Organize the pieces of your life together to get the
whole God is creating, that whole that is filled with the glory of God. The
organization should align with specificity of purpose to enable you focus on
divine direction, have clarity to facilitate divinely backed implementation and
achievement. Beloved, God is making something beautiful, outstanding,
significant, relevant and honorable with your life. Do not give up or give in
for you shall be called sought out, a desirable place. You are the City of God’s
Delight. To be sought out refers to a place or person or something where people
seek because there is something of value in it. The value in this case is the
glory of God bestowed on you by God. What is glory? The dictionary refers to
glory as praise and worship of God, fame, praise or honor given to somebody
because they have achieved something important. It also refers to great beauty,
special cause for pride, respect or pleasure. In the book of Haggai Chapter 2
verse 7, it refers to splendor.
God is taking you somewhere big and higher than
anything you can ever imagine. It is the place of global recognition and
visibility as well as financial Abundance - Isaiah Chapter 54 verses 1 to 5,
Job Chapter 8 verse 7. He is taking you
to a land of prosperity, increase, expansion and fruitfulness. Please see Deuteronomy
Chapter 28 verses 1 to 14. The promises in this Scripture are against the
backdrop of the ones in Deuteronomy Chapter 8 verses 1 to 18, take note of
verses and 7 to 9, For the
LORD thy God bringeth thee into a good land, a land of brooks of water, of
fountains and depths that spring out of valleys and hills; A land of wheat, and
barley, and vines, and fig trees, and pomegranates; a land of oil olive, and
honey; A land wherein thou shalt eat bread without scarceness, thou shalt not
lack any thing in it; a land
whose stones are iron, and out
of whose hills thou mayest dig brass; and Deuteronomy
Chapter 11 verses 8 to 13. A land that God Himself watches over at all times,
waters at the right season and ensures a great harvest. See Psalm Chapter 65
verses 9 to 13, Psalms Chapters 1 and 23, Malachi Chapter 3 verses 10 to 12 and
Leviticus Chapter 26 verse 5.
There is therefore no need to rush. All you need do
is go at His pace, do things the way He would have you do them and trust Him to
meet all the seeming pressing needs that bother you. The prophet Elisha gave
this instruction to the widow of the indebted prophet “Go (move, act) sell the
oil, pay your debts and live on rest”. She was advised by the prophet Elisha to
solve the financial crisis first and then manage what she had left so that she
would not go into debt again. Always go at the pace of the Holy Spirit for that
is when you get it right. Never allow yourself to be stampeded by any one or
circumstances. Haste often produces wrong decisions, actions and counsel.
Therefore
work with available resources to move from point A to B even if your present
available resources include the Word of
God, prayers, faith, prophetic utterances, what you may consider of little
value but is indeed of great value. The
woman had what she thought and referred to as only a jar of oil. She had no
inkling of the economic value and that it could be all she required to get out
of debt.
When God relocated the Israelites to Canaan from
Egypt; a supposedly land of plenty; God took them to a land of abundant natural
resources, well watered, abundant food and abundant mineral resources –
everything that would facilitate wealth so that the Israelites could lend to
the nations and reign over many nations. Beloved, this natural wealth producing
land gave the Israelites an edge over the nations around them as they increased
in wealth. Please see Deuteronomy Chapter 8 verses 6 to 18, 11 verses. The
Israelites worked the land to become wealthy. The land did not throw wealth on
them while they sat thanking God for making them wealthy. They worked the land.
You must be engaged in an income generating activity – Deuteronomy Chapter 28
verses 8 to 12 so that your next stop is your wealthy place. All the people God
called in the Bible and who worked with God had their personal financial
resources. They did not depend on people for financial resources. Moses worked
in Midian when he ran away from his comfy position as one of the princes of
Egypt. He tended the flock of Reuel, the priest of Midian. Though he eventually
married Zipporah, one of Reuel’s daughters, he earned his upkeep as a shepherd. Enough of insufficiency!
It is indeed time for you to emerge. Step it up at
His pace. Divine wealth is your inheritance in Christ Jesus who paid the full
price for you to enjoy sustainable wealth. Divine Wealth Codes as well as other
devotionals on wealth building should not be your regular devotionals. They are
additional spiritual and mental exercises designed to build you up and
strengthen you spiritually as well as equip you to access divine wealth by
believing in God who in turn will help you believe in yourself, help you in
identifying divine seeds in you, help you refine and market them for profit.
Therefore, assign times for regular devotionals with God which should be separate
from what you are already doing with the wealth devotionals and other wealth
building books.
May God who is rich in mercy give you understanding
and help you to create, build and sustain generational wealth in Jesus mighty
name. Shalom.
