TODAY’S DEVOTIONAL (Thursday 11th March 2021)
“Listen to my plans for you, people of Babylonia…..” Jeremiah 50:45 CEV
“I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will guide you with My eye.” Psalm 32:8 NKJV
WELCOME TO THE 70th DAY OF OUR YEAR OF HIGHER HEIGHTS!
What a date and time to be alive. 70 is the number of nations. God is positioning His people across the nations, to preach pray and prophesy until His will for our age and time come to pass.
I remember what the LORD spoke to us on Sunday about the politics in Kenya and the direction He has determined for the nation. I urge you to get the message of the prophecy from the Church office.
I felt strong in Spirit that the shaking and shaping of the nation has begun.
It is important that we take the word and beginning to mark it and not be ignorant when events begin to unfold. The LORD showed us that a new Nation is rising and I saw a lot of politicians walking on slipping grounds; I saw them falling off as it were. I saw the end of an era.
I wondered why the LORD was talking to me about this nation instead of mine. Then I remembered that the scope of every apostolic mantle is the nations. 70 is the code for apostolic mandates and mantles. Please get the entire message. Something is about breaking forth.
This morning God has a word for us!
To start with, let me submit to you that God is Spirit and He created our natural world from the spiritual. He is invisible but created our visible world. Whatever you see naturally was created supernaturally. In simple terms, the supernatural is responsible for the natural.
The supernatural, either good or bad, inject things into the natural world every second, altering things in people’s lives, making things grow or die, making families happy or sad, making business crumble or succeed, making ministries succeed and advance God’s purposes or diminish and fail completely, and etc. The supernatural is responsible for everything natural.
If we can see into the supernatural and allow ourselves to be controlled by God’s supernatural power, we will minimize or completely erase every evil the supernatural of the enemy pours on us.
THE REASON THE ENEMY ATTACK US FROM THE SUPERNATURAL REALM IS BECAUSE IT IS MASTER OVER THE NATURALLY REALM.
Before a man will succeed over you naturally, he has been made to succeed over you supernaturally. Before a man die naturally, he has already been killed supernaturally. Nothing takes place in the naturally if it has not taken place in the supernatural.
That is why the Bible admonishes us to sense the plans of God for our lives and live our lives accordingly. People who walk in divine plans cannot fail. They only fail if they venture into anything that is not part of the plan. They fail in marriages that are not God’s plans for their lives, business that are not God’s plans for their lives, and whatever is not God’s plans for their lives.
Life outside divine plan is the reason for the woes of God’s Children.
It is the reason the enemy succeeds over us, the reason we wail and suffer, the reason we are sick and tired of what we may be doing, the reason we lack sufficient grace from God to keep growing stronger in the things we do. Life outside divine plans for a Child of God is like a fish outside water. It will die and decay.
For instance, any marriage outside divine plans will be full of headaches. It will die and decay living you with the corpse to be taking from man of God to man of God for resurrection. But when you are in God’s plans, there will be no dead or decay.
And if you fail you will rise again because what you call failure is not really failure, it is part of divine plan. Remember Job in the Bible; his affliction was part of God’s plan for his promotion. He got double for all his trouble.
That is why when you experience what may look like failure; suddenly you will see “God’s supernatural grace” moving to bring you out into a much better phase than what it was before the experience.
The righteous indeed will fall seven times but rise again. However, that only happens if he is in divine plan! If you are not in divine plan, you will fall and keep falling and falling until you are no more.
IT PAYS TO LISTEN AND WALK IN DIVINE PLANS. IT PAYS TO BE INSTRUCTED BY LORD ON WHERE TO GO.
The plans of God are “finished events” in the supernatural waiting to be made manifest in the natural. The Bible says “the plans of God shall stand.” Meaning they shall not fail. That is why people who walk in divine plans do not fail. They do not fail because they are walking in finished things of the Spirit.
Our devotional text says, “Listen to my plans for you.” If you listen to God’s plans for you and follow them, your future will be secured. But if you listen to your heart and carve out your own plans for your life, your future is not secured.
Our devotional text also said “I will guide you and teach you to the way you should go.” God’s plans are the way we should go not our ambitions or personal plans. They are the way to go if we will make it in life by God’s definition.
Walking in divine plans is following predetermined and pre-established things in the Spirit realm. It is following things that have been done and completed in the supernatural realm of GOD. As you respond to them and obey the voice of the LORD for your life, you will find yourself bringing them forth in the natural realm.
You may be in a cross road this morning. You may even be in the dark. The enemy may have attacked you yesterday and made you sleep in the pain of that attack. God sent this word to tell you to listen to His plans for your life and follow them meticulously.
Cease listening to whatever may have happened. Start listening to God’s plans for your life. That is where your recovery will come from. That is where your prosperity will flow from. That is where your deliverance is. That is where your expectations will turn into manifestation.
But anything outside God’s plan for your life is a bad investment.
I pray for you today that you cease living your life in what look good and start sensing what looks God and follow. I pray that you recognize the manipulations of Satan to keep you in what is outside divine plan.
I pray that you overcome the warfare that usually breaks out when men step into divine plan. I pray the LORD sharpen your senses to be able to recognize divine plans and follow them.
Sometimes, things happen to cloud our senses not to be able to recognize divine plans. Other times they happen to bring us out of them completely. I want you to understand that the plans of the LORD for your life may come in a package you do not like, but if you stick to them you will save yourself from things that will make you regret all your life.
Whatever we do not like in God’s plan for our life usually disappears within a very short time. That is what makes them good and perfect at the end. The vision will always speak at the end not the beginning.
