When
the Lord enters a life, a situation or a place ,His presence is felt
instantly . Psalm 16 vs 11 says You will show me the path of life:
in thy presence is fullness of joy , at thy right hand there are
pleasures forever more . The Most High God needs no introduction when
He enters into any life or a challenge, Exodus 15 vs 8 says and with
the blast of Your nostrils the waters were gathered together ; the
floods stood upright like a heap; The depths congealed in the heart
of the sea.
When
He enters , a failure becomes a success. It is a good thing to be
successful ,Proverbs 13 vs 19 says a desire accomplished is sweet to
the soul . If a desire accomplished is sweet to the soul then we know
that a desire unaccomplished ( failure) is bitter to the soul .A
typical example of a failure was Peter . No matter how hard he tried
he had nothing to show for his efforts . He fished all night and
caught absolutely nothing in Luke 5 vs 1 -7 . No matter how hard he
tried it was as if he was not making any efforts at all, I mean what
is the difference between a fisherman who fished all night and caught
nothing and a fisherman who slept all night, they both have the same
results which is zero fish . The King of Kings entered his boats and
there was a complete turn around. Peter who was bitter suddenly began
to grin when he let down his net and caught so much fishes that the
nets began to break.
Joseph
was another man who failed despite his credentials and CV. Joseph had
the looks,the charisma and the brain. He was visionary leader with
incredible foresight ,at a tender age he began to see what others
could not see. He began to see the sun and moon bowing down to him –
Genesis 37 vs 5-10 . He had excellent management skills, Potiphar
must have noticed some talents in the life of Joseph before making
him the overseer of his house -Genesis 39 vs 3-5 .Despite his resume,
he ended up in the prison. Failure does not respect qualifications or
grammar ,if it enters into a life that individual will go down.
Failure had taken permanent residence in the life of Joseph but the
Lord of the whole universe came into his situation and his story
change. He became a prime minister in Egypt without campaign or
election -Genesis 41 vs 14-40 .
When
He enters , weakness turns to strength .Psalm 18 vs 2 calls Him our
Strength in whom we trust, Psalm 46 vs 1 says God is our refuge and
strength , A very present help in trouble. Isaiah 40 vs 31-32 says
God renews the strength of those who wait on Him. When there is
strength a man can do a lot for example Leviticus 26 vs 8 says five
men will chase a hundred and a hundred will put then thousand to
flight ,Joshua 23 vs 10 says one man of you shall chase a thousand.
The book of Leviticus 26 vs 6 says you will chase your enemies and
they shall fall by the sword before you. Only a strong man can chase
his enemies . The lame man in Acts 3 vs 1-12 had so many enemies like
poverty,lack,shame ,stagnancy, because he was weak in his feet and
ankle bones there was nothing he could do about it. He could not get
a proper job to deal with poverty in his life so he resulted to
begging for alms. On a day like this , the Lord decided to pay Him a
visit. Immediately the representative of the Most High God (Peter)
grabbed him by the arm, strength came and He began to walk and dance
. He could not chase all his enemies.
When
He enters chronic illness turns to perfect health. Exodus 15 vs 26
calls Him Jehovah Rapha – The Lord our healer. In Mark 2 vs 1-11 ,
four men carried their friends to Jesus but could not get to were
Jesus was because of the crowd. They decided to uncovered the roof
and let down the bed on which the man was lying. Jesus forgave his
sins and told him to take up his bed and go home. Immediately this
fellow stood and began to walk. John 5 vs 1-16 talks about a man by
the pool of Bethesda who had infirmity for thirty-eight years .This
man's infirmity defiled medical science that, was why he took
residence at the porch waiting for an opportunity to jump into the
pool when the angel of the stirs the water. Immediately Jesus enter
his health, he was healed instantly .
Lack
becomes abundance when He enters. Genesis 20 vs 13-14 calls Him
Jehovah Jireh ( the Lord will provide)The people of Samaria lacked in
every area or their life because they were besieged by the King of
Syria- 2 Kings 6 vs 24. This siege led to a great famine , it was so
bad that only the rich could afford bird droppings while the poor had
no other choice than to eat their dead children. They cried to the
Lord and He answered. Within 24 hours they moved from absolute lack
to extreme wealth . The wife of the sons of prophet in Kings 4 vs
1-11 got into debt because of lack . The creditors knew that she
could not afford to pay her debts because she was experiencing first
class lack so they decided to take her sons and sell them to raise
cash. She ran to Elisha the man of God who gave her a simple
instruction . She went and borrow vessels and did as she was told. By
the time she knew it her house was filled with several vessels of
oil. The little jar oil had multiplied in several vessels of oil .
Death
becomes life when He enters .According to John 11 vs 25 ,Jesus is the
resurrection and the life . Isaiah 42 vs 5 says the Most High gives
breath to the people on earth and spirit to those that walk on it.
Revelations 1 vs 18 says He holds the key to life and death. Because
He holds the keys to life and death ,He decides what dies and what
lives .Matthew 3 vs 9 says He could bring children out of stones. The
womb of Sarah was dead as a stone. Romans 4 vs 19 says Abraham's body
was a good as dead- since he was about a hundred years old – and
that the womb of Sarah was also dead. After the Lord's visit in
Genesis 18 vs 1-15 , the bodies of Abraham and Sarah came alive . Out
of a womb that was considered dead came a bouncing baby boy. Sarah
became nursing mother at the age of ninety. J
Jesus
went to Nain with His disciples in Luke 7 vs 11-17. On getting to the
gate, He saw a group of people going to bury a young man , the only
son his mother and she was a widow. When Jesus saw the mother , He
was moved with compassion and He told the crying mother not to sweep.
He touched the coffin of the boy and told him to wake up and
immediately the boy stood and began to speak. The waters of Jericho
was bad and the ground was barren- 2 Kings 2 vs 19-22 . The water
brought death and bareness to everything around it. The men of the
city reported this to Elisha (man of God) . He asked them to bring a
new bowl with some salts and poured it at the source of the water.
The water became healed seized to cause death but life.
The
Most High God is so big when He passes , He can not go unnoticed. It
will be impossible not to notice the One whose arms are everlasting –
Deuteronomy 33 vs 27 .His legs are so long the bible says He sits in
heaven and makes earth is footstool-Isaiah 66 vs 1. His ears are so
big that He hears when the whole world is praying at the same time.
His eyes are so big they run to and fro throughout the whole earth-1
Chronicles 16 vs 9. According to Exodus 15 vs 8 , the blast of His
nostrils are powerful enough to part a sea.
He
is not only big but very powerful .Jesus calls Him Power in Mark 14
vs 62. David says in Psalm 62 vs 11 God has spoken once ,twice I have
heard this: Power belongs to God. Psalm 33 vs 8-9 says let all the
earth fear the Lord; Let all the inhabitants of the world stand in
awe of Him , for He spoke, and it was done; He commanded , and it
stood fast. He is so powerful fire travels before Him to consume His
enemies – Psalm 97 vs 3.Psalms 68 vs 1 says when He arises His
enemies are scattered and those who him flee before Him. It is
impossible for a God like this to enter your life and your enemies
will not be roasted. It is impossible to have such a God in your life
and one manager or boss will withhold your promotion or bully you. No
one can withstand Him. Your challenges can not stand Him. Psalms 50
vs 3 says our God comes and will not be silent, a fire devours around
him, and around him a tempest rages. Your mountains can not stand the
One who smoke rose from His nostrils; consuming fire came from His
mouth , burning coals blazed out of it .
If
you can get Him into that matter then consider it resolved. The only
problem is moving Him into the situation. It is not an easy to invite
earthly kings and queens into our houses. The presidents of the world don’t
just go to anywhere ,anyhow . You don’t see them everyday on TV
chatting and talking , you don’t see them every where . They don’t
attend every parties, they only go to special functions . If the
Kings of this world are like that how much more the King of Kings .
To move Him, requires going extra miles . For example to get Him to
fight on our behalf we have to really praise Him. When we talk of
praises , we are not talking of the 20 minutes praise and worship .
We are talking of real praise not thank you Jesus four times. Praises
move Him a lot because He loves people with a heart of gratitude. In
Acts 16 vs 25-26 , Paul and Silas began to sing praises to Him and He
caused an earthquake . The chains on every prisoner fell .
A
Life of righteousness moves Him. Job was a man whose life moved God,
Job 1 vs 1 says the man was blameless and upright, one who feared and
shunned evil. God blessed him until he became the greatest man of
all the people of east- Job 1 vs 3. The bible said in Daniel 1 vs 8
that Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile with the
portion of the Kings meal. Daniel decided not to defile himself and
keep himself pure for His maker. Daniel 1 vs 17 says as for these
young men, God gave them knowledge and skill in all literature and
wisdom and Daniel had understanding in all visions and dreams.
Obedience
also moves him . Isaiah 1 vs 19 says if you are willing and obedient
you shall eat the good of the land. Exodus 15 vs 26 says and said, if
you will diligently hearken to the voice of the Lord your God, and
will that which is right in his sight, and will give ear to his
commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put non of these
diseases upon you, which I brought upon the Egyptians: for I am the
Lord that heals you. Jeremiah 7 vs 23 says but I gave them this
command: Obey me , and I will be your God and you will be my people.
Walk in all the ways I command you , that it may go well with you.
Our earthly parents dislike children who don’t obey them , how much
the our Father in heaven. When He says pay tithe , pay it without
question. When He says forgive , forgive because if choose not
forgive we are disobeying Him. When He says Love your neighbor as
your self do that . When He says Honors your father and your mother
so that your days will be long ,just do it. When we choose not to
obey Him , we are rebelling against Him.1 Samuel 15 vs 23 says
rebellion Is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as
iniquity and idolatry.
If
we are living In sin , it will be impossible to move Him because He
is too holy. He can not come near anything unholy .It will might
impossible for anyone who is yet to give his life to Christ to
actually move Him to . John 14 vs 6 says Jesus said to him' I am the way,
the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.
Jesus said in John 10 s 30 that I and the Father are one. Matthew 10
vs 40 says He who receives Jesus receives the One who sent Jesus
which is the Most High God. If you have Jesus, you have the Most High
God.
The
bible said in Romans 3 vs 23 that for all have sinned and fall short
of the glory of God. Romans 6 s 23 says For the wages of sin is
death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
The gift was explained in John 3 vs 16 , For God so loved the world
that He gave His only begotten son that whoever believes in Him
should not perish but have everlasting life. What shall we do to be
save ? The bible says in Romans 10vs 9 that if you confess with your
mouth , Jesus is Lord , and believe in
your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. Romans 10 vs 10 – For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with our mouth that you confess and are saved.
