Open Heavens 2012-31 October-BECAUSE HE IS INVOLVED



Pst. E.A. Adeboye 31 October

BECAUSE HE IS INVOLVED

Memorise; To the intent that the living may know that the most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will, and setteth up over it the basest of men.  
Daniel 4:17b

Read: Daniel 4:4-8, 17

When you are given a promise, before you believe it or otherwise, you will first consider the character and ability of the one who is making the promise. Basing your expectations on the promise of someone with questionable character or a liar or one who lacks the means is like pouring water into, a basket. Every drop of such expectations will be lost. Who is the one making these great and precious promises to us? It is the One who told Mary, a single lady, "You will have a son without meeting a man", and it was so. We are talking about the One who told Abraham he would have a son at age 100 and it was so. Has He made a seemingly impossible promise to you? As long as you are living righteously and have determined to continue with the Lord, the promise shall surely come to pass.

God has a purpose for everything He does. When He gave Nebuchadnezzar a dream, He kept back the interpretation for His son Daniel to declare. This tells us that God is totally in control of all His messages and revelations. If He wants to keep anyone in the dark concerning a particular revelation, He is free and nobody can query Him. When He gave this dream, it was to establish the fact that no king or kingdom is entirely sovereign. They all dance to His bidding even when He leaves them to do whatever they like. No king ascends the throne of any kingdom without His knowledge or permission, irrespective of their religious standing. God being God can allow something that would destabilise an organised setting just to make way for you and then reorganise the system with you at an advantaged position. That was what He did to Joseph. You may think you are most useless in a situation, but when He steps in, He will suddenly shore up your relevance. This season, the Lord will destabilise organisations and use that to bring you into a place of prominence in Jesus name. God is more than highly dependable.



PRAYER POINT
Pray that believers in your nation will bear fruits of righteousness that will make unbelievers to identify them as the light of the world.
