He also knows how He'll take care of you especially if he is sending you somewhere. That reminds me of one minister in Ondo State, Nigeria who's living in a fully furnished house he didn't build. How? When God sent him there for ministry, his arrival time coincides with the relocation of a couple abroad. Finding he's a minister and having been witnessed to, they yielded the entire house to him as it is. The day you will have a car, it may be unplanned. The fellow will just yield it to you, taking only his personal belongings like diary and phone. Whenever it's to serve God's purpose, uncommon things can happen. 

The one experience that'll mark and dott your life as you go into Year 2026 is that, "people will leave/yield things (their things) up for you as it is." Shockingly, if that thing needs a repair, they'll bear the responsibility and still have it sent to you as brand new. While I was on campus, needing a room as I planned relocation from where I was previously. A fellowship brother but who was a set ahead of me asked if I could come and occupy his room as he was leaving school. He not only left the house as it was for me. He paid for my rent in advance. Till today, many of the ties I inherited from him are still what I use for both ministry and work. 

When it is the Lord, they'll not be covetous to take one thing from it. Nothing will be important to them that they won't see as a necessity for you unless it's a very personal belonging like I earlier mentioned. As you go about the kingdom's business henceforth, expect the miracle of things being yielded up to you as they are. 

PRAYER/CONFESSION: I am never stranded. God takes thought for me by raising men who'll leave their things for me as it is. With this, I'm effective with my assignment and purpose even in 2026.

WEDNESDAY - 24TH DECEMBER, 2025

MORNING WINGS DAILY DEVOTIONAL - Olusola & Oreoluwa ADEJUMO

TAKING THOUGHT: LET US BUILD FOR HIM A PLACE

II Kings 4:10, KJV 

"Let us make a little chamber, I pray thee, on the wall; and let us set for him there a bed, and a table, and a stool, and a candlestick: and it shall be, when he cometh to us, that he shall turn in thither."

You know, it is yours to serve the Lord and it is His to bless you. God's kingdom is one of administration of resources. How I wish a lot of people will know that God can administer resources to them by Himself for specific needs in their lives. Those resources may be an answer to prayer or a waiting that's being done. What matters is that God can send resources your way. He can impregnate and let it become the thought of someone to think of you and your welfare. It is one of the ways God takes care of people - obedient and willing Christians in this kingdom. 

Resources do go two ways. God can impinge on your heart to give to people as a way of administering to them and He can impinge on people to allocate to you as a way of meeting your needs in criticality and hot tempered time when it needs to be met. That's why I said resources do go around in this kingdom."

When we talk of trusting God for provision, many who haven't known or accustomed themselves with this path would get confused. They'll say they're preaching a substitution to hard work. Recently, a minister friend just discovered I have a job. We attended the same tertiary institution together for our undergraduate studies. He was shocked that I was also keeping a job. He thought I was only running ministry. My consistency in ministry and in authoring the devotional had deceived him. However, despite keeping a job - not even one; I have many jobs. I rely and trust God often for provision. Only my wife could tell you how much I operate that. I can have money at hand and I'll have it disbursed to where God wanted it to go and begin to trust God to meet my own needs. I could have removed from that salary or income of mine to buy my necessities but I just wanted to work this principle, acclimatize with it and have a testimony to show people that it works. And indeed, it works. 

Look at Elisha, he was only consistent in his service to God. That woman even acknowledges that. She says, "I perceive this is a holy man of God which passes by us continually." You see, Elisha is a consistent man. He passes continually. He didn't pass just once. He repeatedly passes in carrying out God's assignment. It was while discharging his ministry day in day out as he passed that this woman first constrained him to branch and eat bread before it eventually led to devising a means to build a place for him. 

Look at me. Your car's key is in the hand of someone. You can buy for yourself if you want but another reality is that you can be given. Elisha never for once thought about resting on his journey but God could see the big need in his life. I'm sure he might have travelled by foot. Travelling that way constantly continuously can't but be wearisome. God knew he needed rest - a break on the way. So, God raised this woman to take notice of him. First, she constrained (persuaded him when he refused) to eat bread and lock in often to refresh himself as long as he passed by. Then, the big matter - "Let us build him a place on the wall that when he visits he can go therein."

Elisha never initiated anything. Elisha never whispered anything to anyone. If he ever spoke to anyone, that would be God that he prayed to. He probably only sent letters to heaven to intervene in his constant weariness as he journeyed. Then, heaven heard and sent an answer. An answer in a wealthy woman who would refuse to be rejected. She persuaded Elisha until he ate her food. You could see she really wanted to part with that food. It was coming willingly from her. And then after perceiving that this is a holy man of God which passes by them continually, she took it further. They built a place for Elisha. As in, they camped in Elisha for themselves. They were thinking of him. Look at how that woman puts it. 

II Kings 4:10, KJV

"Let us make a little chamber, I pray thee, on the wall; and let us set for him there a bed, and a table, and a stool, and a candlestick: and it shall be, when he cometh to us, that he shall turn in thither."

Look, God will begin to raise people who'll begin to think about you. They'll not only think, they'll decide what to do for you. Their thinking of welfare (their thinking of good and not of evil) will birth favour that will touch you. 

Elisha enjoyed that on his consistent and daily walk with God. In His Christian service and ministry, God remembers him and gave him those who said, "let us build for him a place and put in it a bed, a table, a stool and a candlestick that he may turn in thither."

Elisha got a fully furnished room in someone's house. He never paid rent. You can have that experience you know. You can live in a fully furnished room or house without rent. I've had it on campus before. A senior student ahead of me paid my house rent and left his room as it was for me. I just came to occupy it. He only went with his books . The many ties that I met there are still what I'm using till date. 

God is shifting a place for someone in people's hearts. Do you travel often to a location and in need of a place befitting ministry or what you're there to do? God can mandate men to say, "Let us make a little chamber for him."

The ultimate is this, wherever you go, you shall be accepted. Someone is waiting there to receive you. They'll lodge you and treat you like their own. You don't have to have known them before. God will just give you a spot in their hearts and so shall your experience and mine be in 2026. For us ministers of the gospel, our needs will be met without begging and crying to people. Our humanness shall not be discovered before we are provided for. We won't be mocked or shamed. Rather, we'll be served and serviced by God through those He will sovereignly choose or use by Himself. 

PRAYER: Thank You Lord for all needs met this year and all needs that'll be met next year. Never cornered, I'm grateful.

MORNING WINGS DAILY DEVOTIONAL - 23/12/2025

TUESDAY - 23RD DECEMBER, 2025

MORNING WINGS DAILY DEVOTIONAL - Olusola & Oreoluwa ADEJUMO

CONTAINING YOUR BLESSINGS

II Kings 4:10, KJV

"Let us make a little chamber, I pray thee, on the wall; and let us set for him there a bed, and a table, and a stool, and a candlestick: and it shall be, when he cometh to us, that he shall turn in thither."

It is one thing to decipher or come to the knowledge of the blessings, opportunities or blessers to contain; it's another thing to know how to contain them. This Shunammite woman says, "Behold now, I perceive that this is an holy man of God, which passeth by us continually" (II Kings 4:9, KJV). 

She could recognize a missed blessing/person so far. She could mark for what it is who Elisha is and should be unto them later on. Subtly, she could see that Elisha would herald and bring blessings into their lives. This eventually happens when through Elisha's ministration she conceives and births a male child. However, before all that happened, she had to devise a means on how to "trap" Elisha and whatsoever blessings he might bring in his wings. Thinking of having Elisha stay more around and not be a blessing that merely touches the ground and goes, she said this. 

II Kings 4:10, KJV

"Let us make a little chamber, I pray thee, on the wall; and let us set for him there a bed, and a table, and a stool, and a candlestick: and it shall be, when he cometh to us, that he shall turn in thither."

First, she acknowledged Elisha is "a holy man of God which has been passing by them continually." We know what a holy man of God carries and has the capacity to discharge as God's representative on earth. That woman knows that a lot of benefits or return benefits will come from "containing" or "trapping" Elisha instead of just allowing him to pass or range by continually. Like rain water, Elisha must be harvested and collected if they'll ever benefit from his crossing their paths. 

Ask yourself, "who has been passing by me continually without my recognizing them for who they are let alone devising how to benefit or take ministration from them?" Your spouse could have been passing by you continually. As a matter of fact, you could have interacted with your wife a number of times without perceiving or seeing beyond the ordinary that they should be contained. This woman left that stage of not knowing what to do after perceiving. She perceived and acted. May you have that wisdom in Year 2026 and onward. 

She immediately proposed what they should do. "Let us build a little room by the wall and furnish it that he might turn there when he visits." Another Bible portion confirms that when it says, "And it fell on a day, that he came thither, and he turned into the chamber, and lay there" (II Kings 4:11, KJV). 

This verse confirms the success of her plan. She looked for means to "collect" and have Elisha for themselves on a more permanent and lasting basis and she did it. Her plan was a success. The man of God found a resting place with them and thinking of all their sacrifices releases God's decree over them to them. 

God wants you to be this wise also. The blessing that will bless you is actually the one that you convert. Without you converting it and making it yours, it may not bless you. It surprises me that Elisha didn't bless this woman or her family until they had taken her in as a resident (II Kings 4:12-13). 

There are blessings untapped in your life because there are acts untapped as well. There are acts that are means to laying claim to certain blessings. That's what this woman did. She came to a point of realization where she had to stiff her ignorance, recognize her blesser and take a step to have him for herself and family. 

This is how you should desire God's presence in Year 2026. God's presence should abide with you and in your house. It should not be something that comes, passes by and goes. You must rather have a steady supply of God's presence. God Himself should not only reside in your physical dwelling or tabernacle but in your life through constant fellowship and obedience with Him. You must learn how to bring Him down and have Him remain with you. Coming once in a while is not enough. Constant fellowship is what matters. 

Are you devising at all means to retain the Holy Spirit permanently and continually in your life? This woman built a place for Elisha, in order to have him. What are you removing from your life that have been instruments of grief to the Holy Spirit and what are you cultivating to welcome and retain His presence? May God teach you how to contain blessers and blessings in your life. 

PRAYER: Lord, I receive wisdom on how to retain blessers and blessings in 2026. I am not ignorant of how to operate what carries my blessing. I will open to the right people and be shut to the wrong. I receive operational discernment.

WHEN YOUR LIFE DEPENDS ON UNDERSTANDING AND QUICK UNDERSTANDING 

John 5:3, KJV

"In these lay a great multitude of impotent folk, of blind, halt, withered, waiting for the moving of the water."

When your life depends on understanding and quick understanding, you cannot be sluggish. There's a place where not having understanding or peaking in your moment of revelation on time may cost you. I started on that yesterday and you saw those who would be taken away because they had late understanding or didn't have at all. Those are the sets and myriads of people who cannot foresee the evil let alone prepare an action plan against it.

Today's reading emphasizes that as we visit the community of the invalids. The Bible says, "in these lay a great multitude of impotent folk..." Then it goes on to mention them - "of blind, halt, withered waiting for the moving of the water."

They were waiting for the moving of the water but what if the water is moved and they don't move. Obviously you know the consequence. They'll pay a big penalty for missing their chance. 

Now that they know that their healing depends on seeing the troubled water and entering it at once, all stays alert. Irrespective of the businesses and activities on going around them, they prep themselves for one thing - to understand when the water has been stirred so as to fall into it. The Bible says this. 

John 5:4, KJV

"For an angel went down at a certain season into the pool, and troubled the water: whosoever then first after the troubling of the water stepped in was made whole of whatsoever disease he had."

Merely reading this verse, you know what danger awaits those who will not understand or have quick understanding as to whether the water has been stirred. When the water is stirred, there's clearly a physical manifestation. An obvious dramatic rousing of the water that can be heard and be visibly seen. What they wait for is the troubling in that way. The angel might come and might have gone but you get left behind if you don't know the water has been stirred. 

Once the water is stirred, a race, struggle and unrepentant competition begins towards the pool. The question is who will get in first. Getting in first not only depends on how you're bodily enhanced to race but also on quick understanding. 

"Did you know that the water has been stirred? Can you see, hear or hear it immediately reported or shouted that the water has been troubled?" If you cannot decipher, your case gets reserved for another day. That another day is what nobody knows since that place only says, "an angel goes down at a particular season to stir the water."

Except that season is consistent and has been memorized, you cannot plan for a visitation. And if that's true, you still have people to contend with. This event therefore shows you cannot sleep on it because a snake is underneath. You have to be active - awake and aware. Without that, your healing gets postponed.

I pray for you, you won't be left behind. There's a time when action is effective according to this passage. That's falling into the water ahead of anyone as soon as it is stirred. Any other slapping of the water after the first contact, nothing gets achieved. That peaks how important quick understanding is in our world. Have you heard, "the slots are few" before? If it's few, it means only with quick understanding and early disclosure could you take it. Late comers will meet nothing. Where you should not be left behind, you won't. You will be counted worthy and accounted among the successful because of quick understanding. Onward, you will react on time. You will strike the iron while it is hot. You will fall into the pool as soon as it is stirred. 

PRAYER/CONFESSION: I am not redundant. I have quick understanding in this life. I understand times and seasons and what I do fit times and seasons.

MORNING WINGS DAILY DEVOTIONAL - Olusola & Oreoluwa ADEJUMO

YOUR MOMENT OF UNDERSTANDING!

II Kings 4:9, KJV

"And she said unto her husband, Behold now, I perceive that this is an holy man of God, which passeth by us continually."

You will enter into a moment that will be your moment of revelation. It is called your moment of understanding. 

Clarity can never be toiled with in life. Your life and daily success relies heavily on it. That's why I'm praying for you that you will enter into your moment of understanding at critical times when it is needed. 

When there's no moment of understanding, business continues as usual. When there's no moment of understanding, behavior doesn't change. When there's no moment of understanding, people cannot stiff losses or contain leakages. Why? It will not be obvious to them that something is wrong. But once the Holy Spirit speaks or peaks and they have insight, perception or in-road into something that has remained shrouded all this while, then light will answer and they'll agree, giving a nod. 

May you enter into your moment of understanding. I declare, let veils be lifted and torn if necessary. Let darkness be dispersed. Let light enter and let certainty be established in your heart. 

This Shunammite woman's saying has become a big river in my heart. It is still flowing. She says to her husband, "Behold now, I perceive that this is an holy man of God, which passeth by us continually."

"Behold", means "see!" She was saying in essence, pay attention. This is a holy man of God that has been passing by us all this while. But significantly beyond all that is how she hinted how she knew. She said, "I perceive that this is a holy man of God..."

How many of you remember that it wasn't the first time Elisha and this woman were meeting? Nothing was different to her on all those occasions they had met earlier. Meanwhile, on this particular occasion, she exclaimed, "I perceive that this is a holy man of God..." That day, she resolved and published her evidence!

That was her moment of understanding. The quicker you understand; the quicker you come to the knowledge of certain life's truths, facts and hacks. If you always understand late, others who understood earlier would have carried many steps and achieved dimensional results ahead of you. As a matter of fact, there's a place where late understanding can be detrimental to your life. How? The Bible says, "The prudent man foresees the evil and he hides himself but the simple pass on and are punished" (Prov.22:3). if you're not of quick understanding, the evil would not have been earlier sighted. It will just come and weed you off like that. Like a flood, you will have no preparation against it. 

That's why it's my prayer for you that God will specially baptize you with quick understanding going forward into this new year - 2026. When you operate with quick understanding, when others are still in Egypt, you'll be in Canaan. When others are still slaving it out under sin, you'll be ruled by righteousness, bringing forth your fruits as a young man or woman and getting pruned to bring forth more (John 15:2). 

All these are tied to quick understanding - having a revelation or perception of what should be done and doing it. When you do, you'll have the benefits that follow. How many of you observed that Elisha didn't prophesy or pray for the Shunammite on having a child until after her moment of understanding which led to Elisha's being brought under their roof as a resident?

It was then Elisha now said, "call this Shunammite. She has gone through a lot in taking care of us. What can we do for her?" (II Kings 4:12-13).

This woman herself confessed that they've been missing their blessing hidden in Elisha who has only been stopping by and progressing on his way. But that changed with her moment of understanding that peaked. Their action immediately changed and they sought how to build a place for Elisha in order to contain him. You see, once understanding hits you, you'll take a step differently. As a matter of fact, you'll shock a lot of people. They'll wonder why you're doing what you're doing. You know people could have asked that family why they're building an upper room. They never had any plan to do that until their moment of understanding hit. It hits and we see to what end the sacrifice they made for Elisha led to. Onward into 2026, you will not be deprived of understanding. You will perceive for a very quick action. You will not be caught unawares. You will not stay oblivious of life changing events and actions. Rather, you will be in the know because you'll have the right knowledge. So shall it be. 

PRAYER/CONFESSION: Revelation is mine! I enter into my moment of understanding. I peak and I know. Nothing catches me unawares in 2026. I perceive and I act!
