Seeds Of Destiny For Today 2023 MESSAGE:
Today, many people want to serve and follow God, but they neglect His Word. They want to serve God, but they do not prioritize His Word.
The truth is, you cannot follow God correctly until you follow Him through His Word.
Now, let me give you a practical example of following God through His Word.
In the year 2021, we were preparing to go for a crusade in Jalingo, Taraba State, Nigeria, and suddenly, many things came up in attempts to fight the crusade.
First, we heard that there was a resurgence of the COVID-19 Pandemic which would affect the conduct of open air crusades.
Second, there were spates of terrorist attacks in the north-eastern part of the country around the season of the crusade, and that would affect the meeting.
Third, the crusade date fell on a major holiday of the people of the other religion.
So, we have these three strong reasons why we may not go for that crusade. Then my wife asked me, “Are we still going for the crusade?” and I said, “I’m not sure.”
This was just 48 hours to the crusade, and I decided to pray about it. While praying, God took me to Psalm 24:7-8 which says,
Lift up your heads, O ye gates; and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in. Who is this King of glory? The Lord strong and mighty, the Lord mighty in battle.
And as God brought this Scripture to me, He also whispered to me, “I’m waiting for you there.”
This, to me meant, the place was open and the Lord had already gone ahead.
Wow!
Then the Lord added, “I am the owner of the universe. I can decide to hold my event anywhere and anytime I want.”
Now, to confirm that God went there ahead of us, the crusade ground was filled with people even before opening prayer. That was the first crusade we ever experienced a thing like that.
By the time we were through with the crusade, the people of that land said the last time they had anything like that was when Reinhard Bonnke came there for a crusade which was over ten years earlier.
The point is, I followed God through His Word and we saw the Hand of God.
Beloved, to follow God correctly, you must not undermine His Word.
Remember this: You cannot follow God correctly until you follow Him through His Word.
ASSIGNMENT:
- Ask God to open your eyes to see the treasures of His Word.
- Make up your mind to put God’s Word to practice in your life.
PRAYER: LORD, help me to always hear You clearly from Your Word. I receive the grace to put Your Word to practice, O LORD, in Jesus’ Name.
