When He enters


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.

Pray this prayer from your heart today!

Dear Jesus , I believe that You died for me and rose again on the third day. I confess I am a sinner. I need your love and forgiveness. Come into my heart . Forgive my sins. I receive Your eternal life. Confirm You love by giving me peace, joy and supernatural love for others, Amen.

Welcome to Christ brethren, Please join a bible believing church.
