SCRIPTURE: I will stand upon my watch, and set me upon the tower, and will watch to see what he will say unto me, and what I shall answer when I am reproved. Habakkuk 2:1.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: There can be no motion without direction.
In life, I have discovered that one key to progress is hearing the Voice of God and running with it. Divine direction is key to destiny fulfilment. People are stagnated in life when they cannot discern what God is saying. There can be no motion without direction.
As a church, we were running three services at a point and the numerical strength of the church seemed not to be improving.
The First Service was filled with people up to the gallery level; the Second Service was filled with people completely all the way from the ground floor to the gallery; then the Third Service was filled with people just halfway of the auditorium. Those were the states of the three services, and they remained like that for a long time.
One day, I was traveling from Abuja to the United Kingdom, and right in the aircraft, God told me, “When you return to Nigeria, start five services; announce five services of grace.”
So, when I returned home, we printed handbills for five services of grace, and I told the church members to invite their friends and loved ones to church.
When the particular Sunday we were to commence the five services of grace arrived, God honoured and backed up His Word with massive crowd turnout. From the first to the fourth service, the auditorium was filled with massive crowd of people to the gallery level, and the Fifth service was also filled with people everywhere except the gallery.
Thus the congregation shifted by almost ten thousand people. We have never recovered from that harvest of crowd as a result of receiving and obeying Divine instruction.
Beloved, always incline your ears to God’s Voice. Know what God is saying per time and obey Him.
Remember this: There can be no motion without direction.
ASSIGNMENTS:
- Ask God to open your ears to hear Him clearly.
- Obey Divine instructions when God speaks to you.
PRAYER: Lord, I ask that You open my ears to hear Your Voice. I receive the grace to receive your instruction per time and to obey them, Lord, in Jesus’ Name.
