Six Decisions That Guarantee Your Manifestation

In Hab. 2:1-3,we see a progressive journey of a God given mandate which we cannot ignore.
Firstly, every mandate is God commanded. If it is not God commanded,it is not of God.
God commanded doesn't mean spectacular. It is supernatural,not necessarily spectacular. For some,it was just a knowing that they will preach the gospel. It came as a vision or a series of visions and dreams for others while some had the Lord Jesus appear to them and tell them what they must do. Basically,(whether yours was spectacular or not) it has to be from God and it must have happened while you were in His presence.
Secondly, God speaks only to men who are in His presence. When He does, it births a vision.
Finally, every vision has a season of incubation before it manifests. This season is a period of much activity. What kind of activity? Activities of obedience-OBEDIENCE TO THE INSTRUCTIONS THAT COME WITH WHAT GOD HAS REVEALED. Instructions are what you receive in the presence of God that enable you work out the manifestation of the vision. VISIONS DON'T JUST HAPPEN,THEY CRYSTALIZE BY OBEDIENCE TO INSTRUCTIONS and the tools with which you work out the manifestation of your mandate is instructions. The instruction you catch in the revelation of your divine mandate is the divine wisdom you have received to manifest destiny (WHAT DID GOD TELL YOU TO DO?-- the mandate instruction.)
Here are six decisions you must make that will help you carry out (and consistently receive fresh instructions per time because your calling is a progressive revelation):
1. Give daily priority to the word (study,reading and meditation).
2. Give daily priority to fellowshipping with the giver of the mandate-- communion with the Holy Spirit (the revealerof truth and divine secrets)
3. Fellowship with the vision and the words of its covenant (your vision will not materialize till it becomes an obsession). As hab 2:2 says,WRITE THE VISION. The words of the covenant are the instructions and assurance you have received of the Lord.
4. Practise! Practise! Practise the vision/mandate. Serve with your gift faithfully (you cannot circumvent the phase of service. Those who did not serve faithfully and impatiently launched out are making a shipwreck oftheir vision because they did not learn all the lessons they needed to learn). Don't substitute your vision with another man's or downplay its standards.
5. Decide to partner with grace. Practise laying a demand on grace and following the leading of God's Spirit in the area of your calling daily.
6. Feed on/invest in materials that will empower you to deliver your mandate excellently. These are: (a) God's word (Col 3:16; 1Tim 4:15-16) (b) Listen to your Father and your mentor(s) (1Cor 4:15-16). (c) Read anointed books (1Tim 4:13,15-16) (d) Build destiny relationships.

Secrets of Divine actions.

This is a sequel to the last post on The Ways of God. I laid some foundations that are necessary to thoroughly understanding this teaching. You can read up THE WAYS OF GOD to catch on. God the Father is the most important revelation the new testament believer must catch. This revelation is the very core of the ministry of Jesus, while he was on earth and today in the lives of believers. The gospel has one objective which is to reveal to us the person and character of the Father. A man may be introduced to a child as being his father but it takes more than an introduction to have a family relationship. The child will only begin to relate well with this person the more the child comes to know this person. My emphasis being on the Word PERSON. I posed some questions in the concluding part of my last post. We will use them as a line to guide us to our destination. God bless you as you undertake this journey of the Word with me. I celebrate you. What drives God's divine actions is wh...

Orbis Unum

We witness a display of man's tendency for a unified system in the Babel episode as recorded in the book of genesis. Here we see man uniting and making himself mighty in a "one world" government. I want to answer two questions that arise from that episode: Was man's crave for a one world government (and that crave is still unsatisfied) an accident? Also, was God's refusal justified? "Orbis Unum" is the latin for "one world" and this has been the direction that world politics has been heading. From the time of Nimrod, to the Pharohes of Egypt, to Nebuchadnezzar, to Dairus, to Alexander the great, to Julius Ceasar, the list is endless. The primary motive that drove the manifestation of their dominion was Orbis Unum. Believe it or not, the Roman Catholic Church joined the party and Islam is about Orbis Unum.Why then is this drive towards a one world system? Understanding this will give insight into the direction that world politics is heading to...

The Owner of the Office knows best.

Earlier this evening I decided to cook for the family. I wanted to prepare a local delicacy popular with the Enugu people of Eastern Nigeria. It is called Okpa. It is a pudding made from the flour of bambara nuts with palm oil, pepper and a little salt. You can add pepper to taste. My son is particularly fond of it. Well, my wife is the manager of the kitchen and the store. She went to church for clean up, leaving me and my boy at home. I decided to give her a helping hand. It was she who organized the store and it was she who really knew where what was kept. I invaded her office with good intentions. But you know how that saying goes that good intentions are not enough. I had never prepared Okpa myself but I have watched her do it several times. I can learn by observation so I knew what to do. I entered into the store and got the flour I used, combining it with the other ingredients and seasoning it to taste. It was going to be delicious and I felt proud of myself. I put it on the ...
