SEASON OF SCORE-SCORE

Theme:        GOD HAS BEEN PROVOKED TO JEALOUSY                           

Topic:          STAND THOU STILL                                                                (Day 19)

Text:            Josh. 10:

The 21 days journey is about to end (2more days to go) and the consensual testimony is that it has been a great experience. We appreciate the Lord for His abundant grace.

 

The sights and sound of the present day in our nation is that of dread, terror, bloodletting, ambushment, kidnapping, robberies, etc. And this is apparently because “the proverbial rat is having the field day as the cat went on a journey”. The Watchmen (spiritual prosecutors) have relaxed, so the criminal elements are having the field day. We need not wait for the sign of ‘Prophet Elisha’s experience’(2Kgs.6:        ) before we act.

 

The foundations (purposes, basis of being set up) are being destroyed (Ps.11:3) and the God endowed resources of the land meant for the kingdom work are being channeled to waste lands.

 

Politicians are generally after filling their pockets with the national cake and not bothered about the wellbeing of the populace. All arms of the government have shown their gross limitation in managing the nation.

 

Therefore, the only way out is some divine intervention, and this can only come when people that have access to heaven SPEAK.

 

Joshua came to a point where he couldn’t risk delaying the conquest through accepting a national time rhythm. The divine mantle upon him spurred him to step into the divine regulation territory and adjust time rhythm to suit his purpose. He suspended the rotation of the planet earth for some hours until his desire was accomplished (Josh.10:12-14).

 

Samuel brought down rain at an odd season to make a statement to the erring Israelites (1Sam.12:16-19). Elijah spoke and fire came down from the sky and consumed the arrogant (2Kgs.1:5-14). Elisha prayed and disillusioned the soldiers that came to arrest him (2Kgs.6:12-22). The Lord Jesus stilled the storm with the word of His mouth. We are better placed than all the old Testament saints.

 

We have the Spirit of Christ, we can still every storm, and suspend every undesired circumstance. We have the power of life and death in our tongue (Pro.18:21) and we can move a mountain by faith. We can terminate, paralyse, suspend or fertilize any event.
