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.

The Grace of Our Lord Jesus, the love of God and communion with the Spirit

On the Grace of our Lord, the Father's love and the communion of the Spirit in the life of the Believer. 2Cor 13:14 is a portion of Scripture quoted so often in church that the mention of it brings closing of service or benediction to mind. In this portion of Scripture which indeed is a prayer, is hidden an eternally powerful truth. It is my confidence that the Spirit of God by the will of God will shed light on our spirits as we seek the light of this truth, embrace it and apply it daily in our walk with God. It says "the Grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Love of God and the sweet fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all". What a prayer! First it is seen in this prayer, THE WORD, THE FATHER and THE SPIRIT. Once upon a time, in the beginning of time, there was a convocation and in that meeting, Elohim, was there with The Logos and His Pneuma, and the result was creation. What if there is a creative mystery embedded in this prayer in the life of a believer? What ...

A case for Heavenly Mindedness.

It is often said "do not be so heavenly conscious that you become earthly useless" but I say unto you, the man who is conscious of eternity as he ought cannot and will not be earthly useless. His heart will be set on pleasing God and that means obeying God's every instruction on his life. There is no man who has so lives that turns out useless to his world and generation. Jesus didn't turn out that way nor did the apostles and every other saint whose names we mention and whose works we reference. Their contributions derived from inspiration that flowed from their following God faithfully is the light we now shine for the next generation. This systematic secularization of the church is what is standing between men and their eternal destines on the earth. We complain we do not have devoted men serving God but we preach that men should balance spirituality and secularism. It is not so in God’s word. You cannot serve two masters. You are either following God or you are f...

SEXUAL PURITY

Sex. This three letter word is one of the most talked about subject in the world. In fact, we live in a highly sexualized generation. I have seen bill boards that have pictures of ladies not properly dressed, advertising tooth paste! Movies are not interesting without sex, novels struggle to sell if there is no touch of sex. It is hard these days for young people to live untangled lives, free from the grip and influence of sex. Marriages are not free either as infidelity remains a leading cause of divorce. I read twenty-six different stories today, sad tales of young men who were molested at some point in their life, some were raped. There are also stories of women whose lives carry scars from sexual abuse. The world we live in is sexually charged and there are now all sorts of ways people go about discharging. The journey towards sexual purity begins at gaining a proper understanding of sex. This understanding can only be formed from God's word. This understanding will be built...
